The Usual Stuff

♥ the usual gazing out of the attic window (I never tire of it) ♥



♥ the usual delicious morning coffee (mmmmmm) ♥



♥ the usual over excited back yard flower snipping (in mid November!) ♥



♥ the usual heart-skippy bathroom posy appreciation (yippeeee!) ♥



♥ the usual weekend hooky stuff (more tutorial making) ♥



♥ the usual creative Mummy play time (a silly-sweet moment) ♥



♥ the usual rush of happiness (caused by multiple blankets + sunlight) ♥



♥ the usual endless snack providing (two year old builders get v hungry) ♥



♥ the usual creativity for the Little People (Christmas stuff already?) ♥



♥ the usual stroll through the park (braving the cold) ♥



♥ the usual joy as I accompany a chattery Little B (we held hands and ran) ♥



♥ the usual walk home from the park along the canal (so peaceful) ♥



♥ the usual wonder at the beauty of still water + reflections (sigh) ♥



♥ the usual delight in cosying up in bed (almost there now, it's been a long day) ♥

Sharing some snap shots taken here and there across my weekend as I went about doing The Usual Stuff. Mothering, creating, relaxing, strolling, reading, slurping, prettifying, playing, snuggling, gazing.  It's all so ordinary, the stuff I do most days as I go about the business of being a mum/wife/creative wotnot.

My blog most probably contains dozens of weekend picture-posts like this one, full of nothing in particular, yet full of everything that is Me. It's who I am, and it's what I do. And I wouldn't change it for the world.

All of those "nothing special" moments add up to one very special life!

[pelusa]

[idiosyncratic eye]

You have a lot to appreciate and be grateful for, it really is the small things that make life so pleasurable. :)

Oh Lucy, I would be so wildly jealous of your life, if I didn't have such a similar, mommy/wifey/prettifying/hooky life of my own (which, by the way, I love mine, too!) You have been an inspiration since I stumbled across you on Pinterest and am currently creating a ripply blanket of my own! The colors are more peaceful and oceany, inspired by the bag you made for your friend. I receive complements all the time on the pattern and colors and they all belong to you. Well, mostly ;-) Thank you, my new hooky friend!

I like these moments of an .... usual and "normal" life!

I miss the simplicity of small children.. a walk to the park would make their day, just putting on wellies and going and jumping in the big puddles. Now they look at me with their teenage eyes and call me crazy, but I still want to jump in puddles and tromp through autumn leaves. PS Christmas Wreath.. if you put a little bit of polystyrene safe glue on the pin before you push it in, they will stick.

[Angy Braine]

Neither would I! Indeed I'd give an arm and a leg for one of your days in your stunning town with your amazing talents... thank you for sharing and don't ever feel that we fee that the "usual" isn't just AWESOME!!!! ♥♥♥

[Tracy]

The knitted birds are great, did you use a pattern.

[LoriAngela]

hi lucy!
it's been sooooo long since i have posted or since you have heard from me last. i want to just peek in and say hello... am LOVIN the hat (i have made quite a few but never for myself actually... hmmmm time to change that) and have to say i am very impressed with your new bay window. now this may sound strange but there is a reason for this... i see too many houses with a character that is often destroyed with renovations made because the owners do not pay attention to details. your window has some beautiful little details, perfect for your lil victorian place. i do peak in from time to time as i find a minute to check in on you. lots going on in my life, new and exciting and at times also a bit trying but hopefully by the holidays, we will be able to enjoy some peace and quiet and get somewhat, what one could call "normal"... LOL if you only knew!
hugs to you and wishes for a wonderful sunday to you and your lil family...

I have tried to subscribe to your blog for weeks, but I think the link is broken, when I click it, I just get this looooong page of html. I am worried I will miss your absolutely most cheerful and positive posts.

Your usual stuff is still inspiring, like everything you do. I have nominated you for an award:
