whoa, that's definitely too hot for indoors! I'd be melting if I couldn't have all the windows wide and some fresh air blowing in! 😊

thanks :D :D I need to figure out the coding in his profile (I bought the coding), to get the clickable squares to be the right colours - so far I keep getting one part wrong :P And thanks :d Niamh insisted in keeping those CW bottoms, even though she wanted to wear a dress :P I love your HA's outfit today, that all works really well together :D

that's always a good thing for the case number to be low there :D And yeah, I think if they're going to be that close to people (and let's face it, there's no way they can do their job most of the time if they're having to stay 6 feet apart!), then they definitely should be wearing a mask - and wearing it properly! ;) And that reminds me, I really need to get on and make Dad a mask (and get the elastic put in Mum's one :P)

^ I got those two made last week, so I could post them with a birthday present for a friend in the UK. Although she's not planning on going out of the house any time soon, when she does, she relies on getting the bus so she'd have to wear a "face covering". Seeing as she can't sew (and I had some fat eighths lying around :P), I figured I'd make a couple in her favourite colour ;)

yeah. Where we used to live the numbers are 100 times higher!! Iike here its less then 500. And county 1 is at 5k +, country 2 is like 4.5k, county 3 is over 3k. Yeah I really don't get the attitude. Wouldn't you want to protect yourself? o.0

those look great :D THat's sweet of you

I cant keep the patio door fully open either because of Pusur. lol So yeah. lol Good thing the lil rascal is so cute. xD

That would certainly be very expensive. :nods: Lazy day for me today here. Need to stop by the grocery store for some things and vacuum. that is about it. xD

you guys definitely picked the best time to move then! I think our part of the country has pass cases than the rest of the country, but I'm hoping that everyone doesn't get complacent and think that makes it ok to not social distance and follow the rules!

:D I wasn't too sure how well she'd get on with regular elastic that's knotted (I doubt she'd be able to undo the knot and re-tie it), so the shaped mask has hair elastics, and the pleated mask has normal 'string' style elastic with a knot in it ;) I figured if the hair elastic was a little thick, that still gives her a mask she can use ;) I didn't want to wash it before posting it though, so I used my steamer on it instead - at least then I know it was clean without the smell of washing powder before it got posted ;)

that would definitely make it more challenging! I know the couple of houses around here where they have cats (their cats are allowed out during the day) and they have the door wide open on a really hot day - the cat just tends to wander out of the house and sit under the tree in the shade ;) Usually the owners haven't a clue that the cat has even wandered out at that point :P

I have to look after him if I let him out on the balcony, since he can jump over to my neighbours balcony if I dont. lol Silly design. :)

Having a good weekend so far? :) I plan on cleaning my bathroom today as I normally do on Saturdays. Other than that, plan on being lazy. :P

that does seem a really dumb design! o.O I guess when they made the layouts, they didn't account for anyone having any uncaged animal in the flats.

It's not been too bad - it's Mum's birthday today, so I got most of the sewing for that finished on Thursday. I didn't get a chance to make the cushion cover she wanted, but that's solely because the fabric that I bought, has a large mark on it that looks like it'll need washing before I can make it into anything. But Mum was pleased with what I gave her :d No chance of sewing tomorrow, but that might be a good time to get some of my sewing project supplies a little tidier - at the moment they're all in various bags dumped on the floor 😊 (I went on and bought the bits to make K's Christmas present, just to get the purchase amount up to the free delivery amount laughs but I don't want to start making that, until I've got the summery makes finished at least ;)). You deserve a lazy day after cleaning the bathroom ;) :D

maybe you can find an option like it but that wouldn't cost a couple of vital organs -crosses fingers-- Enjoy :D lazy is good. I wash my bedding the other day. That's a lot of work to make the bed with a cast on. I was pooped afterwards. Today I planted some flowers outside. That was similarly exhausting and I think i got burnt lol.

your HA is so cute and Sassy XD right? It was perfect timing here. I hope they don't either. But I see a lot of peeps here going around like nothing is happening so I fear another wave, or increasing numbers.

I think it's sweet you made a few options :D Ooh good idea. Sometimes that can be rather potent when opened after a long time with no air! And some people don't get on with some scents.

And another great HA today! :D :D Thanks :d Get the idea that Niamh loves those trousers?!

nods if it wasn't something to wear on the face, I wouldn't have worried too much, but I didn't want her to feel she was just breathing in washing powder fumes! ;) It arrived a lot faster than I'd expected (I was aiming on it arriving 3 days before her birthday, to allow for the package to be 'quarantined' before she wanted to open it) :) And speaking of packages, yours was posted on Friday - it went airmail, so in theory it should arrive on Friday.... as long as there's no delays! ;)

thank you. I got the dog in the cw pawnshop. I'm a little miffed that the hair isn't working in the wardobe and I can't go back to the old version :( which was working properly. So I had to buy a new wig for Kai and since I am broke it had to come from my csc. I was so close to being able to try to snag another wear too. Oh well.

hehe I did get that impression.

Yeah that's a good point. Oh wow considering how backed up mail has been I'm surprised. Ooh cool :D I'll be on the look out then <3 THank you in advance.

finally, the forums are working again! That was a good nab from the cw pawn :D I found one item from my wishlist in there (it'd been open for hours by the time I got online this morning, so if there was anything else any good, I would've missed it :P). Which hair wasn't working in the wardrobe?

nods her one was posted second class (so that's normally 2 - 3 days, but I've been allowing 5 days) and it arrived three days after it was posted. It's not wrapped inside the packaging (ran out of wrapping paper, and of course there's not been any shops open around here that sell wrapping paper!), but I did put everything in a new clean plastic bag just to help it stay together, and also to stay clean ;)

Haha. yes. I would like to keep my organs, especially the vital ones. xD Be nice to have.

That does sound tiring! How long until you get to take the cast off? :) Spent the day at my mums here, dinner and a walk. Helped her with a couple of smaller things. :)

Nope, they sure did not account for cats. lol A dog wouldnt jump over, too high. But cats are amazing at jumping over things and fearless like that. lol

Late happy birthday wish to your mum. :D Hope you got some yummy cake. :) Glad she liked what you made. :D: Sounds like you have been plenty productive and deserve a break yourself. :)

I've been eying that dog so I was glad to see it lol. I didn't find anything on my wishlist. What did you snap up? Every one of them. It doesn't let me see the "Free" ones and when i've tried to use the other ones it simply says there's an error. I don't know if its the white base colour or what but I'm so over this new version. Nor happy they took the old one away before getting this to work properly. :/

Pft spoil sport :P I should get it off on the 1st of July so not tooo much longer. I will have a soft cast for a week after it though. sounds nice :)

She didn't get any birthday cake, but then she hadn't decided on what type she wanted bought (normally she'd make a cake with Gran, but obviously this year that wasn't going to happen) ;)

Have you tried changing the base colour in the wardrobe then seeing if the free ones work? (or even changing the base to female - when there was that weird glitch with the base 8 tone, it was only on the female base, so I had to keep changing Niamh back over to male - she was not amused!) There do seem to be some strange quirks of the new wardrobe, almost like each time they tweak one part, it breaks something else....

I didn't find anything on my wishlist. What did you snap up?

i did try female and it didn't work. the free ones didn't load. His base is needed this shade so I haven't tried another colour.

yeah I hate this new version so much

I nabbed the ;)

Maybe it'll work now Keith sorted the lagging bits? (I know it's not likely, but you never know - stranger things have happened :P)

It's definitely a shame that the new wardrobe had to be brought in so quickly, before it'd really been fully tested :K

That makes sense with your Gran not being able to do it with her. I guess it might not be the same for her. :)

That sounds good. :D I spent the day at my dads.. saw their new home. :) They moved just recently. Still working on renovations- but its looking good. :)

nods I mean she could make it here, but we've never actually made a cake in the oven here since we got this oven last year, so she's also a bit apprehensive about getting the timings right and not burning it! ;)

It is tricky to know how things will bake in an oven you are not used to. ;) I guess only way is to try and keep and eye on the cake as you go. :) I dont bake cakes too often myself tho, so no expert. 😆

those are cute and look great on Nimah XD lol don't count on it :P I really don't understand that one but oh well.

ooh nice. LOL we've still got boxes too :D

Its like christmas if you dont know what its the boxes already. lol
