Having a little bit of a giggle

Sunday, March 3rd, 2013

Today for the first time in weeks and weeks we actually saw some sunshine here up the hill. Hopefully it might start to melt some of the mountains of snow. (Down the road in Zürich and around the Lake of Zürich the snow is long gone and spring is already on its way). Spring always comes later up here – but a little bit of sun is at least a start….

I managed to find time to catch up on some blog reading this aftternoon – wow, there were a lot of beautiful mosaics of beautiful things people had been making in February…..

…and then I got the giggles….

I thought I might make a small mosaic myself…

…and then I couldn’t think what I’d made last month…other than finishing the toe of a sock…

That would be good, wouldn’t it, a sock toe…an easy mosaic…

I had such a laugh (maybe aided by the glass of White Zin that I had with my lunch). I really sat for ten minutes and just chuckled along. I think the sunshine had just made me happy and today I really felt like the pressure was off. And I laughed and laughed…

….and then I remembered that I did actually make something in February.

My Siblings Together quilt (which currently appears to be stuck in UK customs)

So there you are. I did do something – ST and four bee blocks. Actually, if I’m honest, I don’t know where I found the time.

Hey ho…life is busy, but it’s good!

    He, he, he, I love a good chuckle. I probably would have gone for the picture of the sock toe but then I’m a bit daft. Can’t believe you forgot the Siblings Together quilt, though; it’s so pretty.
