Off Topic / Re: What made you smile today?
« on: Today at 03:46:05 AM »
Had several reasons to smile this week, mostly to do with bounties of free food to tide me over this broke week, & help with paying for the food I had to buy (milk in particular).
Also to do with getting closer to people, including some I didn't expect

Oh boy it seems I missed typing here for a bit!!!
Anyway, been pretty broke, which should mean scraping by, but actually means being blessed again. £5 worth of member points helped out with milk & stuff on Tuesday, bad weather (rain) on Wednesday plus other stuff meant only four of us showed for the fun night, so it got really personal & I got a HUGE doggy bag of treats!!! Meant it was good & I got to know some folks I don't see much a lot better as a result.
This morning I went to the noisy coffee & my pal from that was in hospital as her son had a virus but he's all better now. I got to introduce them to the person I had coffee with on Tuesday too.
Meanwhile I knocked a scarf off the knit list, two to go before I hit the next stuff. I think I'll finish scarf number 2 then start on a new set as I hack the third in wee bits.
Also to note: I'm making a sourdough starter. I have no rye flour but I'm using bread flour instead.

Griffin glad everything went so well wi moggie xxx
BC good on you for getting things done how you can. I hope you're using a wheeled chair xxx
Artie yep life without TV is bliss!!!
Beth I'm so glad things went well. In between your chores take your time to feel stuff xxx

slept late :( at least it's the weekend. my sleep has been wonky too. i woke up at 2:30am and took about an hour to fall back asleep.

today i need to get everything ready for us to drive to Houston for my MIL's funeral. I also need to go over to my parent's. i haven't felt up to seeing anyone really but i should go over there and visit.

other than that i need to clean the house some and finish trimming the plants in the front yard. i usually water every other day if it doesn't rain so i think if i water before we leave and when we get home they'll be ok.

i get a lot of anxiety when i travel. it's why i don't really go on vacation. it's hard for me to leave the dogs. we're taking one with us and 2 of them will stay with my parents.

Bakana is bathed, I'm showered, & the last of my laundry is in. Some had to wait because of Thursday night & Friday morning. MISSED Thursday night due to wonky sleep, but made Friday morning & got that day's laundry in.
Knitting & crochet-wise I finished the hat to go wi the gloves which were irritating to make, so now on the scarf, which means I have 3 scarves on the go now.
Forgot to mention being a bit early for coffee on Tuesday so I also took glass out that day.
Every package I've ordered has arrived.

And the last few days have been 20C & above here, so pretty warm pretty quickly. I've enjoyed some of it, but by heavens I get sweaty quickly & that isn't fun

Cheers peeps xxx
BC I hope this new lot live & thrive xxx
Artie enjoy the baking!!!
Caysie oo boy!!! I hope you get that check-up done soon

Game deleted, along with everything to do wi it.
Got loot so transferred money to Paypal to fix the balance.
Went to coffee morning in the morning, it was good & saw some pals & got some yarn. Got a few quick messages from Co-op, put them away, went to Lidl town. Got the knitting needles & crochet hooks I needed in the yarn shop, then found a smart jacket AND some plates!!! Been scouring for both for ages, so good I found them now.
The cafe ran out of milkshakes, so I effectively told them how to make an affogato, then telling them to Google it.
I found yarn colours I don't yet have & a few other bits.
Lidl ran out of mini pizzas, but I got the other stuff I needed there. Then I hit the town's Co-op for a sandwich to have instead of a mini pizza. Bus home only minutes later.
Aside from the quick stuff I get in the local Co-op next week I have what I need, & not much else to spend loot on so will leave it for now.
Ate lightly at home, hence wanting the mini pizza & getting the sandwich.
There was evening music, coffee or juice, & cakes & biccies (also grapes & yep I had some too) on later, so I went to that. The music was quite good & some of the tunes were fun!!!
Today there's nothing on so Bakana's having a bath, then I'll do laundry & have a shower.

The wings look gorgeous!!!
And wow!!! You got the entire Paradise Estate building!!! Furniture won't be hard to find, & will be easy to post, but you got really lucky finding the whole building!!! I display mine in two halves, with the patio, living room, & kitchen on one shelf, & the rest on another. I saw another person display theirs like that & thought it was a great idea.
Congrats on getting the stuff!!!
