Sandra I'm not sur...Hello Sandra and everyone,<br /><br />Sandra I'm not surprised you were so delighted with this very special present. Janet your gift to Sandra is beautiful, the lace you have used is exquisite, what a very talented lady you are. <br /><br />Michele, you were really very good at the show, it looks as if you got some good bargains. And MIL's gift is great. I know you will have fun using these.<br /><br />Val, love your baby cards. They will be treasured I'm sure.<br /><br />Sandra Hope Mum enjoys her flowers.<br /><br />I'm struggling with my CC had two attempts they are both in the bin. Will give it one more try this afternoon - but not making any promises. Maybe my first attempts were to ambitious.<br /><br />Must sort out some lunch, we are both being quite lazy today. Had a worrying evening. Granddaughter passed out on the bus on way home from school. She was hot and trembling. Ended up in A&E had every possible test, they could not find anything wrong with her, and was allowed to go home at 1am this morning. <br />She did tell her Mum (just before being discharged) her friend was showing her a UTube video of a tonsillectomy - just before she passed out!! And guess what she is waiting to have her tonsils out. Doctor said it could have been a shock reaction. If it was she should have known better, as she can't watch any hospital programs on TV that might show blood. Strange thing is for GCSE now A levels she likes all the artists - which I can only describe as ' dark' ! Anyway she seems fine today just taking things slowly. <br /><br />Sending Love and Hugs to all, Brenda xxxBrenda https://www.blogger.com/profile/14121800821999942200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-90801627789663936792016-09-10T12:47:06.570+01:002016-09-10T12:47:06.570+01:00Those hot flushes are a pain aren't they?

Such a wonderful idea :-)<br />Michele, can't wait to see what you create with your new goodies. Glad you had a lovely day :-)<br />Weather awful here today, was hoping to get out and tidy up in the garden, but that's not going to happen! Been so windy lately and have all those annoying little seeds everywhere and was hoping to sweep them up, oh well! Although the forecast is better tomorrow we are hoping for a day trip to Brighton so looking forward to that and the tidying up will have to wait.<br />Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

All the lace is so exquisite, you are a marvel to make these things. <br />Val, the two baby cards are just soooo cute, love them ! Must be tricky to do the knitting :-)<br />Michele, bargains from the show and an early Christmas present. Have fun playing when you get a moment. <br />Home alone today so not sure yet what I'm doing. Did not sleep very well, the rain came so had to shut the window which made the room so warm and hot flushes do not help.<br />have a good day everyone, love and hugs Maria XoxxMariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05672255244916708700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-31233645398189137472016-09-10T09:42:57.189+01:002016-09-10T09:42:57.189+01:00Good Morning Sandra and ladies.
WOW Sandra no wond...Good Morning Sandra and ladies.<br />WOW Sandra no wonder you were over the moon at receiving such a beautiful gift from Janet. Such amazing detail Jane and all so intricate. One to be looked at and stroked and definitely not used.<br />Great purchases Michele and such bargains. What a lovely Christmas gift from your MIL. You'll enjoy using that I'm sure. Glad you had a good day.<br />The baby jumpers don't take long to do. I don't like sitting in the evening just watching the teleost I usually cut up, colouring or knitting. I cast on about 16 stitches depending on the wool. Knit a few lines for the bodice then cast on 8 each side and knit another few lines. I knit them on needles then transfer onto cocktail sticks. The wood seems to split if I knit with the sticks.<br />Had a lovely meal yesterday. Chicken Dhansak, my favourite. Then a lovely mango desert . Very refreshing.<br />Just cleaned the kitchen and about to iron. Will pop back later to see how everyone is doing today. <br />Sandra. Hope your mum is ok today. It's so sad when one partner's not here to celebrate milestone occasions. Allan and I would have been married 49 years next week. Always a bittersweet day. I'm sure your mum will love the flowers.<br />bye for now.<br />Valxxx<br /><br /><br />Val Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14766670798729908920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-80468713501860071792016-09-10T09:30:03.963+01:002016-09-10T09:30:03.963+01:00Hi Sandra & all in cafe,

What an original idea, they are so cute and I'm sure will be very popular.<br />Sunny but very windy with lots of "white horses" on the loch this morning.<br />Tollie is still not sure of the wind and is funny to watch.<br />I think a friend and I are cutting each other's hair either today or tomorrow but so fat not much else planned but a pile of ironing awaits ( it might wait for a while lol! ) .<br />Hope you all have a lovely weekend, love and hugs xoxoNanannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09016663930528165390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-43168170178150140032016-09-10T07:56:26.169+01:002016-09-10T07:56:26.169+01:00Morning Ladies

If I could knit, I'd use this idea for a "twin boys" card but sadly that's never going to happen so I'll be checking out Pinterest for card ideas.<br /><br />My Christmas gift -I was watching the demonstration & was quite taken with this idea. I know it's not new but I need to "see" things before I can get excited. I have all the goodies upstairs in my craft room so one day I'll get started. <br />On to my purchases-calendar tabs for when I make some calendars for the Hospice Christmas fair, the tag/twine/ribbon set was just too much of a bargain to leave and so was the MDF ornaments kit. The snowflakes Xmas tree die looked lovely in the card samples (its featured in the Brittania die brochure) so I gave into temptation. No signs of anyone selling cutting plates for my Platinum so I'll go online.<br /><br />Sandra-tomorrow would have been my Mum & Dads 51st Wedding Anniversary so Dads taking flowers to the crematorium in the morning. Sad times for our remaining parents(and us). <br /><br />Off to the shops in the village then out to meet my friend at 10am. <br /><br />Michele PharmacyMichelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04613583130557825327noreply@blogger.com
