Feeling Sick

Blah, I have the flu and I feel really low.One thing I have learned to do is to light a really good fire...Its freezing in Ireland and waiting the whole afternoon for my hubby to come home is really long.......does anyone else feel that way?
Its the highlight of my day when he walks through the door.
I guess thats a good sign?
These are some of my daughter's lovely dolls,the one in the middle was given to her by my friend Lisa, all the way from the U.K. She is gorgeous, very stylish!

January's nearly Over

January is definitely a tough month to get through.At the moment my daughter is really sick and I feel the flu coming on as well.
Why does this feel like deja-vu? Every year seems to be the same story.
Anyway, we will get better...and life will go back to normal.
I was very excited last night to come across a dress-making course (correspondence) through an Irish college, it looks really good.
They send you the full kit you need including fabric, thread, patterns and you have 6 to 9 months to complete the course, and by the end you would have made a skirt and I think a blouse...now I am so keen to find my machine,probably going to look in Argos, and as soon as I have it I will hopefully sign up for the course.It will be a dream come true, as I have always wanted to know how to sew and I want to start making my own things.
The various crafty web-sites are so inspiring,and i can see them being a great help through my learning process!
