    I have also had a terrible day my fil has been diagnosed with cancer and it is not looking good for him. Looks like I might not be about too much as my lovely mil will need support. I am still going to post the candy on cp but you might have to bear with me a bit.
    In Perfect love and Perfect Trust.

    Evening ladies, just a quick one from me,

    I haven't had a chance to catch up properly and have only briefly flicked through the last 6 ladies (I am going to make you all turn off your computers next time I go away lol)

    Congratulations Loubie ... what a fantastic pressie :)

    Rainmac congrats to you for your spread in the mag, where did you get your inkadinkado stamps?

    I am sorry I am so tired, we have only been in half an hour.

    The funeral was absolutely beautiful, I cried the whole way through from start to finish, the minister was a personal friend of my G'dads and is actually retired but he wanted to take the service, my children were so well behaved I was so proud of them, although a lady from the church came over part way through and took them to the creche for me so I could concentrate on the service. The flowers looked amazing. And lastly my G'dad would have loved every single bit of it which just made it all so perfect. A horrible thing to have to go through but it was so lovely and has really helped me.

    I hope to be back crafting in the next couple of days, I have had cuttlebug folders arrive in the post but have a parcel to collect from somewhere which I think might be my bug?

    We have been to the farm today and the kiddies loved it, a bit or normality before the long drive home.

    Big thankyou to Gemm for my birthday card (and stamped images)

    Big thankyou to Mary for my card (the writing inside is soooo lovely thankyou)

    Thats me done for tonight, sorry I haven't responded to everyone individually.

    Hugs to those who need them xxxx

    I've put another card on my blog & I'm off to bed now. Hopefully I'll get some sleep tonight but I have a feeling my shoulder is going to keep me awake!

    Glad to hear you are back safe & sound Rusty & that the funeral went well. x

    Saveapenny - great news about your holiday, I've always fancied going on a cruise.
    Rainmac - congrats on your order of cards - I'm not surprised she ordered so many - your stuff is fab!!
    Flourgirl - it is quite uncomfortable for me at the minute, but I know its going to get worse. My youngest son was born in October and I remember the September was really hot - it was horrendous! I think its quite hard to put a value on your cards - especially when you think how much time you have put into them. I would say definately at least 1.50 each, maybe going up to 2.50 depending on how much time has gone into them and how much thematerials have cost.
    Npsmama - hope you have a better day tomorrow.
    Mumhug - sorry to hear about your f-i-l.
    Fifi Folle - I'm having a boy - this will be my third!
    Rusty - so glad you're back honey.
