Oh Heck!!!

Thank you all for such lovely comments on my last post.

Well I feel like I have woken up in a blast furnace this morning it's so bloomin' hot. There were plans to wash down the cupboards in the kitchen but blow that for game of soldiers.......I think it will be a day in the sewing room with the fan on.
I have spent a lot of time in there the past few days and I think I can now say I am a crafter again with hot glue burns to prove it....lol. I had best stick to Hi Tack glue until my hands are less clumsy.

Trying to avoid going out as much as I can unless the stir crazies get bad. Shopping in a mask isn't for me....I've tried it and I feel so sick by the time I've done that there is no pleasure in it at all. I did go out the other day and I am sure you will be disgusted to know that I bought a Christmas present!!! It was a bargain too good to be missed and something we had planned on getting for Ruby. 
I am not planning on doing any more for a while.

Oh heck.......how are you all getting on with the new Blogger? I went on this morning and I have reverted to the old version until I have the patience to work it out. I do wish they would leave things alone.

The Doodles have been away on holiday for the last week and I am looking forward to a bit of Facetime tonight or tomorrow to hear all about it as connection hasn't been good while they have been away.

Right I shall go and get something done.

Bye for now.

Hello!!!

Well...it's been a long time since I managed a post.
What with one thing and another I haven't really felt up to either sharing the health problems I've been having or the boredom that has been lockdown.
That is slowly changing now that I have found myself able to sew again....not my cross stitch which is still beyond me but I have been sewing masks, tea towels. shopping bags and Christmas gift bag sets for all the family. 
I am so chuffed I've been able to do it without sewing my fingers together or cutting them off.

What have you all been doing to keep busy during lockdown?
Have you discovered new crafts to try or gone back to old favorites?

I must say that I am thoroughly sick of cooking and am looking forward to being confident enough to go out for a meal.
....and talking of cooking I had better go and check out the casserole we are having today....it smells just about ready.

I'll speak to you soon.
