You would not believe how quickly time goes by in this house. Ive been meaning to post here for days now and finally Ive found some time in between family life to share some news with you. Last week ...
I know its been a while since I last posted but Im back! I dont really want to dwell too much on why Ive been gone but instead I want to share a new exciting project that marks my return to feeling b...
Another week has flown by and unfortunately four out of six of us have been struck down by a rather nasty stomach bug. Im not really one to be pessimistic but so far this year hasnt been so great for...
Dont Tuesdays come around very quickly? This week Ive added another seven squares to my blanket. Im loving how the addition of more squares changes how it looks and I cant wait to add some more squar...
Its been quite productive here this week. I think the time away from work has done me lots of good and boosted my creativity. This week Ive added nine squares to my blanket. I think the photo I quick...
The road to feeling myself again means finding pleasure in the simple things and what could be more uplifting to the soul than a walk in the park with Pippa and Lucy Labrador. It was a very cold and ...
I have a stash of sock yarn and no desire to make any more socks, so Ive been browsing Ravelry for simple sock yarn hats to make with my stash. This week I cast on Sockhead Hat by Kelly McClure, with...
Oh, it feels so good to be back! And I am very excited to tell you about the new project I have picked to start the New Year with. I am sure many of you will have seen this project already but just i...
After my last post things all got a little much here and I hadnt planned to be away from Blogland for quite as long as I have. Its hard for me to write exactly what happened but Im a whole lot better...
Apologies again for posting so late in the day. Its been a tough few weeks here in the Gingerbread House and Ive decided in view of that and the festive season to have a little break from Tuesdays Ta...
Things are not hugely different here today than they were yesterday. The younger girls are still not well and Im finding it all incredibly draining. I am very much looking forward to when everyone is...
Please accept my sincere apologies for posting todays Tuesdays Tallies so late in the day. The last few days have been very intense with the two youngest girls suffering with awful colds. Katherine i...
I wish I could find more time in my busy days to blog more, but its just not happening. My days seem to be endlessly filled with tending to the children, walking backwards and forwards to school seve...
Dont Tuesdays come around so quickly? This week I am delighted to have a Ta-Dah! Ive finished my snowflake garland! Im very pleased with it, it looks rather lovely if I do say so myself. Would you li...
What moody weather we are having here today. Its wild and windy out there. Its most definitely a night for staying home, snuggled in front of the fire with a good film on the TV and possibly some hoo...
Last week ended up being one of the worst weeks Ive ever had as a parent. Illness took over the whole week and its a wonder I got anything done at all! Last week we had a rather special delivery here...
Yesterday was a whirlwind of a day and ended with George, the eldest of my four, coming down with a sickness bug. I dont feel so well myself this morning either, so today has turned into a home day a...
I will be back to update this post with photos of my progress and my plans for my One a Day Project - its going Christmassy, so do call back later! Katherine (my three year old) is poorly with yet an...
There we go! All tidy again. I did enjoy tidying my little desk up. Reminding myself of all the lovely books I have and my little collection of Cath Kidston Stationary.The observant folks will notice...
I have two desks, one in the office at the back of the house which is home to my PC and another desk in the lounge. The desk in the lounge is quite a new addition to our home, its a 60s bureau with a...
Tuesday mornings are a very exciting day here. I get up and do the usual morning stuff, of getting at least three out of the four children dressed, supervising teethbrushing, organising school bags, ...
November started without me really noticing so this months mosaic was a little rushed! Im so pleased to finally see a finished ripple photograph there I can tell you! And as always there is lovely ne...
Phew, its now almost 2pm and its my first chance to sit down properly and do my Tuesdays Tallies. Most of the morning has been taken up dealing with an infestation of the headlice variety. Eventually...
Its been half term from school this week and I really hoped to be posting about how much fun we had had, but its turned into an absolute disaster (said in my best Craig Revel Horwood voice). Katherin...
Another week over and yet another week with no blogging inbetween my Tuesdays Tallies. I can get quite alarmed sometimes at how quickly life passes by!So, this week Ive had almost a complete break fr...
I really thought I had more to show this week, but when I have come to take my photograph for todays post I realised it was almost exactly the same as last week! I have joined the groups of four squa...
Have you seen Lucys new ripple........ Gorgeous isnt it? Shes doing a Flickr Ripple Along with Heather from Little Tin Bird. You can find the group here - theres some really gorgeous ripples in the p...
Its Tuesday and time for another update on the one a day project. I havent made much progress this week, mainly because I picked up the ripple blanket on Friday and didnt put it down until I had fini...
All other hooky work has stopped in the last 48 hours and Ive worked the last few rows of colour on the ripple and Ive done it. Its FiNiShEd!!!! Im so pleased with how its turned out and so pleased t...
Its been a while since Ive joined in with WIPW, but I thought it might help me to crack on with some of my WIP that are sitting feeling rather unloved!Firstly some progress reports but no photos Im a...
