A tired day - the change in weather pressure makes my breathing hard going - so today was all about pacing myself in a slow comfortable way. But that hasn’t stopped me from smiling ...
What was a very good start, I have some very pretty silver bracelets but have not been able to wear them for over a year as my body has been so fat and bloated from all the high amounts of steroids I have been taking but due to being able to reduce the high dosage. I have lost some weight and bloating. I was so pleased when they fitted this morning.
I was teaching dressmaking this morning, even though it was hard to get out of bed, I do so love teaching, the conversation and company. I LOVE my job! After the lesson had finished I set about overlocking all the seams I had tacked on a black dress I am making. I had cut this dress out last week and then was informed that black wasn't being worn but there seems to have been a change of mind. So I need to crack on with getting the dress made.
This afternoon, when the tiredness really kicked in, I sat in the lounge and continued crocheting my Cupcake Blanket, designed by Lucy at Attic24. I have crocheted 30 stripes, 60 rows pretty rows. A third of the blanket, not including the border. I am loving the colours.
And my final little achievement of the day; every other month I have a little book called ‘Inspiring Women’ delivered to my home. It is bible study notes, written by women for women. I have used these little books for quite a number of years and find most of the monthly courses just as it is titled inspiring. However, when the July/August edition arrived, I filed it in a very safe place and have subsequently missed a whole month of study. But I made a concerted effort to look for the book this morning and I was so chuffed when I found it in the middle of lots of sewing ‘stuff’! Tomorrow is the first of the month and I can start a fresh.
Lots of little things that have made me smile today. What has made you smile?
Take care of yourselves xx
