The desk:
Believe it or not I am trying to diecut some Christmas trees!
I attended the Papercraft Show on Saturday and now, one from there + one from last year's show + one from the works, I possess three tree dies!!!
These are perfect for one of my swaps so I have started ..... notice the word 'started'.
Another purchase (not from the show!) on Saturday was some new boots.
I can't even remember when I bought my present boots, I think I may have been in paid employment!!!
My new ones are beautiful!
They are not to everyone's taste but something I have always wanted to own since Doc Martin's made an appearance in England.
Thanks to DDN, Birthday and Christmas, I am now the proud possessor of these! They are soooooo comfortable.
Love them to bits.

I have an update on the teddies, six teddies completed and three in the process of being dressed.
All this has been going on against a background of Doctor's, Clinic and Hospital. I think that, between us, PJ and I are keeping the NHS in business.
The upshot is that PJ
may have Diabetes (Type 2), no-one will confirm this but we are hopeful this will change tomorrow when we are back at the Hospital.
I was bluelighted into Hospital on Sunday with suspected heart trouble. I have been attending OutPatients, various clinics, trying to sort out exactly what is going on. I understand that the consensus of opinion is that the main problem is my heart ..... I guess it's just too big and too full of love! lol
I have to laugh about this, it's my nature, I just try to carry on, putting my trust in Jesus (cos He's the only one who really knows what's going on). I am having a Heart Monitor fitted on 6th December but until then I am trying to be gentle with the old thing..... aerobic exercise has been crossed of my list!
In lieu of all this, my Blog, my swaps and craft work is very intermittent.... not intentional. I have hopes that Father Christmas will be kind and send me an ipad (or similar) so that I can keep up to date better. Apparently he is looking into it!!!
Food for thought:
How do you make holy water? Boil the hell out of it!!
What do you call a dinosaur with an extensive vocabulary? A thesaurus.
