I visited mum and dad yesterday. My dad is now having palliative care at home - things are not good. I am hoping that my mum is going to be okay. It wasn't a good day at all yesterday for dad ut at least we were company for my mum. It was good to see her smile - she had been using her snowglobe dies and had made some wonderful christmas cards - its such a great thing - crafting. Where would we be without it???
Today I have coffeepot - as long as the men arrive to fit my granite work surfaces. I am taking along Kevins gang stamps from Indigo Blu and also distress pens and paperartsy infusions for us all to play with. These are my samples ...
this one uses the infusions ...
and this one the distress pens.....
I suspect the ladies will enjoy having fun!
Later on I am back to strength training - my back has been a bit out of sorts so I have only been swimming - but I hope to be back to it tomorrow!
Hope you have a great Monday!
Hugs
