Ylva's crafty corner

 I finished two blues, and should have really continued with the third, but felt it needed some color:)  Wish I was as bendy as Tara...she made just a little circle of herself...:) I tried to get a good picture of Pearl as she was sleeping with her head right into the blanket, but this is the best I could do. Every time I started the camera she turned her head:)

Can you see at the top where I had to change thread? I think I managed to make it quite subtle:) And I absolutely love the design:) I have a few more in the same style that I will make. You can have them to. Just go to The Workbasket and download them:) Now I am going to prepare myself for my new job, and then continue tidying up the house. Don't want to have to think about cleaning over the next few days as I think I will be exhausted working fulltime again after such a long time (2 1/2 years). I am totally looking forward to it:)

So...today I mowed the lawn, at least the flat bit...I had to mow, then rake, then mow again as it had grown so very much since last. I had planned to do the slope as well, and also cut the long grass along the edges of the fence, but I got so shaky and weird that I had to stop for the day. I realized that I had forgotten my thyroxine this morning...so I really have to remember to take my pills in the mornings... Anyway, I ended up with blisters on both thumbs...I have very sensitive skin on hands and feet so I get blisters way too easily...NO FUN!!!  Below you can see I have started emptying the blister...that normally makes it heal quicker... And, does ANYONE have a clue what flower this is? I found it in the corner of the garden, but have no idea if it is a weed or a flower that has got misplaced a bit...it is very pretty though:) And check out Tara and the crow having a staring match...it is quite funny watching them. This crow comes every single day checking for...

Yes, it is true:) I am starting my job on the 18th June. It is full time as an administrator/secretary. It is ongoing temporary through an agency which means the pay comes in weekly which is WONDERFUL:) It is however NOT the job I had an interview for...I went for the interview this afternoon for a 15hour/week receptionist job, the interview went ok. When I left I turned on the mobile only to find a text from hubby to say I have got a job confirmed through the agency I signed with. If I can choose between part time and full time I will choose full time any day. If I can choose reception or admin I will choose admin every time:) Life works in mysterious ways:)
