WOYWW

 I'm back!

In case you were missing me... life just takes over sometimes doesn't it.

We had a wonderful week in Scotland and unfortunately I came home with Covid, testing positive on the day I got back. So - even though I didn't feel too poorly with it, it seems to have taken my "bounce" away! I have struggled to find the energy needed to do all that I love doing.

This week I am feeling a bit better but seem shattered by the end of the day - I hope it goes away sometime soon.


I have managed some picture mounting and brooch finishing off for Tilly Tea Dance.

I love doing these tasks for Max but must admit it took a lot longer than usual!

Her bestie asked if I would make bunting for her little girl's party table so I have enjoyed a bit of fabric craft this week - well it took me all morning really.




So that's about it.

I did manage to climb "Arthur's Seat" on our last day in Edinburgh. The views were amazing.




I hope you are all well and have enjoyed our wonderful (if a bit hot) summer weather.

    I’m so glad you’re eventually bouncing back...it takes longer than you think. Lovely view from the top of the hill.

    I was so happy to see your name on the list this morning! It does seem to take an enormous amount of time to shift the weariness of Covid, so be good and listen to your body! Great pics of Arthurs Seat, we’re off up to Edinburgh for our special anniversary trip away, can’t wait, there’s a long list of things we want to do!

    Oh what fun going to Scotland, on my list Glad you were good to go. Covid is everywhere, summer sinus/allergy etc. We had it in June, not tested (results are up and down with that) but we stayed home, he was worse than me with high fever. LOTS of Sleep/water Best Wishes on soon to normal.

    Welcome back from the trip ... I suppose it has been a great vacation? I would love to visit Scotland too. But it has to wait til all this covid thingy is over I guess. Sad to hear you catched it. What you can do is rest in any moment you have to do it. I have had a bit of it and it took me a month to be myself again.

    You make such a great art with your hands.

    Thank you for sharing

    Have a great week !!
    Hugs

    Oh I’m very sorry that you’ve succumbed, and deeply grateful that you aren’t more poorly. It seems to make everyone very tired, you just have to go with the flow, huh. Frustrating for you busy gals! Glad though, that you got a lovely holiday first, looks as if you had great weather too, that view from Arthur’s Seat is quite amazing isn’t it!

    Sorry to hear you caught Covid at least you had a good holiday. We're still wearing masks whenever we go shopping or know there will be lots of people about and when I do mum's cleaning. Hope you feel more like yourself soon. Have a very happy and creative woyww, Angela x9x

    It’s good you got the chance to enjoy Scotland before you came down with the lurgy. Hope you feel better soon. Sorry I’m late - been writing a big report on what the council and developer should have done
    Take care

    Hope you get over your bout of covid quickly and are able to do all the things you enjoy.
    We went to Scotland last year and stayed at Falkirk. We did spend a day in Edinburgh as well. Great holiday :)
