Birdie Heart

Hi, hope you are all being good and staying safe 

in your own homes!!

I have had a text this morning from my friend, Lorraine,

saying that her Dad, our neighbour, passed away at 10pm 

last night. 

I am so shocked, as she has lost both her parents in 1 week.

I am sorry I haven't been visiting your blogs, but I am 

having a problem with my knees. I have had one replacement 

about 7 years ago and the other one is now very painful. 

I am finding it hard to sit at my craft desk, 

computer desk or even my laptop, being too heavy on my knee..

I can take pain but not like this. I am even finding it difficult 

to walk around the house. It's the dreaded Osteo-arthritis. 

Also my fault for spending 5 hours working in the garden!!

It's been in pain for 11 days now and getting boring!!

This a paper mache heart I have had for a few years. 

So as I had some pretty tissue in my stash, I had a play 

with it on the heart. 

I cut out some of the bigger flowers and the birds, stuck them 

onto scraps of card and then used Pinflair Glue gel to 3D them. 

This was done a few weeks ago.

Well I have to go now, as my knee feels like a red hot poker is

being twisted in my knee joint. An ice pack is called for now!! 

My neighbour came out of hospital and the following day, 

 he was taken back in. Now fighting for his life on a ventilator!

If that wasn't enough, one of my very old friends is very 

ill with cancer.

A lovely, very kind lady and will miss her very much. 

A friend for 29 years.

What a happy time we are having this year!! ....Not!!!

Big hugs,

Carol

Have a heart!

I am making stock for next Saturday 30th, which

is my 3rd Craft Fair this month!

It's in a school in Caister, for children that

have learning difficulties. 

It's a lovely school and the families support

the fund raising events very well. 

This is not just a craft fair this time.

 but a Well Being event too.

My heart hangers are one of my most popular items

and I enjoy making them.

I also made a Teal colour one too but the photo was

not very good, as it was rather dull today.

I am also busy making cards for the nursing/residential home,

that I supply them to, on a regular basis. 

I have made a couple of fairy items that I will post later. 

Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

I must do some housework too!!

What's the saying!!

Crafting forever, housework whenever!!

Thanks for taking time out of your weekend,

to pop in my blog and leave your lovely comments.

They are really enjoyed and appreciated.

Big hugs,

Carol
