| Froogs 2013 at a Spring Flower Show, 4th April at Boconnoc. Really cold but full of lovely displays of colour. |
Hello Dear Reader,
Apologies for my absence, I can only explain as feeling flat as a pancake. Can’t explain it really. It’s that feeling of being really tired, having no inspiration and just wanting to sleep off this endless winter! I mean, I’m sure it’s rained since October, we’ve had floods, the ground is totally boggy and everyone’s homes are fusty from not being able to open the windows.
Well, according to the Met Office website, spring starts on March 20th and I for one am counting the days! Roll on is all I can say.
This enforced hibernation is good for saving money as I just don’t feel like getting out at all! I met a friend today at the supermarket cafe for a coffee and catch up and that’s the first time I’ve gone out in months. It’s grey and fuggy outside and I just want to hunker down by my sewing machine or by the fire and read.
I’ve down loaded some books and magazines from the local library website and used their free Zinio service. Another friend has kindly given me some clothes to recycle and I’ve cut them up for quilting and crafting. I’ve gone through my sewing room and pulled out unfinished projects and I’m ashamed to say I have three on the go!!! I’ve a sewing day planned in half term to share with someone and I want to get up to speed with some cutting and sewing practice until then. It’s been a while and I’m rusty.
So, it’s been the usual thrifty week. I’ve got lots to look forward to in half term with meet ups, social events, sewing day and working on some unfinished projects.
But most of all, I’m looking forward to spring!
Over to you, who else is fed up with the endless gloomy wet skies?
Until tomorrow,
Love Froogs xxxxx
