in order to rid the household of it quicker, i threw a wee piece into the lunchbox i packed for ag to take to kinder today.
not at all upset to send him off to kinder today, after he had last week off with a cold.
though it did feel a bit odd with my brain firmly in lockdown mode.
in the hour or so break i had while he was at kinder, and before ej woke from his nap, i got busy in our front yard.
this is what i call my 'stick fence'. i started it in march of last year, lockdown 1.0 using long straight sticks that we found on our daily walks.
it's definitely a long term project as we have a looooooong front fence (especially as our next door neighbour has mentioned if i feel like continuing along her property line too, she wouldn't be opposed... we'll see!) but it's nice to be able to make progress when i can!
speaking of progress, the last week i've been working on a relatively quick knit, a nappy cover!
i knitted a bunch of these in the smaller 2 sizes before ej was born, and used them constantly with terry towelling flats for months and months, and then just stopped. i don't even remember why to be honest, but when i tried to get back into the swing of cloth nappies, the covers were all too small for my growing bub and it's taken me this long to get around to knitting any more...
thankfully i know they don't take too long to knit, and once i get a couple off the needles, i'll be able to start getting some cloth onto ej's bum once again.
can't wait, as the cost of nappies at the checkout, and the full rubbish bin at the end of the fortnight are both really starting to get to me!
do you have any long term garden beautification projects too? what are your go-to lunchbox snacks?
what was the favourite part of your day today?

Love, love, love the fence idea! Thinking of you over there, you’re certainly going through the wringer.
