We had some disturbing news on Monday that the firm my husband, son & son-in-law work for have been given 30 days notice that there are to be redundancies on the 5Th January when they return to work. The future looks a bit bleak but we are determined not to let it put a damper on Christmas, its about what you have got, not what you haven't got and we have each other.
Well on to a lighter note, my sewing ? At the moment i am making cone angels from the Sew Pretty Home style book one of my favorites, i will show you the completed ones when i am finished, just a sneak preview of them for now, it feels like my own little cottage industry here as i couldn't resist, just making more and more, a couple are for a friend she asked me to make her some, the rest will be presents, if i can bare to part with them. I thought i would introduce the youngest member of our family this is Maisy Grace the best present a daughter could give her mom she was born on my birthday and i was there to see her come into this world , we might not have much money but we are very rich in grand children seven in total.
I just wish I had a computer know how like the rest of you, at the moment i rely on the help of my lovely 14 year old daughter Lauren, i think she is quite the whizz on the computer, i know my way around eBay and web sites but this blogging and putting pictures on is a bit beyond me yet, but i am determined to learn about all be it slowly.

Oh, what lovely baby niece and daughter! You are very blessed!
Your cones are fabulous- can't wait to see them finished!

Greetings all the way from Tokyo! Beautiful tree! Later today, we'll put up the tree too & my 2 kids are so excited at the thought of it. I'm sorry to hear about the firm's sad decision & hope things are on the positive side for yr family members. Maisy Grace is a lovely, lovely name & as pretty as her Aunt Lauren! Computers give me headaches at times so thank goodness, I hv a computer-savvy husband for that! My kids are 8 & 11.
Just found you and am hoping that your menfolk's jobs will be safe. I don't know you but it's still frightening to think of what we could all be going through because of how we have been.
I was in Woolies today and just felt like crying - I almost went up to some of the staff to hug them because this was my past and I also thought it would be my future.
Gosh; that's a bit mis pour moi.
