So what will you be cramming into your long weekend apart from the usual school and club sport shopping, cleaning and getting organised for the following week?
I plan on gardening - I have some plants to put into the garden - hippeastrums and agapanthusand nasturtiums. Then I plan on spending a chunk of time at my sewing machine getting some serious progress made on two UFOS. One that needs to be in the post and in the US by Thanksgiving this year !! ( hint hint Dawn) - and is at the moment a pile of untrimmed blocks with no plan for setting - yet. I have a book I want to spend some time with and a crocheted cape I making for an upcoming weekend in Melbourne to finish.
People ask me all the time were I find time to do things - the answer is I fit them in here and there - I will get half an hour of crocheting done on the way to and from rugby this weekend ( home game so not much time - but last weekend it was an hour and 20 minutes worth). My books are always in the car and I read them even if only for a few minutes while I want for kids at the train station or at lunch - even if I am early for an appointment.
My sewing is always sitting next to the machine with the bobbins wound - needle threaded and fabric in a pile ready to go. The gardening stuff is all in a bucket that I can grab when I have two minutes and just start - gloves, seeds, plants, trowel, bag for weeds etc.
I started doing things that way when the kids were little because I was so short on an time let alone time to do things I loved and it has carried through.
Enjoy your weekend -
Chat soon
