Favourite Clothes

My favourite Winter clothes this year are corduroy jeans ( black and brown), t shirts or blouses and a cardigan to match.
Today we have been looking after Saoirse while mummy and daddy move. She came in a lovely cardigan that her grandma had knitted - she is a brilliant knitter and knits lots for the children - so I decided to take a photo of that.

 We had a lovely day with her but now we are very tired.
Dinner is a very serious business

 
There is nothing like a good conversation

Wednesday View

I took my view twice today
Haven't felt brilliant today and I spent most of the day asleep.
 This Morning
Skies just like my mood today
 Mum used to say a tiny patch of blue like this was only enough to patch a sailors trousers.
 This afternoon
Lovely blue skies
and I feel much better now

Monday View

It's a great topic for me today as Roland decided to tidy some of the garden.
 
He dug up this parsnip . I don't think it is edible but it gave us a laugh.
 
Ready for digging

 My bit of the garden. It needs some TLC.

My world in 7 words

Jo, Sunday, cinema, coffee, pop, popcorn and butties
 
The last challenge for this week and Jo and I went to the cinema to see Frozen.
The film wasn't at all what I expected from the trailer but we both enjoyed it so we had a good afternoon out.

Pyjama day practicing making paper pompoms
Using some tissue paper I had in my stash I've been practicing making pompoms
as I want them to decorate our party room.
They will be in silver and white.
I've ordered the tissue paper from Ebay - never shopped on there before.
Half done
 The finished products
 
I do need more practice as they aren't very round yet.

My World

Tomorrow I should have been going into hospital to have a cartilage dealt with but when I got home from holiday there were 2 messages on the answering machine asking me to ring the appointments office and a letter to say my appointment had been cancelled and another one made for 5th February so more waiting.
My world so far this week has been the house since I got back from holiday 
My world in one word 
 Ironing
After our holiday
 
My world in 2 words
TV and Football
We seem to watch rather a lot of this
My world in 3 words
 Good hair day
been to the hair dressers

I've caught up now and having a good think about tomorrow
 
 

Inside

We were away this week and for some reason I couldn't download my photos. Also  neither of us were  feeling well for some of the time so we didn't get about much.
Anyway here are my photos for the inside week.
 
Inside the house
 
 Inside a bag
 
The coffee machine
 
The cupboard above the sink
I love these draining cupboards

Building
 
 Last but not least
Restaurant(surprise)

Pink, Purple and Brown

I thought I would have some trouble finding pink and purple as I am not keen on either colour but I managed.
 
Pink
I think the pictures are self explanitary

 
Purple
Some olive oil soap we were bought as a present
 The flowers on my very old dressing gown also bought as a present
Brown
I love brown and wear it in various shades
 The picture over our fireplace
 And some of the oak furniture passed down in the family
that I love
Spending today packing etc ready to go away tomorrow.
We're going to Gran Canaria for a week. We have never been before so I don't know if I can get on line while we are there.
