WOYWW 310

Hi ya, yes I know it's been a few weeks since I blogged and nearly 3 months since my What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.  It has been a tough few months as you know, February and March had a lot of illness, then April was difficult with my Mother in Law being in, out and back in hospital and then she had a bleed on the brain and died, I was so sure she would get better.  My Father in Law during that time lost all reality in life and was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and regrettably has had to be put into care.  It's awful to see, especially as he doesn't seem to realise that Pauline has died.  4 days after my last post, just a few days after she died I ended up really ill, the doctors wanted me to stay in hospital but I knew my family needed me home.  I didn't even realise I had an infection which ended up being a nasty one, I was so scared.  In the end a lot of bed rest and medication and now I so much better and finally sorting out the funeral which will be next Tuesday.  Today I went to pick an outfit for her, it's so weird, their home, car all still there, just as it was, when they were living their life in March, completely healthy (apart from Frank being forgetful).  It makes me realise that life can be so vulnerable and in reality doesn't have to prepare us for change or death, a scary and sobering thought.

I have been creating even though I did step back from blogging and after the funeral next week I am hoping to start getting back to some form of normality.  I can't believe that it's nearly the anniversary of WOYWW and I can't wait to join in.  If anybody else would like an ATC please let me know, I shall be making sure I make plenty.

I am just about to start on some envelope swaps that I shall be posting on

Friday.  Also on my desk is my Donna Downey Inspiration Wednesday journal I 

made, plus some Dylusion paints are out which I have been playing with.

On top of my plastic drawers (which seems to be used as an extra desk lol) are stamps

that I have been deciding on for the envelope swap, a tag I made just as

a relaxation crafty evening which I shall be blogging soon and another

Inspiration Wednesday journal I made, purely for playing around with and testing

out older videos that Donna Downey made.

My dumping/sewing desk has my sewing machine out ready which I used

for the journals the other day, on the left side is a frame that I started on

for a Paperartsy challenge, but everything in April happened. I shall be finishing

it off soon hopefully.  At the front of the desk is my Pan Pastel box and 2

ATC's that I started with the Dylusion paints, purely playing but when they

are done I shall put them on here for swapping.

At the back is some Ice Resin I am planning on playing with, my journal

that I am in the middle of doing a Tim Holtz tag for April (that I didn't get

finished) and on the right is a journal page finished for Life Book 2015

which I have finally started.  I am still on lesson 1 but on the second

journal page.  With such a lot going off this year I was late starting but

the best thing is, you do it at your own space so I don't feel rushed and 

just enjoying the process.  This page I am really pleased with and shall blog soon.

Right I shall be off to play with my Pan Pastels, I would like to say a huge thank you to my followers for being so understanding during this rough time.  I haven't had many posts up but I do have lots to blog so I shall be posting more soon.  I also have been so behind with my commenting but I have started so I shall get around to everyone :-).  Don't forget, leave me a comment if you want to swap a
WOYWW anniversary ATC.
Happy ART :-)
