On the spree today!

I went shopping today! :)

Got 200 sewing machine needles for a friend - 100 80's and 100 90's. Got the August issue of British Patchwork & Quilting and Sewing World Got two half metres of fabric - both beige backgrounds, one with a Paisley pattern, one with sewing things -scissors, pins, thread, and stuff.

Then we went to Canterbury Wholefoods and I stocked up on chocolate buttons for the next set of squishies.

Finished off at Whittards, where DH bought some coffee beans and I got another of their instant teas, which I like better than squash.

Not a long trip out, but a milestone in my recovery, and quite enough for one VERY hot afternoon!

Earlier in the day DH bought some long handles loppers, and I had another go at savaging some more off some of the bushes in the garden. There's a 3 foot high heap to be chopped down into little bits and taken to the tip in bags. He took 8 bags there this morning, from Richard's efforts yesterday!

I hope this fabric inspires me to get back to the sewing machine! :) Mind you, I have yet to unpack the stuff I bought just before going into hospital! It's still in the bag upstairs!

That's a good idea! But as I had to cancel the teaching, I'm not quite to flush as I hoped to be this month! :(

Sounds like an eventful shopping spree Kate ;o)

I like the whittards Turkish apple with lots of ice ( note to self must get over to a whittards soon)

I hope you got to unpack the bag left unpacked from before as it might be getting fondle withdrawals ;o)

Great to hear you're on the mend - theres nothing like a little S.E.X. to help recovery I always find...

Hiya there Kate

Good to hear/read that you are joining the land of the hot and sweaty again! I think you did a great deal given how hot it was here yesterday.

If that fabric doesn't inspire you, maybe you should send it along here and I'll see whether it is faulty fabric or you're just not ready yet.....

Hope you've put those choc buttons in a nice cool place or they'll be choc splodge-I speak from experience here having had a Ripple bar last week which didn't so much ripple in the mouth as glue itself to the roof of the mouth in one dollop!

Keep on with the good recovery.

Didn't get a lot of fondling done, but I did got out there again today with the loppers and lopped off a few more heaps of stuff for the tip! Our garden now looks twice the size it did on Friday morning!

Just got to get rid of the swing frame and the slide... There's only enough room for the climbing frame, and James has grown out of the others.
