Last day! Wahooooooo! Not that it’ll really make any difference to anyone. D and I will be continuing much the same as we have been.
Yesterday I FINISHED SOPHIES UNIVERSE! All 113 rounds! Done!
However, I had already decided to do extra rounds to make her bigger as I like
my blankets to comfortably fit on the bed, and she doesn’t yet. So a few more
rounds to go before she gets washed and softened. She looks good though. It’s
been fun, stressful, complicated and confusing, but I’ve wanted to make a Sophie
for YEARS. Maybe five or six years. And now I have.
Today I was up at 5:45 after having a super shit sleep, and I
was on site for 7:50am. We built raised bed planters today in the winter sunshine
so it’s been a good day, but fuck me I am tired.
We have done the tree!! Spiky spiky but it’s done. The lights
aren’t quite long enough so there’s a high chance that I’ll be buying more and
swapping them…
My winter spinach seeds are coming up, we still have roses
in flower out the front, the bulbs are all coming up nearly everywhere, and the
amaryllis is reaching for the skies with three (!) flower buds.
Tomorrow at work we shall be having a fire and making
wreaths!
