wiseheartMy friend Evie dropped by today, to visit us and have a chat with Mum. The two go on like a house on fire. :)
Evie is also organizing a cook-out in her garden next week... well, roasting meat over open fire, actually. Only for the three of us: her, our art teacher Erna and me. I hope the weather will cooperate - I haven't done anything like this for decades, literally, and she said she'd prepare everything in advance, so that I wouldn't have to leave Mum alone longer than a couple of hours. She'd have invited Mum, too, but Mum can't get into cars any longer; or rather couldn't get out of them again. Which is unfortunate, as this way we can't get her anywhere, and she would enjoy some short trip from time to time.*sigh*
Other than that, I made the page bases for the (paper) baby book that also needs to be finished this month. I don't know what was I thinking when I started this thing! 6 double pages, plus 2 simple ones, plus the cover and the binding... At least I've made a great deal of embellishments in advance, which was time-consuming, detailed work. But I'm starting to seriously worry about deadlines.
