Wishing You Sunshine!

Hello Everyone, hoping all is well with you and that the day has been kind to you.
Thank you all so much for your kind words of empathy, it does encourage me.  It isn't nice feeling stressed, especially when you've got to give in to it, and I do feel guilty having to come off work and leaving my colleagues struggling, but I just knew I couldn't go on and the last thing I wanted was to go completely down the tubes.  As I have to continue to work thanks to the government moving the goal posts, I do want my last few years to be constructive and enjoyable, It's ironic that I work in the mental health field.  Anyway enough of that.

Welcome to my latest followers too, great to have you visit me and thrilled that you want to do so.

We had a lovely day in Elgin, the weather was sunny with just a little bite to the breeze, and we eventually found the craft shop.  Oh such goodies!! Alistair remained in the car and I thought great he won't see what I'm buying, but I must have taken too long cos in he comes, however I continued to wander around and he soon got fed up and went out again to the car.  Didn't buy lots, but I wanted to get some Sugar Nellie stamps.  The shop had quite different things to the craft shops here in Inverness.  loved it.  I really want to get through to The Papeterie, but I think that is somewhere nearer Aberdeen, and for another day, maybe with out hubby.
Then we walked in to the centre of Elgin to the music shop for something called a "frog", which is on the end of a fiddle bow.  Not lucky, shop didn't have any and would cost £27 if it was ordered.  You can buy a new bow for half that price.  Now I'm not sure why this piece is required as his the bow he plays with seems fine, but what do I know, he was a bit disappointed he couldn't get one.  He soon cheered up at the Ashvale fish and chip restaurant where we had a fantastic lunch. Needless to say my blood sugar is through the roof, but it was a day for treats.

Back home now and Alistair is away for a cycle to work of his meal, I don't do exercises, it's against my religion, so I thought I would catch up on your blogs, and what lovely creations there are, such talented people out there.
 I have a card to share today;

Isn't he just so cute, one of Mo Manning's latest stamps and it's called Sunshine, I've coloured with Promarkers, LOTV sentiment, Papers are First Edition New Leaf, The Ribbon Girl Lace, Xcut dies and MB dies.  Kraft card base with Centura Pearl card , gems and Star Dust.

Just before I go, I have to tell you that there is another treat in store tomorrow, Patricia(SummerhouseCrafts), and her sister Hazel and their friend Elaine are coming to Inverness tomorrow and we are meeting up, I'm really excited and looking forward to eventually having them here.  The weather rained off play the last time it was arranged. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.
That's me for today, Have a great weekend, whatever your doing,
