Crystal chips

 

Friend sent me some crystal chips for my latest craft project.  I'm going to make her one as a thank you.

Swings

I discovered this wonderful website this morning, mapping the 'wild' swings of Portugal. Just looking through the site has made me happy. Such kindness - both the builders of the swings, and whoever took the time to map them.

This one is close to home.

Trawling old posts

Our 'swap' group on FB was taken down, but has been resurrected under a new name. One of the members of the old group couldn't remember the details of her swap so I spent ages trawling through all her old posts copying names and details for her (as an admin I can see the old group. She can't).

Agaves

On a day out I stopped by the side of the road for an emergency 'comfort break' and discovered a pile of discarded agave plants dumped there. Being a happy scavenger, I managed to collect them all up :)

I passed on two piles immediately to people I saw, and I've two loads promised to other people. Any left over I'll plant, but at this rate there won't be many :)

 

Setting up #2

It must be the season for it, because today I had the opportunity to help another stranger with declaring their earning. It's not a difficult process at all once you're walked through it, but a steep learning curve.

Shopping

 

Husband walked to the shop to get me milk and made me hot chocolate with it because I'm under the weather today.  He forgot milk on the first trip and so made another one later.

Setting up

A few years ago, when I first went self employed, a friend gave me loads of advice on how to do it. Yesterday I was able to pass that favour on, and detailed the process for someone else. 

As a bonus, I was able to have a really nice messenger chat with someone new and I hope we'll stay in touch.
