some pics
We survived looking after the kids last weekend (Friday-Monday). Just. They weren't too bad but they're 3 kids under 6 and they all want your attention all the time. Lots of doing Lego, reading the same book like 60 times, changing nappies and feeding the baby, lots of trying to defuse arguments and get the kids to pick up after themselves.
Since then I've been stuck in bed, exhausted and in a lot of pain. Yesterday I was better at being upright but my joints were really bad. Today I was able to do some stretches which helps but is exhausting. I can't focus on anything.
Ruth is struggling with anxiety, exhaustion and inability to focus on anything.
Anyway I've managed to get some of my phone photos up on Flickr so I'll post a few here today. Sometimes the app on the phone works to upload pics and sometimes it doesn't & no idea why.
These are pictures of the market stall
Hats. Sorry about the colour. I didn't edit these & don't have the energy to. It's really dark in the hall.
More hats & gloves/mitts and a basket full of handspun. Someone almost bought the rainbow yarn. She came back like 5 times but didn't buy it. Shame.
It was cold enough that we put the handspun shawl on the dummy
Scarves and toys. We sold all but 2 of the bunnies. I'll have to make more and I think all the yay bears went. We also finally sold the unicorn. It's been there for years but people don't tend to want to pay $30 for a toy at what is mostly a trash and treasure market. We dropped the price to $10 for a friend as her niece really liked it. We just wanted it gone.
artworks and postcards. Sold a few of the strange garden artworks. They were some of my favourites.
art, badges and hair clips
embroideries and felt art.
I have photos of the garden and the cottage up at Hill End but it's a pain to code.
