Sleepy Sunday

We were up and about fairly early this Sunday morning. Usually we're quite chilled out and mooch around in the mornings but today we decided to take advantage of the sunshine and head out for a walk

I drove us from home to a local country park. I've not had much practice in the family car so thought it was a good opportunity. Went fairly well apart from getting in a muddle at some traffic lights and stalling it repeatedly. Whoops :-S

We don't normally do much for Valentine's day, maybe get a takeaway and watch a dvd together. I was very touched when Mr Soaring Sheep presented me with this beautiful rose on Friday, he's such a sweetie when he wants to be lol

I've been knitting away on my Hermione's Everyday socks and I think I'm about an inch off starting the heel. I'm planning on working on these this afternoon whilst watching the next Little Bobbin's podcast. The pooling is turning out very dramatic. I'd prefer if it was a bit more swirly but hopefully it will sort itself out with the heel

Pippin is very tired out from his walk and has barely moved since we came home. I think we'll have a lazy afternoon chilling out and maybe watch a family dvd together

Enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone :)

  3. LOL, Pippin laid out like that made me laugh. Having a canine is a great excuse to get walking except when it rains of course. Yay on driving! I get nervous when I'm going somewhere I've never been before and there's traffic. When I had to drive my husband to Palo Alto, my hands kept sweating.

    1. Yeah he's a brilliant excuse to get out and about, although we did walk quite a lot before having him. It's fun watching him racing around with the children.

      I'm not a fan of traffic either. Our family car is quite wide and I don't like the other cars coming closer to me lol

    1. It's rather different isn't it. Wonder if the second sock will match up or not :-o
