    Thank you

    I spoke to a colleague who has worked with her a while and so know everything in there are things she would like. Wanted to make it as personalised as possible.

    I have a day off tomorrow!! Yippee!!

    I have about 6 deliveries due so will need to be at home all day.

    I also have DD's horse riding and then she has scouts at the evening time.

    I have some furniture for the new craft room being delivered. That is exciting!! The hamper will be wrapped tomorrow and then taken on Wednesday. I have another order at the weekend.

    I also have some bookings on my wreath making class at Christmas. First year I have externally advertised, so all new to me.

  • That’s horrible news @Willowtree222 - do you have all the details yet? It might not feel it immediately but redundancy at times can be the best thing to happen to someone 🙌
