A bit of a washout...

The weekend turned out to be "not so nice"  Some work done in the yard Saturday afternoon but otherwise indoors most of other time. That's OK as some much needed housework got done.  Wash completed, and kitchen and bathroom cleaned, and the bird cages done -not my favourite task but has to be done.But I did manage to carve out some time to construct the Fabric Box I mentioned some time back.  Fun again for me to clear off the machine, and sit myself down. I followed the instructions exactly, but even managed to screw up the bottom by sewing seams on the wrong corners haha  But that's what seam rippers are for, right?  In the end it turned out quite nicely. Pati, what is the height and width of PePe ?  I put another small mug in the box along with Faith and her spear but doesn't look great - I plan to make another box because the colours on this one are not right for Faith after all. So I want to be sure to construct the box to fit PePe et als.
The plants are growing fast. Yesterday I noticed the Lily of the Valley shoots are about 6 to 8 inches now - just in the last few days. Soon the beautiful flowers shall appear which always fill be with great joy. . However, this coming week temperatures are plummeting to zero or below for a few nights. Contingency plans are in the works. It appears I shall be putting up the card tables again in the front room so we can bring some of the pots inside - those that have so far not been planted. Others outside shall be covered if possible, and others shall get sprayed early in morning before dawn. Here's hoping....
Cathy, after all the worry about Steel Magnolias rehearsal issues, it came off wonderfully for you - usually does! Good for you but what's this about a hair cut? Are you getting your hair short again? I like it short and looks good on you. I am still trying to let my hair grow but each day is a testament to my patience and endurance.I can put it into a ponytail now so much better to manage but still not acceptable yet. I think my visit to the hair dresser is approaching fast haha
Well, here's to the start to another week.  Hoping all is well with everyone. Take care
