January Blues!

I have got the January Blues!!!!!!!!

I’m so fed up with the cold and the wet weather

I’m so fed up as I have just found out I have to work another five years until I can retire from work and become an OAP (five years until I can devote my time to all things crafty). This is a real bummer.

I’m fed up because my weight isn’t coming off as fast as I hoped.

I’m fed up of the dark evenings.

Roll on Spring Sunshine and longer daylight hours.

Just having a whinge.

Happy New Year

Firstly let me wish everyone a Happy New Year and hope 2012 is a great crafting year for you all.

I now have to apologise for my lack of postings over the last two months - I was in hospital for an operation in November and although I'm fully recovered now I got so far behind with all my Christmas tasks I didn't manage to make many of my Christmas cards let alone get round to posting on my blog.

As part of my recovery we had a week away on a cruise visiting the Christmas Markets in Gotenberg (Sweden), Copenhagen and Bremmerhaven (Germany). We had a great time even though the weather was very cold and very wet! The highlight of the cruise was a trip to the Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen where we bought some lovely decorations, drank some lovely hot Glogg and really enjoyed ourselves I'd love to go back when the weather is a lot warmer.
