I am becoming a housewife! I mean to say I already have a wonderful husband and three lovely children( sometimes, I mean they are sometimes lovely, not that I sometimes have them) anyway.. this morning I found myself looking through one of the many supermarket catalogues that arrive in our letterbox on mass each week. I had been throwing them away into the recycle bin of course, but this morning I was doing the lets see what is on special and then I can plan some meals around that. There is nothing wrong with that I assure you, in fact when my children were babies I used to do the same thing, except in search of my favourite brand of nappies on sale. The problem now is that it is soo far removed from who I have become in the last few years, it seems odd. That person is disorganised and has food in the fridge that goes out of date before I get to use it, and someone who is always missing the one vital ingredient for any given dish! I have magazines spilling out from every cupboard and in sooo many stacks around the house, I have craft items all over the place, the kitchen/dining area houses paints and ribbons and pretty papers and the sewing machine and the lounge area is just one big sewing basket... I kid you not! I blame this new return to domesticity ( is that right?) on my current inability to drive. Because I can't just run down to the shops or pop out for fabric and coffee, I have had more time at home . And let me tell you, it is one big mess. Hmm, I am just getting used to Blogger as I have a blog page with Laura over at Lilly Cottage and so far, I have wiped out this whole post and then two photos..going well. Hopefully no strange pictures are popping up in the middle of the text. I think I am just going to have to be patient! OK I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I can't seem to find them. Well Stepford wife I am not, I don't think they would write a blog entry anyway.... in fact I think my domestic calling was short lived as there is a pile of folding in the lounge room, not to mention ironing. The call of the new fabric however is much stronger and I must go and make a bag, right now.
In case you were wondering, I have this little extra blog so that I can go on about my weird life, chickens, guinea pigs, dogs, and a cat, my shop, my artworks, my MS and all those other little things that I like to chat about. I will still post for Lilly Cottage, just not as long as these ramblings! Have a wonderful day, I have things finishing on eBay that I must go and check on and I will publish this so I don't lose it and then I will try and find the photos! TTFN KN Linda Lilly Cottage. Ahh just found the photo's they are at the start, how do I change that? Oh I so hate being computer illiterate!
