no I'm not cross at you

Really I'm not .

I was just going to pop a post up to explain my absence

but a post without a photo is even more dull than my

my blog at the moment .

So because I was going to tell you I wasn't cross I thought

I'd show you some of my very old cross stitches .

I haven't done any for so long and I really use to enjoy doing them .

I don't think my eyes or my patience could manage it anymore .

Are there things that you were very enthusiastic about but aren't any more ?

Anyway now you know I'm still around .

My daughter who has been home sick for two weeks goes

back to school tomorrow and I'm finalising a few things here .

As always family need to come first .

I'd love to have some more recent crafty stuff to show you

but it's either secret or non - existent .

Thanks for sticking around .

I appreciate it .
