Hello there

Wow, it's been SUCH a long time since I last posted!

I wish I could say I've picked up the crafting, got back into it etc etc... the truth is I've done a little but now the nights are dark early, it's pretty difficult once I've done the bedtime routine and the grown ups have had tea... I'm just ready to watch an episode of something interesting on TV (and there is so much good stuff that I enjoy on at the moment...) and then crawl into bed!

However, I have managed to get back into the gym a little, which has helped me feel a lot more like my old self, and we've been out and about doing heaps of toddler groups during the day which is great as Scarlett is really enjoying it now that she's just starting to toddle about with a walker... hooray for giving my back a break!  So at least the crafts are giving way to things that make me feel good and keep her happy!   She is at the moment obsessed with Ducks, and enjoying playing with her Duplo...very dextrous she is too for her age I think, but I'm probably biased.

I'm determined to get back into crafty things as I bought some rubber stamps from one of my local shops last week... they had some cards made up in the window and I just could not resist... I've struggled to get on with rubber stamps in the past but I'm determined this time.

Other than that, just trying to get sorted for Xmas... we are getting there but as usual, November seems far too early and before I know it we are almost at December and I'm nowhere near ready.

Right, I'm off to catch up on all your lovely blog posts!
Have a wonderful week, everyone!

Nice to see a post from you. I'm sure it's hard to find the time and energy for crafting. Don't push it.. it will come naturally over time.

Great to hear from you, a young child will always take up most of your time.

Glad to hear you are enjoying life with Scarlett...we knew you would pop back up in the blog at some point. Enjoy your Christmas with that little one! XOXO

So nice to hear from you. With a little one at home there is certainly not a lot of time left for stitching and blogging. But the time will come again ...
