I do thank you for your wonderful supportive comments on my last post, they were a joy to read and lifted my spirits.
I don't usually share my gifts but I decided that this one is so me that I would share the pleasure.
Drum roll please...
I was blessed with this beautiful old Singer sewing machine, be still my heart. What a joy when I saw this on Christmas morning from our eldest daughter and her little family. The fun I shall have... I intend to bring my old treadle table down from the craft room upstairs so that I can display it in the hall. It would be nice to use it now and again as well.
I have been adding to the list of what I want to get done this year. I have a dolls house that was given to me by my youngest daughter a couple of years ago. It is my intention to get it done this year. Some research has already started. Gerard and I are going to do as a joint venture. Sadly at the moment he is having a flare up of RA but one he is feeling better he will gather together the supplies needed from the outbuilding so that we can make a start.
A mammoth task but one that we are both looking forward to doing. We are finally motivated, so it is a good time to get started.
We were blessed with a couple of jigsaws at Christmas, so we have a ongoing puzzle that we are working on. We have a jigsaw board that we leave on the table and as we pass do a few pieces here and there. It does take a couple of weeks doing it this way but it is an added pleasure to our day.
The crochet baby blanket continues and I am doing well, making great progress.
I am finally looking forward and have started to make plans for projects and Island adventures. All I need now is a break in the weather so that I can get started on a tour of the village for my Grandson. I am a fair weather reporter... The vaccine programme here on the Island is going well all the care homes and NHS workers have now been vaccinated which is wonderful. The next phase starts on Monday, the over 80s. This will make such a difference to so many peoples lives.
Hope all is well with you. Has the vaccine reached your area yet?
See you soon.
