Hump Day

Knitting @YesWay (3674) 17 Feb 21

Do you use the term “hump day” for Wednesday? The idea behind it is that after today, you’re over the hump of the working week and it’s all downhill until the weekend. I love the expression! Do you?

Valentine’s Day

Knitting @YesWay (3674) 13 Feb 21

It’s Saturday night here in the U.K., and its Valentine’s Day tomorrow. I’m curious to know who actually does anything special for Valentine’s Day, and if so, what? Or are people like me and don’t bother at all?

Trying to conceive?

Knitting @YesWay (3674) 3 Sep 18

Did you know how many old wives tales there are about what aids fertility? There are LOADS I was so surprised. My favourite is the idea that consuming honey and cinnamon helps. I love honey and cinnamon at the best of times so...

Sorry for the silence over the past week or so guys. I hoped I wouldn’t have to say this, but depression has sunk its claws into me again and I haven’t really wanted to do anything. I’m trying to climb out of it. Be back soon

Over the past ten years that I’ve lived in my house, I have had just two trick or treaters. It just isn’t done so much over here in the uk. I wondered - are you guaranteed trick or treaters where you live?
