The Drop in Centre

It's time to go to bed. But my ghosts are haunting me tonight, and i don't fancy sleeping with them. My brain is restless and relentless. 

I bought Stephen King's latest book ... maybe i'll start that.  Perhaps i'll get some peace then.

I'm sorry you're having trouble, my friend. I pray that the universe brings you peace soon.

Hope you all have a nice Wednesday ... our warmer weather will be back again.. but i've enjoyed these cool ones. I didn't sleep too well, but i got some. 

I'm still working on the afghan motifs.. i think i have 40+ at the moment. In between i'm making a runner for Peter, a blanket and snowflakes to hang on the tree. I should look up some other ornaments to make.  Here are two of the snowflakes. The white one is size 4 /worsted weight yarn and the small one is the yarn i reclaimed from the doily LOL.  For any who want details. a 4mm hook was used on the large one and 2.5mm hook on the small. The large is 3 inches across and the small is just under 2 inches.

Good morning. i've been up for hours... about four, and it's now 8am. Lovely. Supposed to be a stinker heat-wise today. Stay cool!  I think there's a nap in my future and Michael is doing dinner, so a lazy day for this boy.  

Have a terrific Thursday...i have an early doc's appointment tomorrow, which is always a joy. Ugh... Meanwhile, it is... 

...so look after yourselves!

Enjoy! Say hi to the Prince and Princess of Wales if you see them!

Greetings from rainy Valencia, yes it’s raining and frankly I don’t want it to rain men, just rainwater, lots and lots and lots, please. 
No aircon on which is helping my COVID situation 😊 Another two weeks until, supposedly, I will have got rid of the viral load.  Meanwhile, today I wrote, and partially had to rewrite [thank you word docs] a prompt story.  It will be out asap, before I need to recharge laptop, the cable of which ( please note wiener dog haters) had been partially chewed and I got an electric shock as I tried to connect it.

Thanx, not sure we're staying at the same places but, if we cross the roads, I'll send your greetings!

Self care! Yay! Time for bubble baths, wine, chocolate, and lotion.

For dry skin ... of course.

Who hates them???  i'm supposedly good at kicking people out, so just point them out to me, and they are gone. You can see from my profile pic there is a dog there.  This is from a mug i own, and there is another mug from the same artist with a lovely dachshund on it, on my shelf. I got that one for Michael, who is a fan of them.

Hmm, I saw the last box you got from the Lotion Depot. Y'all must have some VERY dry skin at your house. Maybe a humidifier could help.

I'm a gold card member at Lotion Depot. I've been encouraged to buy stock by those who know me best. I'm not sure a humidifier would take care of my particular issue, though. I prefer hands-on, low-tech solutions to problems of this sort. Call me old-fashioned!

Exactly.   These evil creatures just look at you and think you are easy game.  They are correct, of course.  The smaller one is the terrorist-in-chief. Butter wouldn’t melt etc.
