Sunday
Took a half day at work because we have family coming up from down south for a funeral and I needed to organise beds and food for them all. Took the dog a walk after all the organising was done, the sun may have been out but it was freezing. The jacket ended up zipped all the way up and the hands were stuffed in the pockets.
Monday
A family funeral. RIP Uncle Vic.
Tuesday
When in at daughters I glanced up at the town clock on the way out the door, and then did a double take. The clock has been put back an hour already. This has DD1 confused as she uses it as her kitchen clock.
Wednesday
Had a notion for a Chinese, so as it was dry decided to walk the dog and then nip in and get one. Sadly the one we normally use, which is the nicest and handy with being right next to the bypass was shut so had to divert a few miles across town to a different one.
Thursday
Bob decided he was staying the night, hopefully this will become a regular thing again. DD1 dropped him off and the other three came to play as well for a while. Daughter is making bed time a bit later every night this week ready for the clock change at the weekend.
Finished the first of Dinky's cross stitches for her quilt. Just got the waste canvas to take out.
Friday
Bob came for a walk with us. Was a lovely afternoon and I only had on my body warmer, no jacket was needed. Some beautiful colours along the river walk.
Saturday
I hunted out the hama beads as I have an idea to use some of them. The children use to use them but haven't in a long while so pointless them sitting going to waste. Watch this space, if I can get the ideas to work I will share some of my creations with you.
Love the first photo of Lily. Sorry to hear about your uncle, he looks a real character! That's very confusing that the town clock was altered early.
ReplyDeleteshe was enjoying scrambling over the piles of rocks.
DeleteSorry to hear about your Uncle. The Hama bead idea sounds interesting and love your new cross stitch #366
ReplyDeletespent 2 hrs today sorting out the colours, just trying to work out if it actually worth while.
DeleteQuite a change in weather this week for you - it's getting colder here. Hope you gave your Uncle a good send off xx You've reminded me to put my clocks back tonight - thank you!
ReplyDeleteIt was a very nice send off. Yes need to put my own back too.
Deletesorry to hear about your uncle vic. I hate the clocks going back an hour in the UK, it means we're now 4 hours behind in Dubai and it really cuts down our real time to communicate with family and friends. I really enjoyed the cooler weather on my trip last week, it was so nice to wear boots and a coat
ReplyDeleteYes I much prefer the cooler weather and would rather put on a coat then stifle in the heat.
DeleteSorry to hear about your uncle. Will be interested to see what you make from hama beads as we have some gathering dust too.
ReplyDeleteI will send you some pictures on pm cos if it works then some will be surprises for Christmas.
Deleteso sorry about your Uncle Elaine, I hope the funeral went aswell as it can. The walk with Bob looks lovely - the weather has been so kind tho us these last few weeks, i will miss it! I hate the cooks changing - now its dark too early :( x
