Yesterday was sort of wet with almost 1/2" rain falling. The high got to 2.6C. This morning, it is 2C, the north wind is blowing, and it's wet. They say snow but we get a few flakes and then rain. I'm okay with that.
Lifestyle
I charged around and got the house cleaned up and laundry folded. The house wasn't that dirty but it was nice to have it really clean for company.
After lunch, I got things ready to cook dinner for my neighbour and I. We had a wonderful turkey dinner. We enjoyed it very much as beef will be served at both of our family's house this Christmas. That will also be delicious.
Sewing Room
Day 4 - Part 2 of the sewing room clean-up was accomplished. The design table was cleared off, sorted and put back on with one container gone. The table was washed (and it was dirty) and I now feel like I can work in that area.
I did not do the peg board but it will get done when I do patterns. It looks sloppy but in reality, it is organized.I moved to the other part of the design area. It has been kept cleaner and only needed the dust wiped off the old desk. I use this area a lot as I bring up tutorials I've saved, read patterns for the dolls, and look at and edit embroidery files.
I am going to have to hang a wall hanging on that empty wall. The floor has not been washed but it will get done when I'm finished this end of the sewing room. Next up - the closet.The cutting table got a work out in the evening. I had put the cardinal wall hanging I need to finish on it to show my neighbour what I wanted to do. She promptly told me to finish it as it is. It is on the to-do list for 2023. We then looked at the horse wall hanging I want to make for daughter. I've had it 13-14 years and it has scared me to death. My neighbour is going to help me with it so I can complete it this year. I'll start it in January by doing the eyes. In the meantime, I will fold them up and put them away as the cutting table needs to be clean for the next part of the clean up and a bit of sewing.
Knitting
I did look at patterns for the Gotz dolls and have one I would like to knit. I will get up the yarn and needles to start it in the next couple of days.
Today
I have to clean up the kitchen as I refused to do the dishes last night. If possible I would like to start a batch of bread which can proof while I have son out for physio. I can finish them this afternoon. I would like to put away the projects on the cutting table. Tonight I may knit but that remains to be seen.
Until the next time......................................................
