And so it goes....

Best laid plans and all that, eh?
I have been too tired/stressed/weary at night/time robbed to keep up my daily schedule of posts. Not even my weekly pattern has survived. Bad author. Bad author.
But hope springs eternal. I'm having a restorative weekend with the family. I have my plans; a little lie in, a little light house work, a walk in the park with possibly a coffee and a chance to write my menu plan for Monday. I'll see you then x

    Sometimes life just goes like that doesn't it.
    I hope things calm down and that all is well and half term gives you a chance to relax and regroup.

    Ach, that's what makes life so interesting. That we can change our plans and go and do something else.

    A daily schedule, even in a short month like February, is quite a commitment, I really enjoyed reading the posts you wrote, and I'll enjoy reading the ones you write in the future, whenever you post them. There's no rush, and I hope you enjoy your restorative weekend xx

      A decent rest, a good book finished and a day out with my Mum = good rest.

My Latest Trick...

I really need to introduce you to my latest hooky love, before it gets finished and I end up not telling you the back story. Let me show you what I'm on about first; World, meet Autumn Ripple Blanket (Autumn for short). You see, I have a granny square with flowers and a black background blanket that I'm desperate to finish for my bedroom, and a list of decorative items I'd like to do for Autumn and Christmas, so I sat down last week to make an Autumn Inspirations board on Pinterest (like you do) and made this; https://www.pinterest.com/angeljem5/autumn-and-fall/ and I loved the colours and the feelings it aroused in me. Colour-wise I am a warm autumn, but very often misbehave and don't wear them (long reason; won't say now) but I do love them, and the whole Season of Mists and Mellow Fruitfulness bit, so the board keeps filling up with pure autumnal inspiration.

Hallowe'en... good or bad?

For years when mine were little, we studiously avoided Hallowe'en. We went to the Church's Light Party (if fancy dress was in order, it was superheroes, or princesses not witches or skeletons) and made little or no adjustment to the daily order, so no bobbing for apples, peeling skins for divination or any thing that smacked of magicality at all. It worked for us; we didn't go Trick or treating, and those who visited us were politely told, "We don't celebrate Hallowe'en here" The children grew up sensible and well-adjusted, they don't do gross horror films and I'm proud of them. This year they are all old enough to make up their own mind. The lads are easy; if it involves effort, then they're not bothered. But the Princess is a great joiner, and wants to be part of her group. So when a friend invited her to a Hallowe'en party I gave her the option; of course the answer was yes. "I'm not celebrating Hallowe'en," she said,...
