And that was June.. WOYWW 578

Hello everyone, 

"How are you all..??"

I'm not sure how July got here so fast but I do know I was a 

blogging failure last month as lockdown restrictions lifted 

It was vital I spent time with those that needed me. 

June 2020..

Local walks with my Daughter made up for numerous cancelled 

flight's as she prepared for her return to Sweden after being 

caught up in our UK lockdown for the past 3 months... 

After finishing her two weeks quarantine I'm pleased she's 

well educated on social distancing, hand washing etc etc.. 

but it will be a long time before we see each other again 😢

Freya finding a shady patch during those extremely hot days 

waiting desperately for her groom room appointment !!

now she's had her fur clipped she's much more relaxed.. Unlike my 

Mother in Law who's counting down the days to her hair appointment..

Now allowed to spend time with my Mom and have a cuppa together 

is amazing, it's been a very lonely road for those on their own.. 

I hope you've been able to spend some time with family or friends? 

Here's some makes I couldn't share any earlier.. 

made for my dear friend Dorthe's Birthday. 

I know she's now received them 😘 

Hope you had a lovely day Dorthe, enjoy your family time xx

and now after all that lets join Julia and the WOYWW gang over 

@ the Stamping Ground to share what's on my Wednesday workdesk..

Hmmm nothing but my scrap journal I use to stamp or just doodle.. 

but there's quite a bit finished to blog about later in the month.

Let's hope July is a little more kinder 😌

Look forward to seeing woyww 

and catching up with you all.. 

Take care everyone

A very late WoywW #555

Hello everyone.. 

Desk sharing day over @ the Stamping ground thanks to Julia, 

Well it's been a pretty poor start to the year for me as i've 

been suffering with severe migraine, pain in my left eye and 

what the Doctor seems to think is a virus, so under the Docs 

advice i've had to limit online time as blogger can be very 

mean on the eyes with it bright white glare. 

Woyww #554 showed lots of new dies, stamps and stencils purchased during 

the Christmas Sales just needing the time and energy to play with them.

So in real time it's a dark start to today's WoywW #555 but my desk is 

showing signs of life with journal prep under way. I'm really hoping 

my new prescription glasses will help me get some work done today.

especially if this little one decides to have a lazy day.. 

Thank you to everyone who sent messages and those that came 

over to visit my DT duties I just about managed to post. 

Look forward to seeing What's on your work desk 

this Wednesday and catching up with everyone..

Hello everyone, 

It's time to share our Wednesday work desks over 

at the stamping ground thanks to Julia our host. 

Early share from me today as extra care duties call. 

Both Mum's are down with a virus as well as Hubbies 

12 month check up. Can you believe it's a year since 

his heart attack, where has that last year gone?.. 

I'm so thankful he's on the mend.

So here's my work desk untouched and unloved. 

Hidden projects needing completion but free time 

along with my mojo are no where in sight.. Sigh..

This past week has flown, I've had a Birthday.. 😏 

Family get together's & been spoilt beyond belief.

Just look at what my dear friend Dorthe sent me. 

So kind and talented, I just had to show both to you. 

Thank you *Dorthe* I will treasure them always.

Lots of things happening this week but 

I hope to catch up with you all asap..

Take care everyone

What's on your workdesk? Wednesday.. 540

Hello everyone,

Time for a midweek share of what's on our work desks 

Thanks to Julia it's show & tell day over at the 

stamping ground as it's WoywW #540

More DIY this week as Hubby's been supervising Son's 

replacing rotten decking in between heavy downpours. 

Many of you know how I love to craft outdoors, this area is my 

biggest workdesk it's served me well over the past 17 years.

Making the most of blue skies yesterday.. 

I'm so excited that it's nearly finished 😊

Up to date with care duties so I've a day at home today Yayyyy..!

May even get an hour or two crafty time but first I must finish

framing some art work as i've taken over the kitchen table. 

I'm a magpie for collecting frames A3's are so hard to find.

Look forward to seeing what's on your work desk.

September on speed dial... WOYWW 539

Hello everyone

The past few weeks have been incredibly busy taking time out from 

everything to chip away at the iceberg of jobs needing attention. 

September just disappeared into a black hole of DIY. 

Home improvements can certainly elevate the stress levels 

and I have to admit I fell apart a couple of times not having 

the things that keep me motivated and sane around me..

So trying to resume normal service i'm back up and at em 

over at the stamping ground as Julia hosts WoywW 539. 

Here's Septembers Wednesday's.

WoywW #535 

sharing a stitch or two with my first cuppa of the day.

WoywW #536 

finished and framed for my dear Mother 

who turned 70 years young..

Tantrums and Tears for WoywW #537

This was the week I fell apart but thanks to a good friend, kind words 

and a 2 inch paint brush I managed to finish painting the fireplace.

WoywW #538 

Spent quality time with my wonderful Daughter 

as she returned home after being away for a month.

No pictures.. too busy catching up on Hugs..

and finally it brings me to WoywW #539

super fast cards stamped and coloured with alcohol markers.

Phew... I think i'm up to date now..

Like September's WoywW on speed dial see I was thinking 

about you all but the time just wasn't there to share or visit..

Looking forward to seeing 

what's on your workdesk this Wednesday. 

Creative Hugs
