Day 231 to 237 Quiet week. And how glad I am of that! This is the last week before I will find myself working for myself a few days out of each week. I spent some of the week going back and forth with Disclosure Scotland (the people who do police checks in Scotland). I […]

Day 205
Day 205 Another day spent with a friend means another refreshing reset to the outlook. This particular friend is someone I admire very much, she goes for what she wants and what she wants is rarely conventional. She has a love of science and maths and that means the jobs she pursues often involve passing […]
Day 131
Day 131 I wish I had lots to blog about today but I really don’t. This has been such a quiet day and I’ve done very little. It has been relaxing and all but I really need to do more. My start’itus has continued with a new crochet project (still haven’t finished the last one.). […]
Day 121
Day 121 Today I had my last relaxed bit of freedom. Sure I freaked out a little when I checked the bank balance and wasn’t sure when it would next be replenished but there is no point in panicking. So today I had fun. I have now seen The Avengers. I totally loved it. It […]
Day 86
Day 86 I love sunny days! They help with everyone’s mood. People seem a little more patient and I notice even in myself that it takes that little bit more to send me over the edge. I went for a walk at lunch time today to try and soak up some of that vitamin D. […]
Day 58
Day 58 This evening has been really fun! I spent most of tonight chatting to friends on Ravelry. We had what can only really be described as a pyjama party! A couple of us were painting our nails and we were sharing photos of ourselves and families. We are a pretty good looking group of […]
Day 55
Day 55 What a nice day. Work wasn’t great but it went quickly. Then I picked up the man-shape and brought him back to mine for an afternoon of relaxing fun. We didn’t have anything we had to do. We could just be. It was much needed and it was fabulous. Even if we did […]
Day 49
Day 49 Today has been a mixed bag. It started by going to the post office to pick up a random act of kindness parcel. Inside were two Tunisian crochet hooks, one a small size and one slightly larger. I’m looking forward to trying Tunisian crochet. I went to the knitting group at my local […]
Day 36
Day 36 I have had a lazy day. It has been both long and quick. That sounds daft I’m sure but this morning seems like forever ago without the day dragging at all. I spent most of the day in front of the laptop chatting in the Nerd Wars group chat room. I was knitting […]
Day 34
Day 34 Not much to tell you tonight, like I said yesterday, things are sort of put on hold for a couple of days. I’ve finished the second first mitt (if you know what I mean). It’s actually not as good as the first attempt knitting wise but the sizing is much better. I’m thinking […]
