wiseheartI've started making the first baby book for October; that is, I made the basic shape of it, which is always the most boring and work heavy part.
I used this tutorial by Rosa Kelly as a template, although mine won't be half this over-decorated when done. I've made baby books like this twice or three times already, so I'm fairly used to it by now. It is a good basic design, and one can change the embellishments any way one wants.
Today Mum volunteered to cook, making the world's most excellent Wiener Schnitzel with new potatoes. Yum! We had the lopsided cheesecake from yesterday for afters, so it was a proper Sunday meal.
Afterwards I had a long, lovely phone chat with a colleague; apparently, I'm getting over my phone phobia caused by the various official calls in the last two weeks. I'm relieved. It's hard to be in lockdown without outside contacts, and hearing a live voice helps so much.
Restrictions will be loosened somewhat from tomorrow on, but I'll have to remain very careful nonetheless, because of Mum. Still, I have to go and buy my monthly card tomorrow, as well as some craft supplies, assuming the Auchan supermarket has them. It will be an extra trip, outside of my grocery hunts, but I'm almost looking forward to it. The same time I'm also nervous because of the possible exposure, but some things have to be done.
