Morning gentle deskers. I hope I find you well and happy this beautiful Wednesday morning. Here we are going through week 5 of staying home and staying safe and I have to say, thanks to the amazing weather, I'm quite enjoying it now. As long as I can get in the garden and feel some sunshine I'm a happy bunny. I think a lot of this has to do with the awfully stressful 6 months I had previous to lockdown and to have the outside world removed for awhile is what I needed.

Anyway, here's my desk today.


I've been doing some scrapbooking, something I love to do and don't always find the time normally. This is my second page in a week of our trip to London last year for DD's 18th birthday.

I've still been taking photos during the week of things we have been doing to put in my lockdown journal.

We planted some lettuce, pea and carrot seeds. I even managed to persuade DD to leave her tablet for an afternoon to help.


I made a Simnel cake for Easter, For once I was organsied and had bought marzipan weeks ago.


And these Thalia daffodils came from my Mum's balcony and have been flowering for weeks. They are beautiful and I remember her every time I look at them.


Well, that's me this week. If you want to share your desk with a group of lovely people then pop over to see Julia at WOYWW. 

Happy Crafting and Stay Safe

Morning gentle deskers and Happy 1st of April. I hope I find you well, staying safe and getting used to this strange life we are leading now.

Here's my desk this morning.


It's now become my work desk in the morning as Hubby is at home too for part of the week and is using the dining table so I've retreated to my craft room. Although school is still open, there are only about 3 children in each day so the office has been closed and our office manager and I are both working from home. I'm looking after our website. The parents are sending photos of what the children are up to during their home learning so I am putting them onto the website everyday so that they can see each other. It's a lovely job to have. I'm enjoying it.

The days are going by well and I've only managed one afternoon of crafting so far. We've tried making some bread and have caught up on a few jobs and I was in the garden last week in that lovely weather.

I did manage to finish my mop up piece I was working on the other week though. Here he is.


My secret weakness are the AALL and Create stamps. I just love them and intend to really have a play with them during this lockdown.

Just to give you a smile today here's our cat, Tibby chasing bumblebees in the garden and also enjoying sitting in the back of my t-towel drawer in the kitchen. Why do they do this?



Well that's me today. Don't forget to share your desk with us over at WOYWW headquarters.

Take care and Happy Crafting!
