HELLO WEEK

This week I'm saying:

HELLO to Craig coming home for a few days 

HELLO to bittersweet memories of Stuart, which are always more prevalent this week in June




HELLO to dad still being at home after four weeks..the longest spell since September last year!

HELLO to (hopefully) finishing  cutting back the overhanging branches of the trees on the land behind us...the branches are causing problems with our fence, so I've been out lopping every night for the last week!

HELLO to slightly cooler temperatures (bliss!) forecast for the next few days

Whatever you're doing this week, remember to treasure each moment

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx

  15. I"m glad Craig will be with you soon. Thanks for your note about thinking about us. Paul's illness really taught us to treasure each moment. And, yes, it was just about a year ago that he was diagnosed. Sending hugs to you and thinking good thoughts about your beautiful son.

  16. Thinking of you and sending a little love across the miles x

    I love reading books on my tablet - take it everywhere with me and read at any spare moment. I have even stopped subscribing to the paper version of Creating Keepsakes and download the digital version - loads of magazines to take with me where ever I go and all on one little 7inch tablet and not in a heavy bag. For me it was the way to go as I read far more now.
