Tomorrow is my first day back at work. I’m actually not looking forward to it. We had a lovely day out today including a trip to the cinema, but since we got home I’ve been having anxiety. Not about anything particularly specific, but I think it is stemming from the return to work. I know…
Here’s another of the pictures that I was meant to share with you whilst we were in England. I took this picture quite a while ago whilst I was walking with Thing 1 one morning. He was interested in watching this bird hopping around on top of the pile of stones.
Well, this is (again) the last photo in my pre-prepared folder of photos for this series. Actually, this was meant to be yesterday’s picture but I didn’t post it because… uh… some sort of good excuse? Anyway, I do have a couple more pictures that I took before I broke the camera so they’ll cover me…
Something a bit different for today’s picture. Recently my photos have been flowers, flowers, and more flowers. I thought a feather might make a nice change!
Here’s the last of the pictures I took of these lovely azaleas. If you’re wondering how on earth I suddenly know what they are given my general flower illiteracy then that would be thanks to one of my lovely readers, who suggested that they could be azaleas. I agreed given that I like the name,…
Phew, what a busy day! I made rather a large number of cards which ended up taking me longer than I’d expected. I need to have the rest made by the end of next week, before we fly to England on the 3rd. It should be doable – there’s two weekend days, so if nothing else…
Normally the end of a Saturday reminds me that the weekend is rushing towards being over. It makes me think of all the things I was planning to get done, and the fact that I haven’t done most of them. Then I start to feel stressed about only having one day left to get things…
Happy Midsummer, everyone! Today is a holiday here in Finland as everyone celebrates Juhannus (midsummer) with bonfires, barbecues, and plenty of booze. (We do not have any of those things, but we did have crisps and fizzy.) I got to have a day off of work which was lovely. In fact I have a four-day…
There’s lots of flowers out at the moment. I can’t tell you what most of them are, because I’m not good with flower names… These ones are very pretty. There was a large bush covered in clumps of them. They looked as though they were growing in balls of flowers – a clump here, another…
There’s a little beach about 10 minutes walk from Thing 1’s home. Recently when I’ve had later finishing work days we’ve walked down to the beach after the boys have their post-nap snack. Both Things enjoy playing in the sand, and are fascinated by the water though I’ve not yet let them get into it…
