Memorygirls - The Matrix Re-inspired

Marru

Bit of a blaaaah day today. Glad that I have a week to do my wheel of life exercise. At the moment thou I think I need to concentrate on just one thing: GET MY HOUSE SORTED !!!!!

I need a good nice sleep without anxious dreams and I am sure I will get my bounce back.

Hello peeps - running because we have been out all afternoon with a picnic (well the boys played and I wrote) but we have all had fresh air.

Have we heard that Nats hubbie is OK? S'funny isn't it how you can worry about people you have never met?

Think I need to to a "salady" tea as its really quite warm here - there's loads of parsley in the garden so it may end up being tabouleh which the kids adore so I will be a popular Mummy.

But first I need to go water the garden as its looking a wee bit limp and fragile.

Marru I get you on the whole "if the house is yucky so am I" thing. So important our environment - but such a struggle.

Off to find my timer and do some 15 minutes - I has to be done

My house needs sorting too, my poor bedroom looks like a bomb has hit it.

My scarf is coming along fantastic!! Mum has seen it and loves it I was sat knitting in the waiting room of the hospital and people were coming up and asking me how it was done and where I got the wool from :eek:

will take a picture in a minute of what it looks like

Holds hand up to being part of that group - although it is a fairly new concept to me. I used to find when working 50+ hours a week outside the home that I never "saw" our environment and never really cared about it. Now I find that as I spend almost 24/7 here my environment is one of the top priorities in my life - hence me outside cleaning a bleedin' green garden box for pete's sake :rotfl:.

Quick cuppa, then time to feed the troops.

Eta: Claire I saw a scarf like that yesterday in my local craft shop - go you

Thrifty can I ask how much they were selling for? out of curiosity?? I'm not selling this one incase anyone thinks I'm trying to get sales, just wondering what the finished value would be.

Thats lovely Claire - I am a big fan of scarves, but then thinking about it logically it does get a wee bit nippy up here.

I've blitzed the kitchen whilst cooking dinner and watering the garden (multi-tasker - moi???) So its looking lovely. I'm beginning to get a bit paranoid that you lot can "see" around the corners when I take the photos of the food and will be able to see the unwashed washing-up :rotfl:

Ironing board is now positionned in living room with a huge jug of water - so by hook or by crook the ironing IS happening tonight.

I would far rather be writing for you guys - but OMG!!! you have to make the soup I have just done for dinner. Creamy carrot and coriander for 1 (cos DS1 didn't fancy some soup tonight). 10 minutes start to finish and is gorgeous. I will go and pop the full recipe up over the blog soon as I've finished the bedtime routine.

Oops!!! Just caught sight of my bedroom - 15 minutes in there later I think.
