WOYWW 706

Another Wednesday has come around so quickly and that means another day for showing what is on our workdesks to all the WOYWW gang be it a lot or a little, and now, it is also another day closer to Christmas.  Today is the last day for posting Christmas Cards and as you can see I have been hastily making more.  I found I had not enough to send out and the commercial ones did not work for some people.

I really must apologise to you all for my blog post last week.  I should not have told you all about the trouble I was having with nasty emails but I had had another that morning and was really down.  I only try to give of my best especially when I am wearing my chair persons hat and to be so criticised for something that really was not anything to do with me hurt.  I am so sorry I blogged it all.  I was not in a good place but thanks for all the messages of support.  What a tonic you are.

Sadly I did not make it to the party as it so happened.  We had 3.5" of snow in our area and as I do not drive nowadays it meant I had to be taken and the car had to make a trip of 4 journeys which I felt was unfair for my other half.  I would have worried all the time about him travelling up and down the motorway (40-45 minutes each way), especially as it was snowing when we left.  So I called and dropped off all the things I had to take and came home.  The majority were lovely and said they fully understood why I could not stay.  I really regretted it but had peace of mind re my better half.

My desk showing some commercial cards, my marker pens bundled together with a band, my latest batch of four other cards and a couple of favourite books I had given to me on Saturday.  I love the stories about these cats and I will curl up over Christmas with them and read and read.

My small table which I use to stamp on is covered with a mass of things at the moment including my laptop which I used for getting this post out to you.

My dirty "binkie" (cloth for wiping my stamps on) a grubby baby wipe (also for cleaning stamps) some Oxides, other inkpads and those make up brushes I used for the cards above.  The plastic box has my used verse type stamps in and the black box is a hairdryer that does not blow hot, only cold.  I thought it might work on something in my craft room?  I needs a home finding.

So that is it for this week.  Hopefully I will have something good for you to see next time as I have one or two workshops saved for me to do when all the cards and gifts are out of the way.  See you next week hopefully.
