    Cracked on with my knitting after lunch. I have finished 2 big socks and 1 shorter one. The 2nd shorter one is underway and I am hoping there'll be enough woolleft for a mini pair. Then step dd + sil + dgs can have matching presents!

    .

    Love this idea! - So cute! :D x

    And I was given the wool for Cmas by a friend, so it's not costing me anything! I made the socks for SIL first, to see how much wool they took. Then I have severely cut back for step dd in order to try to have enough for dgd too. I really hope there's enough!


    Am on mse, avoiding marking. Except the pesky marking just won't go away...!

    Ugg, but I want to get more sleep. Dd will struggle today. And the cast members were already looking worn out and wan before yesterday's performance, so they'll be in a right state today. And they still have 2 more performances to go...


    Was considering wimping out of running today. But no. I am made of sterner stuff than that, I hope. Maybe...

    We've got strong winds and rain here. It's sounding pretty grim outside.
    Well done on the planning.

    It's only been a bit blustery and chilly here today. However, I skived off the run as I forgot to take my running shoes to work! So I did 200 reps (of the 500 rep workout) instead.


    I allowed the good witch from Oz to have a snooze in my lesson today!



    And dd will have an early night tonight!

    Dh and I are off out for lunch at our local harv3st3r today, using a gift card that we were given 2 Christmases ago. Shows how much we eat out!


    And dd and I are using our complimentary tickets to go and see Hairspray at the posh school this evening - after I have taken her to a group at church straight from school then rushed her home to feed her (and me) before dh takes us up the road (been asked not to park on site as v limited room).


    In the rest of the day, there is laundry, sch prep for next week and beyond, sock sewing-up and mse mooching to fit in...
