Who would have thought....

Morning folks...it's 3 days since my downhill ski-ing adventure and this old codger...who from time to time forgets that she's not as young as she thinks she is...is still suffering from achey leg syndrome...oh yes those 2 ton stormtrooper look-a-like ski boots and metal planks have taken their toll...perhaps it's time to hang up the real thing and stick to ski-ing with Mario on the Wii. And who would have thought that these words would ever pass my lips but I'm looking forward to a sitting down day at the computer nailing the last of the Fiskars step-by-steps...oops perhaps just one sneaky peek too many...
aided and abetted by my snuggly Furry crafty helper...just a shame that his attention span is virtually nil and very soon he'll be collapsed on the floor and snoring his head off...don't be fooled by the "who me" look...
Hallelujah...the cubbyhole has returned to normal...well as normal as it ever gets around here...the Fiskars samples are all boxed up and will be winging their way to Fiskars a la Francais tout suite but...
I'll be like a hen on a hot girdle until I know they've arrived safely...the thought that they might get lost en route doesn't bear thinking about...making them all over again definitely does not float my boat. But before we settle down for a step-by-step and coffee day...it's time for some birthday wishes...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
to my lovely buddies DEBBI and PBSC Teamie JENNY
21 again girls...hope you have an extra special day with lots of cake and pressies
big hugs from Buddy and Me xxx
I'll see you all tomorrow for another challenge over at Penny Black Saturday which reminds me the DT card is still on "last minute Annie's" list of things to do today.
Hugs Kath xxx

    Morning Kath, hope the old legs are feeling better today, and remember your only as old as you feel. Ha Ha!

    Bet you're relieved the your Fiskers parcel is posted.

    Should that read Hot Gridle not girdle but at least the hot girdle will keep your back warm :)

    have a good day.

    Wahoo . . . playtime now . . .
    Err, perhaps you should have split the parcel in two, then if one got lost you'd only have HALF to do again!???? xxx

    Hi Kath,
    Glad you've managed to get those Fiskars samples off in the post. I'm fair looking forward to some Kath inspiration again. I should think that after a day on the 'piste' you deserve a lie down let alone anything else!!

    Hi Kath, glad to hear the samples are all done know and safely posted.

    I was going to do lots this week but a bit of a computer mishap. On Wednesday night I looked at it and there was a black screen with a message saying no internal hard disc detected! Excuse me you were ok a minute ago. My son diagnosed that I did need a new hard disc. Off to PCW this morning. And spent the rest of the day getting my laptop to co-operate. Wasted hours getting it to boot again. thought it would be simple. Needless to say then it refused to acknowledge my broadband. It was very close to wearing a black overcoat!!

    Well I think those soft brown eyes were watching your coffee - to ensure that mug didn't upend itself all over those samples; since I can see they are safely wrapped I can breathe a sigh of relief. Hope you're less achey today (Sat).

    All I can say is if that were my coffee it would have been all over my computer and paper. You are soooo very brave and I do love your dog.
