So, here's the plan....I've now got 2 weeks holiday before I start my maternity leave officially. I have a HUUUUUGE list of jobs that need doing before Bunny arrives (in approx 5 weeks!) but I still need time to put my feet up and relax and get all those little sewing jobs done that I've started and not quite get around to finishing. This is going to be my summer sewing retreat - on nice days I plan on sitting out in the dappled shade of the ash tree with my feet up sewing. The only thing that would make it even better would be a large G&T but I guess I still have to wait a while before I can have one of those! ;)

We had a great weekend with our friends Joy and Danny. We decided to go for a day out to Warwick Castle and had a lovely time! We also went for a very nice curry in the evening - I was very good and didn't have anything too spicy as we don't want any early arrivals(!!!!). Today Joy and Danny were superheros and helped John finish off the utility/craft room while I pottered around the garden supervising from time to time. The second coat of paint has been done, the freezer and fridge have been moved AND the old manky carpet and floor tiles have been pulled up all ready for me to order some nice new lino this week. Thank you soooooo much Joy and Danny! Now all I have to do is sort out all of my craft cr*p, decided on some sort of storage and then we can make a start on the nursery! But for now I'm off to put my feet up in the garden while the sun is still shining and do a spot more sewing before tea! I'll also leave you with a photo of my nice round (35 week) belly!
