My favourite spot

This is one of my favourite spots in the house. It's where I sit to read, sew and generally laze about. I definitely need some practice taking pictures, although I did take this at night which doesn't help. (notice the pram wheel in the background - I think I need to think more carefully about setting the shot up before I take it)

Today has been written off as a "getting anything done" day. I ended up on the phone for hours to my sister and a good friend who moved away a couple of years ago, therefore totally neglected any form of housework apart from a cursory swish of a sponge around the bathroom to make me feel better.

We've all been laid up with a horrible sickness bug over the weekend, so there's been plenty of bed covers being washed and little pale faces looking mournfully at me, and that was just Ian! We're over the worst now and life is back to normal. Jack is back at school so it's just me and Kitty at home "Mummy, why our house on pooter?" - she's a novice to blogging as well as you can tell., not that I ignore my 2 1/2 year old to read blogs you understand!

I've spent far too long poring over blogs this evening which I will pay for at 5.30am with my little wake up call. They are just so inspirational, one in particular I found tonight which I'm sure many of you have come across is treefalldesign, I am amazed by the talent of so many bloggers, it fires me with enthusiasm. I just have to work out a way to get the kids and the hubby out of the house for a couple of weeks!

Tomorrow I will try to take some decent photos, but for now I have to get on Amazon to order "Crafters Companion" - I keep reading about it, trouble is I might just have to order another one at the same time to get free delivery. Decisions, decisions..........
