As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

                                         look at her banging off the side of her bowl

[bitsnknots]

It could only happen to Twishy.

[captainbovine]

she'll trot back from the shops poorer that's for sure.....

should we all club together and get her a magnifying glass?

[ed_blackadder_1]

Over here twishy, behind you, yes here I am.

I can sympathise with you, without my glasses I am fine for distance but anything closer than an arms length and I can't see it, reading pah no way.

Don't leave it too long and hurt your eyes.

[twishy123]

Too right Capt...

But I've got two pairs,one for distance (blind as a batness) and a pair for reading,sewing,lappying and other close up and personal stuff....

AND...

They are a dark red wine/purple colour......ooooooh get me ...

Pick them up on Saturday so I'm still stuck together for now and won't be going out until I go for me specs...it causes too much hilarity for other people...too much for my liking...

[merc1_clocks]

                  close up and personal stuff....

      what can she be referring to ?

[petitecalicocat]

Merc i really cant imagine , ive led a sheltered life ...er not LOL 

I came home from the hairdressers today to find Son his GF & her little girl here . 
Son was assembling the pram we bought them , its a very clever system with car seat as well 
Must confess to taking it a walk around the house after they left LOL

[bitsnknots]

Aww that's nice Von.  How long to go now before the baby's due?

[petitecalicocat]

14 weeks to go yet & she wont have the pram at hers so im storing it for them 🙂

[learning2me]

Exciting time PCC 

Hope you get sorted Twishy. I pick up new glasses (for emergency use only as I have contacts) next Tuesday.

How is the hoof CB?

We have been to visit my sister in Seahouses today. Had lunch in Bamburgh then walked along the beach in the shadow of the castle.

[bitsnknots]

That 14 weeks will fly by Von.

Sounds like you had a nice day Mags.

[ilove2patch]

That looks like a great place for a walk Mags.

[cookiecookuk]

glad everyone seems well.

except twishys eyes.i know what its like as i have broke mine before. i now buy one get one free on my distance and reading glasses so i always have back up...

i also have two more bags ready for easter.. but now spending a few days turning up curtains and trousers..

[bitsnknots]

Like the bags Cookie.  Oooooh you are clever.

[*pixachu*]

Cute crafts cookie!

Hope you're all fine. I don't know where the days are going - the weeks seem to be flying past so fast at the moment!

I'm tired, I still have not found any energy and I still struggle to get my house clean and tidy. And I don't really work, so I have the time.

The pets I am looking after are just extra work too...

It's just rubbish feeling lethargic all the time. Which is why I sit at my desk so much.... faffing about. I have no real motivation. I need to get busy and I need to be more active and lose some weight. I want to feel more confident & maybe find some motivation.

Anyway, I have done a silly thing. As I said up there, I don't really work - I do help my OH with stuff (some ordering/paperwork type stuff, from home) and I sell stuff on ebay & local FB sites. But I have somehow roped myself into a new business on the side, which seemed like a good idea at the time, but as I have so few friends or even acquaintances, it is a bit crazy to do.

But, I can do what I want, no real targets, a few rules to stick to. It's a product that will pretty much sell itself, and I will just have to become a network marketing guru. Lol. If I can be bothered. Wish me luck.

Wonder how long this will last? x

Take care everyone xxx

[captainbovine]

well good luck with it Pix, you can at least give it a go can't you?

thanks for asking Learning, I'm actually walking in the house without the crutches but I need to use them when I go out.

I will be back in work in a fortnight, so I need to get some practice in.

I don't have much pain though which is good.

[bitsnknots]

Glad that your hoof is feeling better CB.

[stan3502]

nothing ventured ...... nothing gained pix good luck xxx

[cat-knitter]

Peeps through door

Glad to hear your finally free & enjoying "washing" CB
