Lunch, Jelly Babies and Ragtime

1   After singing this morning, a  long and lovely lunch by the sea with good friends. What could be better?!

2   Just sometimes I have to have Jelly babies! These are the last three as I was rewarding myself each time I cracked the following bar of music!

3   This music will look very easy to those of you are musicians. I’m on Grade 2 and getting that rhythm right has been really hard. Tonight I did it, over and over again – hence no Jelly Babies left!

Piano Lesson, Knitting and A Little Treasure

1   I hadn’t had a piano lesson for over six weeks for one reason or another and have been very bad about practising! My teacher, always encouraging, was so lovely and praised me for what I had remembered and pushed me on again.

2   I’ve finished knitting a cardigan for our 4th Grandchild due next April. If it turns out to be a boy, I shall have to find someone else to give this one to! The one I’ve now started is more neutral!

3   While looking through my boxes for a piece of fabric this afternoon, I came across this little present that I made for my Mum more than fifty years ago! She treasured it all those years and now it’s mine again.
