Marching on

 I'm very pleased with this design, it's growing and looking good, all the unpicking is done. Having not stitched for a while I now have a sore finger, a couple days break will give me time to heal. 

Another new author to me and a very good plot, the story throws you around, so many moments which leave you wondering what is going on. I enjoyed every word, it was very clever. Book 22 read this year.

Lilly is now coming out into the garden with us, she started scratching at the patio doors, she is scared of so much, for now we leave the kitchen door open, she can bolt back inside when she needs to, she is much braver inside looking out than outside.

The heavy rain on Wednesday kept us out of the garden, we sat and watched the birds hopping around after bugs and worms, Lilly sits and watches the garden for hours. Now back to sunny, cold blue skies, it does make me much happier, it feels like spring, but it not, March can be a terrible month for weather, a nice start to the month can often bring back cold weather at the end, as the saying goes, 'in like a lamb, out like a lion'.

Molly came to play on Friday, mum spent hours in garage having her windscreen replacement fitted, she was so good, we went to our local bistro for a drink and cake. Later she played in the garden with Lilly, they both happily ran around together. 

I am concerned for our world, the idiot in the white house is out of control, you can't run a country like a business or a playground party, bullies do stick together, make their own narrative, it's going to be a scary world for the next four years. Politics and religion are not my normal subjects here, I do feel for the good people of USA, we do understand he is not serving in your name.
