I've Got It Covered.......!!!

.......the dining table that is.
Pom Pom trim, embroidery threads, lace....you name it and it is on my dining table being sorted and stored as logically as space allows.
The charity shop bag is filling up nicely and my mind is being decluttered as well as the sewing stuff. 
There is hope that my mojo will return sometime soon. I love it.

Andy is also on a decluttering mission on the small piece of land at the back of the house. 
A part restored trailer has gone to a new home and other stuff is being shifted to make way for a greenhouse for DD. 
We are on the lookout for a secondhand one which you quite often see in the local paper.

With all of this busyness going on we will have a simple tea tonight of chicken and salad followed by a homemade Orange and White Chocolate Chip cookie.....which I am just about to make.

So all is well at Tea Towel Mansion today....well apart from the fact that it is absolutely freezing here today. It was white all over this morning and the fog hasn't shifted all day.
I've just lit the fire so we'll warm up soon.

Hope you are all having a good day.

  1. Frost here again this morning as well Sheila. It does make everything look so pretty though. Possibly better than snow which is lovely until it goes all black and slushy.

    Sounds like you are on a mission with the tidying and de-cluttering. I love a good sort out and as I'm typing I'm looking at 2 black bags for the tip and one black bag for the charity shop.

    OOhh a greenhouse. How exciting. Would love one of those but I'm a fairweather gardener and I know it would be wasted on me. Hope DD finds one soon. Looking forward to seeing what she grows. xx

    1. The fire is going now so I'll soon be able to put the heating on thank goodness.
      I am on a mega mission Suzanne with this decluttering and loving it.
      DD loves gardening...it's her job and now she has taken over from me at home. I'm hoping for tomatoes and peppers from the greenhouse so I hope we get one soon.

  3. The snow came here again last night so everything is covered with white again. I was hoping the roads will stay clear but no such luck.

    My plan, once things settle down, is to get some major decluttering done. It is time lol

    1. No snow here yet but I did see the most amazing thing last night....frost falling from the sky like tiny little shards of glass....it was beautiful.
      Good luck with your decluttering. I am rather enjoying mine.

  4. It's not been too bad here today, but I suspect that it's just a lull. Well done on the decluttering x
