Re: Taking the plunge

Thanks @Maggie ♥️ It felt so nice to give it to Middle and to see them snuggled under it. Definitely a comfort thing in tricky times. I am dreaming of having a proper quilting machine to go in a huge craft room right next to a woodshop 😂 Maybe by the time that happens we can build a teleporting device so we can all get together and play 😉🤔

Those dinners sound healthy. Diet is tricky, especially on your own I imagine. I would lose all motivation to try if it was just me I was feeding.

I will look forward to seeing your pics when you share. I'm so glad you had that little boost of confidence 😊

Awww, I can just see Middle, snuggled in love @CheerBear Anything that brings comfort @CheerBear anything. Even dreaming of a proper quilting machine, in a large craft room, next door to the woodwork shop.👍👍👍 The teleporting device sent my brain into a bit of a scramble though. I could see myself attached to a large pole, with binoculars. 😂😂😂

Its super hard to cook for yourself @CheerBear, but I just couldn’t face another can of baked beans.

Thanks. I alway struggle putting my stones out there on craft corner, but it’s good to keep trying.

Are you going to share your quilt over there ?

Re: Taking the plunge

If you could travel anywhere and have coffee anyone (past or present, real or not), who would you meet with and where would you go @Maggie? That's a big one for a little hour in the day haha! I often wonder and dream about who when and where.

I think it has to disappear soon so I can't really share over there ⬇️. Most of the things I do now have to stay a bit shhhh.

It's nice not needing to rush around getting ready for work this morning!

Re: Taking the plunge

It is a big one @CheerBear . One person came to mind, straight away, but she’s passed on now. You always remember the people who were kind to you @CheerBear , always. I will think about that today. I think where would be like a sunrise/sunset, very quiet place. It wouldn’t be noisy, or popular, or crowded.

I guessed as much with the quilt pics. I’m so pleased I have had a look. Thankyou for that. It really means a lot.

Yes, time before work today. I hope your morning is a nice one.

I both smiled and felt sad reading that @Maggie. Memories of someone kind ♥️ It would be amazing to have the chance to spend time like that.

Two are up now, doing school work. I'll have plenty of time to have a shower and tidy up my room before I start which is good.

It's always a nice morning when I get to share coffee here.

Big ♥️ to you. I hope your day has good in it.

@Maggie @CheerBear @eth @Shaz51 @NatureLover @Emelia8 @TheVorticon @Appleblossom and all who pass. Party went well and everyone ate too much lol :D. Had so much Thai food and yummy pastries for dessert. Better go for a walk today to walk some of it off :). Wishing everyone a wonderful and caring Monday. Love pea x

@Bunniekins Parties are definitely places where we eat too much. I’m really glad it went well. 🍰🍧🍤🥮🥘

I hope the weather is good enough for your walk today. Sending 💚 to our pea.

I can totally relate to that, @Maggie - it's such a limited diet, isn't it? I wish you could share with me, too, lol... 😄

Thanks for your good wishes - yes, I really struggle when it's too rainy to spend time outside. I think today and tomorrow will be OK, despite "showers", but then the following 5 days are rainy...eeek!

I hope today is a good one for you...

@CheerBear I'm impressed with your quilt, and I like the bright colours! 🙂
