A day of bits and pieces.

Today Steve started to sand the rust spots on the roof and to treat them. He's doing one roof panel a day rather than attempting the entire roof in one hit.

Beano has had his usual walks and I've divided my day up into chunks. By turn sewing, housework, reading, studying and writing.

Tomorrow I shall start knitting face cloths again just for a bit of variety.

Sounds like you have a good routine going, Hester. I have been practicing crocheting (a new skill for me) and have made several face cloths, snap!

I love Jills comment!

Hope you have another good day today
