Lofts, Creatures and Egg Cosies!

It's been busy here as usual, with plenty getting done I'm happy to say!
With an Easter craft fair booked I thought I'd better do something Easter-y so I've been in mass production mode with egg cosies and egg decorations - here are the egg cosies - the eggs are waiting to be stuffed/felted/decorated - well finished really!

We spent some time at the beginning of the week getting the conifers alongside the fence all mulched up to look a bit tidier.  It wasn't long before the first cat visitor found out and decided to sun herself on the nice soft surface - this was the best photo I could get. 

She wasn't the only one either - the word seems to have gone out on the local cat network - they all seem to approve.

Mind you, once the sun comes out we do tend to gather visitors - this one turned up not long ago on the front doorstep....

He sat there quite happily on the ledge of the door and seemed to quite like the motion every time the door opened and shut, swinging gently on the ledge for quite some time!

We've also sorted out the top border a bit - we're trying to put in a number of shrubs and ground cover - it not only makes life easier, but it seems to look better for longer..  This is one of the borders we did over the last few years to disguise the fence...

The border we've been doing lately has a bit further to go to catch up - especially with the ground cover being put in at this size!

I've also finished the teachers' notes I was working on and sent them off - that was the end of the work on my desk, but before I had a chance to worry I had a phone call with three more to do - so I'm not unemployed yet, phew!

And then came Wednesday - I had one of those sorting out days.. in the loft.  I decided to go to town and get organised up there so I've thrown and repacked and tidied and I now know exactly what's up there, what's for the Boot Sale and not only where the Craft Sale stuff is, but know that it's all priced up and ready to go with table decorations, banners etc.

That's me happy - so it's back to the computer as I want to get ahead before my trip up to Surrey for Mothering Sunday, stay with my sister and then go on to my old school to catch up there... not to mention football tomorrow - the Grecians truly need some good luck - it's been a difficult time at Exeter City with injuries and results so fingers crossed, eh!
