    I am, thanks! 😊 It was so long it's made 4 pony tails to send to the Little Princess Trust to be made into wigs for girls, so it's gone to a good cause!

    Good morning and happy Thursday 📚🍫☕️
    I was just sorting my leave and have requested tomorrow off as flexi…fingers crossed.
    it’s been so rainy here, the garden has pools and is like a bog and the river is raging. I don’t know where it’s all coming from 🤣
    I had a spend accident yesterday and ordered some fat quarters from the hobby place where we must not go! The sneaky devils sent me a £5 off voucher, which resulted in an £80 spend on some material I can’t use until I’ve finished this project 🙄 I’m weak, what can I say 😧 But I have big plans for a blue log cabin quilt, once I’ve got this hst under my belt.
    So with that and the goodies bulk order last week, I really should not spend until May now 😬 Wish me luck! 
    I’m so rubbish at this being good thing.
    I have got a couple of new contracts at work and am loosing one…not really a fair swap, but is it ever?
    Other than that, nothing to report. I hope you all have a fabulous Thursday filled with all good things 🍫📚☕️🧁

    Stop thinking of it as being good or bad. That doesn't help like with dieting. Occasional slip ups are fine. Just take stock of what craft projects you have to do now. Make a list and look at that list before buying more.

    WinterWarrior - I'm quietly envious of you spending in the hobby place, I can't even go on the website!!!

    Are you in their club nanny? Every so often they email a £5 voucher which you can use in store or on line. I don’t think there’s a minimum spend on it. Their fat quarters are cheaper than most fabric stores.

    I haven't even got to the point where I'm eligible for one voucher 😁 my spends in there are very few and far between.

    I’m not sure it’s based on spends, I maybe spend £50-£80 there once or twice a year? I just thought it was random 😬
