Good morning all!
Despite barely moving a muscle yesterday I slept right through so guess my body needs it.
I am going to find a few things I've jotted on backs of envelopes and file them properly so I can find them. The trouble with being marooned on the sofa is the debris around me just builds up....I do loads of research for something, jot it down, lose it. Things don't stay in my foggy brain very long.
I loaned DH my kindle so have hauled in my unread pile of books to work through. I always ask for books for birthday, Christmas. Used to get perfume, too sensitive to it now, sadly.
I am reading a fascinating book on women's costume history, specifically tie on pockets which women wore under their skirts, accessed by slits in the seams. The authors have trawled through court cases, laundry lists, trousseau bills etc to find that women had loads and loads, from the richest to the poorest, and they were jam packed with useful stuff. I often see the complaint that women's clothes don't have pockets, but the answer seems to be that women in 1600s to 1800s made their own, and their ridiculous (to us) skirts were very useful! Now they've lost their pockets but men's clothes are fine. How typical.
Oops that was too much detail for a quick update!
Have a nice day all.
