pensnestBy the way, I'm going to be tagging posts which mention The Situation with 'covid-19', so if you are trying to avoid an overload, that should help.

I'm trying to do a bit in the garden, after our home yoga sessions. So I'm doing small, manageable pieces. In my two sessions so far I have weeded, dug and added compost to three of the cold frames. I suppose the next project might be the odd-shaped potato patch. I'm not really a gardener, but I can do a bit of grunt work, and it adds to the exercise regimen. I don't think FIL can manage it any more, and if I want there to be fresh veg this summer—which I do—I'm going to have to put in some forkwork. In truth, I'm not sure how much of a contribution it will be to FIL's wellbeing and activities, as he is able to do less and less. And apparently does not have the sense to take off his jacket when he is too hot, but that's another matter.

Are you getting dressed, these days? I've been reading things by people who stay in their pyjamas all day, even for work meetings, or are not wearing anything but underwear on their bottom half, or whatever… I'm sticking to my usual routine of putting on fresh and reasonably respectable clothes—not even going with the elasticated waist yoga pants, at least not very often. Like the discipline of exercising at ten in the morning, it's good for me. I'm fortunate to have a Beast about the place, because without him it would be so very easy to lapse into a loafish state.

This site appears to be Good News About Covid-19 That You May Not Have Seen. So, yay?

I've been embroidering on a rather exciting piece of textured felt that I bought quite a while back. It's basically done, and I want to mount it against a rich dark orange sari which I have had for years (it used to be a window embellishment). But I can't find the sari.
So your question for today is, where did I put that sari material? Suggestions welcome!
