Hello there, I hope you had a lovely time at Easter. This week has flown by with lots happening in a short week. We had a lovely time over Easter... a 4 day break. Followed by Doctor's appointments for thyroid blood check (waiting results). Hospital for dietitian, very interesting but hard to understand (foreign accent), feeling hopeful but it's all going to take time. Doctor's today for an inflamed lump... antibiotics and a letter sent to the breast clinic. Always check and go see your doctor... it may be nothing.
My Nan passed away today, at 97 years old, she lived a good life. She had 10 children and numerous grandchildren. It's safe to say that she will be missed. Mum phoned and said that my uncle passed away 12 days ago as well.
I feel all behind lately, so a quick Friday Catch Up blog today. Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment, I'll try to catch up with visiting this week.

Easter flowers and an enjoyable read. Set in wartime Britain, not children evacuees but pregnant woman. The WI are involved and plenty of cups of tea.
Easter Cactus from Morrison's. I thought the flowers would open like the Christmas Cactus. These flowers open in the sun and close in the evenings.
The mystery KAL (knit-a-long) for Lent, finished - all he ends have been sewn in now. It's 50% wool and acrylic, so nice and warm as a small lap blanket. The Kildalton Cross, Isle of Islay.
Book read for the Bookclub. A very good read, not a psychological thriller (thankfully) but with twists and surprises, you'll definitely be entertained.
A before and after of a 'clean & treat' garden bench 'Nancy Birtwhistle' style. Using home ingredients to remove the algae and bird droppings and to preserve the wood.
At the village coffee morning, a little girl handed out crochet flowers. Her Grandma made them. It was so sweet to be given a flower and have your cup of tea and scone order taken, by a little person :)
I think she was 7 years old.

Not a lot of birthday cake left over. Morris is his name.
Happy Birthday to my son, first born, number 1 son... Nathanael / Nat... 25 years old!
I'm so sorry to hear about the recent loss of your nan and uncle. Sending lots of love. Xx

Deletesorry for your losses this past week! I see so many doctors for routine visits that when I have a carefree schedule of not seeing them it's a blessing!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Karen x
DeleteI'm so sorry to hear about your nan and uncle. My auntie died last week too, she was the last of my mum's siblings, there were eleven of them altogether, so it really does feel like I'm the elder generation now. Oooh, I love those caterpillar cakes, happy birthday to your son.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear about your nan and uncle's passing. Sending you my love and condolences.
ReplyDeleteYour Easter cactus is beautiful and quite different to the Christmas type. How kind of the little girl's grandma to crochet the rose for people. It is very pretty.
Hope your son enjoyed his special day.
Have a good weekend when it comes.
Beautiful post
