So sorry.....


I am so sorry that it has been over 11 days since I posted!!!!  I am so far behind on all my news and events which I wish to post about.  However, my Dear Mum who has just turned 91 was taken to emergency last week with a chest infection so all of my time has been taken up with hospital visits, looking after my 93 year old father and, of course, work and looking after my own family plus my 86 year old DFIL who lives with us!  I have been stitching (it is amazing what stitching you can get done at 3am whilst waiting in Emergency) but have had not the time or energy to blog, I am so sorry.

My Mum  is on the improve, thank goodness and is looking forward to going home either today or tomorrow (we hope!).

Anyway, I wished to share with you the lovely gifts I received from Sarah in Stitches. Such a lovely giveaway.

It is always exciting to receive that parcel from overseas:


 .... and look at all the gooodies!










Thank you so much, Sarah, I feel very lucky to have received such great gifts from you.

... and just to finish - here is Furio who thinks he needs to go shopping with me!


Love to you all,

hugs,

Furio looks quite cozy in the bag. My cats love to jump in my shopping bags when I come home, too.
