It's Another One.

Hi everyone, hope you are all well.
  I have been waving my Daughter off to work in the dark for what seems like ages and suddenly I realised it's light, YEAH,  and the days are definitely longer.
Have to start the diet tomorrow,( hee hee)  for summer!!

Well my card should have posted this morning but didn't, just can't seem to work out this shcedule thingy, don't know if it's the time that's wrong or what but this is the first opportunity I've had today to come onto my blog. I didn't realise how much time it would take to cancel electricity and gas and give final readings and cancel direct debits and phone clients etc etc etc... OMG sick of the phone being stuck to my ear lol.

Anyway it's a new Challenge over at Songbird and the theme for the next two weeks is
Mama, I love you, (Mother's Day)
Boy has this one been hard. I haven't made a mother's day card since my mum died and I still miss her sooo much. So I shed a few tears to myself! Gonna put it up for her anyway.

    I haven't made a Mother's Day card since my MIL passed away a couple of years ago and I found it very hard to make them after my Mum passed away a couple of years before that.
    But this is gorgeous and I'm certain your Mum would have loved it.

    what a gorgeous card! such pretty embellishments and beautifully arranged - your Mum would be very proud of you.
    thank you so much for your kind words of support - I am slowly coming to terms with the situation and trying to keep busy, some days though it is hard.

    You might be out of practice but you've still got the knack of beautiful Mother's Day cards. I think your mum will love this watching down over you.zx
