    I don't feel in the mood for anything either. tired and grumpy is how I feel. lots to do but can't be bothered. Think I will lay off the festive spirit today and hopefully get a better night's sleep tonight and feel more festive tomorrow!

    Think I will do the same FE - sounds like a plan :D

    We are just about to have our meal then I will take up residence on the sofa to watch the final of Strictly with possibly a little tipple of something. :)

    Take care everyone

    Good Evening Girls,

    Hope everyone is well and not flooded out.

    My threads for my AOY charity stitch arrived today. I ordered it same time (3 hours apart) as the material for purple work part two and the material arrived on Thursday and the threads today. So hopefully make a start on them soon.

    Thank you to all of you who signed up for quilts for the families affected by the shooting in Connecticut. I have an additional square to do as I noticed one of the wee girls shares the same birthday as me, so I thought I would do one for her too. Thats a total of 8 squares I am doing. Going to buy a big piece of aida and cut it up - cheaper than buying squares individually.

    Hubby got a letter today saying he didn't get the job - sad as it was not far from my work. Just have keep trying.

    Went into Glasgow to get a couple of last minute gifts - was surprised how quiet it was - was expecting it to be alot busier. I have a shift to do at work tomorrow, then I am off for two weeks - hope to do most of my quilt stitches then.

    Keep well everyone

    sweetcarer ;)

    First square done, found a Lizzy Kate design but changed the colours, planning to do one in pink and a neutral one also.
