I'm back again to catch up on the smiles of the week. Firstly I must apologise for not visiting last week....I was just not well. I'm still not 100% but I'm hoping things are moving in the right direction....we've both tested regularly and are negative for Covid so I'm thankful for that. It's been an awful Winter bug and I've coughed so much that the muscles in my tummy are painful and I've damaged my vocal chords so life is pretty quiet here still.
I'm sharing this pic today because it was our treat for New Years Day. It may be a little dated now but we both really love a prawn coctail as a treat....I'm sure we're not alone.
We took the decorations down early because neither of us could cope with all the clutter but I thought I would share this photo with you....these were knitted by my Mum many years ago. They were all knitted using the same pattern but as you can see all 4 are very different,,,,this makes me smile every year when they get put on the tree.....happy memories.
Just look at the concentration on Theo's face. He was painting a volcano and occupying himself while he is at home. His mummy has Covid and Theo has to stay home from school until he has a negative PCR test. So far both Mark and Theo are negative on all their LFT tests. We are all hoping that, as Gina is fully vaccinated, she will recover quickly. There seems to be so many folk everywhere with Covid now.
Phoebe and Lulu have been enjoying a lot of fun crafting and creating since Christmas. We bought them some fat quarters, felt and a first sewing book as part of their Christmas present and they are really enjoying learning to follow the patterns and have made several things already. They are both doing a x stitch piece too.....I wonder who they take after :-) :-)
This is my final pic to make you chuckle today. We have both used so many tissues since Christmas that we panicked a little when we couldn't buy any tissues at the supermarket this week so my darling hubby ordered some on line for us.....I think 12 boxes should keep us going for a day or two :-)
That's all from me for this week. Even in the most difficult weeks it's surprising how much has made me smile. I hope your week has been better and you have smiles you can share with us by linking up below.
