Will It ever get done?

I still haven't started on my year book! I am not sure if I really want to do this now or not. I thought it sounded like a good idea before Christmas but now I am not sure. I sat down to start yet again yesterday and ended up making a tab book and a match book. At least I am getting something done.

I signed up to The Design Collective, they have some really great ideas and I am looking forward to starting there projects in a few weeks.

There is nothing much happening at the moment. It is cold and wet most of the time, and I am fed up wearing lots of layers. I just cannot wait for the summer.

Apple pie and ice cream!

OK so today isn't a good day! I am sitting here eating apple pie and ice cream!!!

I have been looking through a lot of blogs I have found on other peoples sites, and feel quite inadequate now. I will no doubt find out how to add things to this blog as I go along, but at the moment it just looks so bare to me.

I have also not done any crafting for a few days now, I just do not seem to have any motivation at present. I look at what others are doing and think "I couldn't do that" I will have to get out of this slump or I will get nothing done at all.

Oh well back to the pie.

What a week

Well where do I start!

Mum went back to England on Saturday, so we were up at 4am to get her to the airport on time for the flight. I then went back to bed for a few hours and Hal opened the shop for me, as we were going out that night. I went in to work at lunchtime and Hal came home to bed for a quick nap.

Sunday we just had a quiet day cleaning and getting things straight again as we hadn't had chance since I came out of hospital in January. The day ended we me falling flat on my face in the courtyard! luckily I didn't break anything, but my face is a bit of a mess.

On Tuesday I got a parcel from one of the new suppliers I met when I was at the show. The stock is a change from what I normally have so I hope it goes well.

All in all it has been a strange week, I think the fact that it started out hot and then has rained for the rest of the time has made everyone unsettled. That and the fact that I just don't seem to be able to settle down and start on my year scrapbook, we are in March already and I haven't even done January yet. I will just have to get down to it or I will not have any done by the time my birthday comes and that is the hole point of doing it.

Sunday

We had a great day on Sunday.

We went for a drive across the top coast of the island and I got my feet wet for the first time this year. We stopped for a coffee at a cafe just by the gate of a housing estate. Am I glad I don't live there, they were in the middle of a meeting. All we could hear was "you cant do this and you cant do that" just what we had left England to get away from, but it did give us all a good laugh.

The flowers are all just coming out at this time of year so the walks and road sides are so colourful.

Im back!!

I had a great time in England at the trade show.

Arrived on the Thursday and saw both boys, it was great to see them even if it was only for a few hours. Traveled up to Birmingham on the Friday and had a great time shopping.

The show started on Sunday but there were a lot of us there on the Saturday to start on the workshops. I was one of the lucky ones as I had managed to get a ticket for Tim Holtz. I think we all enjoyed getting our hands dirty with the inks and dyes, I know I did. I got my photo taken with him and will download that later, I also got my photo done with Sara Naumann from Hot of the press.

I have my Mum with me at the moment so I don't seem to be back into my routine yet.
