The web is still being spun...

I have a great helper, Bella, when I'm sewing who loves to curl up to sleep as close as she can possibly get to my sewing machine - thank goodness I was only joining the selvege triangles together...
Then it was time to join the larger triangles together, and it was starting to get a little too snuggly with Bella so close... She was so not impressed when I woke her to then shift her off her warm spot...

Good news for the day is... Becky had her specialist appointment today, and he has said her tonsils are a Grade 3 out of a scale of 4 (4 being worst) and without too much bribing has agreed to remove them. So now on the list waiting for a surgery spot - he thinks it will be within 2 - 4 months time. Becky is very pleased, even though it will be very sore afterwards and 10 days off school (she's really sad about that ! not...), she is looking forward to less snoring, being able to eat without choking and best of all no more tonsillitus :)

And even better news - I've got the afternoon at home... so heading back to the sewing machine (winds are way to gusty to be out on the bike), and I've already made a pot of soup for tea from the chicken carcass from last nights roast - gosh I love being at home...

Hugs

I'm around...

I'm still about... life is pretty quiet at the moment, a little stitching, a little reading, very little cycling (mostly on the indoor trainer now - how dull and boring that is)... with the onset of autumn and lots of wet weekends, I've tended to go into early hibenation!

I've been catching up on everyone's blogs and feeling guilty that I've been tardy in updating mine.

My thoughts are with my Christchurch friends and family who had a rude awakening early hours of this morning with a nasty aftershock. I know you will be so sick of hearing it, though keep smiling you are all doing a wonderful job, weathering and getting through each day.

Hugs to all
