Weaving on Wednesday

Ady took Davies and Scarlett over to Liza’s this morning where they had a very nice time watching Bolt, which I have heard a different plot line of from each of them :lol:. I had my hour home alone which I spent mostly emailing photos to Ady to print off at work for the craft fair tomorrow night. I was so distracted by this that I totally forgot I was supposed to be at work at 845am instead of 9am. 😳

Fortunately my boss found this funny rather than worthy of getting cross over.

I did two hours of shelving which I don’t often do that much of and don’t really enjoy really (putting returned books back on the shelves either in alphabetical or dewey decimal order). I quite enjoyed wandering round with armfuls of books today though and spent lots of time shamelessly eavesdropping on people’s conversations which was quite enjoyable.

I collected Davies and Scarlett and we called into Emmaus charity shop on the way home as I wanted some red and green material for ragrugging. I got a couple of pillowcases and a towel for £2 and gave the children 50pence each to spend on whatever they wanted. Davies found a Star Wars micro machine falcon spaceship thingy (I don’t know, I’ve never watched it ;)) and Scarlett wisely invested her 50 pence in two more cuddly toys :rolls:

Back at home we watched 3 episodes of Walking with Cavemen and I weaved and chopped up material and made 2 more ragrugs (small ones). I made their tea (salmon, with potatoes and Scarlett had salad too, we’re really getting better with food) and then we went off out again to Badgers.

Ady joined me and we had a walk to Waitrose. I was really cold and windy and Ady had had a testing day at work and wanted to unload all that so it was a dreary combination 🙁

Back home again the children showed Ady their new treasures and we read a fair chunk of The Perfumed Pirates of Perfidy (Charlie Small) which had arrived at the library this morning for us.

I finished another rag rug and watched The Apprentice. Ady cooked dinner (more salmon and more salad) and Davies was finally asleep before 10pm.
