TRYING TO CATCH UP

 Once again time has slipped away while I have simply been doing household chores, and trying to plan for a simple Christmas. It is 6 weeks since my last back procedure and there is some improvement although I still require pain medication at night. Nightly medication may be something I need to accept according to my pain specialist but I have another review in February.


I am pleased that I have made 2 washcloths and have another in progress thanks to Lou. I am making them for my mum and daughters to go with their Christmas gifts. I find hand knitted washcloths lovely to use when washing cleanser off my face so thought mum and the girls might like some with some face cleanser. Thanks for the pattern Lou! 






The last couple of days I was inspired to try doing some Christmas themed watercolour painting. 






I smudged the birdie one with my hand and the green Christmas tree is a bit wonky but I had fun. 


Question....where is summer? We had a glimpse of it a few days ago, for one day. I still have our heating on most days!!! 

Well, I have a lot of blog posts to catch up with now. Hopefully you shall see comments from me soon. Take care.
