Patra's Other Place

I started out with Patra's Place, primarily dedicated to my linen collection and stitching projects. But I kept getting side-tracked, so I decided to create Patra's Other Place for anything not related to embroidery topics. So you now have a choice. If you are interested in me, read this. If you only want to see my linen and stitching, visit Patra's (original) Place! (Please note that by clicking on any of the photos, they will be enlarged to fill your computer screen.)

I was married to Ken for 43 years, but he died in October 2022. So I am now alone with two cats, eight hens, and a few finches and parrots in one aviary.

"Ten Simple Pleasures".

Ms Robyn has one of the most interesting, amusing and thought provoking blogs around, and she often issues challenges of one kind or another to her readers. This time she named ten blogger friends to run with this theme, so here I go:
1. Picking up my cat and having her purr blissfully into my ear.
2. Starting a new stitching project.
3. Finishing a stitching project!
4. Eating chocolate.
5. Drinking cappuccino at a cafe with a friend.
6. Lying in a nice hot bath, surrounded by bubbles, glass of wine, and a good book.
7. Hearing hubby getting excited over a bike race on tv. (at this moment!)
8. Seeing new plants take off in spring time (after wondering all winter if they are going to survive!)
9. Listening to my elderly home care clients reminisce about the past.
10.Lying in bed beside hubby, listening to him breathing. (Five years ago I lay awake every night worrying if he would live through the night).
