A week passed by here at home ... i'm going to say it again ...... how did that happen?
A few days since i wrote most of the wording to this post. I've tried for the last 3 days to get blogger to upload pictures, today it finally let me do it
We are fine, hubby and I get on really well. Reading, crafting, gardening, him DIY, phone calls, video calls, baking, tea breaks, plenty keeping us entertained and busy.
I've tried ribbon embroidery.
A kit purchased a few years back at a craft show.
I was asked if I would try and make some cotton face masks so me and the sewing machine have made friends again (and got on just fine).
I've made 7 like this in differing fabrics.
The Big Community Sew (Patrick, Esme and others from the Sewing Bee)
Watching Springwatch 2020 and still posting my daily pictures for the 30 days wild.
Here's a catch up of my postings
Day 4 - London Pride growing well
Day 5 - Spending far too much time watching these characters
Day 6 - Rain - a lot of it
Day 7 - Poplar trees in a neighbours garden really rustle in the wind. They are about 75 feet tall and are home to so many birds, squirrels and even a woodpecker which comes onto our feeders sometimes.
Day 8 - Bark on my pear tree.
Lots of bugs being eaten from there by the birds.
Day 9 - Strawberries. A few delivered to us from the community garden. Volunteers are still venturing there (one family at a time) and keeping the crops growing for the community to share. The first of this years crop shared with us too.
Day 10 - 8.05pm 1 flower, 8.15pm 2 flowers. This plant was given to us. not sure what it is, but the flowers only come out in the evening and die the same night. Evening Primrose style? Anyone know what it is?
Day 11 - Something burrowed under the fence during last night from next door. Wrecked the plants! Wildlife Trusts think maybe we have a visiting hedgehog? More investigation and evidence needed.
We've been spending a lot of time for weeks watching ospreys at one of my favourite local places on their online live camera. It's been really exciting watching the parents arrive back from afar and lay 4 eggs. Maya (female) and 33 (male) are catching fish and raising their 4 chicks so beautfully. They grow so quickly and are so fun to watch.
I've started a new knitting project, something I have wanted to make for a long time. I'll share that with you next time.
Love and blessings from our home to yours
Take care, stay safe
