This past week has certainly been a bumpy one. I lost my wonderful Aunt, on Monday - she was my mum's older sister, and I think was at a complete loss, after mum died. She actually had a stroke in October of last year, and never really recovered. Still, I know she's at peace now, and I can only imagine the trouble mum and her are causing. She was a real "gad-a -bout" ... never sitting still, and I think her and I had so much in common, more than really anyone else in our family. We both loved to bake & craft. In fact, she was the one that made our Wedding Cake ... she used to tell everyone in the home that :) Plus, she was such a huge Clarke Gable fan, and had a photo of him by her bed ... I'm happy thinking she's met her idol now.
We also had a few days away this past week - something we couldn't cancel. It was a SPA break that we won at an auction towards the end of last year. I'd never been to a SPA before, and wow was it amazing, I think I'm hooked - even Simon was taken by it.
I'm still continuing well with Project Life ... and actually up to date - I won't bore you with all the pages, but I will ever so often, if you don't mind.
Of course we don't mind :) You Project Life as much as you want and we'll come and admire it!
ReplyDeleteI'm very sorry to hear about your Aunt, Sandra, very sorry indeed.
so to hear you've lost someone special.
ReplyDeleteGreat pages and i look forward to admiring your pl too.
p.s. Spa's are a great way to relax. We have one close to us and I often go with the girls. I can't get DH there!!

Love your layouts Sandra. Yep we had a rule 'no dogs on the furniture' but now one sofa is where she sleeps each night!
ReplyDeleteGreat Dog LO's. Dogs do kind of rule the roost and get away with it don't they. I would love to see your PL as I am making a serious attempt this year and need all the encouragement I can get!

ReplyDeleteOur dogs creep on the sofa whenever they can!!
So glad you enjoyed your Spa - if I'm a good girl Mr P sends me away each year to Champneys (I think it is more about him getting peace and quiet LOL!!) - I always say they should give those places out on prescription - does me far more good than any pills.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your aunt (((hugs)))
