Needlework

When I first woke this morning, I thought I would probably go to work, but once up and about, I decided that, although much improved, I was still so "thick" around the nose and face that it would be unpleasant.

So a third day off sick.

Now only 13 shifts till retirement.

I've spent a good deal of the day sitting in front of the wood burner, which I lit at lunch time, sewing.  For a change, you get a view of the reverse - my mum always said that my sewing was so neat you could mount it back to front.  I'm not convinced that it would be as effective that way out, but I certainly prefer my work to look neat on the back.
