Puttering indoors
May. 7th, 2022 11:21 pmI'm still trying to recover from the three-week-long computer-related stress. My nerves are so frayed, I react much stronger to Mum's age-related oddities than I ought to. At least I manage to react in the inside, without hurting her needlessly.
But at least I managed to do some crafting today. I'm working on the last page of the twin quiet books and am currently trying to reproduce this page:

I've first made it a few years ago for Theo, the recipient of my very first quiet book. The new ones will be quite similar, only with slightly different colours and I've used flower-shaped beads instead of sequins. I hope they'll turn out well - those flower-shaped beads look great indeed and are surprisingly easy to work with. I'll try to buy some more at Kik on Monday, but with my luck they might be already sold out. *sigh*
Other than that I didn't do much today. Dealt with the weekly laundry (although Mum helped a bit). Printed out some notes for the next choir practice, now that I can actually get into Google Drive, watched some Blaulicht Report while stitching, solved some crossword puzzles, since I was lucky enough to find the newest 100 Seiten Bastei Rätselheft yesterday at the newsagent's... and not much else. We still had some leftovers, so I didn't even have to cook. Tomorrow is asparagus day, however! Yum!
