My SSCS 2008.

Firstly... A Huge Apology to my SSCS partner  Margaret  for not having posted earlier but to be totally truthful coping with my everyday has been somewhat of a challenge for me of late... but I'm finally here to make amends Margaret and I can only hope there is still lots of wonderful Christmas Spirit to spare within your heart...................



When Margaret's parcel arrived in the mail from Spain there was one very excited girl believe me & then I had to wait... How Many Sleeps ??? Tantalising to say the very least as I strived to remain a good girl & wait for Santa !~!~! LOL....... But @ last....................... Xmas Day arrived & I excitedly scooped up my SSCS parcel from under the Xmas tree & raced off to join my DDH in opening our Chrissie Presents on the bed of course... where else ??? Upon opening my SSCS Pressie my DDH & I found it absolutely unbelievable that a total stranger would wish to put in so much time & effort for someone unknown to them... TRULY AMAZING to us & totally gave our Christmas morning an extra special sparkle !!! Thank You Sooooo much Margaret for your SSCS generosity ...



Here is what I discovered within my lovely Pressie all the way from Spain... the most gorgeous Wallhanging with the sweetest stitches which immediately found a prestigous hanging position for all to see when visiting and I'm still unable to bring myself to store it away with all the other Chrissie Decorations just yet !!! Need to find just the right hanger for my New Treasure is the latest excuse Lol...




Then also the cutest little notions holder & rotary cutter case not to mention the Choccies & Chooky tissues way cute but no... not Blue... lol






All of this made possible by one Very Special Christmas Elf ... Chookyblue !!! We **All** in Blogland have been blessed with a very fine friend indeed ~~~ Thank You So much for creating such a wealth of fun & friendship within Blogland Chookyblue you truly are a special lady...


Take Care Helz .

This Will Never Do...


OK... Now where to start for I have been away from Blogland for such a while now... lets head back to November when my DDH & I found out we were in for a bit of a fight during the next few months ... they say when Cancer enters your life to have No Expectations & No Plans this took a little adjusting to ! But Thank Heavens I married a fighter & following 2 rounds of Chemo *** No Walk in the Park this one... the tumour is now 1/10 the original size & all is on track for Surgery in late Feb... pretty darn good to see that glimpse of light @ the end of this tunnel... At least we are breathing again !!! Please accept my apologies for my absence it's just that this sorta life experience does not come with an Instruction Manual... Darn It All. Right now DDH is home from hospital which feels awfully good 'cause we were starting to settle in there right down to sharing Christmas Lunch/Dinner on Xmas Day ----- Not Planned ! But you get that..................... Hey? What we both need now though is some normalacy in our lives... We both crave it !!! Hence DDH working on the Fergie Tractor this afternoon doing maintenance & I tackling the way too tall weed population with my trusty Brushcutter then evening rounds with the resident equine population...Of Course LOl. Life is Back on Track & Feels Good..................................
