Thank you for all your comments and emails from my last post.
I took time off to be quiet, stay at home and just relax.
In preparation for Surgery.
I've been feeling calm and cocooning...
One of the projects I tackled was a messy cupboard...
it's been a disaster for years and I just "lived" with it.
One day I opened the cupboard stuff fell out...
that was the signal to me to get serious and act.
I removed all the items and placed them on top of the dining room table.
I discarded things that were no longer needed
things that were out of date and expired.
Organized the rest of the items and popped them into baskets.
Think that I will be able to maintain order
after I took the time to tidy up.
Looking at the before and after images makes me wonder why it took so long :-))
Do you have cupboards, drawers or entire rooms that are in disarray?
Perhaps catch all areas where you close a door and look away?
Candles, books and lots of tea kept me company during these quiet days.
Tried some new teas...
my current favourite is an Irish imported tea by Barry's
very strong and rich and is decaf.
I found it at The Irish Linen Shop here in Victoria.
While I was there I bought a couple of new linen tea towels and looked at their gorgeous Irish Wool Sweaters.
Spring feels like it is going to be early...
so many flowers are blooming.
We've had rain, and gusty winds but no snow.
I've got a dozen books in my to be read pile...
am currently reading A Traitor in Whitehall by Julia Kelly.
So good...she wrote The Last Garden in England.
New to us...
Vintage Arts and Crafts Weller vase
Imagining our David Austin Roses in this pretty little vessel.
Wrote in my journal...
not daily as I had originally expected, but when I felt like it.
So many random thoughts are swirling around in my mind.
Health seems to be at the forefront.
Surgery is getting a lot of air time.
Reading up on the preparations, sorting out the medical equipment required.
Researching post op hip replacement weeks that other people have experienced...
want to have some realistic expectations.
Enjoying the Thrifted Shetland Wool Hand Knit Sweater.
It's the warmest sweater that I own...
When winter started I owned 3 maybe 4 sweaters
but since recent thrifting finds
I now have 3 more.
The blog may be quiet for another few weeks...
~ Post Op ~
when I stay home and recover and get my new hip ready for action.
Hope all is well with you and that you are enjoying life.

Take care
