Friday Smiles 2025 # Week 6

Well we are right into February now, but I still seem to be on a bit of a 'time-out', with little desire or inclination to do much more than sit on the porch with a book, and do a bit of crochet while watching TV in the evenings.

However we had a couple of days of storms and even some significant rain on Monday, so I have been at  my computer some mornings. I have a thirty day free trial on another editing programme so I am trying to learn what it can do, but I don't think it is really for me. I have another couple of weeks to decide.

I have also done a bit of playing with my lazer cutting but nothing to show as yet. I had a bit of trouble with soot forming around the nozzle but I have given it a good clean now so hopefully it will work better next time.

Crochet wise I have almost finished my second blanket with the pink squares, so hopefully I can show that next week. I have no idea what I can do after that!

So I only have one photo today. After all the rain earlier in the week I was up early for clinic appointment on Wednesday, and I watched the sun rising between some pine trees. There were a few puddles still on the muddy carpark and I wanted to catch a reflection of the rising sun in one of them. But I couldn't get in quite the right position, nor wait for the sun to rise a little higher or I would have missed my appointment, so I took what I could, and I was quite pleased with this one. There is a clear reflection of the trees, and you can see the sun through them in the background.

Now I am going to take my book and sit out on the porch to read, where it is considerably warmer than it is in here.

But first I will prepare this to publish tomorrow and link up with Annie's Friday Smiles.
