life as it is

 1. Strawberries and banana with kerned  yoghurt for breakfast . Really thick and creamy the yoghurt dare I say nicer than cream. That’s my preference. Kerned is a old Somerset word for thickened.  2. Yarn bought ! I shall say no more. 3. Little steps that I am taking to ease myself out of this lockdown is beginning to take shape. I am in no rush . 

 1. Sorting out my yarns boy have I got some ! But all have got patterns to go with them. Then saw some yarn yesterday and resisted temptation but who is going tomorrow to get some more yearn yes me !  2. Started to fill in my new craft notebook . So good to write down the patterns and what colour to make the items!  3. Am finding it difficult with this easing of the lockdown so good excuse to get the yarn to get out . So love indoors and before I was out most days. But I am sure I will find a happy medium. 

 Taken a couple of days off . Much needed as there has been a lot of changes and my head is spinning with it all. But it had to be done. So taken time to reflect and sort my life out. There is much needed changes in my life to do, so small steps are required at the moment , big changes are needed but it is not quite the right time . But the time will come soon.  Grandchildren are all fine . The girls are back to school and doing well. They now have the good weather to go to school and come home. Grandson likes to be on the move most times which is good.  Just trying to get used to the lockdown being lifted . I must admit I am finding this one difficult. Spent so much time on my own and quick shopping  that I really got so used to it. At the moment I prefer my own company. But things will change foe me I will do it slowly. 

 The gardens are beautiful with the spring flowers in bloom. A joy to look at. The beech trees are unfurling their leaves at long last. Hear the birds singing but not seeing them and the resident robin is nearby the loudest song at the moment. 

 1. Hot buttered crumpets for breakfast and I mean proper butter.  2.  Made a sausage chilli, as  found a jar of chilli sauce said it was hot , but it turned out very mild! Good and tasty. 3. Was given some grapefruit scented hand cream really lovely scent. Love citrus scents for me they are so fresh clean and zingy. 

 1.  Brought a new project book. Where I put down colour schemes, patterns , whether it’s either knitting or crochet and what book the patterns are in. Even do my own thing will be going in .  2. Peach wool came sort of a dusky peach blends very well with the other colours I have got, hence the new project book. Can’t wait to start writing in it. 3. A kind word and gesture went a long way . Lots going on and what was said and done cheered me up. So maybe someone is feeling blue  a kind word even if it is a simple hello and smile I know we are wearing masks but your eyes smiles might be all that someone needs to help them a little bit.

 Lockdown slowly is being relaxed. Hopefully we won’t go through an other one.  It has been a difficult time for us all , some more than others.  Friend who had a stroke while having covid is doing very well.he is a fighter still some way to go but still fighting . The blanket is going well and ordered more wool! Well it was half price a flash sale so it had to be done! Lol! Got the colours what I really wanted and one colour I got was the last lot. So a happy bunny I am . 

 1. Granddaughter is 7 today and she is definitely not an fool at all. You don’t mess with her, she is a lovely sweet girl but you push her to far well !  2. Granddaughter no2 is a great second mum to her baby brother really loves him loads. First granddaughter loves him just as much but doesn’t show it.  3. April is here . One of the months I really like , May September and October are also favourites as well.  4. Ordered more wool! Well all three colours what I wanted was on a special offer at half price so why not I thought! Got enough wool to last me sometime now!  And the plans of things to make are shaping up well .
