Not had a day at home for 5 days so plan to be indoors tomorrow as we will be out for the following 3 days.
Finished some crochet rose brooches this afternoon. I have made 10 of them for the craft fair.

Good Morning to you all
I took part of a chat about autism a while back, thought what a nice friendly place this was, but obviously I shouldn't think too many positive thoughts because my little laptop screen lapsed into permanent darkness the next day!
However it's my 60th birthday at the end of this month and my oldest son has just given me an early present of a new laptop, so here I am again
I'm glad the blistering heat seems to be abating, taking my mother to Holland and Barrett's this afternoon where she will buy her own body weight in vitamins, however since she is still able to tackle Norwich city centre ( with just a bit of help) at ninety two, I think her investment is probably paying off.9 -
Been at the SA hall this morning getting ready for the craft fayre tomorrow. I was asked to price the table of new toys.
I am going to price my craft makes this afternoon.
Had a go at making an angel yesterday afternoon.

Hope all your makes sell tomorrow Florence and raise money for your cause. I hope you give yourself a break and some peaceful family time afterwards . You've been like the Duracell Bunny. Just reading some of your posts has worn me out!Looking forward to Christiano walking out at Old Trafford tomorrow. Memories of the Glory Days. Pity they aren't allowed to show it live but I'll be listening to Radio 5 and propping my eyelids up watching MOTD tomorrow night.Hoping all FENCERS are OK and monna hasn't overdone things. I've fallen behind so need to catch up. Came online earlier and laptop had a sudden hissy fit type only showing on the right of the screen so I gave it a good telling off, closed it down and walked away. I don't hang around during tantrums.It seems ok now so whatever you're all doing enjoy the rest of the day. It's damp and muggy here today, yesterday was too hot with the promise of heavy rain and thunderstorms,I had a thumping head all day but not a drop of rain fell or any storm to clear the air although it was badly needed.Take care allpollyxIt is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness.
There but for fortune go you and I.6 -
pollyanna-26 - I am still going through makes and pricing. Stopping to eat now.
No rain or storms here today.
Re football - I want a good result tomorrow - it's my birthday.
