Well, not quite to myself. I have company.
Aaaaaah, it’s school holidays again – and I just love school holidays. The relaxed pace of the days, no morning rushes, no schedules, just the relaxed flow of seemingly endless hours of unstructured freedom. I wonder if Sonny Boy enjoys it half as much as I do. He’s gone to the river with his Dad this afternoon and I have the house to myself. ![]()
(This picture just cracks me up.)
I have been crafting – it’s a rare time when I’m not making something or other. I’ve got some photos of the finished goodies. I had finished more stuff, but Sonny Boy deleted the pictures from the camera before I’d downloaded them – and as that’s the second time it’s happened to the same lot I’m just giving it up as a bad job – and the items don’t live here anymore and it’s just too much hassle to chase them up. Besides, I can take a hint. I have finished some more things since and immediately I downloaded the pictures to the computer.
In the ‘family circle’ magazine there was a knitted section and in it was a child’s hoodie which I have fallen in love with making. So far I’ve made three of them. the third one I improvised and made it into a zipper fronted jacket.
I have started on the fourth and that, too, will be a zipper front.
In the same magazine was a very cute child’s vintage top so I’m going to be casting on for that also – it looks like a quick knit.
The weather here has been quite glum, not much sun shine, but quite muggy. I’ve noticed chemtrailing and then the next day the weather turns overcast. I think the official term is geo engineering, but either way it’s messing with nature and the natural rhythms and I’m not sure that can ever be a good thing.
So due to the not very sunny weather the garden is rather slow going – about the only thing we’ve been picking are the lettuce leaves for salads – the slugs manage to get the strawberries, though I have re-potted a few of them in hanging pots in the front garden.
Lol yep that photo cracked me up as well, lol. He is such a nutter!!
