Yarn Along

 The giant rainbow ripple blanket is rippling along beautifully, on to the second repeat of colours now and it is starting to become unwieldy for taking out with me now! When lying flat, it is about two metres long. Len likes feeding out yarn from my ball, Miri lies on my knee entranced by the bright colours. Fliss keeps wrapping herself up in it like a giant scarf. I love how much love the blanket is getting already!

I do all of my reading on my ipad these days, so no book picture. Snuff is the wonderful Terry Pratchett's latest. This is my first re-reading and I am reading it out loud to Chris in the evenings (Chris is dyslexic and can't read for pleasure) and enjoying it even more this way!

Joining in this week, Fliss at the National Wildflower Centre.

While I'm rocking the baby...

Other stuff happens. Despite their frustration that I have to spend all day, every day rocking Miri in the sling. I snatch moments to grab paper, paint, to help with the computer or provide more snacks. Constant rocking, I am standing and rocking now. When she goes to sleep, I rock or she wakes. 

 I am bone achingly tired. The bags on my eyes are almost jaw level. I fantasise about being able to just sit down. I feel that a day more will shove me right over into depression and I don't have the energy to do any of the things that could get me out.
