Rocking Your World Friday - 14th of 2020

Afternoon lovely people tis Friday time to find some silver linings and positive moments from the last 7 days 

Well we've enjoyed our daily walk in line with guidelines, we are very lucky to live with countryside around us if I'm honest and we definitely don't take it for granted.  We've had one walk which was a little on the cold and bracing side but the rest have been beautiful spring walks. 

We even managed a rather bright selfie

One evening we were late going out, it was actually quieter, strangely I don't think I've ever seen as many walkers, dog walkers, runners, joggers and cyclists as we have seen recently. 

This particularly evening which was quieter we had the most beautiful evening sky which I did manage to capture. 

Me and hubby have managed to work at home, he now understands when I explain to him you work full tilt when you work from home because you don't have colleague or phone call distractions, so the work becomes much more intense.  We are thoroughly shattered today after a mighty busy and somewhat stressful work week. 

I managed a single day in the office as we are classed as key workers as I work for a charity and there is a need to still be there for our client base and the local community. 

On the one day I was in work a neighbour messaged to say she had left a gift on the doorstep, which when I got home was this. 

I've never bought cut daffodils before always preferring to see them in the garden but they have made such an amazing display that I may well buy them again.

The little homemade paperbag had several chocolates in.

I thought it was a really lovely thought, in fact we've all been trying to do our bit this week. 

We were running out of handwash and one of the neighbours dropped me a spare she had off and one picked up some skimmed milk as we couldn't find any locally. 

My flowers from Mother's day are still going strong as well which is lovely they've definitely brightened up the window. 

I realised last weekend that I was most definitely over eating, I think I tend to eat when I'm stressed but after a week of lock down with a potential for this to continue for 12 weeks I thought enough was enough (plus if my Mum is managing to stick to Weight Watchers then I definitely can). 

So we've embraced a healthier eating regime and spent the evenings making mini books which have occupied me thoroughly. 

These are this weeks offerings that I've managed to make, I started with the peachy one (which is a favourite), then the purple one then the one top right before running out of covers that hubby had cut me. 

But I did have some others that were cut that were smaller, so he shrunk my template bless him so I could make the two Christmas ones. 

Inside the front cover you can see the tags on the left and the pocket page on the right. 

Each of them follows the same design, I've got three more sets of covers which I'm going to use up before turning my attention to a new project and that my lovely people is that, I hope you've managed some positive moments and silver linings this week, it is hard to keep things ticking along when normal life is anything but normal but I find minimising the news to a single daily update, making full use of my leisure time, watching films and reading books we love and generally just keeping a positive frame of mind, definitely helps. 

Have a good week, stay safe
