WOYWW #228


Oh welcome back me to my first post in 6 weeks - a quick summary; is that we flew south to prepare our rental property for sale - painted out the interior and new floor coverings, concreted the driveway and then sister-in-law and hubby decided to buy so our planned hard worked stopped and they can use their younger bodies and make it their own. As this wasn't planned and Julie is to become the carer for my in-laws, they're all moving into the 4 bedroom and we now have the in-laws (our other investment) unit to sell....that's looking good so far too. Then we flew back to Townsville with my mum in toe and celebrated my 60th with family and friends. Also enjoyed a special day with our daughter and her Baby Shower, drove home with mum to Yeppoon and we veged for a week before she had to say goodbye. Now we wait for the baby, our first grandchild due in 10 days...we're all pretty excited as you can imagine. So this is my desk this morning - a bit of a mess with drawers spilling and DP pads on the floor...the pressure is on now to complete my Christmas cards- the window card in the middle I finished last night and posted it and there are a couple in progress to the left. Now if you're wondering about our Wednesday desk blogging pop over to Julias to read all about it. Happy Crafting and now I'm off to check out a few desks...Cheers

  8. A first grandchild is very exciting. You've been very busy indeed, it's nice to get back to the craft desk for a breather sometimes.

    Thanks for visiting the bears already today.

  10. What a busy few weeks Robyn! Congrats on both the birthday and the soon to be born new baby grandchild. And thanks for the messy desk, lol, puts mine in perspective!! The inserts are going in cards I want to send to a friend for a charity drive she's doing, so I have to get them ready and posted to her. My own won't get inserts until much nearer the big day!

    Hugs
