I seem to have spent much of my time tryng to play catch up with DT commitments. I hate letting people down and have had to request time off from some of my teams as I am just not scrapping well. I get easily tired and my mojo seems to have vanished. It is OK doing things for me that are 'half hearted' but not for other people.
We have had an interesting few days - some good some not so much. Let's just focus on the good.
We had a special day yesterday as it was the boyz Gotcha Day ... two years since we made that fraught drive up to Telford to collect our new family we had never met. And in two years they have brought us so much love and joy.
We bought them a new Christmas house which they fought over so we had to get the old one back out so they had one each. They had fun!
And look at those teeth - I don't think with Koda in charge the new house will last long.
Also yesterday - after yet another hospital visit - we had a wonderful time with my godson, his wife and their mom (one of my oldest and dearest friends) I cannot believe the little baby I helped deliver all those years ago is now 35! How is that possible! It was wonderful to see them and they brought a beautiful hamper with them. A very happy afternoon and just what we needed
Today I had my best friend over for coffee and chat and that was lovely. Without her and Nigel I would not have gotten through the last month.
I have caught up on my Christmas journal but I have to say it is NOT my best work by a long way. However, even though I didn't feel like scrapping it was worrying me that it wasn't done so it feels better now.
Day 21 - the photo is our new grand-nephew with the blanket I made for him (I blocked his face out - not mine to share)
Day 22 - Our godson and wife with Nigel and Gotcha Day
A visit to Wimborne Minster this afternoon for Day 23
Today I am thankful for
- the kindness and love of so many people who mean so much to me
- being ready for Christmas - we plan on really trying to enjoy it
