Just for You

Hi everyone!

Wow, posting three days in a row ... a first for a long time!  What a lovely day again.  I've been into town to meet up with one of my friends who is recently retired.  It was lovely to have time to potter and have lunch and a good long natter.

Mr C and I had an afternoon out yesterday ... at the Truckfest (yes, Truckfest) at Ingleston.  I just love big trucks and wish I was at least 30 years younger and I could be a truck driver!  For those of you who have been following my blog for a long time you'll remember I was lucky enough to take part in a Fire Service Ladies Driving Day and was able to drive an artic, fire engine, bus etc ... oooooh, bliss!  When we got home we met up with friends, had tea then got flights organised.  Mr C and I have been asked to house sit for friends in Spain while they are on a cruise so our friends are coming too.  That's the end of October, only 11 weeks, and the way time is flying it won't be that long!

fabulous art work

I'm a Stobart fan!

awesome

Off now to make mince and tatties for tea!

Hi everyone!

Missed yesterday, busy day with one thing and another.  Central heating boiler serviced, Mr Tesco delivered shopping and dog to vet for annual MOT ... all go in the Campbell household!

Today I've been in town to get buttons for the cardis and beads to make some more bracelets.  Mr C was up at silly o'clock this morning as he'd to be on the 8.10 train to Glasgow for a safety briefing, he wasn't a happy bunny, he doesn't do early mornings any more!  

I've a cute little fellow to share with you before I post my card.  I've crocheted him for the baby that's due as I'm getting all the vibes that it's a boy without actually being told!  I've a white one in the making should it turn out to be a girl!

   

Onto my card for today now and just a wee word, I might not be around tomorrow as I'm out with my friend and we're meeting up with her sister so goodness knows where we will end up ... I'll let you know though!

Hugs

Happy Birthday

Hello!

The sun is out and it looks nice outside but no doubt will be rather chilly when we venture out later.  Mr C and I are meeting up with friends for a seniors lunch!  Being the big 60 has its advantages!  Tonight my friend and I are going to a bead class and we are making a Kumihimo bracelet.  I'll let you see it tomorrow, even the word sounds complicated.

I've been good this morning, have got started to the ironing pile and stood as long as my back would let me.  Best go and rustle Mr C up.  He's an appointment with the nurse this morning to have his regular BP check and needs to take the dog out before he goes.  All go in our house today!

Enjoy your day.

Hugs

Au Revoir and Hugs

Morning everyone!

This is my last post before Mr C and I are off on holiday.  I haven't got anything scheduled while I'm away so will be back blogging again on 28 March.  I hope you all have fun crafting and keep out of mischief!

I'm going to get shellac done on my nails today, a present from my daughter for Mothers' Day.  I usually do my nails myself but as this lasts for 3/4 weeks it will save me taking all my nail accoutrements with me.  The burning question now is, what colour do I get?

Take care of yourselves while I'm away.

Big hugs

Hi!

Shall I let you into a little secret ... Mr C and I didn't make it for brekkie yesterday.  We were lazy in the morning so we went into town for an hour in the afternoon and had latte and pancakes instead!  Either way it was nice. I'm just looking out of the window and the white stuff is falling again, oh NO!

This is another of my makes from Saturday afternoon.  I love the Less is More challenge and this one is for it.
Hugs
