Yuck, housework!

The most boring thing in the world is - housework!  The only saving grace was the lousy weather,  housework is even worse if the sun is shining.   So flat is now all shiny and clean,  and I am sore and stiff.

So with all the housework out of the way I got on with making mum's birthday card,  I used the free kit I got from the craft shop,  picked up an A4 card pack,  and made use of some mirri board, gems and flowers.   I scalloped the edges of the mirri and patterned card,  then used the trimmings on the opposite side,  recoloured two white flowers and fixed them with some jewelled brads.  Not bad methinks!  Still got some of the decoupage left over, so I'll get two cards out of the kit. 

Also need to make plans for a chunky book page swap,  think it best to have a trial run.  Got some thick card, but it is textured so not sure if it will be suitable.  There is a craft fair coming up, so I am hoping to pick up some bargains there,  need to stock up on photo glue, and pin flair.    It's Mother's Day on Sunday,  so must get mum a present,  she is in reading mode at the moment. Have to take her to see GP tomorrow, they keep messing up her prescription for the antibiotics so I made an appointment with the GP, that we hopefully we can get it all sorted out and have the antibiotics included on her repeat script.   This all could have been done and dusted on Monday if the receptionist had let mum see the GP then,  instead she got told the GP would write a script, well he did but for the wrong thing and wrong amount. 

Well after our grey and rainy day we  have a lovely evening,  think there must be a nice sunset over the river.
