Good afternoon Maria,Thank you for your message. We have just got home.We had a lovely time at Lisa's,but unfortunately Terry got a sickness bug last night & was still bad this morning. He had to drive home as I dont, we had to stop off at services a couple of times, so I'm glad to be home safe.
DeleteWe are the same & don't buy adult present's ether as got rather expensive so just get grandchildren present's now. But Terry surprised me with a Joanna Sheen voucher.
I have been selling some of my old Dies & die cuts on EBay & when I have enough I buy a Sue die like the Lyra die I got.
It's got really cold today & there were
Gritting lorry's on the motor way so that's not a good sign is it.
Wishing you & your family a very Happy & healthy new year love & Hugs Lynda xx
Lynda, thank you for your lovely comment, I loved making their card and wallet. Yes they loved it and as they said " they won't get 2 of that one". They are both so happy and Andrew has only got a week back down in Darlington to do. He has got a transfer up here, but I think he is taking a couple of weeks off to get bits done in the cottage. They need to create storage space, thankfully he is a joiner to trade which helps. Just read your reply to Maria. That's not good about Terry, I hope he will be better soon, did you have far to travel? You will enjoy spending your voucher, we didn't give gifts to one another this year as we are going to Canada around June so we felt the money was better being put towards that. Take care if are out if the gritters are out, we have had snow just a few miles from here. Hazel xx
ReplyDeleteHi Hazel,that will be nice that Andrew will be moving nearer to your daughter.
DeleteWe wasn't supposed to get presents but he just surprised me with the voucher.we had a nice Christmas Day,but I don't know what made Terry Ill yesterday we all had the same food & everyone else was fine,but it was a horrible journey home we live about 2 hours away but was the longest trp home.He went to bed when we got home so hope he feels better in the morning. Wishing you & your family a very Happy new year Hugs Lynda xx
Hi Lynda,
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to drop in and wish you Happy Christmas ! Trouble is - I'm a bit late!
I hope your husband is feeling better today.
My son and his wife took 3 1/2 hours to travel from near Southport to Warwick. Terrible jams on M6. They travelled up in just over 2 hours! My brother and family got stuck in the snow and spent a night in a Premier Inn in South Yorkshire! At least we've been at home!
Love the card you've made with the Lyra die. I love it and even used it in some Christmas cards. I got another of Sue's dies from a friend who is a crafter. Lovely!
Your little grandson Harry is adorable!
Love Myra xx
Hi Myra,thank you for your lovely comments on my card & Harry yes he is gorgeous its so lovely having a new baby although I love my other two grandsons & extra two step Granddaughter's.
DeleteMy son was in Egypt for Christmas he said Harry was so good the whole time,he is such a happy baby,but there last night they didn't realises the patio was open a little & in the night he started crying then they put light on he had been bitten on his little face & head,also Darren & Sam had bites all over them too.They got home at 4 am this morning.
Hubby still felt bad this morning so he phoned the 111no & they sent a paramedic out,after told him the symptoms & how he felt he took temperature & blood pressure which was a bit low.So advised him to go to casualty to have bloods done as he was a little concerned but he said there very busy prob have 8 hour wait so he said no point me going too,the paramedic took him in his car. He phoned me after a couple hours said they were keeping him in over night & have a camera down in the morning.So a bit worrying & just hoping all ok
Sorry that was a bit long winded Myra
Wishing you & your family a very happy new year Love Lynda xx
Good evening Lynda, popped over from my Sisiter Hazels Blog.
ReplyDeleteA stunning card, love the colours and your beautiful design.
That is one real cute little grandson you have.
Have a wonderful New Year hope it brings all you wish for.
Hope your hubby is feeling better.
Patricia x
Hello Patricia,very nice of you to pop over,thank you for lovely comment. Yes Harry is a very happy baby always smiling. Hubbie not too good today so phoned the 111NHS no they sent paramedic out he advised that he took him to casualty to have bloods done,I wanted to go with him but he said not to,he phoned they want to keep him overnight to have camera down throat
ReplyDeleteSo keeping fingers crossed.
Happy New Year to you & your family
Hugs Lynda xx
Lynda that's not good about your husband, he is in the best place and he will get the camera done, where as if he came ho e they would be sending out an appointment when they had a space. Just as well you came back home and didn't stay away. Take care, Hazel xx
ReplyDeleteHi Hazel thank you very kind of you. The hospital discharged Terry this morning & yes they are sending him an appointment for the camera as no spaces today. They said he had a very bad viral infection,kept pumping antibiotics into himThen his leg became very inflamed,he has bad legs when he fell in a Pitt of costic at work 8 years ago so the skin is very thin from skin grafts,so doctor said he may have had a bad reaction to the antibiotics,they put a line around it, said if it gets bigger past the line to go back Asap. He has got a 2month Course of penicillin so hopefully things will be fine.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year Hazel to you & your family. Thank you for caring.
Hugs Lynda xx
Hi Lynda,
ReplyDeleteChecked back to see if any news of your husband. You have had a worrying time! So sorry about that. Hope the antibiotics help , though they always seem to have the dd side effect or two. You are both in my thoughts and prayers! Take care.
Sorry too the children were bitten in Egypt - it is so easy for these things to happen. Poor little chap!
This morning my husband rushed into the kitchen to tell me water coming through ceiling above lounge window! We turned water off and rang British Gas - we have a contract - engineer came inside an hour! infill pipe of toilet in main bathroom needed a new washer! Whew - could have been worse! Now we need to wait for the ceiling to dry out. Hey ho! However it is nothing compared to illness so very thankful.
Wishing you and your family all the best for 2014 and thanks for your friendship.
Love Myra xx
Hi Myra thank you for your concern,it very nice of you. The hospital was supposed to ring today for appointment for the camera,but they didn't so going to ring them tomorrow & chase them up.
DeleteHis leg looks very red & angry & painful
When he walks,I will keep a close eye on it.
Harry is ok they took him to the doctor about the bites when they got home,he said that with baby's they don't actually get bitten because they don't have the bad food in there body for them to eat like adults do.
So pleased your leak was not too serious Myra just hope your ceiling dry's out quickly.
It's me who should thank you for your friendship,it like I'v known you for a long time it's lovely.
Wishing you & your family a Happy Healthy New Year in 2015
Love Lynda xx
Oh dear Lynda!
ReplyDeleteI obviously meant all the best for 2015! It's been a stressful day! Love Myra xx

Oh dear Lynda I really hope all goes well for Terry , must have been awfully scary the drive home so pleased that went fine.Hope his infection clear up soon. You both take care now and hopefully you can celebrate in the New Year together tomorrow. Very quiet affair here in the Alder's house with some steak, a few drinks and tv until midnight, must just see the fireworks first before bed....
ReplyDeleteWarm hugs Maria x
Thank you Maria,They discharged Hubby yesterday gave him lots of antibiotics injections,but his leg is so red & angry they said might have had a bad reaction to the antibiotics as his skin is so thin,after his accident getting badly burnt with caustic at work filling chemicals about 8 years ago,hope the penicillin tablets kick in soon.they were supposed to ring today with appointment for the camera but never,
ReplyDeleteIt will also be very quiet at our house too just the two of us. Just hoping no Fireworks to freak ANNIE out,but going by November 5th we will get lots.
Wishing you & your family a very Happy 2015 New Year love Lynda xx
Hi Lynda. Just popped by this New Years Eve to thank you for your inspiration over the past few weeks. If it wasnt for Sue's blog I would never have found your's and Im so pleased I did.
ReplyDeleteI cant wait to see what you come up with in 2015 its so lovely to pop into a few of my fav blogs (your's Hazels, Patricia's and Sandra's) to see how you all use Sue's dies differently. Should any other Lynda blog visitors have blogs Id love to know. I really enjoy looking at such lovely work.
So I look forward to sharing 2015 with you, and hope its a good one.
Hugs.
Lancashire Steph xx

Tina XX
Hi Tina,thank you so much for all your lovely comments you have given me on my cards. I will also be checking your blog & your fantastic cards.
DeleteWishing you & your family a very happy new year.
Love Lynda XX
Lynda, a happy New Year to you and Terry, whom I hope is feeling better, and that his legs has settled down. You are more than welcome to leave a message for Steph or anyone on my blog. I have left a message at the end of my comment on Sues blog for Steph saying you had put a message for her on my blog. I hope it helps her solve the problem, nothing worse than not getting things to work. Have you seen Sandra's fab craft room? That she is showing us today. Jealous or what! Have a good day. Hazel x
ReplyDeleteHi Hazel,a very Happy new year to you & Charlie,I'v just looked at Sandra's lovely tidy craft room she is so organised isn't she,just like Sue's video craft room.
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting Steph know I messaged her.
Hugs Lynda xx
Hi there, cannot find any message on Hazel's blog. Did it go on Sue's as Id not want her to know I have a possible problem with her new dies. Whilst im here, does anyone else have little brown bits on their cardstock left after cutting the dies ? I have to use wax paper with every ppass and die when I use pastel/white card or im spending the next hour trying to scrape off the ugly brown bits from off the edges of the card with my nail !!!
ReplyDeleteOff to see if our Tina E has anything new for us.
Have a lovely weekend.
Lancashire Steph xx
Hi Steph, I did leave you a message on Hazels blog where you asked for help with the tTimes square Die in Ebosser.No Steph I would never ever something like that on Sue's blog. Anyway I put the die not right at the top of the plate other wise it won't go through,or pass it through with the die at the bottom of the plate,I have a 50 th birthday card on a previous post made with the die.hope this helps. I haven't had the problem with the nail scraping. Have you seen my post for the Mboss spray check it out it may help. I was having trouble with Sue's Angel having to run it through at least 6 times. With this spray it took just 2 passes.
ReplyDeleteHugs Lynda xx enjoy your weekend.xx
Hi Lynda
ReplyDeleteYes I have had trouble with brown marks from Sue's dies but I find if you dust the die first with plenty of talc using an old makeup brush the brown marks don't appear really and if they do they just wipe off.
Have a good weekend
Hugs
Margaret corgi owner
Hi Margaret,thanks but that was Steph having brown mark trouble hope she reads it.
DeleteI have just posted the card i made this morning, Sue posted one with the same die too.but i had finished mine. love Lynda xx
