WOYWW #312

Thank you Julia and Congratulations for another wonderful year of friendships and sharings and viewings and laughings and cryings and learnings and .........

I am one of those people who never know what day of the week it is BUT I always seem to know when it is Wednesday!!!

I had such plans for today ..... lots of visits and addy swapping for ATCs but ..... it has all gone by the board.  I'm afraid the time allotted for YEAR 6 goings on has been spent in sleeping .... those with children will understand ..... even then they are grown up, and have their own children, they are our children ...... several hours last night were spent at A & E for my brave little new mother to be 'sorted'.  She is now back home and much more comfortable ......... but I 'lost' those few hours and if you saw my schedule for the next seven days ........... well!!??!  Every minute counts round here ..... so here is this week's desk .... in much disarray .....


Yesterday I was at our Craft Group which happens to have a large W H Smith's nearby so I popped in ........ for a TV paper!!!   Thought I was going to buy some mags didn't ya?  Well ....... three but look at those free gifts!!!!
We visited B & Q for some soil .... I visited the wall paper dept. - never miss an opportunity dear friends ..........
So there you have it .... maybe not ....... I spy just a few (9 to be exact!) little atcs peeping out there ..... leave me a comment if you would like to swap and I will get back to you ....... maybe not this week .... busy schedule and all that!  lol

You have a good woywwing week.

  1. Hi Christine... and yes, having children around (no matter how old) takes up our time and energy... we all understand that! Since you are the next * on the list I will send you my ATC. I hope you find time to leave me a comment on my blog so that I have your email address and can get back to you for your address. Hope you have a (bit of a) relaxed day. Happy woyww and happy 6th anniversary. May we 'meet' many times more. Love from Holland, Marit #43 and #44 (forgot the asterix the first time around, oops...)

  2. aww Hope all is well. My "children" are all grown up - but still at home and need me most of the time so I get how much time it takes up xxHa Ha I am the same, pop into the super store for milk and come back with at least one mag and probably £70 more of food than i intended!!

  3. Adult children, tell me about it! We have spent the last 4 weeks visiting and supporting, helping and doing for our children and grandchildren. We don't mind. There were some crises and it was good we were there actually.
    I’m still travelling but managed to have internet today so I’m visiting as many of you as I can. Happy anniversary all! Six years is quite a long time.
    Have a good week and CU Wednesday

  9. At least you got to join in the celebration. Although I don't have children (cats are NOT children, regardless how some people treat them), I know about real life getting in the way of other plans. Hope you can find some "me" time in that busy schedule.

    I live in the States, and they no longer give wallpaper or border samples away. Such a shame, too, but I have loads I got while they were free for the taking.

    Happy, happy 6th WOYWW anniversary from #1 (and please get some rest, which it sounds like you might need).

  11. Oh my Christine, I hope that all is well for the baby Mummy now, it's all so fraught. Hope too that you can pinch some time to catch up on sleep...being tired really heightens emotions for me, not good when you're trying to hold it together for your babies of any age! Super impressed at the wall paper and aren't the magazines generous!

  16. I love those wallpaper bits you have. That gives me the idea that I need more of those :) I spent the day yesterday with my biggest kid AKA my husband at the hospital for a minor surgery. Those place are so drab and boring...as well as nerve racking. Glad everything is ok with yours. <3 Shel @ PaperOcotilloStudio #31

  18. I love those freebies you got with the mags...that is the only reason I buy mags too...can't wait for these to hit our shelves...we are always a little behind as the postage seems to be a little slow. Hope you get more sleep as the week wears on. #26
