Where did January go? Really interesting hearing about all the new/pending pups - think you have found some surrogate owners!!!
Love the poem LINDA!! Spring IS coming :-))
Very cold day here, snow showers on and off, road looks very icy. Walked around the garden and that was our fresh air for today!
Lindybird - I love your poem, very cheering.
Lots of good Television tonight. Looked out some old embroidery that I never finished as I need something to occupy me while I watch TV. Have a good evening all and keep warm.
We went for a drive down to the coast and went for a walk. Very cold in a brisk cutting wind, but it did blow the cobwebs away !!
Liz, Thank you for starting our week.
Loved your poem, Linda. We noticed our snowdrops are ready for the flowers to open. They are traditionally known to flower on Candlemas, which is tomorrow.I can't imagine why you bought a spotty dog dish. Not for the grandchildren, I hope. Their parents may object LOL.
Rita, You have reminded me that I have some embroidery that I have never finished, but I don't feel very enthusiastic about restarting it, though. My daughter is trying to encourage me to start knitting again as she has finished some jumpers for herself. She also wants me to teach her how to crochet.
Heather, Sorry your sleep was disturbed last night. I presume this is the neighbour. who bought Sheana's house. Poor dog must have been bothered about something.
Brenda - good for your daughter, doing all that knitting, I believe that it is coming back into fashion now, after a long gap. Years ago I used to knit all the time for myself and the children, I really enjoyed it and even took my knitting on holiday! My mother was very good at all those sort of things and taught me how to crochet but somehow I did not get along very well with that. I have always done a lot of embroidery, though I find it is a bit tiring on the eyes now and have taken to tapestry. I need something to do while watching TV otherwise I sometimes drop off to sleep!
Rita, like you, I also try to do something as I watch television. My OH often tells people that I don't watch television, but I listen to it. I do try to assure him that I do look at the screen, especially when needed. I am watching Country File at the moment :-))
