Walking

On Sunday morning I took myself off for a walk round Ferry Meadows. I had a lovely walk and met a lot of people but most important of all I road-tested my earmuffs. They worked perfectly - I had cosy little ears and listened to my music. 

I managed to get a photo of a basking squirrel, obviously making the best of the sunshine. 


On Sunday afternoon I spent a few minutes turning some of the Xmas cards into gift tags ready for next year. What's the betting that when I need them I can't find them? I might give them to Neil to look after.


Monday I went to Grafham Water for a walk. I walked right out past the dam and only came back because it started to rain and I didn't want to be stuck the other side in the middle of a downpour. I could have walked for miles.



Maybe I will go back at the weekend and walk all the way round but then again it might be cold and I'll decide to stay in. Neil has plans for Sunday so I may have one of those rare days when I'm on my own, as long as the children don't read this.



There has been some making going on but I haven't taken any pictures so I'll post about them later in the week.

Sunday Update

We've had some busy days and some quiet days at work this week due to the weather. The quiet days though gave us a chance to get quite a lot of housekeeping done. We had some fabric deliveries this week so yesterday we had a move around and put out the new fabrics. These are some of my favourites.





I used a dresden plate to make this cushion, it's a sample ready for when I next have to demonstrate that particular template on Create and Craft. It's nice to be ahead for once.



This afternoon I went to Grafham Water for a walk. I know it was trying to snow but I wasn't the only one there, it was surprisingly busy.

These geese were happy to be out in it.

Last night we had this little fella to stay. He was much easier to look after this time but I still had to cuddle him all night. Well someones got to even if it is a tough job.
