Some photos..

Here are some images from the past month..

We took loads of photos - next time I'll blog photos of some of the animals..

More to add later, but in the meantime..

Everything is catching up with me at the moment - energy is low. Taking it very easy now and paying attention to pacing. The past month has been challenging, and I've pushed myself to do things that have been probably more than I could afford to use in energy terms. So a lot of 'things' are not done, my list of priorities is fluid and changing - but trying very hard not to let negativity creep in.

My hubby made it possible for us last month, to go to 'Fibre Fest' at Coldharbour Mill in Devon!
Fantastic time there. My first Fibre Fest! Took loads of photos etc. Must blog a few of those.
Came back with some lovely spinning related purchases and buttons, and more ideas than I could ever afford!

My mum is mending slowly after her operation, and thankfully results of biopsy are 'benign' (big sigh of relief!) My Dad has been brilliant - although I did worry for him too.

I'm waiting to go to ENT to sort out my breathing difficulties - now have an appointment and looking forward to that being sorted! With that sorted, who knows what else healthwise it may improve?

DIL false labour pains are being kept an eye on - baby happily has decided it wants to stay in the warm and cosy spot for longer - another phew! to the list there.

We recently went to a 'Kiwi Picnic' and took our little grandaughter. We all had a relaxing time there in the lovely countryside and woods. Was fun to watch gd enjoy the straw bales climbing apparatus! And the food was lovely! Lots of home made goodies for the table from everyone who came. Hubby made Apple Cake, Treacle Bread and Soda Bread. (I buttered them ;) .. )

My shopping order of some sewing tapestry needles (to help me sew up the seams of the little baby jumpers) have arrived, so I need to choose an appropriate time to get on with the task of 'Mattress stitching'! It's one of those things that sounds daunting, when you've got a lot to do, but once you throw yourself into it - it's quite therapeutic! Especially if you reward yourself after each seam, i.e with nice bit of cake and a cup of tea, and some dreamy music in the background!

Will add more to this post later (if I remember!)
