Good afternoon
Just a quick end of the week post :) What a week - such freedom :)
Firstly just being able to get to the bedroom window the other morning to see the sky looking gorgeous as the sun started to make an appearance;
The walking cast is making such a difference - much more mobile - though in turn that means more tired. I can get to parts of the house that have been out of bounds for a few months. It means I can photos in my favourite naturally lit spot again. This parcel was from a lovely friend - spotted these and thought of me;
These little paper lanterns are gorgeous - I am going to make them all up and string them up across our fireplace - the design is very Orla Kiely don't you think?
A Lush bath wand and cute little Russian doll cookies cutters too.
The bath wand has been in use - oh the joy of being able to get in/out of the bath again. The first bath lasted over an hour - such bliss. Even better - my leg no longer can be mistaken for that of a gorilla ;)
I've been out and about too. Met 4 generations of my family for coffee the other morning - Grandma, my parents, 2 sisters and little niece & nephew. I also managed a walk around the supermarket (such a treat!) - my darling Dad carried my basket for me :)
I was also able to go back my Stitch & Bitch group on Wednesday night. Really didn't manage much stitching but it was lovely to catch up with friends and have a good natter.
This morning I've been busy working on a patchwork block for a pressie for a very special friend. I've also been trying to get the last few photos taken for this months Scavenger hunt - whilst I was outside I had to snap our cherry tree. The leaves are now turning all sorts of lovely red/orange shades;
What a gorgeous day here - so lovely, I'm off out in a tick. Going with my parents to visit my other Grandma.
No males here - they all left at 7.30 to go to work together! Amazing how the prospect of wages and lunch can get 2 teenage bedroom hobbits moving so early!!
Have a lovely weekend what ever you are doing - our includes lunch out, a hobble and of course Strictly & Downton - bliss :)

Oh, I am so happy you are able to get around. Makes you feel so much better doesn't it? I remember The first time I went to the market by myself. I didn't even need to go, it was just great to go somewhere on my own and not be dependent on someone else to take me and then help me shop. I am glad you have a walking cast also. It will help you build stamina. I went back to work a month ago and even though it is only part-time, I am just worn out by days end. You seem so much happier too, I am really glad you are doing better. Talk to you soon.
You sound so much more upbeat!
Enjoy your weekend :-)
