Cross stitch, Lego and Dippy
I started a new cross stitch last weekend. The colours are lovely and I'm sure it will look pretty when it is finished.
Haven't had much time to work on it though, as this happened -
No, a tornado did not sweep through Shortbread Towers, but my two little grandsons and their Mum and Dad came to visit! The Lego room was well used, as you can see! (Check out the "before" pictures here!)
It was lovely to have my family around, unfortunately I was not very well - a dreadful chest infection. I wasn't able to do all the lovely things we had planned for the visit. I was so disappointed. I am rarely unwell (touch wood), and of course it did have to happen when the boys were here!
However, I did manage to join them on a visit to Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow to see Dippy the dinosaur. Dippy is on tour around the UK, his original home is the Natural History Museum in London (click on the link to find out tour dates). What amazed me most was his tiny head!
The family returned home yesterday - I spend most of the day sleeping, I was shattered! Today I'm taking things easy - catching up on your blogs and doing some gentle cross stitch. Still don't feel great and have absolutely no energy.
Hubby is watching the rugby and contemplating where to start to get some sort of order back in the Lego room! I'm sure he'll enjoy every minute of it.
Love, Liz
