Bad Blogger

The summer ( what little there was of it) has flown by all of the crafting plans I had have not come to plan. It started out well with plans to spend some lovely crafting time with Emily my seven year old. We decorated a treasure chest for one of her friends birthday

we filled it with some lovely pens pencils and stationary. I then forgot to photograph the card which matched the colours and design.

We then had plans for our loft conversion bought forward by three months so had to get moving on emptying the years of  junk that has been stored up there. This proved quite difficult with all the girls home from school, college and university. Things that held special memories were declared favourite toys, games (insert almost anything here) and so proved difficult to remove from the premises. We did finally manage to get it cleared and it is now empty waiting for the team to arrive with the scaffolding which should be within the next fortnight. This also coincided with a worse then normal spell with my back and several very busy weeks at work for David, so as you can imagine crafting took a back seat.

I also spent four days in Scotland  with Rebecca at the end of August looking at Aberdeen and Dundee universities, she has her heart set on attending university in Scotland but it seems an awfully long way from home.

We now have Emily back at school though she was sent home yesterday with a tummy bug, the call came just as I was about to get my stamps out. Rebecca back at college and Amy returning to university in two weeks time so hopefully I  can get some serious crafting in before my next OU course starts on October the first. happy crafting Anna
