I love this weather!

What a gorgeous few days we have had.I was feeling a bit "down" on Monday.No idea why.It was a grey day and that doesn't help but thankfully since then I have felt much better.I tend to be a person who dwells on the past and how I could have done things differently.So I have started a notebook where I write down all the good/positive things that happen each day.I am sure it will be very therapeutic.

I have been to my reading group today and I just love it!We have been meeting once a month ,8 of us,for 5 years but still manage to have a great discussion.Today we were talking about Amsterdam by Ian McEwan.I love I M's books.

I have also just finished and sent off my review for Newbooksmag.It was a history book about the Royal Stuarts.it was quite a daunting prospect,300 pages packed with facts,to read in a short space of time.It's a good job we had a trip to France.I did admit I hadn't read the whole book!!

I have been getting on with my Debbie Abrahams squares.I am still not convinced that it is going to gel together.The next batch will arrive in less than two weeks time and also my second lace Club from Violet Green.I still havn't done the first one.

I probably mentioned that my DIL has gone back to work part time after a seven year gap and guess what-Angus has got chicken pox.We can't go to help as C-minus spleen- is not allowed anywhere near it and it's too far for me to drive to Cambridge.It does seem that his friends' mothers want him to play with their children and get the chicken pox over before the summer holidays so that might solve the problem.

Sorry-I do seem to have gone on a bit tonight.Neither C nor I have anything i our diaries for tomorrow so we are going to have a day out.Watch this space.I'll take my camera.

Bye for now.
