Mission Accomplished Or Not...

Hi folks...if you popped over this morning expecting a "Mission Accomplished" post with lots of sharing of crafty stuff...I'm sorry to say you are going to be disappointed...I've fallen by the wayside with my intentions...more like Mission Impossible...Mr Nasty Virus/Cold Thingy is back...think I took my eye off the ball on that one...apparently the sneaky beggar left temporarily to regroup and recruit some reinforcements so it's back to sore head/runny nose...the barking like a dog cough and uncontrollable sneezing which presents it's own challenges when you get to the old wrinkly stage of life...enough said.
My fun day out at Hobbycraft probably didn't help either...given the choice of where I wanted to demo...right in the middle of the store or at the front door...I opted for the best location to attract customer attention...
but not so good when the automatic doors were more open than closed and the store is right in the line of fire of the chilly Arctic winds blowing in from the North Sea. It certainly hasn't helped either that the Furry Boy's in built alarm clock hasn't yet adjusted to the clock change...don't do mornings at silly dark chilly o'clock.
But hey ho...I thought I might be able to deal with the interloper peacefully...apparently not...WAR has now been declared...no way is this blighter accompanying me on my trip to Birmingham so I'm off to Tesco to splash the cubbyhole stash cash on yet another jar of Manuka Honey and keep up the 3 times a day routine until I'm absolutely positive that I've seen the last of him.
In the meantime I'm soldering on with my Creative Chemistry homework and will leave you with some cheeky sneaky peeks of time spent having fun with gorgeous die cuts and stamps...



and I'll see you all tomorrow.
Hugs Kath xxx

  2. I quite agree - try to rest up for a couple of days. Keep warm and hydrated and get lots of sleep - mother nature's healer. Hope you feel better very soon. X

  3. Good Morning Kath. I can sympathise. The steady lurgy has left me with a very annoying cough too, but I have little or no energy left, even after antibiotics. However, the Dr took blood from me yesterday,so we'll see the outcome of that. It certainly gets you down when your used to being busy. Take Care. Hugs Rita xxx

  7. Oh Kath , like you I am trying to get over a nasty cold that I pick up on a long flight to Canada as I am going with friends to the NEC. mr Nasty has now gone for my joints don't know what is going to be next, like Rita I have to go for blood test. Keep warm and drink plenty of water is what I was told to do in the mean time. Love the sneak previews.

  14. Hi Kath, so sorry to hear you are under the weather again, it must be bad because you are a hardy woman who doesn't give in to illness. I take honey every day so here's hoping it relieves your symptoms a lot overnight. Your sneak peaks are looking good, here's hoping you wake up feeling a lot better tomorrow...Trish
