I have perfected my headless chicken impersonation!

This weekend I have made chocolate and hazelnut slice (so good!), cycled a long way, cheered up a new friend and dissected and drawn poppies.

This last is because I spent last weekend learning how to make silk flowers using French flower making tools. I have wanted to learn how to do this since about 1978, so I am very excited! If anyone has flower making tools that they would like to sell, let me know!

Meanwhile, my goal to declutter the house continues. Does anyone want three lovely vintage style bras, one gold with black lace, one pink with blue lace and one red lace: AU 14E, UK 36F, US 36E, EU 80G? Alas, you can't take bras in and they are far too lovely and newish to toss.

I have to tackle the books next. It may be easier to just move …

The laundry pile is now shorter than me. It's a start. Next, fic, long overdue essay thingy, invoicing so that people will pay me (might do that first) and dissecting a rannunculus. And catching up on fandom and birthdays and life. And make a big career decision. And …

I think I'll start with a shower and sleep!

The bras are yours! Which is a cunning plan to get your address as I started but never finished a hat for you last winter, which will now have to be finished after Darry's socks (which are next in line after flower dissection), but I feel it will all come together beautifully! Email me at blamebrampton@gmail.com and it will all be sorted!

And yes: I can only really get rid of books that I have been terribly disappointed in, or else review books, or sometimes non-fiction that I feel I no longer connect with (my Indian cookbooks were almost all given to a grateful Erskinvillain last year after I realised I only ever made anything out of the vegan one). There are many others I may never open again, but I like to see and touch, and know they are safe!
