Z had to take Smalls into town to see the optometrist; we were a couple of months overdue at this point. Now Smalls, they love some McDonalds, and we’d not had any in a year (yanno, ’cause Coronavirus). Z had gotten his head around using the app and not having to deal with the drive-through, so that went smoothly. And,… Read more »

So yeah, was pleased today, ’cause I was to the point where I could focus on catching up the accounts I had to use the alternative login for (aka, the one I don’t like and avoid using). I went to retrieve it from the ‘safe place’ where I kept it… and it wasn’t there. Anyways, one thing led to another,… Read more »

There is more stemmage the other side of the cross-stitch, but I’m happy enough with the amount of dark and medium olive applied on this half to move on to light olive. There is loads yet to do, but at least I feel like it’s getting somewhere. I also feel like I’m getting somewhere with work, slova Bogu. I’ve got most… Read more »

While there is still so very much to go in regards to getting my area organised, I feel like I’ve made a few good steps in the right direction. I’ve been doing like, -a- tiny thing at a time, but those tiny things do add up eventually. Having moved the stuff I use the most into my purple box is… Read more »

I managed to make a little start on moving stuff around and clearing some junk out. I grumbled how much I hate adulting ’cause I had to throw out a pair of shoes I love… but that are no longer waterproof. It all works towards a happy end though, hopefully. As to crochet suddenly rejoining my other on-the-goes… Mum saw… Read more »

The weather was nice today, so we decided to go have a little wander around the cemetery. Mum cracked me up; there were lots of cars parked up for both cemetery and river, and she said it was like ‘the Costa del Sol’. Yes, them overcast chilly Costa days, ha ha. But for Britain, it was perfect. ((I also found… Read more »

It took much longer than I thought it would, but I managed to finally get the threads carded for the project. I had to look up several of the colours to try and make matches, and do that squinting thing where like, some of the colours are nearly frikkin’ identical, so. There’s a degree of ‘close enough’ to it, ha… Read more »

While I thoroughly do not subscribe to the whole children being an extention of their parents, or clones, or anything like that… it amuses me when I take a photo, and we look like ourselves, but also where the similarities are. Smaller went with me to the postbox, and she remembered our last trip and taking photos, so wanted to… Read more »

I spotted this as we were leaving after getting our Covid vaccines; I know that the bag isn’t actually blocking the right of way, but as it was right under the sign… well. Y’all know me, I can’t resist amusing things like this. But yes, dose one in the bag! Arm! Whatever! It was both Z and I, and it… Read more »

I noticed yesterday that my heart stockpile was running low. I suspect I’ve knocked a bunch off of their hook and they’ve hidden themselves amongst the detritus on my desk… but eh. I challenged myself to take the last of the yarn on the skein for restock, and ended up with 14 hearts. I’ve got the first eight beribboned, so… Read more »
