So this will be a short post this evening. Unfortunately my back is playing up and I have been in a lot of pain today so everything has taken time and hurts. Not a good combination. Trying to organise washing when bending hurts isn’t easy.
I have spent the best part of the last hour talking to my husband who now must be the best part of 8 hours into a journey that should only take 3! Apparently the M5 is closed, there are no diversions properly signed. So I have been trying to find a route and redirect him. It has been quite a challenge!
I went to the gite to collect the washing and to sort washing up and rubbish. Whilst I was there a woman from the Mairie arrived. She had stopped me a couple of weeks ago and asked whether I would like an article written about the gite to go in the commune magazine. She she had a guided tour, asked some questions and took a photograph of me!
I haven’t done any crochet or knitting for the last week which is unheard of, I have been very tired and I had lost my mojo a little. This afternoon I have spent a little time sewing up some slippers that I knitted a week or so ago. I am going to add the non-slip paint to them so it will be interesting to see what happens.

Until tomorrow…
Those slippers are such a pretty colour. Sorry you have been in pain today. It’s not easy having tasks that simply can’t be put off even when you body says stop.
Really great news about the offer of an article though. That is a huge positive !
Nothing wrong with having to postpone a pleasure when you have other things that you need to get done. When you come back to the crochet it will be more enjoyable and relaxing to do it with the other jobs in hand. Xxx

I am beginning to crochet again and enjoying it. However my back is awful and maybe I’ll have to find a chiropractor or similar.
