ready, steady, go...!

Eek, meri, sounds hard! Ds1 not doing great - he is refusing to sit on the toilet at all at the moment. Fortunately he only wees three times a day - however that means three lots of clothes, two wet patches on the floor and one on the sofa!! I'm hoping he gets the hang of it very soon!

Oh Lord, I'm glad we didn't have a winky do, so no sprinklers in our household, although growd up men do a good job of missing occasionally !@

I need to step away from Amazon too ... thanks Meri for the temptation , love the new jewellery by the way, fab summery colours if I may say so.

I've blogged this morning but be warned the first part of the post is a bit deep but it does get cheerier, I promise.

Ohh I really want that retro crafts book, it looks divine!

Oh sorry Tilly, I'm not up to reading that, my dad's mum ended up in a concentration camp too.

Will read when I am in a better state of mind though and I may need to pick your family tree brain at some point.

Ranting - pick away when you are ready. Be ready though as you could end up unearthing some skeletons and some very sad stories, I did ...

I remember a friend of my dads saying he'd been researching his geneology for 15yrs. I also remember thinking, 'My god, how could it take that long'. Now I know why. It's addictive, honestly.

lol meri at your giveaway request

I must go and do some blog commenting, just snowed under at the moment. I've spent all afternoon doing paperwork and I've still got masses to do. Argh. However I am taking a break just now and have blogged my felted tea cosy that I have finally finished - I'm really pleased with it!

I've had a quote for some labels to be made; after a sharp intake of breath I decided they were actually quite reasonable, but need to wait until next month before I order them. They have my logo on and everything
