I'm returning to my handicrafts, mainly sewing, and have started another blog here called Picking Up the Threads, where I hope to record my progress. There's never enough time to read, especially other people's blogs, which are fascinating. I Iike to write poetry too, though the muse is not often upon me and there's been nothing since the Bluebell poem in my last post (written last November) apart from a few lines in my husband's birthday card.<br /><br />You are the same age as my daughter and I fear you may be right about retirement, but I'm pleased to hear you are at home with your boys.

After three years I still feel that tiredness at 2.30 pm waiting for the last hour to pass before the pupils leave.<br />My dad will be retiring soon, I dread to think how he'll fill his time. I wonder if my generation will be able to retire (I'm 34)...<br />What new hobbies are you indulging in?lucy joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04863146546863419637noreply@blogger.com
