What about this then?
I’m getting ready to leave! A weekend of scrapbooking with The Coven is in store. Really looking forward to it. AsI haven’t had time to sit at my desk for any creative purposes, I’ve rushed in and out and put things on the desk each time I’ve thought about something specific I want to take. So that involved hauling out the boxes and files that whatever I was thinking about are kept in, and so the pile has become quite serious! Mind you, it’s nowhere near complete…last year I managed to take my trolley too, and I’m considering doing the same again…depends how much room is taken up in the car by non essentials like clothes and food! Hey, apology again for last week…I said you could see lovely LLJ on my phone in the picture. You can’t. Turns out that the picture I see in the blog post is bigger than the one that is actually posted by the App! Strange. It was such a pleasure to roam around your desks last week, please post again!
Hope the car passes its MOT Julia. Have a great time with the coven at the weekend. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #1
ReplyDeleteUgh. Commuting is the worst. Good luck with the MOT and don’t let anything get in the way of your scrapping! Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteOh and I thought it was me being blind and not seeing LLJ! Phew.
Happy Woyww

I hope the car passes the MOT (and the traffic isn't too bad) and that the weekend away with the Coven is productive - looks like you intend it to be!
ReplyDeleteIt's really odd how the desk photo I see when i view from my phone, gives me your bigger pic, than the one on your blog via the PC ! i've just looked back to last week and can't see Jan!! (I've noticed this before) Anyhow, happy WOYWW Helen
Who needs to eat when you can craft? (Although I do hope you wear some clothes). What a treat to get away crafting, especially to be with people who know what they are doing. Enjoy!! Love n hugs Cindyxx #4
ReplyDeleteLucky you, wish I could come too. I'm sure you'll manage to get everything you need in the car somehow and probably more than you will use but we need to be prepared. Don't fancy that drive you're today though and don't miss having to do it at all. Enjoy your weekend. WOYWW hugs Angela x7x
ReplyDeleteHow lovely, a weekend away being creative. Hope it's a great one for you and the gang.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Goood morning Julia 💟 Here's to your car sailing through its MOT ⭐️ ready for the weekends adventure 🤸♀️ wishing yooou so much joy in time spent with friends and creating 💖 I laughed at your words non essentials 🤸♀️😆😃 love that... I'm left with a vision of you having to tie rope roond the car to hold everything in 🤭😊☺️ enjoy!! Much love and hugs winging your way Tracy #9 xxxx
ReplyDeleteI always maintain that you need to take everything or almost everything so you have plenty of choice 🤣 hope you manage to squeeze everything in the car and obviously hope the MOT is passed. Hugs Angela #10
ReplyDeleteExactly what I said to my hubby re the time of his dental appointment. I mean it is 35 minutes away on a good day and now he's retired WHY travel in the morning rush hour or indeed the afternoon school rush plus homecoming. I have even made my 6 monthly appointment to be in March/September regardless to any other interim appointments so I don't have to travel in the dark of the Winter months either. He'll get this retirement thing soon..... Have a super weekend scrapping, love that the non essential are clothes and food LOL. Hugs BJ#11
ReplyDeleteWell, being edited out by blogger has done my ego no good at all, lol! Probably just as well that the world was saved from an image of me!! Hope the car MOT goes cheaply and the Crop goes well.

ReplyDeleteToo cold for me to sit in this room for long, sorry

Have a wonderful, crafty weekend. What a treat! x x Jo
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely crafty weekend! Just adding my post now after aquarobics.
ReplyDeleteHi Julia, hope the MOT goes well and there's no unforeseen problems detected. Salisbury is lovely but not if it takes forever to get there. Happily, you have your retreat with the Coven to plan for while you wait. I'm off to catch up with a few more lovely WOYWW posts. Have a lovely day. Elizabeth x #15
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend Julia! How nice it is that groups and events like this can once more be enjoyed. That's quite a pile you have there already, get out the trolley! Have a wonderful time, Lindart #16
ReplyDeleteA retreat sounds so much fun, Miss Julia! Hope all goes well with the car. Look - I'm #18! Who says you can't be 18 again? LOL Creative Blessings & fun on your retreat! ~Kelly #18
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your crafty time away with lots of chatting and eating.
ReplyDeleteOoh fabulous coven weekend, enjoy

For the record the conservatory is looking/feeling fine with the tree gone. We keep the fairy lights round the roof and window all year so still pretty and I could get the my plants and spread them about a bit, had started drowning one by accident! oops.
ReplyDeleteCandlemas is a traditional Christian feast day 40 days after Christmas. Decorations used to be left up until this day many moons ago. I only started it the year we bought a non-drop tree which was still so sprightly on 12th night and I couldn't bear to take it down, it was left without decorations that year but since then I have just left the decs on them. I take the rest of the house decs down on 12th night though. We by the cheaper trees now and they just manage to last till 2nd February as long as they are NOT touched which is fine in the conservatory. Think that covers it, bet you wished you'd not asked now LOL BJ#11
