And its a fine tuesday

Honest.

Well no, to be honest its raining, but I don't care because I am off to Aberystwyth to see my beloved this evening and then either tomorrow or Thursday I am off to the Collinette Wool Mill which should definitely be fun (must leave card at home).

Ok, so on to my potd:

Train

Good Morning World

Well, I wouldn't say that good, and according to my clock it is 12.01, which is technically afternoon, but its getting there. I am looking forward to 1 pm when I can pick up my knitting and work on this sock that's for certain.

And it got to be lunchtime and I got to work on the sock, hooray for that.  Now onto the actual plan of the day which was what I was meaning to do.

Get up
Shower
Empty washing machine and refill
train and read new book
work, be busy for a change
Lunch and sock
more work
train and read
more washing
pack for trip to Aberystwyth
clean kitchen and bathroom
hoover
talk to American Me
Bed

Good Morning All

Why yes, its another sunny morning in Wales and I have remembered I have a blog - why yes miracles do happen sometimes.

Anyway, on to the point of this post - I used to be a member of a forum on Ravelry a fantastic site for all you knitters and crocheters out there where I used to post a Plan for my day, now since I have left the forum, I find that I am missing this element of it. So this morning, while sat at my desk in work, avoiding doing any, I had a lightbulb moment - Beci, I say to myself, you have a blog, use it.

Therefore, I now present, my POTD

Up
Shower
Train and new book started - Jack Flint and the Redthorn Sword by Joe Donnelly (I shall try and review later, should finish it on the train tonight)
Ring the boy who has contracted the dreaded lurgy and make sure he is ok
Work
Avoiding doing any
Have lunch
avoid doing any more work
Train home - hopefully finish book
Home
Cook food
Sit in chair - see if last weeks Xfactor is being repeated - if so watch
Knit
Chat to my American Twin
maybe write
Sleep.

I really should do some work....

but playing on the interwebs is so much more fun....

I am supposed to be typing attendance notes, but I am spinning them out until tomorrow when the boss is in Northampton.  So, I decided you can have some more picks instead. I am doing three mystery knits this month, so I present piccies of the projects so far!

And I am bored again

So, as they won't let me knit or crochet in work...  Horrid rotton bosses that they are, I have signed up for a reading challenge instead....

This one any excuse to re-read kids books if you ask me...
