Morning all. Thanks for brekkie ... Had it in bed. Actually am still in bed, watching the world go past as curtains are pulled open. Molly, my little cat has just joined me making typing very difficult. Have a busy day today. Still have three tutus to finish (before Wednesday) and want to do some fun creative sewing as well. Tomorrow I have four girls staying for the whole weekend so need to sort out some craft ideas for them ....hopefully will have some photos to show later. And Fridays are my walk days. My best friend and I walk every Friday. We start at 10 and head for the nearest coffee shop. Then we head off again making sure there is a cafe in the next stop point at lunch time and again on the return trip make sure there is somewhere for afternoon tea. Usually get home about 3pm. We can walk up to 15 kms some days. She is also a quilter so we share lots of ideas etched. You would think we would run out of things to talk about but we don't. Have a great day everyone.

Home for me too...with another load of days before the end of the term so that's good for the coffers. I had a marvellous day. I just love it.
Coalie!! Those flowers are just awesome...I love them. I agree with holly. You are a real clever clogs.
Yesterday I finished two quilt tops for SCBU and I have decided that I don't like one of them so I will pull it apart and redo it. Will show you pics when they are quilted.

Evening all, sounds like every one had a very busy day.
Lovely flowers coallie, you must confess though that The Book Depository has a great selection of books, and reasonable, specially the free postage.
Jumbo more days to work, that will keep you out of trouble--- sort of.
Change in the Friday diet,Pizza tonight as its grandie #2 Birthday on the 17th of march and she is having some friends to stay this week end to celebrate. Better go and join them.

Will be six if she goes in tonight. I will stay at her house overnight if she goes in. Two grandies being dropped off here at 8am but they are 11 and 13 so will be fine with my mum if I am not home. Then when her three (2, 9, 11) wake up, I will bring them back here. Another 13 year old will be dropped off after lunch. Could be an interesting day.

Twi that will be good to meet with your oncologist...you will be able to clear up any niggles you have. What a lot of chemo coming up, but you've already proved what big balls you've got so we know you will cope...especially with the support of your family...and us too! Chin up old girl. We are all pushing for you.
Talking of pushing...baby getting close bar? How exciting to have two new babies here! We'll all be suffering with all the excitement. What's everyone up to tonight?

Get up! It's the weekend. Hooray. I'll have mine in bed when you get up thanks. Weak coffee with milk and no sugar and a couple of pieces of toast. Don't trip over the cats on your way in though. See you when you get here.

jumbobon - 2013-03-09 07:16:00
41393

Okay...you are all late! Hot drinks and toast is ready and waiting. Sorry there's no cooked breakfast this morning! I left the gas on low last week. Fortunately the hob has a glass lid which covers it when it is not in use. I always put it down...and there are a few nice hacks that sit on top of it. One of them is a plastic cookie jar that I bought in the 60's when we were at teacher's college, so it has many happy memories. When we came home from Wellington last Sunday the bottom of the cookie jar was melted onto the glass lid. Whew! How bad could that have been? So no more cooked breakfasts here!!!

jumbobon - 2013-03-09 08:39:00
