Friday 9 May 2014

Ok.... i know i said every day, but when i have finished my art doodle for a day, and done all the other things there is very little time left, plus i still think that i have had very little to offer in the way of anything nice to read. ( though somehow i guess that s not a real excuse since i used to do this everyday, but i have done my hand journal )
The past week has seen me trying to keep up with my organisation skills ( not very well) fighting off asthma attacks ( due to pollens and paint) and trying to remember where i have left my gloves for washing up. After looking for them for ages it seems , one has turned up on the living rooms window... the other is still missing in action, or glove napped by someone.  ( i guess that i will just have to get some new ones again)
The weather has not made up its mind what it wants to do at the moment, one moment heavy showers and the next it is sunshine, but always with a nice breeze that will get the washing dry quicker than any tumble dryer if i pay attention and don't leave it in to many showers.
My grumpy cat project  is closer to being cut out , but i am trying to pick a day when i don't feel to stressed so i do not spoil the fabric.... and the leather hood  that i also decided to make is beginning to form , i just need to cut a pattern out of news paper and then i will be the proud owner of one red gimp hood when it is all stitched together. ( these two projects came together when Master mentioned in passing that he would like a grumpy cat to sit on his computer , for some reason He seems to like this miserable looking animal, and so i decided to make one from fleece and fill it with beans so it was pose able , and the red hood came about because i felt i got a bargain from a car boot market when i got a carrier bag overflowing with red leather off cuts for a minimal amount of money.  i have to make something out of it. )
Anyhow have a good Friday

hugs










 Today has seen a very sore and tired me after trying to do so much in the last few days, and being told to rest by Himself because my legs have been so painful. It got to the stage that by tea time my knee kept locking and i was worrying . Master did not say a word of i told you so to me but instead ran me a hot bath and heated me a towel...... Sometimes a hug like this speaks greater volumes than a load of words. i am just one lucky girl. ( but i guess playtime has been put back again)
Hope you all had a good Sunday

Sunday 4 May 2014

 Well as promised here is Saturday's blog. i wont lie, i almost didn't get on here to do this , as today has kept me so busy with all sorts of extra things and i feel really worn out. Good thing about today include that  i heard that my father is potentially cancer free again, after another burst of chemo sessions, ( we will know for definite in six weeks ) The chemo always seems to bring out a fight in him though and i am just glad for him that it was only a short course of it this time .
i have also managed to prepare most of the back garden flower beds for the brightly coloured gems that Master and i have chosen so far, saving just the one to do for tomorrow..... as it will give me something to focus on whilst Master and my middle son finish the decorating that they are doing.
Speaking of decorating i feel eternally grateful that is has been a warmish day today as we have had to have all the windows open upstairs to rid the house of the painty fumes. ( my asthma does not seem to enjoy the freshly painted rooms that much and has already been playing up due to the pollen. )
i am trying desperately to keep it under control as i know that if it is not , there will be not a chance of play for me next week either and i miss the light caress of His canes , although i have noticed that the wooden spoon has suddenly appeared upstairs so maybe i will be lucky and have a bite from that tonight.
Have a good rest of the day all

good

 Today was good , we ( Master and i ) went to the market to buy our fruit and Veg and Master got some baby lavender plants for a project that He has planned to do in our garden. ( i also brought Him a baby dahlia  ( just because i like the colours of it)
Life at the moment seems to be very content and i have to try hard not to rock the boat and make it stormy again. Tuesday is bringing more visits for bloods etc and hopefully a coffee afterwards , but in the mean time we have three lovely holiday days to rest and relax and hopefully get some decorating done.
For this month i have set myself the task of trying to grow a full set of nails... ( no easy task when i forget to place the gardening gloves on when pulling weeds or the washing up ones on when doing the dishes. ) Also to drink at least four bottles of the water, and to journal every day , even if there is nothing much to say. Out of all of them probably the writing one is the one i am least likely to succeed in. ( BUT i am determined. ) Have a good rest of the Friday all .
hugs
