life as it is

1. A brightly coloured rainbow against the blue sky. Seeing through the rainbow at the tinted clouds. 2. Mystery tour on rail replacement bus , as driver got lost. Parts of my home county I never been through before. 3. Listening to the wind as it screeches through the chimney and the sun shining through the raindrops on the window.

1. Youngest granddaughter is the only girl in the team for football. She thinks it’s great football . 2. Iced mango tea my new favourite. 3. Meet one of the teachers who schoolroom I clean, we went round the room and she told me what she does in the way of cleaning and I told her what we do, she is very neat and tidy. So it was nice to meet her and we under each other .

1. Seeing an unexpected sight in the front garden a lone daffodil swaying in the strong wind. With more to follow. 2. A unexpected meeting with my mother. Was on the bus and saw her in a cafe so popped into to see her, she was waiting for my sister as they were going to the local garden centre. I be going with them next time. 3. My mother admitted to me she is a little deaf, so I told her that she should get it sorted out , she is 93 this year and she just laughed. She was very beautiful when she was younger and her laugh reminded me of her when she was younger. Actually she she still beautiful. No I dint inherit her looks I take after my dad and I am not complaining.

1.Trying to be in my happy place and it’s not working, but will continue to try. 2. Finished an other double crochet strip for a blanket I am making was going to be for the cats but as they are no longer with me , I will continue to make it and use it. 3. Making plans for a holiday even a weekend away would be good.

1. 2 trains ,1 bus . Walk over 2 foot bridges just to get to my destination. Due to the fact that a severe landslide has stop trains going to my usual station. But it’s been good to see places you never see by going your usual way. If you get my drift . 2. Walking up the road and seeing a tree in pink blossom. First this year. Spring is on the way. 3. Enjoying the late afternoon . Seeing it’s light in the late afternoon. As I work late afternoon, early evening, I don’t get the pleasure of seeing the lighter afternoon/evening.

Writing is not easy a times and you get an idea then you think along that line then you think no it doesn’t work. Believe it or not I never wanted to be a novelist or have a book in print like a craft book. I can imagine people criticising them to their hearts content . I think writers of any books are very brave. 1. Cleaning the brush of the hoover . What an exciting life I lead, but it now works beautifully. 2. Last day of working week and it’s been one of those weeks . You dammed if you do dammed if you don’t 3. Granddaughter a lot better, that goodness

1. Having a jam doughnut for the first time in ages and really enjoyed it. 2. A walk in the rain and wind blew the cobwebs away. Enjoying seeing people’s rain wear and the many colours they were in. Bright and cheerful. 3. Having a lovely conversation with someone who talks to me then doesn’t but it’s no problem to me. That’s they way they are but when we do it’s really nice.

My poor blog . I really not had much to say in the past year or so. No wonder people don’t visit it much! Don’t blame them , I wouldn’t find it is an exciting blog or one full of information. I did think about a knitting or crochet blog but there is so many out there which is good. Cooking , baking yet again many blogs out there again. Reading? I have had the most severe reading block not read a book properly for ages . I mentioned this to a lovely assistant in the book shop near me. She said try to read to exactly 100 pages and if it grabs you you will continue to read but if not try and find a book you never consider and try again. And she said that she always takes a book with her when she is always out and about , on her way to work , and she tries to read at least a page , she said that how she got over her reading block, but she said the most important thing was not to worry to much, it will come back.  I might do 3 positive things a day again and that should kick start me aga
