Enjoying: Digging around in the woods with my kid!
Waiting: For tomorrow to call my Mum and Dad who arrived home from their holidays.

Admiring: The squirrels as they run up the trees going round and around the trunk!
Sorting: All the finds we have made in the past couple of years-marbles, keys, tiles, bottles and shards of china. (today’s finds are in the photo at the beginning of this post)
Getting: Interested in the history of the objects we find in the mud and the creek.

Clare! Long time no read! It feels like ages ago that we were both complaining about the relative heat and humidity in China/USA. How cool to work part time at the library. And library craft night sounds like a lot of fun. Definitely buy wine! xx
Hi Isabel! Yes, I must suggest wine! Great to hear from you x
Drinking tea at the moment too! And my parents are just back from holidays – they were in Canada looking at mountains and gets and lakes! I could send you my milk. For some reason we have an excess!
Yes please, send over the milk!!! Mountains and lakes sounds gorgeous.
It’s been so long since I took stock! I really should. Loved the image at the beginning of this post. ❤
Yes you should and thanks!
I’m drinking red wine by our roaring fire, and thinking ‘yes, buy the wine!’. And you could totally do the Brooklyn Art Library project. xx
I have my sketchbook from the Brooklyn Art Library! Now I just need to fill it up.
This is a wonderful list. Thank you! How can I get your blog updates automatically?
Oops! Found it!
Yay! Happy to have you along!
