Another week were I am running behind with this post! I had a busy week but again a lot of it won’t be blogged as it isn’t something I want recorded online

Monday A day in work and Buster was in for 2 hours in Nursery, all went well and he seems to be enjoying himself

Tuesday work again and more crafting and testing of my monkeys for CE compliance

Wednesday K at swimming lessons and MrR brought them to the park first so two exhausted children tonight

Thursday we had a sleep over in my mums and Buster went into mum in the night so I got a whole bed to myself!

Friday went to mums after work and MrR did some work on removing a radiator etc in order for mum to get work done the next day. I pulled out of the job that would have meant relocating as it was not working for us.

Saturday MrR brought K to Irish Dancing lessons and then brought Buster to his Football lessons.  I stayed home and sewed! Then had a visit from A and we had a catch up although with K and MrR about we kept being interrupted  K and Buster slept over in mums and MrR and I went out to the cinema to see Taken2 and then out to Dominos for pizza!

Sunday I got a sleep in and then got up and did more crafting before we went round in the afternoon and collected my two from mums and got some Sunday dinner!

Handcrafted

I have spent the last few weeks trying to set up some stock for a new venture that I hope to do in the evenings/spare time!!

I have rediscovered my love of sewing – I did it for A-level but haven’t really done much in the last few years.  At the minute I have been concentrating on making sock monkeys and cloth dolls using patterns bought from dolls and daydreams.

I am loving making the dolls and am just about stopping myself from buying numerous patterns from the website until I figure what I can do with all the dolls I make.

I am awaiting details from my local council about trading requirements etc to see if I could sell the dolls and monkeys and will have to slow down in my production in case they say no- otherwise they will be filling up every room!
