Shopping in Frome

 

Inside Postscript  ... my favourite stationery shop in Frome

We made it to Frome, though slightly later than planned ... the car windows were iced up so they had to be scraped and cleared before we could head out. But we made it to my favourite stationery shop and I treated myself to a small box of watercolour paints, a pad of watercolour paper,  a small sketchbook, and a pack of origami paper. I'm not an artist by any stretch of the imagination but I have enjoyed my attempts in the past and want to have another go. The small sketchbook is to practice zentangles, and the origami paper is for me to try out some more origami, something I used to do a lot but which has fallen by the wayside in the past few years. Anyway, it was an expensive morning but I'm pleased with my goodies and I know I will enjoy getting all arty again.

We stopped for a hot chocolate on the way back to the car because I needed to rest. The crutches really help but I do find it tiring to use them. I'd rather that than fall down though, so I will persevere with them for now. Hopefully I'll hear from the hospital soon and will know whether an operation is likely or not, and can plan accordingly. 

The afternoon was spent back at home catching up with a few bits and bobs. It was a really pleasant and productive day.

Today will be a quiet day a home. I haven't made any plans to meet up with anyone so I can potter about to my hearts content, just doing whatever I fancy.
