Yesterday evening Tina went to an open craft evening and she bought me a great pair of earrings. She couldn’t resist them as she knows how ai love bees!
While she was out I thought I should use the sewing machine before I forget how! I have lost interest in most things of late and really need to get out of the doldrums! I had designed and got a piece ready some time ago.
I was up very early as my leg was being troublesome but once it had settled down I was less wobbly and ready to be a bit more active! I was up early enough to watch Tom Daley in the diving final live. I went along early for lunch shopping and after the shopping had been delivered walked down to Missy to get some tee shirts to go with my new trousers. I decided that if I am going to feel fed up with the aches and pains I may at least try and look my best! I did get some so that will be nice when I go to Peterborough at the end of the month.
As I walked through the front garden I was shocked at how bad the main front bed had become, and just had to go out and do some weeding.
While I was working Carol and Sal came over to talk to me. I have been thinking I need to make an appointment to get my hair cut and Carol said she was going to the salon and I could go along now. So I downed tools and went along to see them. Very pleased with the cut as always.
I did then do a bit more to the bed, tidied up and then it was time for lunch.
Took a couple of photos of the sky through windows this evening.
Will finish with an obscure word.

That’s a really nice pair of earrings. They could’ve been made for you being bees. Like the honeycomb pattern too.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a go on the sewing machine. It’s surprising how quickly you can forget how they work. Well in my case it is! The rose came out ok. Bet you were pleased with that.
I wondered how long it would be before you had the urge to get into the gardening again. The front bed did look a bit messy so I can see why you wanted to tackle that one at least. Glad you didn’t go too mad at it though. Certainly does look a lot better in the after picture.
The haircut looks good, as do the new earrings. New clothes as well today. It’s nice to treat yourself now and then. I don’t suppose clothes are really treats, more necessities.
I thought the pic through the window was of a huge cross when I first looked!
Hope you don’t ache this evening after the gardening today?
It was good to feel like being a bit more active, I have had a pretty lazy week, just as well the Olympics was happening as I enjoy watching that.
DeleteThat bed isn’t completely cleared but it has stemmed the tide for a little while, so to speak!
Not feeling too bad at the moment, no worse than usual anyway.
