HAPPY NEW YEAR - 2012

Dear Blogging Friends !!!!

Have taken time out this week to spend some family time together, haven't really been around the computer much.  It is taking a bit of time to sink in that next week I will not be joining in the household going back to work.  It will be strange .... I am not sure that I made myself very clear in my last post ... I actually took voluntary redundancy.

OK enough of that .... what I want is to thank each and every one of you who leaves me such wonderful inspiring comments to my posts.  I adore reading them and feel blessed to have new friendships in my life.   I look forward to 2012 and the surprises it brings .. for the first time in my working career I truly do not know what is in front of me ... and although a bit scarey its kind of exciting too !!


So from Tommy, Lucy and myself and I would like to wish you all

A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012
MAY YOU HAVE THE LOVE OF YOUR FAMILY
and FRIENDS to surround you !!!
HAPPY CRAFTY NEW YEAR !!!

I very much look forward to sharing the journey with you all !!!

Love and Friendship Always

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL !!!!

Happy Christmas Eve !!!

Just wanted to pop in and wish you all:

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS
and
HAPPY CRAFTY NEW YEAR !!!

I know I haven't been around much this last few weeks, and I apologise for that.  Alot has been going on in my life and a few decisions had to be made.  The upshot is as of yesterday for the first time in my life afer working for 30 years I am unemployed.  I had the chance to take redundancy and I did.  I was the only one who did LOL !! I feel very strange .. I have no idea what I will do ... and I find that quite exciting.  I do need to find a job and the only thing I know what to do is working as a legal secretary ... but I dont want to do that anymore !!!!

Anyhoo what I do want to do is wish all my dear blogging friends ...
Friends I have known for a while and my new ones ....
A VERY VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and YOUR FAMILY !!
May you share the joy and spirit of the season!!!
Wishing you all health, wealth and happiness
over the festive period and ALWAYS !!!

THANK YOU for sharing this crafty journey with me !!!

HOPING TO GET INTO THE CREATIVE SPIRIT VERY SOON !!!!

LOVE, HUGS and FRIENDSHIP ALWAYS !!

WHAT GOES ON IN THE LOCAL PARK ON A SUNDAY MORNING ... FOR CHARITY

Hi Everyone !!!!

Brrrrrr its freezing here in Paisley .... it has been snowing on and off heavily all day.  Here is a custom order for a neighbour .. she asked me to make a card that was to go to Canada .... I believe it is on its way.  She didn't ask me to take a photo of it on my toilet seat LOL !!!
 Some of the kids in Lucy's school and some teachers got together yesterday morning at 9.40am in our local park (Barshaw) to do a Santa run for the Accord Hospice to help raise funds.   Here is Lucy and her best friend Lisa in their santa outfits before the race.  They could not wear the trousers they were too big LOL !!!

 Here are the Santas at the start line
 Managed to get this snap of Lucy before she dashed passed me LOL !!!
 Lucy and Lisa could not manage round the 5k course so ... me being impulsive
asked Lucy to swap jackets and I did a round of the course to make up
for Lucy and Lisa not making the full race ...
here is where I ended up when the race was over LOL
SERIOUSLY I just got Tommy to take this piccie of me
 Here is Lucy and Lisa running down the hill of the park just
before they gave up and old me took over ....
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my wee blog !!! I really appreciate it and love reading any comments left !!!!!

LOTS OF SANTA HUGS !!!!
