This Week

Hello........ I hope you are enjoying the weekend? Todays posts is a little round up of what been occuring at the Summerhouse.

This passed week has seen me start on yet another project. Not another WIP I here you cry, well this one is a very special one and from this little bit of it, I'll bet you'll never be able to guess what I'm attempting to make.

A week with pretty flowers from the farm shop, such a lovely surprise when my sister turned up with them.

There have been Pumpkins and croaking frog to spook the neighbourhoods trick and treaters, yes the frog has a motion sensor  and ribbits when anyone passes by.   My Dad got it years ago and used to love making people jump with it, so we  keep putting it out every Halloween, just as he would have done.

I've also been sorting out the Summerhouse a bit ready for Winter, removing some of the things to the house. When I realised I don't think I've got around to sharing this Spotty beauty on the blog.

It was my birthday present back in April to go with my New Sewing machine, a Button It box for the Summerhouse, I already have one by my bed but that's a long way from the Summerhouse when you're tired so this medium size box is perfect for  keeping some sewing bit in.  

Do you want a little peek inside?

It's just so pretty, with being so ill most of the year, I've not really been well enough to craft in the Summerhouse, so this box got a little forgotten I've not even got around to setting it up or using my new sewing machine.  Maybe next year I'll be a bit stronger.

Talking of health issues, well this week I went to see yet another Specialist this time a Endocrinologist. So I've lots more tests to be done. The good news is that my Diabetes has really improved to the point that my bloods show that I'm not Diabetic anymore.

It very unusual to say the least, to go from such a severe onset Diabetes, my blood sugars were as bad as they can get back in July yet three months later they are back in normal range, without any treatment so the thinking is it's autoimmune, so type 1 Diabetes? with a sudden remission, I really hope it stays that way.

So I'm ever hopeful with the tests we might be able to get to bottom of what wrong with me, as lots of my symptoms are autoimmune and inflammatory, so my previous diagnosis of ME is not really fitting anymore. As for whether it's Lyme Disease no one really knows.

Fingers crossed between the Endocrinologist, Immunologist and Cardiologist we can find out what's wrong. After all these appointments and tests I think a little treat might be needed, maybe something craft based............

We picked the last of the pears from the garden this week, you can see how low the sun is in the sky as it made such pretty patterns shining through the colander.

I've been flicking through the pages of this months Simply Crochet magazine

 Where I found the pattern for this Poppy

Also there was a delivery of some gorgeous new yarn, I'm a little bit in love with it, it's so soft and snuggly.

Well that's about all the happening from around here.

I hope you're week was a good one.

Linking up with Nicoles KCC0

Happy Crafting
