WOYWW #664 - Hot Chocolate and Sympathy

Just wanted to apologise for not visiting any desks last week. I was struck down with a nasty sore throat/cold virus and have been feeling horrid ever since. 

Toast, hot chocolate and paracetamol has been the order of the day for over a week now, that's about all the action my desk has seen.

I did start my jigsaw but can't concentrate for long and the conservatory is a tad too cold to sit in for long anyways. (Did have it in the front room over the weekend but our son works in there in the week so it couldn't stay there)

Anyway sore throat is beginning to shout out for a hot drink so better go avail myself of the kitchen facilities. I'll try to visit this week, really hoping to feel better soon.

EDIT - Did another test and this one was surprisingly positive! I have Covid-19!

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

WOYWW #663 - 3 More Scrapbooks!

Had a lovely quiet birthday yesterday. Haven't done any scrapping YET but do have 3 more scrapbooks! And a lovely jigsaw and a handmade butterfly origami "card" and a beautiful butterfly light too.

Happy WOYWW Everyone

WOYWW #662 - Photos or Cards?

Nothing like the arrival of 140 scrapbooking photos to make you want to make cards!!

Sorted the photos into months, they always come mixed up, then made cards....

I googled Valentine's (24 years and I needed a kickstart for yet another Valentine's card!)

I saw this... 

and made this.... even dusted off my bow maker and some embossing folders. I was on a roll...

Then came my anniversary card... and one for a friend...

The a couple of birthday cards...

I did do one page however. My 8x8 yearly page for my family album as it turned out the photos of all three of us from back in April were the only ones for the year (save a really bad Christmas dinner one!

So that's me for the week. 

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

WOYWW #661 - Tree Down

Usually take the tree down on Candlemas - 2nd February, but as I need to do the weekly shop, WOYWW and have Connect Group this evening, I did it a day early.

Beautiful day, sunny and warm even with the door open! I chopped it all up in the conservatory ending up with a trug full of branches and needles and a trunk! Sorted.

Loved my Purple and Gold theme this year, I wonder what it will be next year. 

Anyway I boxed up all the decs, popped them in the loft and did all the necessary cleaning and vacuuming. Didn't do all the conservatory windows, will do that is bits, hard work.

Still no crafting but have sorted photos from August 2021 to January 2022 inclusive about 144 - all ready to up load to order prints. Photobox have 50% discount on till 8th Feb supposedly for Valentines gifts, hope it includes basic prints. Must get it sorted before then.

So that's me.

Happy WOYWW everyone.
