This is my first WOYWW since July so I'm looking forward to catching up and getting back into the swing of things. I'm joining in with Julia and the gang over at Stamping Ground.
I had a lovely visit with Mum and my family over in England. I have lots of pictures to share. Unfortunately I've caught a cold (got a sore throat a couple of days before I came back) and now I'm all stuffy so feeling yucky, trying to catch up and recover. At least the cold waited until I got back. I came back late Friday night.
I admit to not doing any crafting - lots of reading, but no crafting. I did pick up some things to 'play' with so looking forward to getting back into my craft room. I saw lots that has inspired me so maybe trying out some new things too.
These are just a few of the goodies I brought back with me. I did splurge on the one kit in the bottom picture. The other two are just charts I found at a charity shop. I also brought back lots of magazines, a few (yup) books and chocolates (yum). Seems you can accumulate a LOT in seven weeks!
Looks like you took back some interesting new stash! Glad you had a lovely holiday.Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #9 xxx

Maybe you're just allergic to your home country! Whenever I go back to my native Hungary, I always develop hay fever, LOL! Seven weeks is a long time - I don't think I could bear that much time away from my regular life. I would miss my stuff and my own home! Glad you're back - enjoy your new goodies. Thanks for visiting earlier! zsuzsa #28
ReplyDeleteReally hope you're feeling much better very soon so you can enjoy being creative. Hugs,

So sorry to hear you are sick…I blame it on the planes! I don't think they change filters or really filter the air well enough. Remember how horrible they were when they allowed people to smoke? ANyway!! Get better soon. Love all the stash you brought home with you. I always end up shopping and packing stuff back great stuff! Have a great week. Vickie aka Okienurse #11

Hi there, it's lovely to 'see' you back!! I'm so pleased that you had a good time, your mum must have really enjoyed having you all to herself for a while :-). Bad luck about getting a cold, it seems to happen to everyone who goes on a plane. Best just to eat your chocolate and use your new kit!!
