Sunny Days


Hello....... Over the last few days we've been enjoying some lovely warm sunshine here in the UK and I have been making the most of it.


Out in the garden my favourite Geranium is in flower again,  how I love it's gorgeous blue


and things are starting to flower over in our wild flower border.


Flowers, Yarn, Pirates (we'll get to that in a bit ) and sunshine what not to make you smile


Spending some precious time outside sitting in the sun


admiring all the May flowers


and starting on Junes book (early) while soaking up the last bit of sun while I can.  Daphne Du Maurier 'Frenchman's creek' I never read one of her books before but so far I'm enjoying it.

 I have now restarted my antibiotics for my Lyme Disease, and for me sitting  out in the sunshine is no more for the foreseeable future as they make me allergic to sunlight :(

I hope you were able to enjoy the sunshine over the weekend too, the weather here has come out in sympathy with me, as I type we are having a torrential downpour and thunder storm.

In Happier news I made it to a folk music night this week, I've not managed to make it to my local Folk Club in over a year and a half as I just couldn't manage to get up the stairs,  but I discovered one was been held in a local pub, so went along with some friends I was very nervous but manage to perform three songs, two of my own.  So lovely to go along and listen and play.

Linking up with Small Things Yarn along
Happy Crafting

  4. I'm so happy for you that you got to sing and enjoy the music - what a treat for you, and for others present - and good that you were able to enjoy the sunshine, while you can! I still love that geranium with its awesome colour. My Mum used to read Daphne Du Maurier but I haven't - I hope it turns out to be a good read for you Clare. Keep well! Love, Joy xo
