Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday?

Not much here today as I have been having a de-cluttering........no hang on, that's not what happened.  My Daughter had a hobbies night at Beavers yesterday in gain their hobby badge.  Well she pack up my craft things to taken and show what she does, she took LO's she had done and then bags and I mean bags of stash to show what she uses to make them.  So this is my workdesk:

Granny Stripe Blanket, not much done but it is about 2 1/2 metres wide.  Lot more work yet.

Sorry its short & sweet this week but things are a little chaos last few weeks.  Going away tomorrow for the weekend and having to work late tonight so may not get around to visit many of you before the weekend, so may be next week before I get round to most of you.

If you want to know more about this addictive madness, visit Julia at Stamping Ground.

Enjoy your day

Jolly Holiday!

Well I've booked our next little trip away.  Next Thursday evening we are off to here:

Not one of the most attractive looking hotels from the outside but it does have this inside:

Then on Friday and Saturday we are off here:

And finally on Sunday, a bit of culture:

My New Toy......

is this:

Treated myself to a new camera after my nice last one when to a not very nice new home :0( 

Sadly I couldn't afford a camera of the spec of my old one but managed to stretch my funds to this one.  Now just need to have a nice long play with it, preferably without two kids shouting, can I have ago?

This Month I Will.........

1. Kiss and cuddle my little babies at least once every day.
2. Find something to smile about each day.
3. Have a minimum of 30 minutes every day of ME time, no children, no TV, no computer, no telephone, just ME.  As selfish as this may sound, it needs to be done for my own health, both physically & mentally.
4. Go for a walk every day, even if it is only for 5 minutes, I will go outside and walk to clear my head and think about life.
5. Complete 10 LO's, plus the 5 I did not complete in June.  Entering at least 2 into online challenges.
6. Make 3 cards.  Entering at least 1 into online challenges.
7. Complete 15 Granny Squares.
8. Spend an hour each weekend to work on a cross stitch UFO.
9. Do lots and lots of baking
10. Enjoy our long weekend away in Windsor with a 2 day pass to Legoland.
11. Recharge my batteries
12. Buy no new stash???? As with last month not too sure about this one but I have so many things and just need to use some before new collections are released later in the year and I need to go and buy them.  Can't quite see me going the whole month without finding something that I MUST have.  PS  Subscription kits don't count, but no add ons allowed.
13. Continue to work on my new craft space in order to get it completed by September - being realistic here, it will take a few weeks to do and I don't want to rush to get it completed and end up with things I am not happy with.
14. Research and plan lots of fun activities for the summer hols
15. Play and try to use my new toy properly - will tell you more about that later.
16. Leave work where it belongs, at work.  I will not think & stress about work in MY time.
