That's me done for the day. OH has finished work so going to join him and stop too.
This afternoon I have crocheted another square and I have made my first Covid 19 mask, it looks like when we might only be allowed out soon if wearing a mask so thought I would have a go. Quite pleased with myself, it was a pattern provided by one of the hospitals.

That would confine me totally to the house.. I have massive panic attacks and stop breathing if my face is covered by anything, works really well during surgery with oxygen masks!.. I can't have things on my neck either..
A week after DS1 showed symptoms (his boss and colleague are seriously ill) no one in here has followed suit... not even OH and he gets absolutely everything!
I have fiddled with laundry, reported neighbours flytipping to the council AGAIN and the DW has been on. OH was sent to shop so we have fruit.. I need a cuppa..
Wifi just throwing a wobbly so I will post this when I can.. (4:30 currently)

Beautiful Narco
My sister got in touch with DS to arrange the birthday gift for dad - 2 boxes of beer - and DS bought a third for him so we have delivered them a day early.
Had a bit of time in the garden digging - sods are solid as they have dried up, broke through a few but it's hard going. Washing brought in.

Good evening
Round 3 was completed, plus I walked the dog. He found a tennis ball wedged in a hedge so that was one happy pooch!
I didn't do much for the rest of the evening, except mend the stitching on DHs running gloves as they were coming apart at the seams.
Tomorrow I must call my mum as I didn't speak to her today, and I must sow some seeds!!
Night night all x9 -
Lovely ring, Narc0

- showered and dressed before 10.00
S&S'd kitchen and bathroom
- dealt with some more of my friend's ancestors
- made about 6 phonecalls
- WMx3, all hung out
- heard that my best friend from uni (the colleague with whom I wrote the study courses a few years back) is in a bad way with C-19 and has been taken into intensive care
- made some Easter cards and wrapped up another parcel for a friend's children

Have managed to find better priced car insurance policy.
Have failed in the bid to paint the fence as I've decided I need a 12l 'can'of fence stuff and there aren't any in stock at my local bee'n'q which is offering click and collect.
Have ordered quartz clock movement to fix dining room clock (housewarming gift from late sis)
Still haven't come up with patchwork project to use my shabby chic patchwork pieces.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Morning xx
That's gorgeous Narc0 xx
Prayers said for your friend ionafan xx And for all the other poorlies xx You ok, Natty? xx
ionafan - I told DS that he was going to have to cut my hair with his clippers. He literally paled. I pointed out the your DH cuts yours and that I'd been thinking of doing the 'Brave the Shave' for some time so it would be ok - I need to mention it again so he can get used to the idea. Desensitisation, I think they call it
Stressed Out Annie seems to have left the building. Shhhh, she may just be sleeping. This means that Roundtuit and Weekend Willi can fly and crack on with dot to dotting.
So far today I've made my bed, stepped outside to watch the sun rise, made a brew, and caught up with the thread.
Round 1 =

refill the bird bath
WUDUPA
put out the recycling

Stay safe

Morning all
A lovely morning here, so feeling quite motivated.
Narco what a gorgeous wreath and such a lovely thought
Bed made, clothes picked up

Sheet that was airing on the landing folded and put away (in the past it would have stayed out until it went back on the bed)
Cushions and throws in living room straightened.
OH unloaded DW and put his breakfast things in so kitchen is tidy
OH already started on the phone so keeping quite, but I damp dusting isn't noisy
Coffee and update banking now.
Keep SMILING, see you all later
