Under the weather!

Sorry I haven't been around as promised but I've been a bit under the weather again!!!! My thyroid has ben playing me up & then my DH & I were knocked off our feet over the week-end with a horrible tummy bug ~ it has done the rounds of our family & my daughter Laura is the latest victim so I have to collect my grandson & look after him to-day. I finally got my new cooker but have been unable to "try it out" because of how I felt. The oven in my old cooker had been on the blink for years & baking in it was an endurance test to say the least!!!!! I did so miss making my own biscuits , cakes, wheaten bread etc & so I had big plans to do some serious baking this week alas it will have to wait a while now. I've missed catching up on you all & thank-you for stopping by!!! I have not been working on my sewing etc but also hope to resolve that when I'm up to scratch again.
The weather here has been terrible (our garden is like a demolition site) & it doesn't look like it's going to change in the next few days ~ that is why I love winter so much at least I know what to expect & organise my days accordingly. I will have a quick look around your blogs & ttys. Take care Marie x

I'm back!!

I can't believe how long it has been since I blogged I though it was just over a week yikes time does fly!!!! I had a lovley time with my daughter & family in France & the weather was lovely although I am getting past the sunbathing stage I still enjoyed the sunshine. I can't believe it is my last trip to St Ismier before they move to Chicago but I will look forward to going there for a visit in the near future. Thank -you all for wishing me a good trip I really did have a good time but now it's back to reality. My husband is quite good about the house but his idea of cleaning & mine idea of cleaning !! Let's just say they are worlds apart lol!!!! I hope to catch up very soon & get back into my crafting once my little home is set to rights. Marie x
