Trend - fluffy jumper

Experience


I must tell you how many positive emotions i have got today!
I was asked to help to take elderly residents in a wheelchairs out to town.  
We took the ladies to Primark for shopping and they enjoyed it so much that i was overwhelmed with emotion.
The carers call them girls and they really are) Lovely ladies! So grateful!
I will definitely be doing this again!

I've been painting recently.
Little chest of drawers from IKEA that are perfect for all sorts of bits and bobs.
I want them to be white. 


This project of mine turned out quite well, I think)


I have a whole list of projects now))

September roses



Every day now gets shorter and darker.
And colder.

We have to wait again.
For the sunshine, for spring.
So we are waiting. Again.

Today i realized we are in September.
The pavements are covered in conkers. They are falling from an alarming height! 
The wind is picking up. You know the signs))

Quite often on Sundays we go to M&S. 
To shop and to eat a quick lunch.
A sandwich or sushi would be our choice)
