more - just chatting
Hello everyone
Sorry I didn't write anything last night - but to be honest I was just worn out by the end of the day.
Bob is improving slowly & thank you for your messages - but as he can't help out with Christmas preparations as he normally does, especially shopping - it all falls on me - & it takes me just that bit longer now & I get tired.
Today I finally managed to get around to making the Christmas card for my brother & family - but in my haste to get it in the post to them I forgot to photograph it. I used an 8x8 card with scalloped edge & used one of my Tonic dies that had the filigree frame & the tag centre, along with a die cut Merry Christmas. I dressed it up with some silver snowflake peel-offs. So continuing to stick with my white & silver theme.
With regard to my vaccination against shingles - even though the Doctor saw fit to ring me on the same day as my blood test to tell me I had no immunity - I still haven't had the vaccination. The practice nurse is not in again until Monday! So much for the visiting Doctor thinking it was urgent.
I forgot to tell you that when I visited Caroline on Wednesday she gave us a belated Wedding present. It is a beautiful canvas decorated with flowers from our wedding - I had spares which she asked me if she could have. I will try & remember to photograph it tomorrow & show it to you - it includes a photo of Bob & I that was taken before the wedding which we rather like.
Sitting here writing this blog & looking around my craft room - it is a mess! I haven't tidied up for a couple of weeks whilst trying to get all the cards made. Before I do anymore crafting - it has to be tidied. Oh dear - another job to add to the list.
I think we have most of the food stuff for Christmas organised - there will be the turkey to collect on Christmas Eve. I am lucky, as I am surrounded by 2 lovely girls who are helping by making things. Nadine is going to make her mince pie/tart that she has made for a few Christmas's now & Elayne is going to be making a Banoffee Pie. Ooh are we going to eat well Christmas Day!
I hope your preparations are going well & that you have such lovely helpers too.
More tomorrow.
Oops! - nearly forgot - over the weekend I am going to try & take time out to bring the club pages up to date with what you will be doing in the first few months of 2014. Watch this space.
