:: The Land Of Counterpane...

Heart pattern thanks to the very lovely and long time favourite Bella Dia

SO.

I am of the mind that if you put on a dress and some make-up you will feel WAY better. Actually, this is not always the case.  Despite the putting on in both departments I am a bit too peaky to get out of bed.  How annoying!  Argh.  I have watched ten thousand things on iView and lots of DVDs and I am crocheting and trying to eat lots of soup and get better better BETTER!  It is taking longer than I would like.  Can you please tell me how to hurry up this part of the being sick thing?  Is there a trick to it?!

Trying to find things to do (apart from sleep) I looked at my Google Reader and there were 1900 unread items... so I looked at about 200 of those and then hit the 'Mark All As Read' button.  1900 is even too many things for me to read. And you know I am a bit of a mental case with the internet....  In a nice way, of course!

It is a bit hard to juggle school pick ups and party drop offs with me slacking off in bed. Poor Cam.  He is holding down the fort in the shop AND at home.  I think he might need a big snooze after this....

Speaking of lying down, I have been crocheting these hearts and a super colourful mixed up blanket for Max and the beginnings of a big hexagon blanket for Rin and Joe...  I DO like to crochet.  And it's really good when you are not feeling well, because at least you can feel like you are achieving something, right?!

Anyhoo, I hope you are NOT sick, like me!  I hope you are having the best time... riding on horses along the beach, whizzing about in boats, rollerskating, skipping along cobbled paths, running through long grass.. that kind of thing... I hope you are doing that!

Here is my exciting life at the moment.  I have been watching ::
