We were fortunate that the flooding here was no worse. I get what you mean about the “holiday-freedom” stage. That’s us at the moment. We will look at being a bit more structured and join in with something in the New Year.

Mind over 8 years later and I’m not entirely sure I’ve yet found the complete answer as both retirement and I continue to evolve together.Caree Risoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16454194093120715901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2755176458538005666.post-35028684666694441372022-11-16T10:56:19.512+11:002022-11-16T10:56:19.512+11:00Your embroidery looks lovely.
