Uninvited guest again !

Yesterday ended up being such a nice day. We went out for another walk in the afternoon, the sun was shining, the clouds were great

I even managed some time in the garden to relax with a cup of coffee.

Then I came back into my office and before starting working again, I decided to empy the bins. I have 2 bins in my office : a " normal one " and a  " crafting one ". After emptying the normal bin, I noticed something seemed rolling in the bottom ( I told you I DO need new glasses ). That's when came the scream you heard at round 4 PM not knowing where it came from. Well, Eastleigh was the location. This is what was in the bottom of my bin :

Around 2 inches. And don't you dare saying the photo quality isn't very good. I wasn't going to put my nose close t it for sure !

I can't stand crawling venimous stuff. My excuse (and that surely is a good one ) is that
I am highly allergic to them but in fact, I hate the big fat bodies. When I was in Germany there was a massive spider daddy long leg in my bedroom and I couldn't get rid of her, so
I left her there and even gave her a name, she was called Clothilde. I was OK with her because long legs and small body, but this kind of stuff here, no way.

DH had gone to pick up the kids, so I needed to deal with it. After my first scream, Rhea who was with me at the time had already started doubting my sanity, but when I picked the bin, direction bathroom toilet, still screaming, she completely gave up on me.
Now I know why the Indians used to scream when attacking the cow-boys, it's because they were scared and it gave them courage.

I managed to throw the spider and flush it but it gave me chills for the next hour. I don't like killing animals, whatever they are but there are some I just can't cohabit with.

This morning was a strange day. It was overcast but the temperature wasn't to be defined, like when you put your hand in a body temperature water and you can't feel anything.

Rhea was very happy today, hopping around between grasshopper and kangaroo style and without even noticing we walked to the complete end of the park, what was the first time since the start of her problems.

Disadvantage is that when it started raining we were then pretty far away so we got wet, but it didn't really matter ( can't believe I am saying that ! ).

This afternoon we booked squash and I am really looking forward to it but in the meanwhile, I need to work !!!



Project 365+1 - Day 188 : Project

When I found the word there was a light start of panic because there isn't anything modern in here excepted may be the classical computer and phone technology.

But then I remembered that a friend offered me this modern sculpture a couple of years ago.

I always wanted to use it as an example and make a similar wood sculpture but as everything else, it is on a waiting list. Good news after yesterday though as you all advised I don't redecorate the butterfly box, so the sculpture job just went one place up the queuing ladder !

Take care everybody, xxx
