And how lovely to chat to somebody I haven't seen for ages, and have it feel like it was only weeks, not months/years since we last talked! Before we knew it, it was time to go our separate ways! But we had a lovely chat - talking about what happened in the past that resulted in us all not seeing each other, family fall-outs, and University options for his daughter.
I know that family fall-outs are bound to happen over time, but it was good to know that some of my family at least think the same as me, that older members of the family perhaps could have behaved differently in the past, and then maybe we'd all get along a lot better now if they had.
Families! Nothing better when you all get on - nothing worse when you fall out.
Friday afternoon I had a bit of a trial set up for my second craft fair yesterday......
..... with all the new stuff I've been making, and knowing I couldn't take my cards, I wanted to see how it all looked. I don't think it looked too bad.
Unfortunately the craft fair was pretty quiet on the day, so I didn't sell a lot. But I had quite a few lovely comments about what was on my stall, so I was quite pleased with the day overall. My mum came too, which was lovely. She hasn't really seen much of what I make, so it was nice for her to see it all set out.
And then today I went with DH to see his mum. At 86 she's doing ok - still in her own flat and still managing on her own, just.
And tomorrow sees the start of my last week before going on holiday with DD.
But not before I fit in another craft fair next Saturday .........
And I'm trying to book another one before Christmas ......
I don't think I'll have much free time over the next few weeks ....
