Friday bank holiday

These were a gift from a friend

beautiful colours, perfect for a cold and wet April day

 Postie has been, these will enhance my stash

I use loads of these three colours, 

each one equals 53 of the 8 meter skiens 

this is a cost effective way of buying them

storage is another matter

 The cats are not moving from their warm spots. 

 Free flowers

I have compost to re-pot all my orchids

 This plant has been in a spot far too cool for it

so it complained by loosing all it's leaves

but it's happy again, so it will be a lovely as ever. 

It's just so cold again today, we have had some rain, but not loads. I managed to get out and walk at lunch time, it's becoming a good routine, now I must start to walk in the evenings, I am averaging over 7,000 steps each day, yesterday I almost got to 10,000. We have lovely walks around our house, we are close to the waterfront.
I had a review in work today, all good, soon I will have been there 3 months, how quick time goes, everything is settling into routine, I now understand my role and have expanded it to help where needed.
My brother has not made it to our house, he has hurt his back, so we will visit him later in May. So just hubby and I for 3 days, it's farmers market tomorrow, so we will pop into town, nothing we need, but I do like the farmers stalls.
I purchased 12 fresh eggs yesterday, a lady in work has chickens, which is very pleasing to hear, I would always rather get eggs from her, she apologized because the shells was not clean, tomorrow morning we will have poached eggs on fresh made bread.
