Home is....& Thank you all for your sweet comments!

They mean so much to me. Thanks for all the hugs too!!

This first week went by quite quickly, although with a bit difficulty with the kids. Dh is more strict with just one word is enough while i have to call them a few times, i am a bit of a softie i'm afraid.
The weather wasn't that great, with on and off rain and a bit of snow but i and a friend manage to go for long walks twice this week. I do need to do that more often as i want to loose these 4lbs i gained the last weeks when hubby was home. Blame it on the red wines and peanuts or chips!!


Here's my second update for the 'Home is where the heart is', i should have finished it last weekend but wasn't able to. Sorry Tinna, but i am catching up as we have to meet our third update this weekend.

I received a wonderful package from Julianne, a belated birthday gifts. I just LOVE everything. Thank you so much, julliane for making my day! now, i can't wait to use the linen fabric as i have a project in mind to use for it but i have to complete a couple of what i started earlier first.

May you all have a Happy Valentine's Day weekend!!!

Seus trabalhos estão lindos ,como sempre. As vezes quero fazer mais comentários, mas o tradutor não tem ajudado muito... fica meio confuso. Mesmo assim estarei sempre por aqui, dando uma olhadinha e apreciando seus trabalhos.Obrigada por responder aos meus e-mails! Beijos.
