I am certainly not grumbling but these Wednesdays seem to come around quicker than I like them to - but not because of WOYWW and my blogging. I like the fact because then I get to see what lots of my friends have been up to by visiting Julia and following the links where we all show our desks, kind of "bare all" craft wise of course!
This is my desk as it stands at the moment
I am waiting for the page on the left to dry. It was my 'giant error page' from last week's "Jeudi Journal" challenge that I do with my friend, Wendy. I think I mentioned last week I had tried several layers because I could not get it right and now it has a layer of Perfect Paper by Decoart. Not a clue what is going to happen, I have had this tub of stuff for ages and never used it. It might end up scraping off for all I know. Has anyone out there used it? It takes 12 - 24 hours to dry apparently.
It is surrounded by all my packets of images that I have ready fussy cut and often coloured for my Jeudi Journal which will be out tomorrow. The drawer on the left is where I store them and the ones left in are the ones I know I will not be choosing images from. At the moment I have not a clue what I will use. The page you see on the right was last weeks. Hope this stuff dries ok and I can get this page finished for tomorrow.
In the absence of anything worth looking at on my desk here are a couple of cards I have received recently from lovely friends
Cath (wish I could show you that background for real, it is beautiful)
Nicki (from Switzerland and another fab background)
Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did when I opened the mail.
Oops, almost forgot, here's my patch on my comfort cardigan:
Blanket stitched around the edges and some cross stitch to hold it down where it meets cardigan - this is the wrong side that shows the thin and hole areas.
Health Update:
Will be glad when I can put my arm up and wash my hair with ease. Did manage sitting in the shower with a ton of polythene on the wound but not ideal. It is doing nicely though and the swelling is coming down and the bruising has all but gone.
Wish the Covid results were better for Bolton. We were being eased from the partial lockdown but an escalation of cases has sent us way up in the tables and now the Mayor of Gtr Manchester is asking the government NOT to ease the lockdown on us. We are now the second highest number of cases per 100,000 in the UK. Not good news!
