morning ladies 
  I spotted Venus this morning in our skies, a beautiful, bright sparkle.  If you look to the east, beside the moon  before the sun comes up, you will see it.  You can't miss it even with stars as it's brighter and bigger.
No embroidery for me yesterday as I was busy food hunting and helping our son with stuff.  He's had to close his doors on Saturday thanks to covid. 
Was a tough time to start a business but he's got a job interview already.  He still plans to go out on his own again but will work and earn a bit before trying again.  We're gutted for him but he's happy with the decision he's made and it's better now than going bankrupt.
Yesterday I bought some seeds for our native clematis and have them germinating in the fridge (it's what the back of the packet said to do).  I have had four attempts to grow this clematis (at $40 a pop,  ) over the years but never by seed.  Fingers crossed this does the trick!  At least if it doesn't work this time, it will only be the cost of t he seed.
Today I'm helping a friend dig out some roses 
and two will be coming home with me.  They can replace a couple I have thrown out for various reasons.  I also need to mow the lawn.  We could really use some of that rain they have along the East Coast.
Mica, that was a good idea to frog your knitting and try another pattern.  If two experienced knitters can't understand the pattern, then it's the pattern, not you.  Life's too short to be mucking around like that.
My embroidery stand is going to work well.  MrK is still pottering about with it and has some knobs he wants to make so I can adjust the frame.
Better get cracking, I need to organise my spade, gloves,  and loppers (realllllllllly miss my secateurs!, still can't find them) and my contribution to lunch.
Happy crafting
