Unwell again and I have failed!!!!!!

       Oh dear, I think that I am falling apart!!!!!   I have a very sore pain under my right breast and the doctor thinks that it is either muscular strain (from carrying my work bag up two flights of stairs to my attic study) or else it is shingles!  I am hoping it is the former not the latter.  I should know within a day or two if it is shingles (when the blisters form) - something to look forward to - lol!



Also,  I am very sorry to report that I have fallen by the wayside and I have given up on the Ultimate Crazy January Challenge - so disappointed in myself.  However, I have to be realistic - it was becoming a source of stress rather than a source of pleasure.  Also, I have signed up for some swaps (and I do not want to be named and shamed!) and I have started some SALs with blogging friends, plus I work full-time and I have DH, DS1, DD, DS2 and DFIL to look after, plus I have blogs to read, swimming laps to do, BOOKS/KINDLE to read, DS1 to help move out of home (Oh, what a big thing that is) and I need to spend some quality time with my family, friends and kitty cats, plus, plus, plus...- something had to give!

Thank you to all of the wonderful blogging friends who gave me great advice on my photo storage problem.  A couple of you suggested that the easiest and quickest option was to buy more storage - which is what I have done - less than $5.00 (as the Aussie dollar is so strong at the moment) for 20 meg of storage - pretty good!

If you want to read all of the wonderful suggestions, please scroll down to the previous post.

Isn't it wonderful how we can rely on someone out there in blogland to give us good advice and support?


Now, I do have some UCJC or should I say CJC progress pics to show (after all I did make the 15 days, I just fell by the wayside on Day 16! lol!

This last one is a very small start as I started it on a work day and then went straight out to see Spicks and Specktacular - which was one of our Christmas presents from our children.  It was a great show and we had a wonderful time.

Well, off to see the Osteopath and then I plan to do some relaxing stitching this afternoon.

Stitchy hugs,
