The Man-Flu saga doth continue....

My poor dear husband continues to suffer with the dreaded man-flu and has had to remain at home again today to recuperate. This recuperation has mostly involved feeling an urgent need to talk to me every time I start up the sewing machine!


My old faithful is a bit of a thumper (the machine not Moogsdad - ha haaaaa!!!) and therefore I had to stop sewing every time he spoke. I smiled my sweetest smile each time he interrupted -like this:

I was able to get some sewing done despite putting up with a constant burble from Moogsdad whilst conversing with my sweetheart and made some of these mystery objects:



The postman delivered a very special parcel for the naughty Minx today. A lovely thank you present from Gina who borrowed one of Minx's drawings to make her beautiful picture on our crafty challenge.

Gina got her picture made up into some gorgeous Moo Cards and sent Minx six of them!!!! Aren't they fab?


Thank you so much Gina you have made two little girls very happy - that's me and the Minx, by the way :)


I have to do some Moo research now as all sorts of possibilities are springing into my mind!



I've an evening of handsewing to be getting on with and tomorrow may not see much crafting being done.


I have a - gulp - job interview on Thursday and tomorrow I have some preparation to do for it. I'm not desperate to be going back to work right now but this particular job is almost too good to be true and should fit in with the children's school hours and holidays - I'll keep you informed!


I have concerns over the impact going back out into the big wide world will have on my crafting (and blogging!!) but cannot ignore such a nice way of earning some much needed money and hey - so many of you seem to combine the two really effectively so maybe I can too - right?


We've just posted our next crafty challenge - please play too if you'd like to!!!
