What is a groundhogs day and is it the same in USA as Canada ? I often hear groundhog day mentioned and never had the bottle to ask what it is?
He won't come out this year because of covid

Our vaccine centres have had 1.7 million calls since Monday in BC for appointments. The booking is for seniors 90 yrs and over, and indigenous elders at the moment. This is making it difficult for the people that need the appointments as the phone lines can't handle the volume...what a shame so many of us can't read. 🤨

That's the problem here too. They say they will show up and something always comes up and they don't show.
Seems they only want to do new houses.... when you think of it, can you blame them?

When we were having a new window put it, it was cold and noisy indoors so we adjourned to my sewing room in the garage for a couple of hours. DH wanted to keep moving stuff or picking things up and saying "What's this?" or "What does this do?" I told him to leave everything alone or go back indoors!! So he sat quietly and read his book, very wise!!!xxxx
That will be the last time you take him in your woman cave! It only takes once.

Our last dog was just the right size, big enough that you didn't break her if you tripped over her, but small enough that you could pick her up in an emergency.
I wish I wasn't dogless, just not the right time at the moment. I watch the rescues to get my dog fix until then. xoxo

I don't make things for anyone else. I did give one shawl and one of my sets of knitting needles to my niece but she is a crocheter/beginner knitter so I knew she would be able to take care of it. The shawl that I made for my sister was acrylic, but pretty.
My family doesn't think much of hand made stuff so I don't make them much.

Sian makes some beautiful articles for me and uses exotic yarns.. she knows I appreciate and will take care of them. My kids don't have the want or time to wash delicates.

Thanks Nitz, I think we'd need to have a dehumidifier 'plumbed-in' to the bathroom, which would require a guy to fit it. Fortunately, my odd-job guy is a qualified electrician so that might help! For DH, it's not so much a question of the cost, more that he hates the disruption of having people in the house!! Weird, I know but that's him!!!
Do you mean a bathroom fan that vents to the outside? I was going to get one when I rewired the house but couldn't get a roofer to cut the hole in the metal roof and flash it. So I still open the window.

Good morning from an almost full light and 30F Seattle area. Supposed to be sunny and in the 50sF today. Once again nothing much planned, so will take it as it comes. Will get on with my knitting. I hope you all are having a good day/afternoon/evening. xxxooo
Sounds like a nice day Pam. Enjoy! xoxo

Good morning. I got a little behind, but all caught up again now. It's the second day back in school with everyone there. Things were so much easier in the classroom, not one single zoom call in sight.

Good morning all from and sunny and if you stay out of the wind warm Norfolk. Well we have started our slow climb out of lockdown in England. Schools are back, we can now meet one person to sit and socialise with, with SD of course but only in public places like parks or beaches etc. houses and private gardens are still out of bounds and people in care homes can now have one named visitor, in PPE and after a test, and can hold hands but no hugs yet. Now we wait and see what that does to numbers. DH is getting his second jab tomorrow then the long wait for mine. Venison meatballs for dinner today so they are all ready to go in the oven then back to the knitting, have a good and safe day. xx
