I’ve been on annual leave this week so caught up on with a few jobs outside, and played golf. Now lockdown restrictions are relaxed I’m not sure if I’m feeling like the old me any more. A lot of us talk about loosing our sewjo, but I’m feeling I’ve lost motivation for everything – not just sewing. It’s such a bit effort to do anything and often I get to the end of the day and feel like I’ve wasted it going round in a bloody daze. I do keep my self busy, as you can see from my Sunday Sevens, but I think this last 12+ months is taking its’ toll on me, like many of us out there. Bank Holiday Monday – a game of golf with Bob. We tee’d off at 8:30am as the forecast wasn’t too good for the afternoon. We just made it in before the rain and wind set in for the rest of the day. So close….. the nearest Bob’s had to a hole in one. Only 18 …

Brrrrr…. I’m feeling cold writing this. The April showers that came last week are continuing into May have made the lovely weather that we had in early April seem a distant memory! Monday was the best day of the week and as rain was forecast I made the most of the weather and headed off to B&Q to buy some paint for the garden. I’ve been putting off making a start on this as there’s so much to do. One side of the fence is complete. Rain’s put this on hold for at least another week looking at the forecast. Tuesday before golf I planted up a couple of hanging baskets. And turned my back porch into a temporary green house! Tuesday afternoon was like the middle of winter! The greens turned white with the hail stones, and then we had horizontal rain. Later on in the week was still freeeeezing but at least we didn’t get wet again. More rain on Saturday. The players at cricket don’t have to stay out in it like …

WARNING! Don’t read this if you’re hungry. There’s quite a few foodie pics this week. They’re not very exciting, well the cake it, it was bloody lovely! Another week of glorious sunshine. I only worked 3 shifts this week, and luckily I wasn’t starting until 4:30pm so was able to make the most of the lovely weather. Talking of work, I’m happy to report I have had NO patients with any COVID symptoms this last week. I think that’s a first in a very long time. Cereal with a lager. Is that wrong??!! It wasn’t until early afternoon ….not that I need an excuse. Monday evening we had out first trip out to a pub. It was a gorgous evening – no jacket required. Pork pie or a sausage roll 1/2 way round the golf course. It would be rude not to! And cake afterwards! It was one of the ladies 70th birthday and she’d put on cake and fizz for us after golf. The red velvet seen at the top (feature pic) was my …

What a gorgeous week! The weather has been kind to us here in the UK and I’ve been making the most of it, in between working. I’ve been on nights Friday through until Sunday and was really dreading work due to the pubs being open for outdoor hospitality. Luckily, I got less than my fair share of alcohol related incidents over the weekend, so it wasn’t too bad. Monday I met up with my lovely Sewing Wife, Lisa. We’ve not seen each for 6 months!! Love this lady!! I wore my latest make…..soon to be blogged….. Have I introduced you already to Georginger? She’s happy to be back out golfing too. The pair of ducks are still waddling around the course. They don’t let me get too close, I’ll have to remember to put some bread in my golf bag for them next time I play. On Wednesday I was on a day shift, this little cutie didn’t want to get off the ambulance. It’s a good job we spotted her before we set off …

3 weeks in a row! Crikey! Even I’m shocked! When I stopped blogging so much (almost 4 years ago) it coincided with me & Craig splitting up, and I just felt like I needed to keep my life more private and I lost my blo-jo. That’s liking loosing your sew-jo, but to do with blogging. But I’m happier now and as I really used to love writing my Sunday Sevens, and also looking back on them it wasn’t a hard decision to start sharing them with you again. So don’t be surprised if this is a regular post from me on a Sunday (isn). And as in the ‘olden’ days of my Sunday Sevens, there’s likely to be more than 7! The week started with a Bank Holiday, and a ‘Full English’ before we headed out for a walk. Wrapped up – it was a cold one🥶 Cherry blossom 😍 no other words needed. The first hail stone of the week was on Tuesday. It’s hard to take a picture of it in the air, …
