Pride comes before a fall...

Hi folks...heavens above I've just noticed it's Wednesday already...half way through another week and no-one was more surprised than me when I realised that 2 weeks today I'll be heading to the airport for my flight to Birmingham and 5 days of Fiskars Fun. The workshop kits have arrived safely and I have to admit to breathing a big sigh of relief on that score...I sure would not have been a happy bunny if I'd had to repeat that particular kitting marathon.
And I haven't been resting on my laurels since the weekend either...a sneaky last minute Fiskars magazine commission popped into my Inbox...that's done and dusted along with the dreaded step-by-steps and I've also been playing catch up with my homework from Creative Chemistry 102...still a way to go to complete the course but hey in this crazy place we call the cubbyhole I was feeling rather chuffed with myself that the techniques tags from Day 2 of Layering Stencil fun were under my belt...
and I'd be moving on to Day 3...but pride comes before a fall...yep...knock knock who's there...a gatecrasher has joined the crafty party...a nasty cold/flu virus has turned up to spoil the fun and he's being a bit stubborn about leaving despite Mr Lemsip and Messrs Hot Drinks doing their best to show him the door. My friends will tell you that I DO NOT do "ILL"...I'm not the most patient of patients...don't mind the odd feeling grotty day but more than that and Mrs Seriously Grumpy is on the warpath.  So if I survive the next 24 hours which by the way I have every intention of doing...I'll be back tomorrow to share...fingers crossed...the tags from Day 2 in more detail...once they've all had a bit more titivation.
Hugs Kath xxx
