Let’s Plod On

 March already! 

The days are flying by so fast but it has been a good year so far.   

I have been successful in a couple of small DIY jobs and because of that shed tears my father isn’t here for me to share with him.  He’d have been so proud of me and although he’s been gone 34 years apparently I can still miss him badly.  Those couple of days were bittersweet but I do have more confidence in my ability to do small jobs and so avoid calling in an expensive professional.

And I finished my Ukrainian Whitework mat.   This was such a pleasurable stitch.   I loved every bit of it and am so pleased with the finished result.


So I’m inspired to get on with another WIP and have pulled out the Pocket Quaker.   My aim is to get the second section completed before Stitch Group day.   Quite possible I think but only if I’m disciplined:)

And at long last my scales are my friend and I feel as if my cardiologist will be happy with me when I see her at the end of June.   The UK cream tea kilos are off now (ha ha) and I need to lose the Bereavement Kilos and then my happy dance will be so loud and long it will be heard from far away.   That’s the plan anyway.
