    Peeping round the door (:)

    Hi everyone, sorry it`s been so long since I was here.
    Been under a VERY big black cloud for the last few weeks but starting to brighten up again finally. Have been re-living the nightmare of losing my dear Jim 3 years ago and for some reason this year is worse than last.

    Of course the other big black clouds haven`t helped - bloomin rain clouds I mean. Isn`t it ridiculous that I`m sitting here with the lights on, central heating on and tumble dryer going to get the washing dry -in JULY :eek:

    Got so much to catch up on so have put the kettle on and going to read back some pages. Ta ta the noo.

    hi psso, welcome back and a huge hug from me.
    things cant be easy and something always pops up to knock you back when you least expect it to, take things a day at a time and just do what you feel like.

    the weather really isnt helping o another thread on here people have been mentioning SAD and saying its starting early this year, i dont think it really went away after last winter as we just havent had a summer or any decent sunshine yet.

    Great to hear from you, Elaine. Have a hug from me.

    Shaz - I'm so glad you're feeling good!

    I've just found this article about a girl who knitted her own wedding dress, and it looks lovely! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2175455/Bride-KNITS-dress-hunts-crockery-charity-shops-5-000-recession-wedding.html She's a real money-saving bride!

    Hugs Psso, hope you begin to feel brighter. Maybe we will get some sun soon and it will help :)

    I have a little line of hedgies here, am enjoying them too. Last night I knitted an owl, got the basic idea from somewhere on the web then altered it to suit, he is a chubby little fella and am really pleased with him and he doesnt take long. May try on in aran that a little bigger and see if he develops into a cushion size.

    HAd better get into gear and make tea as DS is due home soon. xxx
