What a wonderful sky, this only lasted a few minutes and was the only shot I managed to get before the camera batteries ran out!

What happened to January?

Hmm.......... new year resolutions to blog regularly seem to have melted away with all the snow we had over the holidays.
January has been a tough month for us, weather has put paid to plans of going out and selling on our stalls, then there have been the colds and the my left leg stuff.
Ha, that poor leg, 3 good falls and then too much dancing at Helens wedding! However leg got better when I made a doctors appointment!

My new post card

This is a shot of my new postcard. Lovely collage on the front with some thumbnails on the back and my contact details. Just finished a new bookmark business card to give out at shows. Folks must like them because a few people have enquired about whether they can buy one!
It has been a really buisy week for me, the lovely people at Ferrers Gallery at Staunton Harrold have moved from having my work on sale or return, to buying it in. Thats given me a terrific boost in confidence! Then there was the Stamford Art Centre Craft Fair on Sunday to get ready for. And as usual, the more I do then the more ideas I get.............. had to get up at 4.30 this morning to get started again. Talking of work, must get back to it............

Poor babes

Such an upsetting time here, after all the efforts the boys made to hatch their chicks, when they were big enough to go into their coop the weather changed, the temperature dropped and torrential rain gave some of them a chill. Although we brought them inside and put hot water bottles under their straw we have now lost 5 of them.

Car boot treasure (with extra boots)

Monday morning?

What should be Monday morning has turned into2.15 pm on Monday afternoon, thanks to some anti virus messup on our system. Have had to carry on an online sometimes tennis like dialogue with an unknown computer nerd, god knows where who now thinks i'm rude stupid and can't spell! If that's you, i'm sorry, I just dont type as fast as you or speak computerese! Oh and thanks for your help but sorry to say it diddnt help.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Am going to switch everything off now and ignore it.
It was a lovely weekend though, and we did try a new market on Friday and the sun shone, oh how the sun shone! And the visitors and customers were all so lovely.
AND the car boot gods were smiling on me on Sunday, the car started and treasures were found!

Where it all happens.
