wandering the house

 Still haven't finished my trousers ...sewing interrupted by:









holidays, a trip to visit family,

lots of playing...
Lots of paddling...and changing out of wet clothes.  I cannot quite get back into termtime mode now that holidays are over.  I have done no sewing unless you count sewing badges onto a cub scout jumper, oh and I sewed an apron.  It was so utilitarian I almost forgot I had made it.  

I have done no blogging as possession of my laptop seems to have transferred to my children. 

 I can't manage to sign into my blog on my tablet.  Though I have lost possession of that too.  Pesky children.....while they hog the technology I wander the house, prodding my seedlings, folding endless laundry, looking at my almost finished trousers, but not really getting anywhere.  I have developed a new addiction to reading hippyish blogs about eating foraged food, wearing second hand clothes and creativity...I am not sure why but they just interest me at the moment.  

  I am thinking and probably over thinking Me Made May.  So much thinking that I have done nothing about it.  Procrastination is a great thing...  I am of to daydream some more over the kitchen sink.

    Looks like lots of fun! I'm sure I'm overthinking memademay too & should really just get myself signed up. I hope you get your tablet back soon, though prodding seedlings & daydreaming sound nice & relaxing!

    I love procrastination... I could do it for hours...

    Seaside looked fun, is it near to you ? But then if the sun is shining you may as well go with the moment... other bits of life can just wait... there is a lovely poem by Louis McNeice about a boy in summer going down a hill on a bike...

    I have swapped to a tablet after my son managed to break my laptop... cannot update blog with it though... feeling somewhat technologically challenged... and I can't sew as we are revamping the bathrooms...but... the flowers are out...

      Sadly the seaside isn't near me. That was at Exmouth in Devon, three hours driving away. I set my blog margins too wide for my tablet, so can sign in but layout is awkward. Really need a blog spring clean.

    You made me laugh about reading the hippyish blogs! I go through fads too. Right now I'm into people who live in RVs! :) And I think I'm going to do MMM but it might be with only 5 outfits all month, we'll see, ha!

    It looks like you had a lovely time at Easter. I know what you mean about procrastination, I have been doing a lot of that this week.

    Thanks for your comment! I too am very good at procrastination - I 'sorted out' my stash last night - I now have more plans than I can hold in my head, have actively avoided my sewing space this morning and spent time trimming a hedge instead. To be fair the hedge trim is long over due. I am enjoying being in the garden again after pretty much ignoring it of a year in favour of a now defunct allotment. I am hoping that Me-Made-May will spur me into blogging some of the clothes I have made in the last few months!
