I woke up late, for me anyway, but perhaps I was catching up from the night before. The weather looked lovely so, as soon as I'd put the washing out, I went walking. I was quite slow so it took me almost to lunchtime - scrambled eggs with mushrooms and peas mixed in. I don't seem to be using butter any more, so it's gone in the fridge.

Apart from clearing the leaves from the patio, the only job I've done is to finish sewing two inset pockets into a sundress. At last! They've been pinned for about two months, I'll be glad to have the sewing machine off the table!

I'm hoping I've worked out why my back's still hurting, possibly because I'm bending double at the waist to reach down, instead of squatting, which I can't do properly at the moment. Must make more effort.
