Lovely day here today. A wee bit chilly even.
In some ways I miss the Waikato Fog. No other feeling like it.
Yes I realized 8 months now for my knee and Im really not far in.. so I will be pushing. and my Sister friend that is coming with me will help too if I can get her to come in with me.
I was thinking of doing a bit more lawn, I'll see how dry it is after the lunch, well after Emmerdale lol.. Does anyone else watch it? I sat there bawling yesterday lol. It's very still so I dont think the grass will dry in too much of a hurry.
Oh yes the wooden cotton reels were good. And there was a toy you could make with a match stick or toothpick, a rubber band and a slice of candle I think it was.. But yep the French knitting tool was the best. I think I still have a few wooden reels in MrPs mothers sewing box.
Something else that was in the sewing box, which is one of those 3 layer ones on tall legs that open out, was a lipstick that is in a chrome tubing.. Im thinking its quite old, well , before my lipstick knowledge time Im thinking.. I also have some lace from my grandmothers wedding dress in there.
Have a fab day everyone
The wind up walking cotton reels! I was thinking about those too while I threaded my reels yesterday. And shoebox guitars, boy we could make fun stuff out of the most amazing leftovers.
Do kids still do that today? I only know one kid up close and he is not exactly an average example...
Oh, and Emmerdale - yes it has become a daily ritual. Poor Liv, I had to tell myself 'it's only a soap Woman!' to stop the lump in my throat making my eyes leak...
