New day

 I didn't get round to writing a new post yesterday because the 'Sorry' post went on and on. I tried to answer a lot of the comments, but there comes a time, when enough is enough and I start deleting. There is no point in going all around the houses and ending up right back at the beginning. It is time to move on. 

I have a life. I don't hang around forever in one place. There are many activities that I enjoy doing. Every day is a brand new start. Every day is a bonus. You can't change what happened yesterday, it's gone, it's finished. 

Yesterday I went to the Coffee Morning. I took five pet beds with me and sold two of them. The lady who wanted one wasn't there. As I walked home through the village green I saw two people walking two small dogs. Aha, I wonder if they would buy the beds. I got chatting to them. They are fairly local but staying on the nearby caravan park in their VW camper van. The lady was 74, just like me. Such a nice couple. They said the pet beds are just what they wanted in the van for their dogs. Another two sold. 

Later on I made the decision to go food shopping. My fridge was bare, and I was eating my way through the freezer. On the way to Aldi I dropped off the last pet bed to the lady who wanted one but couldn't come to the coffee morning. 

I went a bit mad at Aldi, really stocked up, and got some treats. A bottle of Ballycastle to put in my coffee. A bottle of honey cider, not tried that before. A bottle of Summer Ale with peach, looks interesting. £70 spent, but that's ok, it's been over two weeks since I last went shopping. 

So this morning the weather looks promising, sunshine but a bit chilly. Mayze has taken herself off outside and is now lounging on the bed I have put on the table for her. I have four more pet beds to finish off, and two other crafty projects on the go. Always something to do in the garden, and I must go for a walk. 

Are you keeping busy? A friend keeps asking me, don't you ever sit down and do nothing? Hell no. Always got to be doing something. 

Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip.   ilona

  1. Good for you Ilona. I like to ignore the world and get on with my life each day. I am a lacemaker, forty years now. It's very relaxing. I also love my garden, reading, jigsaws and crosswords. Always lots to do. I like to shut the world out.
