Merry Christmas to you all

I haven't been in blogland very much lately, Had some catching up to do, getting Christmas shopping done after being stuck indoors for which seemed like forever. Well finally got it all done, and even managed to find time to go back to work after 6 weeks off sick. Yea I know a stupid time to go back the week before Christmas, and to top it all off I've developed a terrible cough feels like my chest is gonna cave in. I think it's got to have been a customer that's passed it on, I should have stayed at home till New Year.

My phone line was out for at least 4 days and so therefore the internet too, so have been trying to get around to everyones blogs this morning, I hope I've managed to comment on each one, but if I missed anyone out I appologise.

I just wanted to say a very big

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my friends atCraft Den

I've already decided to make a new year resolution of more crafting and blogging. Hmmm we'll have to wait and see. I once made a resolution to not swear few years ago, but it didn't last too long as I stubbed my toe the very next morning and that put paid to that.

And now a special message to my favourite crafting sister...... Next year is going to be YOUR year. A NEW START, with plenty of YOU time. I love you very much, and I know it's not going to be easy these next few days, but you have your favourite sister very close by.

With love to everyone . Bye for now. xoxox Ann

And more snow

I've been blog hopping earlier and enjoyed looking at all the pictures you've been posting I thought I'd share a few photo's of our winter wonderland called Norton Lees, although it looks pretty it's all come to a standtill,and ajust listening to weather forcast looks like there's more to come, It's been a long time since we've had snow this bad, I bet Sue wonders where she's moved to,don't worry it's not like this every year, I'm glad I'm not at work, although now my sick note has run out and I'm due back to work Friday, it looks like i'll be walking, hmmmm can't wait.

I sent the old man outside earlier to clear snow away from bird feeders, they were just full of snow, I had to laugh as he went sliding down into the garden, the snow so deep it went over the top of his wellies, wish i'd taken a picture of that.... but at least the birds are able to get some nice seeds.... Ivan is now playing on the wii game of Mario galaxy, if any of you have ever met my hubby he looks a little like Mario, well, a cross between Mario and Manuelle from faulty towers..... it's that moustache that does it...

Anyway to more important things,I've been colouring in images ready for Christmas cards and I've been making a few cards for birthdays, when I can get the photo's off my mobile i'll blog them, my Daughter-in-law on friday and her mum today, hope the postman managed to deliver them ok.... I haven't seen our postie all day.

My new car is playing hide and seek in the snow at the moment,you can just see her as that neighbour passes by, but Ivan managed to get a photo before she disappears altogether..

I think some of the photo's will make some good scrapbook pages...

I hope you are all okay, and that this snow stops soon and we can all get back to that place we all love The Craft Den
