Sorry I've been away

I thought I would just pop in to say that I am still around.

Unfortunately I succumbed to the lurgy that has been doing the rounds, darling No 2 son shared his with me so that I wouldn't feel left out!.....suffice to say I have been feeling awful, have had to take time off work and have not been able to make, bake or blog.

I am now so behind with my christmas preparations that I am having to run about like a lunatic trying to keep up, I even ventured into that dreaded place.......town.....to buy a couple of presents and some cards as I know I won't have time to complete all the projects I have started, still looking on the bright side I am a little bit ahead for 2009!

A couple of good things have happened, the lovely Clare at Vintage Home sent me a lovely mouse mat as although I hadn't won her 100th post giveaway, I had managed a very close guess of what was in her box, which I will photograph and show when I have a bit more time. Secondly No 1 son passed his driving test yesterday, we had been worried as it had been rather frosty, but the lad did good!

I'll sign out now and get on with some knitting.
