Tiny Victories

I got to love on a Bernese mountain dog puppy at a clients house today. :heart:

I should really keep up on the Tony Victors, they make me smile :slight_smile:

I remembered to call my gramma for her birthday and we had a lovely chat about her morning zoom with people from home (she is “stuck” visiting my parents because Covid) and about my winter balcony gardening plans. I have sometimes found talking to my grandma very frustrating and that made me sad, but it has been a lot better lately.

Strawberry smoothie for afternoon tea! Delicious blend of frozen strawberries, maple syrup and soy milk. :yum:

I finished watching the latest season of Great British Sewing Bee and it was great.

This dress from the finals was swoon-worthy: https://twitter.com/sewingbee/status/1275894187209248770

A pixel 4a. It is nice and small, and about a billion times nicer than my creaky old phone. :grin:

All of my family members keep commenting on my AMAZING pictures with my 4a. It’s just portrait mode, but it makes a HUGE difference in pictures of grubby kids :slight_smile:

I looked for it!!! But I think it’s hard to see in the USA. :frowning: I couldn’t find it.

It’s not licensed outside the UK which is a bummer! But you can find it here:

Mostly successfully navigating work shenanigans.

Also I’m teaching Wizard to make tortillas. This is a benefit on many levels.

Ahhhhhhh. My 4 year old and 20 month old are just outside playing together. She’s following him around while she carries her bunny, and he’s “helping” her climb up dirt hills and making sure she doesn’t leave her bunny anywhere.

I’m trying to watch closely, but not interrupt. They’re so cute :heart_eyes:

…also I’ve been waiting for them to play together and let me drink coffee in peace for MONTHS.

Got a wood toddler table, two chairs, and a wood play kitchen from Buy Nothing.

Behind on forums because I went outside, without my phone, and did things.

We planted persimmon seeds in good spots, plotted some more about the greenhouse, then had a grand adventure taking down the trash, going to the post office, and getting more off-road diesel for the tractor.
