Feeling Good

We had a wonderful weekend when bear came home. It was wonderful to see him. He looked happy and healthy, though tired, and he was so relaxed with us. DH and I were thrilled. We had gathered together a care package, with some treats like hot sauce and biscuits, and he took what he could carry back with him and we posted the rest for him to collect on campus. He said that he really appreciated the goodies and the thought, and it was a boost as he was studying. 

Other good news is a quote about repairing our roof. There's a few slates missing, and we have been told it's £200, not the £1,200 that the man who knocked on the door quoted. I suspect that we'll have some more repairs in the near future as our roof is quite old, but we'll wait and see what happens. 

This blog is incredibly useful sometimes. I didn't have a sensible pic for today, so I thought that I would crack on with a project that I've been meaning to tackle. I only had a short amount of time, but I dug out the smaller lucet and the brown twine. If you remember, I had a basket where I'd added cord handles with the cord made by the lucet. The post is here.

So far, the cord that I hope to use as a replacement looks like this.

Knowing that I ought to do something for the blog spurred me on, and I hope to finish off at least one handle by tomorrow. 

Writing stuff - Apart from working on the White Hart, I can confirm that the paperback is now available for Cats in the Bible, if you are interested. There is also this week's instalment of the Guest on my writing blog here. 

Hugs and good health to all.
