Yawn Yawn Wakey Wakey 2020

@shiney I expect to be fed as well though!

It's still pitch here so no idea whether it is cloudy or not. I could see snow falling on one of the CCT screens so I guess I will be shoveling today. But that will be after I go with my son and grandson to the doctors. Grandson needs his final booster shot and being autistic, he won't sit still for it so I will be one of the restrainers. Sad to have to do this but the shot is needed else he won't be allowed at school. Anti vaxxers haven't won here and good thing as polio and other nasty things are popping up again.

After that, I will be working. Need to make a little money and also keep busy.

Have a lovely day all and please play safe!

 

Shiney I’ll come and live in that

 

@Flumpy we'll flip a coin to see who gets the job

 

Yay me me me

 

Good morning all, hope you are all in fine fettle. Have a good day, wrap up warm and dry, keep out of the wind and above all stay safe and well. God bless.

 

Morning to you @moyra and to all who drop by.

Yes the winds have been strong, hope everyone and their surroundings have come through it safely.

The winds are set to pick up again later today.

We just have to keep reminding ourselves that there are worst things happening in the world. Rain and strong winds are nothing in comparison!

Enjoy you day.

 

Hey there, that was a loonie I flipped! Hope he slips a chili in your stew!

It's another dreary January day - cloudy and now we're back down in the teens - 18f

Taking a friend to the hospital for their physio session and before and after that time I will be having a marathon sewing session. I want to get the seat cushion covers (7) for this current job done today. My granddaughter is coming at the end of the month and I also want to get some other sewing done. I have fabric for another two twinsets, a pair of corduroy trousers, and a couple of tops that I'd like to get on with and also done before she gets here.

I hope I have a productive day and I hope everyone here has a super day and plays safe

 

Hi y’all’s hope you’ve all kept warm and safe today

Lori, that made me chuckle when you said “I hope someone slips a chill in your stew

well it’s been a busy day at the chemist and very cold too

Upsydaisy how is your back now?

Shiney you was definitely spoilt on holiday

 

Hi @Flumpy. Yes all back to normal and raring to go thanks.

Spent the afternoon with my gorgeous, cheeky 2yr great nephew......what a character he is, came away with a face ache from laughing so much.

Weather has been foul here with torrential rain and very strong winds. Thankfully we're not cold down here, in fact I'm still wearing sleeveless T shirts and only adding a cardi in the evening.....so it's not all bad .

 

@CanadianLori .... you make me want to take up needlework again , I use to love making my own clothes back in the days before the children came along. Sadly now that I have the time there aren't any good haberdashery shops near us, the very last one closed down a couple of months ago. I know I can buy online but it's not the same as browsing through all the rolls of fabric.

 

@Upsydaisy I like to feel the hand and weight of a fabric before buying too although there are some things the local fabric shop doesn't have so I will take a chance and so far only been disappointed a few times. The colour has always been true but the weight, that is what can be a let down.Been working with french knits a bit and having fun. I had bought some new items before coming over there a few years ago and deeply regretted putting out the money for poor quality. At my age, something cheap really shows!

 

Exactly....it looks good but the feel can be like an old washed out rag!! Nothing let's down a garment more that the wrongly weighted fabric....stiff as an old board or as I said earlier as flimsy as a rag!!!

But I will definitely keep an eye open in future I think.
