Meandering

I love living by the Thames.
River Thames
Not right by it of course. One is not a gabillionaire. But within 2 mins walk. The sunset yesterday was really lovely - eighties blues and yellows faded to blues and greys such as The Guggenheim is made of.

This morning I went to a really awful boot fair in Rotherhithe and on the way back meandered along a bit of the Thames Path I had not been on before. It was the bit after the Hilton on the south side as you make your way towards the City. There was a lovely pebbly beach along most of it.

There were juvenile seagulls poking around which blended into the pebbles beautifully. It was very peaceful but also made me feel sad - quite a few couples walking with prams. If I hadn't left Pooch and we'd carried on trying for a baby it would probably have been born by now. Left me feeling a bit like this guy.

Bleh.

I came home, had a nap, and got a jump on tomorrow's Making Monday aka YarnYard's blog thing. I can't really do 'making mondays' since I have to do 'working mondays' so I think it's ok to cheat. Teaser:

Can you tell what it is yet?

Sorry you are feeling sad. It's all pants :( BUT thanks for the reminder about Making Monday. Yours looks great, can't wait to see it tomorrow.

No idea, but I love that pansy fabric :)

(I have a bit of a thing for pansies. I think it's because they look like little faces.)

{{{{{hugs}}}}} I was on my own feeling ill for quite a while, and it sucks. I'm so sorry.
