Another week, another WOYWW and my "C" Card tally is now at 24 so I am quite pleased and I spent a day making a card for a very good friend which could have been made much quicker had I not kept looking at several You Tube videos for different ideas.
Last week I failed to tell you that I had a message from a double jabbed, boosted friend to say she had Covid. Then, just shortly after, a phone call from another friend to say she, her husband and son had all been laid low for a week with covid. She sounded dreadful with a wracking cough but that was not the worse of her symptoms. She had hurt in all her bones, could not bare to touch her skin, had a headache, the cough, no smell or taste, and her chest felt as if she had been running a marathon. It hurt so much. She said she would not wish it on her worse enemy.
Now friend number one above, got it from her husband who caught it from work - apparently there have been a few at his work with it but the other friend and her family all went to a wedding on the Saturday as they started on the Tuesday. No masks! Makes one think how easy it is to get this dreaded disease and how bad it can be. Jayne sounded terrible on the phone but from what she told me she had obviously been much worse. Thankfully her son had had very little wrong so was able to help look after his parents plus she has a daughter who had it a while ago. Her husband is in bed at the moment as he went a lot worse than he was a few days ago.
Then another friend on FB said she had had it and it was dreadful. So it seems quite rife at the moment - PLEASE be careful.
Anyway, you came to see my desk so here it is:
My little Excalibur which I was using to cut out lots of circles. But what for? All will be revealed some time soon but not now, sorry. You can see all the dies I was using and all the bits of masking tape on top of my machine which is my trusty little cutter that sits in my room, unlike the other machines I have who all sit on a trolley elsewhere. I have too many!
Now I must get on with those Christmas Cards, they won't make themselves.
Toodle Pip - see you over at WOYWW.
