February 1st
I have now got a picture of Corey-James with Bluey and Bingo that I made last month.
Corey-James with Bluey and Bingo.
Nice walk with Luna, not too cold either. Finishing off my January's Blog. Lots of pictures to put on this month.
Doing a bit in the garden as a lot of plants need cutting back so there will be new growth in the spring. Pulled up a few weeds as well. Looks better now and somehow bigger too.
Bit more of the Aran blanket. Just about all the blankets I have made in the past have bean in double knit wool. Aran is thicker, so the blanket soon grows. Not sure who will get it yet. I have two people in mind.
4th
Not too cold today. Cleaned up stairs took most of the day. I am knitting a hat for a friend Ursulas, Teddy. The first one I was not pleased with so I redoing it.
5th
Haircut for me, it had got so long, looks good now. Debbie who is my hairdresser loves Luna and kept cuddling her. Luna was ok with this of course.
I have finished off the hat for my friend Ursula she came round just as I was sewing on the bobble. She was pleased with it.
6th
B12 today and the dentist. Both went alright.
I have bean saying I am going to try running again as I think I could on a good or better days. We have a running shop on the high Street, not far from where I live. The Lincolnshire runner. I know them most of them who work there as I used to run with two of them, Marcus and Kaoru. Originally it was run by Pete who has now retired. His son Keith took over. With Mark as the Manager. I took my past running shoes to see if they would be any good. I did not think so as they are old now. The mid soles breaks down and the shoes becomes stiff. Kaoru checked them over and said no good, falling apart from the inside out. Bought in 2009. I tried on a pair and they felt good, Paul is buying them for me, as its my Birthday on the thirteenth February. I used to run in Nikes but these are Saucony I have had these be for. I got ten pound discount as well. If it turns out I can not run. I have a good pair of shoes for the Summer.

9th
Cleaning down stairs today. My friend Lyn is here later. Just finished the kitchen and bathroom floors and she was here. I have known Lyn since 1979 when we were both having our first babies. We have kept in touch ever since.
10th
Bit of a rest day but still did the iroming. Headache today but I think that's the cold wind on the common. It has bean bitter cold the last few days. I do wear a hat but my face gets cold at times and goes numb. Very tired today.
12th
My fried Debbie came round with lots of presents for my Birthday tomorrow.. She is very generous and buys me, I think too much. She says it's for what I do to help her when she needs someone. That's what friends do I said. I used to help her Mum as well. I have know Debbie since she was around sixteen and just left school.
My Brother and Sister in law also came round with some primulas for the garden. Plus another present as well.
13th
Happy Birthday to me. Lots of presents and cards for me, visits as well .
.
From Paul's parents.
From my friend Tracy.
Lindsay and Jamie-Lee, Jay-Jay, Molly and Corey-James. A good day, we had fish and chips for tea. Andrew curry and chips.. Just the three of us nice and quiet. I can not cope with a lot of noise, or too many people around. So it worked quite well. Another day when Wayne and Kayleigh comes from Halifax we are all going to get together.
A lovey Birthday and so many presents and cards. People were very generous. I am so tired now I hurt.
15th
I have finished off the Aran blankets I have bean knitting.
Paul cooked tea, the first time in ages. Steak, potatoes, peas, and sweetcorn. Very nice it was too.
16th
Today is a very hard sad day. The funeral of a young friend sixteen years old. The service was lovely so many people there, young and old. Relations, friends, and many young school buddies. Lots of tears flowed-- rest in peace mate "Forever young".
18th
A lovely sunny day but very cold wind good walk on the common. Bedroom cleaning today. On my own again as Paul out for his usual dinner. Worked hard and got them all done.
19th
My friend Ursula came round and gave me a beautiful red glass dish for a belated Birthday present. Very nice surprise as I did realise she knew it had bean my Birthday. I decided to give her the blanket I made as she was one of the two people to choose from. I think she will use it more than the other person. I can still make them one as well. I also gave her a big puzzle board, as I got another one from a charity shop a few weeks ago. She was very very happy with both.
20th
Cleaning up down stairs today hard going but I got it all done took until four thirty. Just about all in now but pleased it's all done. None to do for another day.
22nd
In the garden today and what a lovely day it is too. Wind cold but sheltered it's quite warm. Planted all my primulas they look very pretty and colourful.
After a few sunny days they will look better. The ground was very wet.
Tidied up and troweled over the soil to tidy it up and break up where the rain had caused puddles. I enjoy gardening a lot being outside in the sun and just making things look better. Spent quite a few hours outside and just about got it all done be for it got dark and cold. Looks good and tidy now.
Later I had a phone call to say a great friend had passed away. She has not had a good life lately. Very troubled, so sad but hopefully she is at peace now.
25th
Cleaning up down stairs today, cooked tea. Very tired seemed to have bean a busy week.
I bought a bed for the spare room it's a mid bed with plenty of storage underneath. I think the room will look a lot better and tider. Just need to put it back together when I get it hopefully Friday. Andy a friend is going to get it for me with my Daughter Lindsay.
26th
Took the bed and all the other stuff out the spare room, ready for the new bed. The old bed got damaged a while ago and Paul fixed it. Remember Wayne ??? There is a lot of charity things to go to the shop and some for recycling, also some to keep. Vacumed all round now its ready for the new bed.
27th
Bed here, Lindsay stopped and helped Paul with it and they soon had it all done, looks really good. Should have had one years ago. The amount of things you can hide and store under it.
28th
Getting the room back together, looks so nice and a lot tidier now. I will put up a picture at a later date.
Vacumed all up stairs to get rid of any bits, also down stairs. I am very tired now like I said it's bean a very busy week. Did not have to cook tea as Chinese tonight.
Bit of a mixed month but it can only get better I hope. I will miss my friend a lot and will think about her. Also my younger friend as well. I have bean very tired but just had my B12 so hopefully will feel better soon.
