Thank you for your comments regarding Rowan, I'm happy to say she is on the mend, but having to take little on the lead walks until her wound heals up and a restrictive diet. Not a happy doggy with that as she is used to off the lead to run wild with Milo. Nothing found when they operated, so it seems it was a very bad gastric something.
I've been to three Aqua aerobic classes so far, and enjoying them, but my legs are sore....but I think that's more to do with using muscles that have not been used in a while rather than knee pain, which is still there, I'm ever hopeful though. All the ladies, and one man are a jolly sociable crowd, so all good.
My card today is for a friend's husband's 70th birthday. Unfortunately, I had absolutely nothing in my stash to make something with any of his hobbies, so I went with trees. All the men in my life are mountaineers, canoeists, cyclists, and Peter doesn't do anything like that, but I reckon everyone likes trees.
Thank you so much for the lovely comments left on my previous post, I do like to read what you think of my crafty efforts, as sometimes I feel my mojo has deserted me and they are not all that good. I know we are our own worst critics.
Well, that's me for now, so cheerio and hope to be back soon,

Hi Kate...loving your trees and background,some men are so difficult to make cards for....and I think you are right...who doesn’t love a tree....
I spent my day having disasters in my craft room...I should have known when I dropped the glitter all over the floor that it was going to be one of those days..and it was culminating with me falling over chasing a spider...well he was a big one!....hugs xxxx
We do all love trees, great choice of card

I'm so pleased to hear that Rowan is on the mend, it is difficult when they can't run like they would normally - they just don't seem to understand!
