Boo!

Yes, I'm still here! 

Is it really over a week since I last updated this blog? I've no idea where the time's gone. Well. I do. It's been taken up with so many things! 

I've been busy making up extra things for the Craft Fairs I've got lined up in the run up to Christmas. That, and running, and everyday jobs have just about taken up all my time outside of work. From getting home to going to bed at night I seem to be busy doing something. 

I've finished some extra Christmas countdown plaques.......

.......along with the hanging bauble reindeer to go with the snowmen ......

 

I took these to the Craft fair last weekend and had quite a few comments about them! 

I've also finished off some more cute penguins ......

 

....and decorated some little Christmas trees ......

I'm currently working on some more countdown plaques, both Christmas ones and Wedding countdowns. 

The running is going well. But last weekend we managed to go out for a walk. After over a month of not going walking! We were all set up to go in the van when disaster - it wouldn't start! Our own fault really as we hadn't used it for a few weeks. So, we ended up going in the car. And what a lovely walk. Very cold, but lovely ....

 

 

 

 

 

A lovely couple of hours before heading home to sort the van out. Turns out it needed a new battery. Fingers crossed we're ok now. 

DD has finally been to see a physiotherapist for the pain she's been having in her knee for the last few weeks, and been told she's not to run for about two weeks. This couldn't have come at a worse time for her as it's the half marathon that she's been training for this weekend - the Bath Hilly Half. We'd all booked to stay overnight to watch, but she's had to withdraw from it, and then build up slowly again in a couple of weeks. So it looks like we'll all be going to watch everyone else! And although I've carried on with the running, I really miss my running buddy. I think we've both got used to the company while running, so it seems very strange when I go out on my own. 

So, with all this going on, and working a few extra hours at the office to try and build up some extra time, I've been so tired at night. Hence no blog. Which I kept telling myself to do, but then fell asleep!
