It's a soggy week here.

What indoor activities do we enjoy?

I could do with some motivation.


Going to the cinema
Visiting art galleries and museums
Watching plays at the theatre
Going to concerts

Or if you prefer not to actually leave your home:

Watching TV
Reading
Listening to music

I get so fed up with the tv and reading is difficult.

It is a bit quiet on here too.

I'm back :twisted: Did everyone miss me? I've been unable to look at a screen since Tues (headaches nausea).

I've been getting back into my reading while I've been offline Tem. Do you use audio books? I keep meaning to give

them more of a go but I bet I won't do so until I have no choice.

I've also-

written my Christmas shopping list (pressies)

Designed and planned a window display for sitting room window.

Listed jobs that need doing before gas man comes on Tues.

Thought out a plot for a contemporary thriller.

And found a book that I have been looking for for months (it was in the huge pile next to my bed).

I haven't got into audio books as there is very little choice in my taste.

You have been quite busy during your down spell - I hope you are feeling better now and the pain has gone.

You sound very organised Fluffy. I write lists but then I have to write another one about that one.

I think I have the same book pile next to my bed - mine has rudely awoken me in the night when it fell on my head.

^I feel better apart from the fact I still find looking at the screen uncomfortable so my 'I back' didn't last long.

Yes, I got lots of planning done but I am good at 'to do' lists and things, it's the bit where I have to get on with the

doing that I suck at :D I've planned that window decoration every year for about four years.

Gas inspection over with so that should be it till next house inspection in four months. I want my own house, or hut,

shed, cave, hole in the f*****g ground; I don't care as long as I don't have to let anyone else in it.

Anyone intending to bake anything special at Christmas? I plan to have a go at an Apple Dorset cake.

I hope you find somewhere to live that is free of disturbance.

There are places out there as my mum's landlord rarely bothers her and is quite fair with what she does with the place.

I need to get a secret Santa present for a lady at work who I hardly know. It has to be a Christmas bauble and

personal in some way to her. The only thing I know is that her other job is sheep farmer so I've been looking at

sheep that can hang from a tree on Amazon but they est arrival too late unless special delivery so I carried on just

to see how much they would charge and it was £73 for P+P obviously I canceled but now I have no sheep.

The ones on Etsy were expensive and I've never ordered from it before so I waited and now it's too late. Pressie

exchange is Dec11th. :(

There's a range in Lincoln but the website is saying they are out of stock. That is the sort of thing I'm looking for

She didn't say where she got the sheep from :twisted:

I will have a look on Amazon for the templates because I have an idea for decorating I just don't have the saw for

cutting out sheep. Thanks for the ideas.

I found the wooden sheep but they would take too long to get here too but there was this which is a kit

I can buy the felt and embroidery from where I work and it looks doable. Ok, I have a plan, I am now calmer.

I may try embroidering Baa humbug in the middle, that would suit the person it's for.
