Day 130: Thursday 18th July

Lovely morning spent with Daddy while Mummy went off doing her thing. Daddy walked up and down the 'track' at the side of the house, straw hat on, confidently stepping out, while I picked loganberries with a weather-eye on him. Then it was time for a cup of tea and a biscuit. The relaxed mood was continued with some snoozing while I listened to the soundtrack from 'Call The Midwife' 

as I crocheted a blanket for my friend Hanbury Kate. It has what seems to be a beautifully chosen colour-scheme (ie random out of the stash box) which I am really pleased with.

I appear to be still harbouring a bit of a hurty thumb though, related to a cycling incident a while back. This is impeding the progress of any crochet, and it seems that knitting is not a possibility at all. I trust that it will all calm down very soon. 

Having spoken to Mrs Typist at C2's school yesterday, I have now acquired 3 display boxes for my proposed craft fair ventures. They will look great covered in a tablecloth, with my makes arranged tastefully on top. They will be irresistable, and will fly off the shelves, and my little crochet world will be such a happy place.

Display box things

Just 9 more school runs until the summer holidays - that should have an impact on the petrol bill!

Now all I need to do is sort out Furbaby Care while we are elsewhere. I have a spreadsheet!
