I don't know about you, but I really love a list, it really helps me to make sense of all the many little things that race around my head, things to do, things to finish, things to start, things to buy. So I thought today I would write my list on my blog, as that way, I can't lose it!
So here it goes......
Hotel job:
- Make 20 linen laundry bags
- Make 10 newspaper bags
- Make 10 cutlery wraps
- Make 3 stockings
- Make Charlotte's curtains
- Finish painting and upholstering new sewing chair
- Finish taking and uploading photo's for website
- Finish product descriptions for website
- Make bags from Cath Kidston fabric and oilcloth diaries for website
- Write christmas card list
- Write christmas present list
- Washing Up
- Laundry
- Tidy up
- Dinner
- Make giveaway prize!! AAhhh forgot again (sorry)
- Remember to keep scissors away from Ella!
- Keep an eye on Ella (who has horrible cough and cold, and has given it to me now!)
I'm sure I will think of something else to add to the list as the day goes on, so keep you posted.
I also thought I'd list some things that aren't so pressing, but are making me smile.
Woolly hats on innocent smoothies, all part of The Big Knit to raise money for age concern. Cute, tasty, healthy, and all in aid of charity, what a great excuse to buy them! I bought one yesterday, you can use the hats as egg cosies.
My new stained glass flower, bought for £5 at a antiques shop in Coggeshall.
A new blue jug
My new stash of mother of pearl buttons and buckles that I got on ebay from america.
Hi Jess
ReplyDeleteThanks for the message. All went really well thankfully. We're onto the best bit now of deciding how to make this new place look. I really need to make some lists too - they're just too big and scary to think about writing down though! I love your new header, really pretty. I should take out shares in Innocent, Barney drinks about three of their pouches a day, I'll have to treat him a woolly hat one. What a pretty stained glass panel and in your favourite colour - what a bargain!
Take care, Stephx
Hi Jess,
ReplyDeleteElla's new hair looks great, they did a good job. We are so alike, I have a thick business diary which has a long list on nearly every page, good though as I don't have to worry about what needs doing as it is constantly open so I just remember to look at it every day (it feels good though when you can tick things off). I will be writing my personal list for the things to do in the run up to Christmas and this will include the places I want to take Ella. Every mum I know has lists, its just sticking to them that's the hard part :)

WOW--that is a big list! Making lists is good though--keep the focus, and that great feeling when you can scratch off each item when done--hooray. This time of year we all feel a little overwhelemed I think...nice to be in the same boat :o) Enjoyed looking all the pretties and things. Happy weekend to you all ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteI think you need to go & lie down until the urge to do all of things has passed! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a list Jess!
ReplyDeleteI'm always making lists and I enjoy the satisfaction of ticking off the jobs as I complete them. This one will keep you going for quite a while.

What a lovely selection of goodies you have. I used to have a Noddy Egg Cup when I was little that looked just like that one. Love the jug and the buttons too.
ReplyDeleteOoh I love the little egg-cup hats so cute!!! I'm going to catch up on all your posts now!xxx
