Looking at the sofa I started to reupholster last night, and finding it a) still in one piece (rather than several, which is why I had to reupholster it) and b) looking as good as I thought it did last night!

I'm discovering hidden talents - like a complete inability to estimate how much fabric I really need to finish a job... so now I have to go to the fabric store and the market this morning, and that makes me REALLY happy!!

I love our market.

I had some great conversations today at the local cafe with a friend I had not seen in some time, and with a couple of interesting people I met who are visiting from Toronto for a couple of days.

Yesterday we had a wonderful walk in beautiful woodland and took lots of photos. In time Harry will be running round in the forest finding trees to climb and hide behind. Then we went to pick up my eBay bargain, my new dining room table!

Today we went on the London to Brighton Landrover run. The weather was gorgeous and there was about 900 land rovers of all different ages. We went with a group of friends, had a nice walk along the sea front and dinner in a gorgeous country pub.

A fantastic weekend!, shame it's Monday tomorrow

Yesterday really - a long phone conversation with my darling daughter and even a few words with my wonderful grandson. Then we went to see Kendall's speech therapist and he knocked her socks off with the progress he's made. Bought lobster for supper on the way back home - a superb day.

Today we're heading over to Vermont for the foliage festival - life really is good!

Yesterday--in my office staff meeting I heard a great story. One woman noted this was her second anniversary working here in the Library Administration office, and was asked to recount an event from the day before. We all attended a library fundraiser luncheon, and she was seated beside another long-time library employee from stacks management. They are of an age, and got talking. When the long-term employee mentioned her maiden name, my office mate realized this was a childhood playmate from 50 years ago. They lived in the same neighborhood and used to walk to elementary school together every day. She was alight when she told us this story.

My Moggie, Morgana the Flatulent seems to be recovering from her operation this week at the vets (she still isnt "talking" to me for visting such indignities on her)and I am so pleased and if you are wondering why it made me happy See Here

Ms Morgana often complains via long distance about the inadequate conditions she is forced to endure. Poor little pussy. She and Alice should commiserate about the poor treatment of calico cats worldwide.
Meantime, Seamus is out on the back porch probably for the night after he insisted on pissing off a skunk.
He stinks; my house stinks; the world stinks.
I see a long night and week ahead.
Morgana, you are quite beautiful.

I am happy because I have a real job with a real salary and benefits. This afternoon I stopped by to drop off my paperwork and join in a party for the man I am replacing. They have a Friday afternoon cocktail party - whoo whoo.
I am less than happy about Seamus' meeting with a skunk. I stink; Seamus stinks; the house stinks.

Sins, has no one told you of tomato juice bathing for skunked dogs?**bg**

I had a wonderful lunch date with my Morgan and his mom, my dau. Rue. Stayed over at their house for 2-3 hours and played with them, the dogs and watched Brother Bear for the umpteenth time. (Morgan loves it!) I don't often get the two of them alone to myself, so it was quite nice.

Oh, Micca what a beautiful girl! She'll forgive you soon enough. My Mikey had some troubles a couple of weeks ago and it didn't take him long at all to make peace with me for bringing him to the horrible vet's office where they shaved his peeper area (to insert a catheter) and made him stay overnight without his mum or brothers. Now he spends much of his time trying to style his new "haircut" as it grows back in. :-)

I was feeling really down yesterday after being told I need crutches for walking for 6 weeks when originally told just a couple of days, although only need them when walking about a lot, and not around the house. Feel a little better today even after being stuck in traffic, not moving, for over an hour! Still as I feel a lot happier this evening I thought it deserved going on here ;-)

I had a really good fundraising meeting with one of my choir members today and she likes my hand made cards! Hopefully this means more money for Cancer Research UK/Breast Aware because she is a lady of taste, so if she likes them, they'll probably sell well!

Plus I made French Onion soup that turned out better than I expected.

Lovely mushroom soup is bubbling away on the stove, after a chilly, damp day of apple picking for our "new" old cider press. The seckel pears are ready to pick, as are the Airie (aka Hidden Rose) apples. The old dead wood furnace has been dismantled and hauled away for recycling, and the good sturdy Tempwood stove put in its place. Fresh eggs from our bantams are ready for breakfast tomorrow, and we have maple syrup to touch up a cuppa tea.

These are a few of my favorite things...

The anticipation of company from Vermont for the weekend. 2 of my best girlfriends are coming for a weekend of shopping and hanging out. We're going to check out some local music tomorrow night and just have a great time, as we always do when they're in town.
