How long since I've posted!!!

Blimey I really can't believe how long it is since I have posted or sat down to make a card. Still no card making going on, but I'm hoping that I'll be back in the swing of things shortly. I thought I would let you all know why I have been so absent lately and not had any mojo for crafting (even thought of selling my stash on ebay but realised I was being a bit drastic).

Well I'm 3 months pregnant!!!! We're really excited and although I have been really lucky and had no morning sickness, I have been exhausted after a days work that I'm in bed by 9! My weekend afternoons when I used to craft have been replaced with an afternoon nap. Everyone tells me the next 3 months you get your energy back, so hopefully I can get back to normal a bit.

I've just been having a quick look round all my favourite blogs and I can't believe what I have been missing out on. I am loving the Forever Friend stamps and papers and the new Elzybell stamps. Not sure when I will be treating myself to new crafting goodies though, as the company I work for had just had a hostile takeover and I'm someone who automatically thinks the worse will happen!

Off now for a look round some more blogs!

Tara, I can't believe I missed this posting!! Congratulations to you and your hubby. I did wonder if that's why you hadn't been around! Enjoy your pregnancy and remember, the tiredness will ease and you will soon start to bloom. Just make the most of being able to sleep as that will disappear when the little one arrives hee hee!!
