WOYWW - Life Getting In The Way !!





How come "real life" seems to crowd in all at once & crafting & blogging just falls by the wayside ! ! A combination of a fortnight of unseasonally stunning sunny weather - meaning that I have wanted to spend every moment possible working in the garden ! Rich's birthday last weekend meant a fun trip to our favourite fish restaurant The Shed in Porthgain down in Pembrokeshire - and then this weekend we had a trip to North Wales for a great couple of days catching up with my in-laws - plus a 4 hour drive each way through the breathtaking scenery in gorgeous Spring sunshine - good to be alive kind of days !!

So here we are with a desk with not much action !

I have my Configurations printers tray - with hardly anything done on it .. just plans for a nature themed project !

On the left is today's prompt from Shimelle on the Beyond Blogging for Scrapbookers course - I am just about managing to read the prompts each day but not having much luck in doing the projects yet - hoping to have a major weekend catch up session !

On the left is my confirmation of my place on next month's Artsy Crafty Weekend - so something to look forward to in all this busy madness at work !!

Hoping to get some crafting done this coming weekend & to have a bit more to report next week ! How do YOU juggle making time for crafting with "real life" ?? Any tips to share ??

  6. I know what you mean but we rarely get such lovely weather that we have to grasp it when we can. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your printers tray - I loved my configuration box I did with Tim Holtz - so much fun - am sure you will love every step of it along the way. Thanks for sharing. #10
