Well its been a strange week, having only worked 3 and a half days... I'm so grateful for the weekend break I had last week, its made me more able to deal with things as they come along. I can just take a deep breath & take it on the chin. So thankyou Mum & Dad for having the girls for the weekend, I love you both lots.
I'm grateful for the inspiration given at the retreat last weekend from the talented DT at Sarah's Cards, its kick-started my mojo & I just can't stop scrapping at the moment & what's more, I'm loving what I'm creating.
I'm grateful for the opportunity to make new friends, I met some of the loveliest and kindest people last weekend, not to mention some of the funniest. Only a true scrapbooker would grab their camera to take a photo of a bowl of tartare sauce....
Making pancakes with the children was a highlight ; they even managed to toss them (with a little help)... they were delicious too!
Its wonderful that it finally feels like Spring is on its way - Mads & Tigs wore their summer dresses to school today (albeit with vests underneath!) and were happy to do so :)
Finally I'm just grateful for everything that I have, life isn't always easy but having had a weekend away from the girls & the house last week, when I came back, I really appreciated all that I have.... I feel very, very blessed.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone

Hi Claire, good to have you back Rocking today! How wonderful to get away from a retreat - we all need a break sometimes, to recharge our batteries and return ready for life again. Sounds like you had a great time. Good old Mum and Dad!
ReplyDeletePancakes, yum. Summer dresses, cute. The battle of the tartare sauce, funny!
Have a great weekend,
Jo
So glad to hear you are in a happy place right now Claire :) xxx
