those pesky household chores...

Morning folks...I enjoyed reading all your comments yesterday about which crafty task would tempt me and was tickled by Julia's comment that I would nail all 3...I've seen the day but now it's definitely night...the answer is NONE...to be honest I couldn't decide...yes that old age indecisiveness thing got me again so I abandoned the cubbyhole...caught up on some pesky household chores...well someone's got to do it...then headed for the kitchen and got stuck into making loads of yummy soup to stock up the freezer...
There's nothing quite like a great big steaming bowl of home made soup to make you feel all warm and toasty  and just the ticket for the batten down the hatches weather we're having...the wind is blowing right down from the arctic but still no sign of snow. And I think I know why. Cast your mind back to last winter...the car marooned for weeks and The Furry Boy and his Mum struggling every day on our slippery slidey morning strolls...well I had no intentions of getting caught out this year...getting ahead of the game and ready for anything the weather could throw at us...fitting Winter Tyres to the car and investing in Snow-Traks for my feet...thinking that once the snow arrived they would be on everybody's shopping list. And what happens...we've had zilch...nada...absolutely NIL...I am willing those snowflakes to start falling from the sky so that my expensive investment doesn't turn out to be a spur of the moment white elephant.
And I'm definitely pushing the boat out in the excitement stakes today...I'm tackling the ironing mountain...it gets a bit of a problem when you have more clothes awaiting the smoothing iron than are hanging in the wardrobe and believe me...this is definitely a job requiring all my big knicker willpower.  In the meantime some cards I made with the The Moorish Collection "Project Of The Month Kit" from Craftwork Cards....yes the one that is so MORE-ISH...as always with Craftwork Cards it's full to brimming with yummy products...





See you all tomorrow for sneaky peek Friday
