What You Doing Wednesday Week 15

Happy 4th July to everyone!

I hope everyone is safe!

I've been reading on a lot of blogs from

America about the awful fires

you've been having!

I wish I could send you some of our rain!!!

We are the opposite and are all rained out.

This week is a bad week for my CFS :-(

I'm a bit worried as my left foot

is getting so painful I am struggling to walk.

The disability can throw anything at me

but it scares me when it means that

I can't function.

Enough of that positives for the week!

We have set our bird table up so

Little Red can reach it.

He now gets up every morning and fills

it with bird seed etc.

I got him a little book:

   

It is a fantastic little book!

The book has a page on each bird

which tells them all about them.

At the back of the book it has

a picture tick list of all the birds.

Little Red has ticked off the Black Bird

& the sparrow already!

He loves the fact he can sit

and watch his bird table from the conservatory

and tick the birds off himself.

The pictures are big so he can easily tell which bird is which

and the tick boxes are big as well.

Little hands don't make small ticks :-)

I think we need to practice in front of the mirror!

Everytime you say smile a funny face appears :-)

I am reading 

The Daughters of Dracula (The Stoker Sisters)

by Kailin Gow at the moment

Kindle:

   

Book:

   

So far it seems a really good book!

It's an 

Award-Winning Finalist in Women's Literature 2011 International Book Awards

I've only read about 14% of the book so far.

It's a period book

and so far we are just learning about the sisters

and their background.

I think we have been introduced to the Vampire

but we haven't been told about him yet.

I'll hopefully finish it soon and give

you the full low down.

I have a bit of a confession.

When I first started blogging

and entering giveaways

I started following hundreds of blogs.

I love reading them all but it got out of hand.

I now often have over 1000+

posts to read.

When I tried to remove some I found there

is a fault with google reader

You can't stop following any.

If you are a blog I follow I do read your posts

but due to the qty I just

can't comment often.

I'm sorry I'm not a better blogger

but I thought I would let you know why.

Now onto what I am making this week:

I've got some sad news :-(

I frogged my Tree of Life blanket.

I was thinking yesterday and realised

I needed a project that is repetitive

and not a complicated one.

Looking at the patterns I knew I would always have to be concentrating.

So on a positive note I have decided to make a basket weave blanket instead.

Yesterday I frogged and then started the new blanket

It doesn't look much yet but hopefully it will soon.

I am also making a Santa Hat

This is for my next collection of Patterns.

I'm planning on releasing a

Winter Wonderland

Pattern Selection.

I hope you are having a good week!

I hope everyone from America 

has a brilliant 4th July!
