It's Friday so time to look back on the blessings of the week and join up on our host Susanne's site here.
1) Well I'm sticking with the fall picture because we have so many leaves on our streets at the moment. Although we did have our first frost of the season a couple of nights ago so I'm glad of a hot water bottle when going to bed. I don't like an electric blanket as it feels too hot for me but a hot water bottle just takes the chill off when I first get to bed. I don't like to be too hot so it doesn't usually stay in the bed very long. I often start off in socks when it's really cold but they get kicked off during the night too.
2) Our Keep Fit class was back on this week and the new floor in the venue looks great. There was some confusion though as previously our trainer would often tell us to stand for example with our feet 4 blocks apart for a particular exercise meaning the blocks of the flooring which ran from front to back of the room. The new floor runs across the room. We had to think in inches instead!
3) A Knit and Natter session on Wednesday. I'm now working on making a dog. I've finished the arms, legs, head and ears. Moving on to the body next and then his tail.
4) Another great quiz night on Thursday at the Foodbank provided by our local wine bar. They have been so supportive to us and it was a fun evening.
5) Grateful that I had my gloves with me this evening. I had to pick Grandson Nathan up from his after school football club and the poor boy's hands were so cold he was in tears. He'd lost his gloves and his new ones didn't arrive until after he'd left for school today. Anyway I soon had my gloves on him and got him in the car so he could warm up. He'd still enjoyed his football though.
Have a good weekend all.
Days and nights are getting chillier here, so I need to start digging out the gloves. I’m the same way with wearing socks to bed, and changing temperatures. My husband says I have a comfort zone of about 2 degrees. On again, off again with the covers, too.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is colder now. I wore my heavy coat last night as we had to walk through parking lots to the high school venue. I am so sorry Nathan's hands were so cold. Good thing you had your gloves.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your knitted dog!
Enjoy the fallen leaves while they are still bright and colorful.
I noticed the frost yesterday morning. Brr! I like to wear socks for bed but each morning they are always off.
ReplyDeleteThat is good your keep fit class is back on and the knit and natter session sounds great!
Days are getting colder here in eastern New YOrk as well. We had snow flurries in the air yesterday morning but the towns to the southwest of me (and a couple to the east) had INCHES. Where my niece goes to college in southern NYS she had a foot!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you could warm up your grandboy.
Enjoy the leaves!! Our trees are still shedding some but most to the north in the mountains are bare.
HAPPY WEEKEND!
