Couldn't help myself but woke up to Monday singing the Mamas and Papas song, Monday Monday, and it has stuck, which is really quite nice for a bleak grey day outside, washing done and hanging on the maiden upstairs, Frugal Queen would be proud of me, chutney made as well, Spiced tomato with the last of our greenhouse toms and two peppers that needed using up, fruit bought for the christmas cake and puddings, sage and thyme drying in the kitchen. Feeling quite pleased with myself.
Saturday morning brought Quilters Group round again and saw me steadfastly drive to the community hall ready to partake in the fun that is quilting, to my dismay the hall was closed due to the excess rain last week and an upsurge of the sewerage system, not the place to be and in the process of being deep cleaned. But all was not lost as the group had secured the use of a smaller hall behind the community hall for their workshop and sew and chat group alongside. I am glad I wasn't in the workshop, supposed to be for beginners but those experienced quilters were getting quite a lot of flack from the tutor, I think she may have packed me up and sent me home with a report that I must try harder!!! Still whilst those in the workshop toiled hard, the rest of us cosied up with our work and beverages to sit and chat about the last two weeks events and lives, needless to say nobody seemed to get very much done, other than jaw exercises whilst I was there, and I came away feeling uplifted and included in my new group.
I have found three greens for my christmas sack, only another two to go, the pattern is all worked out, templates cut and backing material sorted. All in all not a bad weekends work topped off with dinner at my brother and sister in laws last night along with my son and nephew. If truth be told, life is as good as you make it and I want it to be really good.
So this is where I came in with Monday Monday, and will end with the same, although my sentiments stay with the first two lines, but being a child of the 60's I loved this song then and despite the sadness I still find it uplifting.
Thank you for reading and have a lovely day, wherever in the world you are. back again tomorrow.
Monday Monday (Mamas and Papas from The Big Chill)
Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.
Monday Monday, can't trust that day,
Monday Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way
Oh Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be
Oh Monday Monday, how you could leave and not take me.
Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin' all of the time
Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.
Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin' all of the time
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.
Monday Monday, can't trust that day,
Monday Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way
Oh Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be
Oh Monday Monday, how you could leave and not take me.
Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin' all of the time
Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.
Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin' all of the time
