Been AWOL

Well, yes, I have been very slack of late.... but not totally my fault. Spent a good two weeks in hospital with my youngest son. He got an abcess in his sinus near his eye, which grew with in hours to cause him to come very close to losing his eye. He had to have two surgeries, one to drain abcess, and another a week later to clear his sinus. Then he had allergic reaction to antibiotics and polyps in sinus which he is being tested for cystic fibrosis..... no history or other symptoms related to cystic fibrosis, so there is no real concern there, but still is a worry.
Then we get out of hospital and rest of family had started moving house..... which with school holidays and DH off work we were able to take a week to get out and into new house. It has taken us a few weeks to get the new place how we like it, but nearly there. David is constantly pottering and finding photos and pics to put up on walls which is great.

I now have a bigger sewing/crafting area LOVE it!!!! And just need to make more time to sit and do stuff. I have a few dolls floating around in my head which NEED to be created.... just have to make them, but have UFOs I need to finish and a few birthday pressies to finish for one of my groups, then will get into creating for me and a couple of upcoming shows.
