Chunky rustic look mug cosies in shades of brown..one has a blue mix running in it ..the other tans and purple

£7 plus P&P

My new cushion cover, its actually a bit darker brown that this shows but its lovely and warm to snuggle on as its wool

spent most of the night either throwing off the duvet..due to night sweats or sneezing due to blocked nose/runny nose..decide to just get up at 5.30 thought id take a lemsip..which i hate, but its helped a bit..thought id snuck out of the bedroom without hubby waking but a few mins later he came downstairs, seems when i threw the duvet off in the night it landed on him and he woke up thinking he was suffocating..still ....nice for him to share my troubles lol
I have been a good girl and asked Santa for bird seed, fat balls and peanuts to feed the birds..my hubby and i dont swap gifts but my friend Kate and i give needful things so that was what was on my list...we will be swapping gifts later in the week, will need to find someplace to store them in the garage, i use sealable plastic bins because one year...i knew we had a mouse, but i caught him.....then later on i decide to get a rug that i had in there to put down in my shed..very posh shed, i have a carpet in it...i pulled out this rolled up rug and it turned out the whole of the inside was full of peanuts..the little mouse had been storing them in there one at a time, so now, all nuts and seeds go into hard plastic containers.

Saturday the 1st December and ...

Its SNOWING !!! big chunky flakes that are lying on the ground on top of the thick frost..the moon shining bright, no walk on the beach for the dogs, much as i was looking forward to it, i know exactly what the north sea wind is like and what inland feels a bit chilly is more like -5 on the beach ... so ,off to the woods it is

Some weeks ago, i sent this and a mug cosy off to a customer, paypal sent me the wrong address, i sent it recorded, but it was never returned to me...now finally
..Update...
got a letter from the royal mail a couple of weeks back saying they were passing it to there lost depot..i presume the depot isnt actually lost,but its where lonely packages go to live..anyway, today i got a letter and a cheque to cover my missing stuff and postage...so after me being not very nice to the Royal Mail, let me just say Thanks! it pays to send recorded and follow up if it goes astray, but most of all, take pics of whats inside the package and have all reciepts of your outlay, i sent copies of my paypal expense for yarn etc..so im a happy bunny,.... no im not, ive just sent back my android tablet at a cost of £7.55 special delivery for a refund, and i want my postage back!

I have been absent for ages, but ive not been lazy , i have been knitting and crocheting, working in a charity shop, now finished there, but on a new list of relief workers in a charity bookshop, cant wait to start there ! Three tea-cosies are off to new lives keeping Canadian teapots warm, and many pairs of mitts are dotted around the UK helping hand stave off the chill, and by the looks of the forecast..i will need my pair tomorrow
