Whats been happening??

Well Emma wrote "update your blog" on my facebook page so I am.  I am currently of sick after being diagnosed with Crohns and having a really bad flare up.  I am struggling to come to terms with my lack of ability to do normal things just now and the waves of tiredness that hit me and floor me.  I am eating but having to keep a food diary.  My life is totally upside down and then there is the steroid treatment that means I am up every 2 hours wide awake.  Oh the joys!

I have not put any photos of New York up as I think I look to thin in them, however here are a couple.

Here is myself and lovely Stuart out on the Hudson.

Safari Park




Oh my it was amazing. 4 adults and 3 little boys having a fantastic day out. Struans favourite bit was going on a boat. I loved the sea lion show.

Tonight I am making bunting for baby Ellen. I am going to make a dress for my brothers wedding but I am building up to that project. I have been hemming jeans and I am now happy enough with my lovely new Janome machine that I am going to make bunting then a new nursery bag for Struan.
