Another week has flown by. Or should that be Whizzed by? Again I have not much to show on my desk as crafting has taken a bit of a back seat and tv watching has taken over. I am hooked on Celebrity Masterchef, Homes Under the Hammer and Antique Roadshow. Not sure what the link it there.
My lovely friend Lorraine came over, all the way from Liverpool, to show me what she had made at the Eileen Hull workshop. Well, not so much what she made but the die that was used. She hadn't bought one but then she had entered a draw to win one and she had - first prize which included lots of other stuff too. She brought a die for making a little Gingerbread House which you can see I have the components cut ready for assembling and she left it so I could do more along with the suitcase die you can see at the back on a pop up card which she also left. Afraid this has been like this for a few days now and can't see any changes before weekend.
Health Update:
Well, the main reason for non-crafting is that on Thursday night I must have had my hot water bottle too hot and fallen asleep on it. Woke up next day to find I had some fabulous blisters on my back, the largest one ended up filling with blood and measured about 2" long. Needless to say I could not have my usual chiropractic treatment as a result and so this has been a bad week with pain and the blisters. Tried just putting a dry dressing on to protect it and some Savlon cream (a 'no no' apparently) but had to go to the triage nurse at our surgery yesterday. She put a dry dressing on and I am awaiting a call from the District Nurses who will dress it for me. Hope they don't shout at me. I know I was stupid but the pain was so intense and now I am suffering - no hot water bottle, blisters and pain! Hopefully should be back to normal soon. But not using a hot hot water bottle ever again.
