Well, it's my day off today and I decided it would be a good idea to sort out one of the playroom cupboards. It's a floor to ceiling cupboard, about 3ft wide, so BIG!
It was jammed from top to bottom with so much craft stuff that I couldn't take anything out without a hundred other things fallen out as well. I have emptied about a third of the stuff out & now wish I hadn't started it, but of course it'll never all fit back again so I'm going to have to just get on with it.

If you ever see me looking at The Crafty Crocodiles or Baker Ross sites, please remind me that I do not need to buy any more resources for at least the next 10 years!!!

Enjoy your sorting.

Only got 2 babes today who both go by 4pm and they are currently asleep so very relaxed here and starting to look forward to half term :-)

Now closed for half term. everything tidied away, 13 year old lab allowed on the sofa for a change, so he is in heaven. Christmas cake and puddings to be made, chimney to be swept, carpets to be cleaned, garden to be winterised, a PhD to be finalised, but for now.DH is making in his craft room, listening to Pink Floyd - his heaven. I am ..curled up with a good book...I am doing nothing but reading this weekend - my heaven.
Enjoy the weekend everyone.

Ours broke up on Wednesday. Had eight yesterday and six today and all the children have been so good, really easy days, busy but so well behaved it's been a joy.
No children Monday, Thursday or Friday. Only two lo on Tuesday and three on Wednesday so nice easy week for me :clapping:

Yep, half term here too next week.
Earliest start is 8am so will manage (hopefully) to get a lie in - normally up at 6am, and will need the rest as most of mine are schoolies and they are always full of energy :laughing: I'm gonna be s-h-a-t-t-e-r-e-d with a capital K by Wednesday :laughing:
