Wet Day ... Friday... Fun Day!

A stormy afternoon, Miss 3 curled up on the rocking chair watching a DVD, one big dog flopped at her feet, Miss 5 at school....aaah, there is washing to be folded, ironing to be done, an Art Journal class to begin plus a multitude of other choices - but I think a test drive of my new sewing cabinet is the way to while away the next couple of hours before pick up....

Happy Mothers Day To Me!

My present from my beautiful girls and my darling husband, kindly assembled by my lovely father in law who is here visiting from Ireland.

Horn Sovereign Mark II cabinet....my next PIF is sat on top of it about to have some more work done on it!

Needless to say I am very excited and am looking forward to setting all my things up on it and in it and using it going forward.

Happy Mothers Day to you, have a fabuous day. I am looking forward to a relaxing day spending time with the 3 people I love most in the world!

Perhaps 40 books in 2009???

So we are almost at the end of the first quarter of the year - can you believe it? At this rate I will only get 40 books read by the end of the year...Yesterday I finished my #10 book, "The Undomesticated Goddess" by Sophie Kinsella. Easy reading chick lit, most enjoyable. This morning I went back to "The Widow Clicquot" by Tilar J. Mazzeo. I am 1/4 or so way through it and needed a little break, therefore The Undoemsticated Goddess (finished in about 36 hours).

Also for those you who have been following my Strawberry Lemonade quilt progress, I only have one more circle to hand quilt and then she needs to be bound and she will be completd. I am looking forward to that!!!!

My 3 lovely Pay It Forward gals, please email me at kayscha@hotmail.com with your details so I can send you little parcels...some time this year!!

Pay It Forward...

I was reading one of my fave blogs - RED IN OZ and Esther has jumped in on Pay It Foward. I was so excited and was delighted to see I was comment #3. So....This is how it works:The first three people to comment on this post will receive a gift from me, sometime within the next 365 days. Who knows when it will turn up, or what it will be, but rest assured, it will arrive. All you have to do is promise to make the same declaration on your blog, and send out gifts to three of your lovely readers.The concept is fantastic, each person involved sends a little gift on to three others, who send on to three (9) others who send on to 3 (27)and so on and so on. Everyone involved has up to 365 days from joining in to 'pay it forward'.

It doesn't look like anyone is reading my blog these days so maybe this will get you all interested again xxx

So comment away!
