Getting back on track ....

It would be an understatement to say that things have been a little hectic of late .... but finally it feels like things are starting to "pan out" a little.

Mark had his plaster off last week (after 6 weeks) and is now flat out with physiotherapy, hydrotherapy and lots of daily excercises etc. etc. to get him "up & going" again. He is walking/hobbling around ok and as of today is only using 1 crutch. Just having him somewhat mobile is great for all of us!

Dad is improving allbeit very slowly and any improvement is a real blessing. Hoping the next week or two will make a big difference and a little bit of normality return for him and mum.

Mother's Day was pretty low key .... i had a lovely morning out & lunch with Blake & Mark then we caught up with my Mum later in the night with a cake for supper ..... along with her Birthday celebrations, we'll put things on hold until Dad is well and all celebrate together.

Last weekend was a welcomed break from the chaos and a wonderful time with a great bunch of ladies at the Scrabook'n'Bits retreat ..... 3 whole days .... bliss!



I did actually get a few LO's done and hosted 2 workshops ... i haven't taken photos yet but will share soon.

Well ... it's beginning to feel a lot like Winter .... love the cold weather!

Have a great week everyone.

Keep smiling .....
