Oh dear, sorry no photos because little boy broke his arm yesterday. We have spent yesterday and today in hospital, waiting for his arm to be operated on, only to be told to go home and come back on Monday. This is because 2 years ago he broke the same arm and had plates put in and it now needs a specialist to fix it. what with me and my foot still out of action we look like a comedy act!! it doesn't rain but it pours. They say life only throws at you what you can cope with, well I am fed up with coping and would like something more cheerful to happen. if you left a comment for the giveaway which hardly anyone did because I'm sure no one bothers to read my dreary blog anymore, please bear with me or should that be bare with me, I haven't forgotten but life is complicated right now.

hi hope everything starts gettin betta soon sounds like ur really havin a hard time.

Just popped by to say hi. I really am sorry to see the situation you are in. I can imagine how 'down in the dumps' you must be feeling and your son too. I hope you soon both start to heal. Keep your chin up, things will get better, once you are able to get back on the go. x

oh thats bloody awful!!! It does indeed pour-never get any light showers here either.I have been so down in the dumps lately that I actually bought myself a gorgeous little notebook and I am trying to fill it with nothing but happy thoughts and doodles!Giveaways are funny things.I have done one and have put off doing another yet because I thought more people would want a gift than actually did!! Some of these ladies have been at it for a long time and have a cult like following.Not sure that I envy that...You will both be ok soon and get your mojo back I'm sure : ) XX

Oh poor litle boy! And poor you too! I hope things improve dramatically for you all very soon. But I have to disagree with you - your blog isn't dreary at all!!!! Lucy x

Sorry you are in the rainy season - I have to admit things have been crap (excuse french) for moi lately it must be the time of year - I find the blog the only thing which keeps me going as you have to focus on the positive. In fact that's why I started dong it - I said I didnt have time for a journal! Ha! I often wonder how many people actually read my blog. I too have just done a give away and only 1 responded so I feel a bit disappointed - I think it must take time for people to get a reputation and a following. Soempeople do give aways and have hundreds of comments. It would be interesting to find out who visits and when but I have to get my sixth form to put things on for me and we havent worked out a counter yet. Anyway - this long long comment is supposed to sympathise, empathise and encourage. So firstly I love your VW how can you be sad with that outside! I am green with envy and I love the things you make. I hope your foot is feeling better and your little one is feeling comfortable. love and big HUGS H
