A Little Bit Of Xmas Gingerbread...

Shut out all of your past except that which will help you weather your tomorrows - Sir William Osler

Welcome to my Hump of the Week 🐫
Started off the day with a good breakfast.
That's better.
Let's start of Wednesday in a Xmas mood!
  Nice blue Xmas Gingerbread man dress!
I had my wool delivery arrive.
 Loads of lovely stuff to make with it. ;) 
Had a early lunch.
Now out into the cold↓ 
 
 Still feeling cold.
While I waited to go into work.
I checked the Birthdays.
 Frank Sinatra:American singer (Strangers in the Night, My Way) and actor (From Here to Eternity) known as 'old blue eyes', would have been 103 years old.
(He died in 1998)
Jennifer Connelly: American actress (Labyrinth, Requiem for a Dream), is 48 years old.
   Brad Dexter: [Boris Milanovich], American actor (Macao, The Magnificent Seven), dies of emphysema at 85 in 2002

You Can Never Know When You Need It!

Welcome to the *Monday Feeling*
Everyone had a big 💋  before they left.
I looked out of the window..
 The white stuff still there!
I had to sort out my craft crap.
Four huge boxes.....
What was I going to find in there???
I found loads of ribbons...
 plus loads of loose ribbon.....
I found tonnes of....
 I even found some Italian wool I bought from the Hobbycraft show at the NEC in 2012.
A friend who I went with asked in 2013, if I still had the wool?
I replied "Yes".
"You should sell it if you are not using it!"
I tapped my nose, and said:
"You never know when you will need it!"
(Only a True Hoarder would say that ;))
To solve the problem with having all this lovely felt, 
I bought a book off Amazon....
 Looking forward to making things....
Time for chop chop...
Used up all the Quail eggs we bought Saturday...
Nice healthy stir fry to go with it.
I had a massive reading catch up with the newspapers from the weekend ....
With a little help from..
Back to playing with Kenny tomorrow!

Enjoying Some Law & Order...

Filling Up The Little Green Bag...

Back on to the Monday Feeling.
Once the house was emptied.
I went back to bed
(I was a member of the wide awake club again last night!)
Once I caught up with my sleep.
I was all ready to do things...
Remove dead flowers from Living Room.
It was a bit of assault course,
Lots of grabbing onto and holding onto things, and plenty of hopping.
Completed!
Now for a little bit of dinner..🍽
 Got another Xmas card in the post.↓
 Sitting on my bed for a long time,
Causes my arse to go numb.
So after I hopped and grabbed on things.
I got to my computer chair.
Now to enjoy a little bit of Waitrose Experience,
With a blast of tunes from 10cc.
I was treated to coffee and a mince pie when my kids came home from school...
I am going to make some smaller pom pom wreaths.
Just ideal, as I had some more wool delivered...
Put all together in my little green bag...
Going to break open a good boxset tonight...
With of course my ever dependable foot up!
