Yes, as usual, I am well behind the times, and running late! lol
I do have my excuses though…
With Chris’s parents with us over Christmas, Rianna’s Birthday, trying to fit in visits to/from all the relations and the two little ones to look after it has been EXTREMELY BUSY here is usual!
(I am sure you all find the same!).
School is back now though – mixed blessings – I am enjoying some relief from Rianna’s relentless talking/questions/general noisy excited-ness (all good things for her to possess I know, I would rather she was interested and playful that a vegetable in front of a tv all day long! But noise all day long and constant “I’m bored!”can take it’s toll on a somewhat tired and strung out mummy as any of you with littlies of you;re own will know!), but not so much enjoying the mad rush in the mornings (despite getting up at stupid o’clock most days, we are still not out the house when I would like to be!).
It is somewhat of a relief to be back to the routine of daily life!
I have a HUGE list (as always) of projects I want to make this year.
I am going to mainly be concentrating on Folksy rather than events, at least until the autumn, mainly because I just can’t face any more working days with a baby in tow, it’s too hard!
I also have some projects for the home I want to get done – the big one being a rag rug.
We also want to build the kid’s a play area in the garden, which is going to be hard work once the weather improves, but worth it to see them playing :-)
Plus there’s TONS of work to do at the allotment, and poor Chris has largely been left to his own devices there since Evie was born.
All in all there is LOADS to look forwards to this year, and lots to keep us busy
My main resolution for the year?
(Apart from the usual “lose 2 stone” that never happens!)
To use up all the fab materials I have with my projects rather than spending what little pennies I have on loads more!
Hmmm… what are the chances of that happening?!

Happy New Year Rose! Lovely photos. You are certainly an inspiration with all that you seem to fit in to your time. I will be with you on that resolution by using up all materials I have in stock though I have slipped on that already with some bargains lol!

I know exactly how you feel about getting things back to normal (!) after the chaos of school holidays. Your daughters are beautiful and it was great to see some family pics too. I too should make an effort to use the yarn that I have in the house but I am magnetically drawn to anywhere that sells yarn, sure I can smell a yarn stockist a mile off, if you try to use stash then so will I !
