Everything now grinds to a halt at the first signs of snow. <br />Mind you Craig ( Pete’s son ) went into school today in the primary school in Watchfield. All the schools in Faringdon were closed where he lives. His school can teach children from 49 different countries for any amount of months through the year. They all must have loved the snow.Pat S Witneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805104841993312589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-13685154631899531322019-02-01T20:52:20.237+00:002019-02-01T20:52:20.237+00:00Hi Brenda

Hello Sandra and ladies,<br />What a beautiful card Sandra, I love this shade of blue also love those swirls.xx<br /> Well my sister did have her operation this morning and by early afternoon she was in AICU she will be in there for at least a couple of days depending on how things go. I have spoken to her appointed nurse who said there were no causes for concern, they are giving her fluids as she was dehydrated Which I think is probably normal because she had been nil by mouth. Also some bleeding but I also think that is normal. Especially when you think of all the blood thinning drugs given before such an operation. Anyway I can only hope and pray she has the strength to get through the next few days. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and best wishes. <br />PAT I hope Pete is alright after his fall, what a shock that must’ve been for you.

The schools in our area put out notices that they would be closed today as soon as they saw the first snowflakes. Snowflakes. Like me, I expect most of you can remember trudging to school through the snow, rain and hail in our younger days yet these later generations seem to baulk at a couple of inches of light snow compared to the winters we had,<br />we must be from hardier stock. <br /><br />Thinking of you today Brenda, I hope all goes Ok for your sister's op. <br /><br />Extra fluffy hugs for Pete and you Pat, it's hard when someone falls over. <br /><br />Love 7 hugs<br />Cheryl xxx <br />cheryl brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890543787200668122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-86525081496584087542019-02-01T13:03:59.689+00:002019-02-01T13:03:59.689+00:00Hi Sandra and all in the cafe' today.
Gorgeous...Hi Sandra and all in the cafe' today.<br />Gorgeous card Sandra, love the swirly stamps and I who thought you punched the little ones out. Not sure about butterflies going up side down either hihihi<br />We have plenty of snow here where I live and so pretty with the white looking out the windows this morning. Really hope that Pete is all right? lucky you managed to get him up Pat. Take care both and hugs coming flying for you.<br />Brenda- hope your sister gets her op today and everything goes well. Take care, many hugs.<br />Val- so sorry to hear your sad news. You not having a good week are you. Sending you love and hugs. Never any good to look up things on Google sometimes, you make yourself more ill then you need too but good you now will get an x-ray sorted, perhaps you should ask for a scan too ?<br />We went out this morning for breakfast and to read the daily papers at Waitrose. It was ok for us as we have winter tyres on the car but it was pretty icy around our cul-de-sac until you get out on the main roads so if you need to do a rescue trip and pick Paul up Sandra do make sure you got some proper wheels, some blankets and a flask with something hot and warming . Do you go with a red cape too ? tihihihi<br />Going to put the heating on and have a mug of tea before doing anything else, having problem to start a card for cc and a x-mas card a week (2 weeks behind already,yelp!)<br />Take care all whatever you are doing and warm hugs a plenty to everyone.

Wow I’m me again on blogger.
...Hi Sandra and ladies<br />Wow I’m me again on blogger.<br />Another lovely card today Sandra. Love the colour.<br />We’ve had 12cm according to the weather forecast. Well that was in Brize which is just down the road from us. We’ve had thick snow falling all morning. <br />Pete somehow fell over in the sitting room last night. I’d told him it was snowing when I went into the kitchen to warm his hottie up before going to bed. He’d got out of his seat and looked out of the front window then decide to come through to see it out of the dining room patio doors. I heard a crash and went in to find him somehow wedged between the sofa and a pouffee. I managed to help him onto his knees and to then help him get up. He seems ok anyway. <br />Pete was unite surprised that I wasn’t going to drive up to see Doreen this afternoon in all that snow. No schools are open by us, but Craig went into his school at Watchfield. <br />Pat S Witneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805104841993312589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-12827672198045433122019-02-01T11:11:45.892+00:002019-02-01T11:11:45.892+00:00Good morning Sandra & ladies

Such a pretty butterfly card Sandra ...Hi everyone,<br /><br />Such a pretty butterfly card Sandra n my favourite colour and I must admit I don't mind butterflies facing down Karen. <br /><br />Thank you so much ladies for all your comments and sympathy for Harvey. I know he was only a little cat but he'd been part of my family for 13 years and I miss him.<br /><br />It's been one of those weeks that I'm glad is over. On Wednesday my friends daughter phoned to tell me that my lovely friend of 45 years had died suddenly. I was only speaking to her last week arranging to meet up next month when I'm in the UK. So sad.<br /><br />To top it all I went to the doctors yesterday as my sciatica is still so bar. Anyway there was a locum on who was horrified that I've not had a back x-ray and has arranged one for next week. He said he doesn't think it's sciatica. Me being me I looked back problems up on Google and have frightened the life out of myself.ha ha.<br /><br />Brenda so hope your sisters op goes ok today. Thinking of you. X<br /><br />Pat. Sending hugs to you and Pete's<br /><br />Keep safe everyone if your area is snowy or icy<br />Hugs to all.<br />Love Valx<br />Val Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14766670798729908920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-79428884904380567352019-02-01T08:49:07.490+00:002019-02-01T08:49:07.490+00:00A really beautiful card SANDRA That large butterfl...A really beautiful card SANDRA That large butterfly die is gorgeous and those swirl stamps look really lovely and it’s in my favourite colour But I do have a little niggle and it’s only tiny and probably it’s just me but I don’t like to see butterflies fluttering downwards (sorry)<br />I can see on the news that Wiltshire has been hit hard Take care I’m glad you haven’t had to rescue Paul on your scooter <br />We have snow and so I’m going to work from home OH can take me but I’d have to walk home lugging a heavy laptop etc and at my age if I fall I know I won’t “bounce”<br />Take care all Stay warm Thinking of you BRENDA I hope the op goes well xxx<br />karenlottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00314141032092834388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-34148936994775548902019-02-01T08:18:48.189+00:002019-02-01T08:18:48.189+00:00Morning ladies,

Everything looks so magical and bright...all it needs is a huge dumping of fairy dust on top and I would be a very, very happy bunny.<br /><br />A perfect day to spend in my craft room, I'm not swearing today Janet, I am playing haha. My mojo was not in place yesterday after all so I didn't get much done apart from filling some clear boxes with children's craft items for the first of my Fetes this year. My theme this year will be Santa's Secret Summer. I hit the sales in the Range, The Works & Wilko's just after the new year and have quite an extensive range of goodies to fill the boxes. <br /> <br /> It started snowing late yesterday afternoon when I had already shut the blinds and curtains so by the time my daughter rang to ask if I was OK about 7.30pm and 'did I have milk and bread?'(already in the freezer 'just in case'), we had roughly 2 -3 ins. It looks like we may have some more as the skies are white and there is a light scattering of smaller snowflakes though they might be blowing off the trees and shrubs.<br /><br />I would like it gone by 14th Feb as the Craft4Crafters show is at Westpoint Exeter from then til 16th Feb which is the day Doreen, Lynda and myself are going. Let's play wait and see.<br /><br />My basket of comfort blanket Hugs is full to the brim just help your self to one or two, maybe even more. <br /><br />Love 7 hugs<br />Cheryl xxx<br />cheryl brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890543787200668122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-18410237359581592172019-02-01T07:55:39.836+00:002019-02-01T07:55:39.836+00:00Morning Everyone
