How have you all been?
We're settling into the new place nicely. there's still a few jobs that need doing ...... hot tub needs connecting and we're STILL waiting for the internet!!! I mean, how difficult can this be!!! I'm not really sure what the problem is. Apparently, there's internet already at the property, we've had the necessary tech equipment delivered, all they need to do is flip a switch at their end, which I'm told could take 7 to 10 days, or longer!!!! It's driving me crazy ........ you don't realise how much you use the internet these days.
Anyway, enough of all that. We're out in the van for a couple of nights, having a change of scenery ....
We're down in Port Erin again, and guess what ...... the internet here is great so I thought I'd make the most of it!
I wanted to play along with this month's CAS Christmas Challenge ...... yes, the craft room is almost sorted and I managed to spend a little bit of time in there this week.
I then used a mix of watercolour paints and metallic ink to add just a touch of colour to the baubles
I added a sentiment ......
I think I read somewhere that it's only 19 weeks until Christmas ..... eeek! how did that happen!?
I need to start thinking about where the tree will go in the new house!
No more festive thoughts today though ....... it's a lovely here, and the locals are not too bad
We're off for a stroll in the sunshine now, and an early lunch I think.
Thanks for popping by ...... enjoy the rest of your day, and have a lovely weekend.
Cheerio until next time .......
