A deep breath...

and here we go again.

I didn't realise how long it has been since I last wrote anything here. So many projects completed and no record of them, how remiss of me! I have promised myself that I will do better in future.

This week sees the near completion of a *whispers* sewing project. A winter pinafore dress in grey fabric, to be worn with a baggy cardi, biker boots, woolly tights and a disregard for the dictates of Fashion.

Warm and comfy seems a good idea right now, the sky is grey and the house has a chilly air about it. The cats are curled up together on the sofa and its difficult to see where one ends and the other begins. All is quiet and peaceful, with the ticking of the clock and gentle snores of the dog punctuating the afternoon's progress.

The countdown, however, has begun. One and a half hours until school ends and the rampaging hoards descend once more. I shall hide in the kitchen and make the dinner. Teenboy#2 has requested Banoffee Pie and Teenboy needs roast potatoes so I'd better look out my pinny and get started!
