morning ladies
It's freezing and raining. Gotta love the unpredictability of spring!
Not much planned for the day, housework and then maybe more done on the jacket. Grandson's birthday is just after his stay with us so it would be great if he could take it home with him. There will be a quick trip into town this morning to have some printing done for MrK and I might pop into the haberdashery shop and see what fabric they have to back the jacket when it's finished.
We (using the 'royal' we here
) use our step ladder quite a bit, a very handy thing to have. Ours has a bit at the top where you can put things, I use it to support my knees when on the top rung.
Yesterday we did another scrap metal 'run' to Hamilton. Was worth the effort as MrK had found a box of brass stuff in the pump shed and that is worth $$$.
MrK's drill press has died. He bought it for our business 35 years ago second hand so estimates it is roughly 50 years old. Not too shabby! He needs another one so will be looking and saving for one as his Christmas pressie. He's quite happy to have another second hand one and hopes that will 'see him out' to quote him.
Better get cracking and face the day.
Happy crafting
