Morning all my wonderful friends and followers

Hope everyone is doing well 

I thought I would share some of the good things going on in my

Life at the moment.

As some of you may know I went to sewing and water color class

done by a local charity called Ascend, 

Since losing my BFF I have been a bit lost and one of my daughters 

said to join a crochet group which sounded fun so I did 

and have so much fun and laughter.

I new a few of the ladies as we all live in the area

one of them is the head of Ascend and she asked me if I fancy teaching 

crocheting for some of her ladies.

I said Yes, as Ascend have been good to me.

and its great to give back,

And as I am still waiting for good weather so we can order this god damn work top 

so hubby can sort the offices out. Which is driving me mad I need my crafting to de stress

LOL.
