Mojo Monday....

Hi,
Just when you think I've disappeared forever... I'm back! Inspiration came from Mojo Monday #146... what a great sketch! This is for a friend of mine who loves cake... I mean she LOVES cake!!! She is worse than a kid if she doesn't get a birthday cake... she always buys one herself to make sure she gets one!!!
Suddenly lately I miss decorating cakes... I used to decorate all kinds of special occasion cakes when I worked in a cake shop... Am going to be making my son a cake for Friday... my baby is 8 on friday!!!! I honestly don't know where the time goes... one minute it's January and all of a sudden we've done Easter, then I'm shopping for holiday clothes... I had a meeting about my daughters high school last week... I know she is 9 but it only seems like a couple of years ago we were starting in Reception!!! Suddenly I feel old!!!!!
I'm going to have a nice cup of tea... and do some crafting!!! Think I'm going to be naughty, run the hoover over the living room and leave the ironing til later.... do some crafting instead!!!!
Hope the sun is shining where you are... it's very dark here, think we are in for a storm!!!!!
Hugs

Where does the time go?!!!

Hi,
I haven't had any time to craft just lately... I don't know where the time goes! I was determined to get up early so that I could make some time this morning... my cards are getting extremely low and I have a load of birthdays coming up all at once so I really need to find some time.

Here is the card I have made this morning... my inspiration came from Friday Sketchers # 109. What a great sketch... all that paper eh?!


Unfortunately my Aunt is not well at all, the chemo is really knocking her about this time and she is in hospital at the moment! I am all of a dither about going down for a visit tomorrow to see her... it's so awkward being so far away. I have no one I can leave the kids with here so I have to take them with me and although they are always pretty good, hospital visits and kids just don't go especially after a 2 hour car drive!!!!
OH has a bug... so of course he is dying... the kids have had it but of course his is much worse!!!! Honestly! My 9 year old daughter said yesterday that daddy was 'such a child'... I think she was selling herself short there because after one day off school, she was back doing her usual stuff and getting on with life... after two days daddy is still dying!!!! Bet he's recovered by Friday... he's off to France fishing!!!!
The children and I are off to Sussex with my mum in a few weeks... lets hope the weather holds out, eh!!!! Hope it's gorgeous where you are too....
Hope you have a great weekend.
Hugs
Kim
