WOYWW 807

Another week has gone by but not been enjoyable for me.  Don't want to whinge but it is getting me down now as it is never ending.  Up four times in the night and then I sleep all morning.  There is a stomach bug going around apparently and I have got it on top of everything else so feeling a bit angry with everything.

Good thing is last Friday my order from Lavinia arrived but I didn't open it until Monday - here is what I bought - topping up my bits I want.  Well, you have to do something to cheer you up and spending on crafting always works for me.

The houses are a smaller version of the ones I coloured a few weeks ago, wanted some to use to mix in and make things that bit different, will be good for perspective too.  Didn't think I needed the tree until I saw it being used, now wish I had bought the larger one too.  Crows were on my wish list from ages ago, would have been good for halloween, fairies, well I just liked them in the end.  Blue wink of stella pen - Jo used it on a card I liked so I got one - and ink pad is one I needed for something, what it was I cannot remember.

That's it for now, will probably be up in the night and maybe wander into the craft room and upload and see if Sarah is on to link up.  See you all next week.

Oh bless you- I hope you feel a bit better today. There are so many bugs about. Snow and ice here today again so I think we will be cancelling our planned lunch out. A happy day crafting will suit me and I am in the middle of a good book.😀x x Jo 🌈

Oh waking in the night SUCKS. Poppy loves a pet and a cuddle, but not too many or she snaps. Tricky when you are half asleep. Why won't she spend her time catching that darn mouse? LOL! Your Lavinia projects are always so adorable, and I am not really a fairy person. Hope you had middle of the night crafting fun at least.
It's WOYWW day!

On Neet, it must seem endless, you poor thing. As your immune system is probably low atm, all the other bugs decide to join the party too, I’m so sorry that you’re having such a rubbish time. The new stash was worth the outlay I think, there’s lots of really useful images there which I’m sure you’ll use all the time. The little houses are lovely!
Sending you gentle hugs, I really hope you turn the corner this week,

Sending hugs at this rotten time for you. Just what you need, a stomach bug on top of everything else. Can't fault the idea of buying stash to make yourself feel better :) That's a lovely collection of stamp images. P xx

I’m so sorry you’re ill and I hope your new craft stash will help distract you. Once Bella feels warm enough to step away from the radiator, I’ll check her chin for you. She really loves that.
Take care and happy WOYWW

I understand feeling angry when you are feeling poorly all the time, it makes you want to stamp your feet and say”it’s not fair!” Hope your recovery is swift and you enjoy your new stamps. Angela #10

Praying dear Neet for God's healing ASAP. Love those Lavinia goodies. I did smile at the reason as to why you bought that stamp pad I do that too. I've a tummy bug too but it's being overly friendly and hanging around for weeks.
Am losing weight one benefit. As my mum used to say every cloud has a silver lining.
Prayer hugs and God's blessing. Will mail your card today God willing.

Oh my a tad behind this week, what’s new! Been contending with a bad back this week, horrendous in the mornings tapering off during the day then the textile retreat starting at 4pm each day has taken over… Anyway better late than never…
Sorry you feel so poorly and hope it gets better soon, hope the retail therapy helps. I've been trying not to worry about my sleep and it seems to be helping but possibly now I'm sleeping through it might be irritating my back! Just can't win can we.
