Another Post

 Goodness me... 

Thank you so much for your comments and the lovely cards I have received. 

Our postal system is dire despite the charges, but it's about to be taken over so one can only hope that it gets back to they way it used to be. I have posted cards but whether they get there is another matter.

I find it difficult to photograph my watercolours but I attempted to do just that prior to posting. Here are some ..

I did lots of trees

Of course in Blues and greens

Unfortunately it doesn't show the sparkle

Then some foliage...

And finally I did a few of these girls in snowy scenes but didn't think to photograph them before posting

I will try to be a better blogger and share when I can, my hands are painful most of the time which doesn't help. Maybe I'll share some sewing projects... I can use the machines but hand sewing, oh my...

Till next time

Merry Christmas

 Well it's been far too long and honestly I'm not sure what to say really...

I do hope this finds you well and not too stressed and if I have missed important matters I can only apologise.

I'm still uncertain as to whether I will carry on with blogging or if there is anyone who even still follows me - I guess my life has changed so much these past few years and no doubt some of you  may have been the same. Each day I wake up and I'm grateful for being here and still having my husband, my son and my small family.

It has been another year of far too many hospital visits, more surgery and mishaps, including part of my chest bursting open during the night following my last surgery, my husband collapsing a few times and we even managed to catch covid. We lost a number of friends this year, each one suddenly without warning and for awhile our world crumbled.

On the upside, last week my husband got the "all clear" and I finally got discharged from both the lung clinic and the breast clinic at the end of October. I still go back for fluid to be drained when necessary but it feels weird not to be regularly visiting the hospital.

I did carry on painting but sewing has been my main pastime along caring for my husband who is nearly 81 and sadly not what he used to be.

My stamps, dies and stencils have not seen the light of day for a long time and I'm not sure that they ever will...

After all we have endured these past 2 years we are looking forward to Christmas together and celebrating our Silver Wedding Anniversary in January.

So on that note I wish you all a very Happy Christmas, may the New year bring you good health and happiness

Ros
