What's On My Workdesk Wednesday...

Hey folks...it looks like I've been let out of jail...only temporarily I hasten to add...one of those home visit...weekend pass kind of things...I've got a little reprieve from all the DIY stuff until the nice plaster man returns to work his magic on the devastation I caused taking the tiles off the wall...crikey that's a job and a half and no mistake...how come it always starts off great which lulls you into a false sense of security and hey presto before you know there are huge gaping craters staring you in the face requiring a mega patch up job courtesy of hubby...new plasterboard and a lotta lotta hammering.  But Rome wasn't built in a day and no pain...no gain is what they say...so I'm chilling and heading over to Julia's place today for some WOYWW nosey parker fun.
So what's on my workdesk on this "where's the sun gone" morning...all the DIY mayhem has played havoc with the crafty stuff and it's been piling up in the cubbyhole but before I can play...I need to finish off my afternoon workshop project for Kath's Klub at The Papeterie on the 18th...
followed by a feet up coffee break while I browse through this month's Craft Stamper...
and maybe have a little fun with the parcel of Squidgy Pins that the lovely Abbey at Traplet Publications sent me or spend some time in the garden but by the look of this morning's sky we'll probably end up in the cubbyhole watching the rain running down the window...I hope that summer hasn't been and gone and I missed it.
The Furry Boy will be joining you tomorrow to announce the winner of his last give-away and I've got a sneaky feeling he's eyeing up some more goodies to snaffle.
Hugs Kath xxx

    Great to see you back in the cubbyhole Kath! Mind you Buddy has held the fort exceedingly well and I think it was just a matter of time now before he started getting inky paws! Have a great crafty day! Susan x

    Hi Kath
    I think it is safe to say you should stick to crafting and let DH do the tiles.
    Your desk has my fav DI on it and some other lovely crafting stash
    Thanks for sharing your desk today, Happy WOYWW hope you have a great week

    Hi Kath,
    glad to see you got time off for good behaviour (if you ignore the knocking lumps out of the wall incident). The Craft Stamper Mag looks interesting, always stuck for ideas for mens cards.
    Enjoy your freedom while you can.

    I think DIY is over rated and I prefer to hire it done but I have champagne tastes on my beer budget! My so tells me to look at it from the aspect of self fulfillment...Nah I am a lazy loser when it dome to that! Hope the sun comes back soon for you. Hope you have a great week. Vickie #36

    G'day Kath
    I usually don't get around for WOYWW till Friday as when Julia posts the link I am at work in the evening here in Oz. My day off isn't till Friday then but I'm home sick all this week so here I am just one day late(I couldn't type yesterday due to sore hands and why I am home!!). Hope you get some creating done in the cubby hole with Buddy...what a gorgeous dog. Oh I love the cogs and gears chippy too!!!
    hugs

    Hi Kath,

    Here in New Mexico we are getting a bit of rain too. Oh, but today is a different day; the sun is out and wind is still. A perfect spring day!

    I removed tiles from a cement floor so didn't have to worry about the drywall. I can just imagine how difficult and a mess that would make. At least your hard work allowed you some play time!

    I'm just now visiting desks!

    Happy WOYWW
