Brrrrrrr!

Oh, you don’t know how long I’ve waited to type that title :-)  It is 57 degrees here this morning – finally, it feels like Fall is really here.  Cool crisp mornings – reminds me of days like this. . .

Had a busy weekend so didn’t get on here much. Thursday and Friday night was spent next door at Cheryl’s, tasting wine ;-)  Saturday was quieter, I had to take Kristen to her friend’s birthday party but it wasn’t until 5.30pm! It meant I couldn’t have a drink before I went to pick her up, which was at 8pm, so I just had one glass of wine and watched tv with Jason when we got back.

My sister called just before the weekend to tell me Mam is in Hospital again :(  More stomach pains. It seems certain that she has gallstones which is causing pancreatitis too. Still waiting for an ultrascan though to confirm this, which means the hospital obviously won’t treat her for anything until they’ve diagnosed her with something! It’s always a waiting game. I’d appreciate your prayers for Mam.

 

I’ve Been Featured!

I was surprised to get an email yesterday from someone on Etsy saying they had featured my fingerless mittens at their shop. She sent me the link to her page . . .

You can click on the picture to go there, or CLICK HERE to visit my Etsy shop. See my red mittens in the center :-)  Today is perfect weather for wearing them, that’s for sure.

As the weather finally turns cooler here it totally puts me in the mood for Christmas shopping. I’ve decided to try and do a lot more of it on line this year, especially for Kristen’s gifts for her birthday and Christmas.  You might have to pay more for shipping but to be honest I think I’d spend less, because half the time I go to a store, can’t find what I want and end up buying something else I didn’t need!

Well, I better jump off here, go do my workout with Jillian! I totally missed the weekend but not going to beat myself up about that.  Hope you all have a great Monday.
