Weird Times

Pyjamas seem to have been the “reaccuring “theme this week. At the start of the week I was sewing my Dad’s name of his pyjamas as he’s in hospital at the moment snd we hope that he might get to a nursing home and well that means naming things like your pyjamas.
These days I’m up early, can’t sleep much, so I sit quietly in my kitchen listening to the birds waking and sipping a mug of warm lemon juice with ginger and honey. Well on Monday morning I looked out and saw a man in his pyjamas. I looked again, yes there was definitely someone trying to get into our outhouse with his pyjamas, dressing gown & slippers. During the night my husband and I nearly always have a time that we both waken & discuss weird things. We had mentioned our neighbours along the road and that I must call & check on the couple as sadly one of them has issues remembering things. Poor man there he was at my back door. Good news was we got him back home before anything weird happened. His poor wife had been out in the washroom and she hadn’t noticed his escape.
Reminds me my Dad has been planning his great escape from hospital, but with a broken hip & being unable to walk, sadly he’s dreaming. But the power of positive thinking, can be what keeps us all going.
Back to the pyjamas, yesterday I was using my husband’s pyjamas to copy the pattern so that I could have a go at making some scrubs for the Ulster Hospital as my way of thanking them for all they have done for me and mine over the years.
You never know when you might need those sewing skills!
So join me to learn something new, learn to sew with Jo
