Week 12 of #Project366 - A photo every day for a year!

What a difference a week makes. Life seems to have changed so quickly and everything is so uncertain with the Coronavirus. We are trying to find a new normal but so much is changing on a daily basis. My dad's business is just about shut down which is probably for the best as he is 70 odd years old and the more he keeps away from people the better. Stu is still working but we don't know how long for but I feel a little better knowing he will still get some money as of yesterday's news.

I have still kept up with taking a photo every day. They are not the most exciting or the best but I guess this is life for now.

Fried chicken, fries, onion rings and garlic bread. Not what we had planned for tea but it was so good.

75/366 - 15th March
We watched Trolls. It's one of those films my girls and I love.

76/366 - 16th March
Ellie got in from school was changed in record time and off out to play with friends.

Broken biscuits are the best type of biscuits. I saw them being sold in Iceland for about £3 for a big box and they are the best thing ever.

My cross stitch photo is becoming a regular thing. I've made so much progress this week. I would say it is almost half done.

Becky was washing the dishes and not to happy about it. Ellie dried and put them away and just got on with it. Eesh!

We went out for a bike ride yesterday. It seems like such a long time since the girls and I went out and we needed it. It really cleared the cobwebs.

  2. These round ups are going to be so monotonous over the next weeks/months aren't they, with nothing really going on.
    Nice to make the most of nice weather when we have it.

  3. It is a very difficult time, isn't it? I can't believe how life has changed so quickly and I hope it's all enough.
    That is a lot of biscuits for £3! Your cross stitch is looking very good. I have never seen Trolls and I don't think my kids have either!

  4. As you say, finding a new normal... It will take some time to get adjusted to our new reality.
    You and I are both taking photos of our TV screens, lol. You've made a good progress with your cross stitch. And that's a good bargain with the broken biscuits.

  6. It's been quite a week hasn't it and the new normal is going to take some adjusting too. Glad you were able to get out on the bikes. We love Trolls too and a box of broken biscuits is always good :-) #project366

  7. Your tea looks good!

    We love trolls here too! The cross stitch is coming on well.

    Think I need to take the girls on a bike ride but my bike and my eldest's bike are stored at my parents.

    1. Thank you! I am looking forward to getting the new Trolls film off the Sky planner instead of having to go to the cinema. That's one good thing about being on lockdown.

  8. The bike rides will get you out with less risk than walking.
    Hope you dad will manage to re-erect the business when all this is over.
    A lot of those so called broken biscuits are often whole.

    1. We are just staying in the back garden now. The kids are getting more than enough exercise out there.
      I think my dad's business will be fine. I hope so anyway!
      Ahh! Yes! A lot of the "broken" biscuits were whole and they were fancy one's that I don't usually buy. The kids thought it was such a treat x

  9. I saw broken biscuits for the first time the other day. I had no idea that you could get them they are so on my list now. The cross stitch looks really good, I use to do them all the time before I had the boys! I am actually thinking of restarting. Glad you managed to get out on the bikes. Mine are now desperate to leave the house but we are trying just to stay in the back garden.

  10. I hope you and your family stay safe. Awesome tea. I love Trolls! Broken biscuits? They don't look broken. Yeah, your cross-stitch work looks promising.

  11. The cross stitch work looks good. Makes sense to get the bikes out - we need to brush away the cobwebs.
