It's Still February!!

I've been so bold in being away so long! My other half is just finished his thesis so we are both free again!!!!! To do other stuff like ironing, cleaning!!!

So I am continuing with my large knitting order and am finished a hooded cardigan and a jumper with H on it - fun to knit will post pics soon. Am working on a hat now and then another two jumpers and a hat and I'm done.

I think this year I am going to focus on one or two specific gift sets and have a stock of them for my Etsy shop - I think I am fumbling out in the wilderness now with too many things going on!!!!

So here is to focussing in on what you are good at!!!!!

Back soon (I promise!!)

Happy February

Good morning all! It's the 1st of February and happy to be out of January I must say! To celebrate I am offering 10% off all month to likers of my Facebook Page - you will be able to treat yourself to some lovely cosy things! Such as my Grace Infinity Scarf!

Oh go on then the code is FEB12FB!! Enjoy Caroline X

Here I am .....

....and it's Tuesday already! Had a lovely weekend at home with the folks and my little lady and we are settling back into normality at home now. She has just given up her daytime nap and to be honest I think I am not dealing with it as well as she is!!! Didn't realise how much stuff I was fitting into that time!! In other news I am the new blog co-ordinator for the Etsy Ireland Blog!!! I am excited about it I have been out of the workforce for a year or two now and while I am not missing the day job as such I am happy with my new 'title' now I just have to be good at it!!!!! The end!

Rain, rain go away!

Hi here - it's a horrible day - really yuck. We are off to our mother & toddler group this morning and hopefully there will be a few kiddies there for the little lady to play with! Went spinning last night and even though I was very tired going in, and it felt really really hard, I still felt great coming out of it!!! Finished off a cream & brown neckwarmer yesterday and hope to get it up on Etsy later - here is a sneak preview -

I will really have to get into the photos and change all the ones in my shop and make them more consistent and brighter! Any advice would be gratefully accepted!

Happy Monday

Just back from a long walk and feeling very refreshed!!!! I am quite amazed at how well exercise makes you feel, I must admit I am a recent convert and am enjoying all the different things I am doing. I am happier during the day and sleeping better at night. The not eating lots of crap is helping too!!! We had a lovely weekend, didn't do anything really just relaxed which was really nice. I finished off the jumper and hat set I am knitting for a friend so hopefully she likes it! Going to start a neckwarmer today and should have that done later on - might even get it up on Etsy! Little lady is gone for her nap now so I am off for a cuppa and to start on that neckwarmer!

MeetMums.ie - great website

Hi All Check out www.meetmums.ie - one of my favourite links - it is going to be a great place for information about all things kids and parents related. Great sections on playgroups (which has always been hard to find) and parent & toddler groups. I have our local one in Westport listed now! Give some support to Beatriz and check it out!

Monday

Went walking this morning with a friend and although it was pretty cold, feel so much better after it!! Nice to get out of the house - the little lady eventually got tired of staying in the buggy and wanted to walk herself. Have my spinning class tonight and am looking forward to the challenge!!! Am knitting up a Debbie Bliss Jumper for a friend and it is starting to look lovely - lots of fiddly bits on it but it will be worth it in the end! Hoping and aiming to have it finished, I would like to say tomorrow but most likely Wed or Thurs!!! Signing off
