WOYWW #668 - Stripped

Well I managed a bit of colouring despite colouring not being my "thing". 

Don't do any of the nice shading thing you guys do, I just bung the colour on!

Other than that I've been in the garden mostly. 

Also stripping our son's old room! Some of you wondered how long it would be till it became a craft room? 

Well we've decided to leave it as a bedroom for the time being in case he visits. I just needed to rid the tiny room of all the dust and posters!

I stood on the bed base and broke it so it's in the process of being mended and all the stuff therein is on the landing - so many toys!

Here's me vacuuming and also our son's new "work" desk. Love his dinosaur. He even got a plant! Not seen the "play" desk yet!

WOYWW #667 - Space Again

It was certainly sad to drop our son off in Cambridge on Saturday to start his new chapter, but on reflection so nice to have the space at home again, a 1/3 less washing, easier to park car etc. etc. 

I made him a New Home card but that was the sum total at my desk other than the catching up with the house paperwork chores.

I'm reliving this month as February as I lost out with Valentine's, Birthday and Anniversary last month due to Covid. 

I finally made it to the garden centre and have planted up 2 of my 6 containers so far.

I visited a friend who gave me the Jesus colouring book as a "late" birthday present too, so sweet.

Anyway that's about all, managed some desks last week, getting there slowly although still coughing a bit (week 5!!).

WOYWW #666 - End of an Era

This time next week my only child will have left home to start his adult life in Cambridge. He's been trying to sort a rented house with a couple of his Uni mates ever since I got Covid-19 back in mid-February so it's been a doubly difficult time for me. 

I think I am nearly over the Covid, still coughing a bit and loads of catarrh but mainly OK, until yesterday and my dental check-up which brought on a severe attack of IBS. I was in agony for over 24hrs and finding my medication was well out of date I had to pop to Asda after the dentist to get some from there.

I tossed and turned with the old menopause night sweats all night but woke relatively pain free this morning - Horrah!

Sorry yet another week of not visiting desks last week but I truly hope I will be able to this week.

So to the main update. I SCRAPPED, yep, actually felt well enough to get out my photos this week and did a page, even got a couple of my new word dies on there too.

WOYWW #665 - Still Coughing :(

Unfortunately despite 2 consecutive negative tests last weekend I still haven't recovered fully.

I'm totally shattered and still coughing.

Managed to finish the jigsaw though.

I have been making myself go for a walk around the block the past 3 days, but really slowly.

Took some daffodil photos on my walk yesterday as it was St David's Day.
