Happy Easter

What a weird week of weather. Heavy snow and gales one day, bright sun and mild temperatures the next. Thats my basket of easter eggs on the window sill and you can see all the snow sitting on the ledge. Today however looks like this

This is my nearest town, Largs. This is for you Rowyn seeing as you mentioned you've visited the Largs "pencil."

We dont have much planned for Easter weekend but im looking forward to the 3 of us hanging out as a family. DH has some time off thanks goodness. If one of us is off the other is usually working so its gonna be nice to have some family time!

Ive been working away on "The Tea room." Something nice and spring-like in the face of all the random snow this week
Wishing everyone a Happy Easter!

An update

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes for Caleb. He had a great birthday and a great party. 11 of his little friends turned up with their mummies and daddies. It was chaos! We have some great friends....both new ones and oldies :) On his actual birthday Matthew was off work and we took him to Funworld (a big soft play place that he loves) and had lunch. What a 1st year! A rollercoaster ride.

January has been a busy month what with birthdays and parties and groups starting again and going back to work part-time. Those that are regular readers will know all about my work woes and my horrible, corrupt, manipulative boss. Anyway, changes are ahead (thank goodness) and there may be light at the end of the tunnel in terms of a new job for me! Should know in the next few weeks. It looks like the place i currently work will be shut down and my boss will finally get whats coming to her. Shes got away with a lot in 4 years.

On the stitchy side of life im getting organised. I start so many projects and finish very few. I get bored quickly. After an email from Kathy ive decided to follow her lead and start a rotation. Ive picked 4 projects i'll work on. I'll stitch for 4 days on one and then rotate.

So im gonna work on LHN Fa La La (just cant get this picture to rotate)CCN's The Tea room
Bent Creeks monthly snappers (no wip picture as yet), good old Cirque des Circles which was at this stage last time i updated and finally a 4 day slot for ornaments/gifts. So watch this space to see how it goes!

It's a beautiful day here today. Im hoping to get out for a walk before we go to a birthday party this afternoon (my exercise new years resolution is still being upheld). Enjoy your weekend!
