We really need a Keep Calm Craft On button thingy!
Well, as you can see I forgot about posting again yesterday. I just can’t seem to wrap my head around posting on Tuesdays. I did think about it on the weekend but by Tuesday it was gone again.
Belinda’s sweater is coming along nicely.
I’m loving my new book My History: A Memoir by Antonia Fraser. If you have any interest in history you have to read her biographies. They are so well written and researched. Even though they are packed full of information they feel like ‘real’ books. Mary Queen of Scots, Marie Antoinette, The Six Wives of Henry the VIII, The Lives of the Kings and Queens of England (that one is currently on our school shelf), and many more.

Can you see the large branch ‘flying’ through the air?
The “after” picture. Not so nice looking, but all the hollow pieces are down and now, hopefully, if the tree falls it will fall away from the house instead of through it. AND they saved the tire swing.
Ella scooped up a few pieces for her kitchen. Including a new tea table.
Ella’s made an addition to her house too. Now she has room for her fire pit to be inside and some storage.
They had to take down a big tree at Dad’s too. Wow, no wonder the raccoons have been hanging out in there.
Did NOT know about this! Colin says they are about 4 ft long. Luckily, no sign of the bees (Dad is anaphylactic to bees).

Is that honey bee comb?
No, those were bumble bees.
Love seeing the sweater and how lovely it is coming along. and enjoy the tree cutting..and Ella making her safe place..wow is she lucky to have a place to do that and help as well. SO much fun for you all. Blessings and Love Merr!
