Then we went into Art and Soul and had a good browse. I bought a crazy plant pot and a bar of handmade soap. I took one closer pic as there are actually hols for the windows, will have to be careful when I am watering!
We went into Dunelm and I bought some quilter stuff and material with the winnings from the scratch cards.
Nearly forgot to post the picture of me in my new funky dungarees from Anya, I love them!
On the way home we stopped at lights and I managed to get a photo of this pretty precarious chimney breast!
We had shopped in Bay Tree Interiors, I did buy a present for later in the year and some nice picture frames ready for if I ever get around to painting some presents. Tina bought a fabulous stand, and we both have vouchers to spend in the next couple of weeks.
We had a bit of lunch at Cherry Lane garden centre, where I found some plant based rice and a bird bath!
That is actually quite flimsy so we put pebbles in the column to give it a bit of weight.
I was beginning to feel excessively tired and my arm was aching a bit more so sat and relaxed. Pandora jumped on me nd I only had the phone nearby and the tv was turned off at the plug! So we chilled for a little while.
The stress came with finding my sister had been taken into hospital for an X-ray and when I spoke to my niece today she hadn’t heard anything and could get any sense from phone calls etc. so I took over! After half an hour or so getting nowhere Tina came nd sounded a bit more forthright. We eventually found she was still in A & E in the emergency treatment department but was due to be moved to a ward. I have spent an hour or so again this evening nd have established that she is now on a ward, but have been unable to talk to anyone. But at least I have been able to tell my niece that she is now on a ward. Not feeling too lively so will probably get to bed soon.
What a day! Lots of nice shopping followed by not so nice tracking down Margherita!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute dog……..
I really like the pot you bought. It very you. Getting the quilting stuff with your winnings was a good idea too. You’d have only squandered it on cake, chocolate and wine otherwise 😊 The stand that Tina bought is nice. Is it designed to separate Darren into his own little corner?
You really did go to town on the shopping today, literally. The bird bath looks good. Should get well used.
I used to get the Konjac based rice and pasta. It’s ok if you wash it well before you use it, as it can smell a bit weird. Very low in calories though.
After hectic shopping you needed some time in the chair to relax, and Pandora obviously thought so too.
Shame such a pleasant day was spoiled by getting the news about Margherita. Very stressful making all those calls. But at least it helped Rose relax a little by knowing her mum wasn’t stuck on a trolly in a corridor somewhere! Hopefully she won’t be in there too long.
While I think of it, you look good in the dungarees.
Has seemed like a long day, but a good morning even if it did tire me out. Early night I think and maybe read a bit of Run Rose Run!
