Ten things for which I give thanks this week…
1 – The sun is shining out of an all-blue sky today, in the midst of a run of rainy days…
2 – My rapper Grandson was up for a couple of days as he had a gig in Leeds and on Friday I cooked a sumptuous vegetarian curry feast for him and his cousin, and his girlfriend, which went down very well with all!
3 – Grammarly believes in the Oxford comma – yayyy!
4 – Barbara managed some housework and washing-up on two days!!!
5 – I have finally finished the list of topics for my A to Z 2026 which will be on Fabrics
6 – I therefore moved on, to step 2 – making some samples of weaving to illustrate the A to Z.
7 – I have bought a Christmas present for Barbara – in recent years, we have eschewed giving presents to each other on the grounds that we have most everything we might want but this year, I decided to rebel…
8 – Grateful to be doing this gratitude paractice and for all the kind comments it garners…
9 – I have had two poems accepted by GAS: Poetry, Art and Music, which will be published on Christmas Day!
10 – Barbara’s eldest daughter is on a solo trip to Bali for three weeks – she has been estranged for much of the last year, but bridges have been mended and we shall see her at Christmas…
A very good week ahead, to everyone!
