Busy....busy and oh the mess

Morning folks and have I been busy busy.....first Christmas project done and dusted....just the materials lists and instructions to write and to be honest that takes longer than making the flipping cards and the devastation of two days of mad frantic crafting.....the brand new cubbyhole....well it's messy....why do busy and messy go hand in hand.....

 
and I ain't showing you the floor..... it's a carpet of strips of paper and sticky buds but nothing that a little jig round with Mr Dyson won't put to rights....but he's got double the work today...have a little confession to make....didn't vacuum at all yesterday.....it's our little secret and I won't tell if you don't... only thing is we now have goodness knows how many billion Buddy hairs floating around in the atmosphere and hip hip hooray for the good old Dyson......something that actually does what it says on the tin......which brings me nicely onto Mr Blogger.....which planet is this guy on.....last night I thought I would sit down at the computer and pop over to some of my faves.....first he tells me that I don't follow anybody so no luck there and then when I try to do a bit of blog hopping.....I get the message that my computer is sending automated queries....so for safety...he isn't allowing me to open the page.....what a load of old bollocks.   I think he just wanders from blog to blog annoying folks.     And what's the news on "The Hub"...yes it did arrive yesterday but didn't have time to get it up and going....just a quick look in the box and shock horror....it's black......no way does that fit in my new cubbyhole colour scheme....do you think it would still work if I painted it RED.....maybe not.
And a little sneaky peek for you......the first item for the candy......

My Mind's Eye....Colorful Christmas
9 - 12 x 12 Papers and Die Cut Accessory sheet
and they are yummy delicious.......
Now don't enter yet.....just giving you a little taster....candy will be announced soon....but lots more stuff to gather together......so watch this space.
My special little fella....GS Brodie is starting school today....wow I can hardly believe...it just seems like yesterday he arrived in the world and made me the happiest Grandma on the planet.....brings a little tear to the eye.....before you know it.....he will be leaving and looking for a job.....where does time go and don't anybody dare mention the "C" word and how many days still left to shop.......might just tip me over the edge.
"His Nibs" and I are off for our morning stroll and yes back to get everything spick and span before we are knee deep in dog hairs.....and who knows may manage another challenge today....catch up with you all later.
Hugs Kath xxxxxxx
P.S. And in answer to the comment "do I stand up to craft"....the answer is YES and it comes from years of teaching ceramics and doing card workshops and demos.....just can't do it sitting down for some reason.
