Panic Stations...

Good morning all...let's cut to the chase...no point in beating about the bush...it's panic stations big time in the cubbyhole. This crazy old crafter got a rude awakener yesterday morning when Facebook reminded me that this time last year the personal Christmas production line was ticking along nicely...

whereas this year...it hasn't even begun. But it did reinforce the need for a huge kick up the butt and after a straight 12 hour shift in the cubbyhole yesterday...lots of "can't share yet" stuff has been ticked off the crafty list. And with no time to take my usual two hour "walk the Furry Boy and have something to eat" break in the middle of the day...I resorted to a quick trot around the block and very naughty drastic measures...shovelling a a quick coffee and 2 Twirls down my throat...I know not good and if I keep going at this rate...I will be mixing the christmas cake with one hand...making cards with the other and could end up looking like one big roly poly crafter by the time Christmas arrives.
And of course...it's Friday (Black Friday no less and yes I have been a bit naughty and grabbed a few bargains) which means another day of gallivanting with the Friday Girls and when you've only done one and a bit day's work in a 5 day week it looks like I'll be having a "burning the midnight oil/all hands to the pump" weekend. Have fun whatever you have planned and I'll see you on Monday to share my DT project for the brand new challenge over at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.
Toodle-oo for now

  5. Sometimes this retirement lark is not all it is cracked up to be, is it Kath - lol! If I spent less time thinking and more time doing, I might be finished mine by now - I have finished 6 though. I took some time out to look at the sales too, and was a bit naughty, but hey, who can pass up a bargain! Have a great weekend my friend. Hugs, Anne xx
