Easter Sunday

M came this morning and at last my sewing room is looking as it should!! two shelves and a wall unit up, just a couple of crates to empty   and I can finish the two mats I started for G. before we moved.

Its been fine all day, forecast is for it to rain all day tomorrow........we are going to the garden centre to see what plants they have. The visit by our old gardener has been put off until the weather inproves a bit.

Supper tonight roast pork, potato's, cauli and carrots. I have creme caramel for dessert.

Wet morning and freezing cold, went up to C & C DB brought a tomato, onions and sweet peas. I got  pulsittila  and an apricot foxglove. They are on trays on the porch window cill till it warms up a bit. We indulged in a mug of hot chocolate.......delicious. just before we left J came in with her daughter and grandson, so was able to catch up with the news from Hose. It will be May before we get to the next coffee morning.

Left a load of laundry on when we went out, put it in the dryer when we got back.......

Gammon sliced for supper, doing jacket spud and salad with it.

At last the sewing room is up and ready to roll. DB spent. Some time in the garden, I hand ironed the sheets from last week, I was crackered by the time I finished. DB went for his siesta early. We set off for Aldi and then to see our old neighbour. The infection has spread to both legs now, she is on anti bioics. I noticed a distinct change in her, her hearing is much worse and she has very limited sight as well, signs of short term memory loss. Very sad. Its been quite a warm day and no rain......wonders will never cease. 

Supper ......Lamb casserole with new potato's and mixed veg. Some creme caramel for dessert.

So with the sewing room almost ready, here are the photos.....

Cutting table and associated stuff

The machine up, the bookcase in the corner is general storage.

As you can see I still have a bit of fabric sorting to do, I am going to empty my fabric boxes and refold everything, especially the Christmas  fabric box, I just rammed the extra fabric in there before we moved. We still have some stuff to shift, most of it to the charity shop. I need to go in and see what of ours they have on show!! I did put them on the internet but no one seems to be buying, even at very low prices. I still have the cooker to sell. I need to clean it up and get it on the internet.

The chiropodist has been this morning, she will be here in 10 weeks time, apparently we are her only appointment in Melton.

Supper is a ding dinner with the last of the creme caramel for dessert.

Thursday, almost another week passed. I spent time this morning sorting fabric, some bits, I have no idea why I saved  them, most are too small to do anything with. They are now in a bag to go for recycle. 

It has been a fineish day, there were a couple of showers, it's not been too warm either, we are told the temperature is going to go up over the next few days. Will believe it when it happens.

Delivery from Morrison this lunch time. Frittata and salad for supper. DB finished off the creme caramel.

Nice day, quite sunny, but windy, it did cloud over for a while, but no rain. The sewing room is finished, fabric is all folded and put away and I have started on the mat for Goshi, it felt a bit weird, having not sewn since before christmas. It took me a few minutes to get back in the groove.

I tackled the marks on the carpet, most of them have come off. Did a quick push round with the shark, cleaner will be here on Monday.

 

Fish and chips tonight, no dessert.

Saturday is forecast to be rather warm, have just been into the porch, it's off the scale in there, but I doubt it will last.

The sitting room faces east, so the blinds are closed, will open them when the sun moves round. 

No real plans for today, want to finish the mat, then I will decide what to do next, I have an idea but I need to plan it out, that might take a while.

ADB tonight.
