Birthdays at Dream Valley

Good Evening My Lovely Crafting Friends

Thank you for all the lovely comments you have left me

it has cheered me up, I feel so lucky to have friends like you.

Pearl's funeral is on Thursday so another trip down the road

I feel as I have hardly been home this year.

Our building works are going well, we are having a Sun room

added to the back of the house, it seemed ages since we decided 

on having this done it took ages to get a Building Warrant for the build

they started the day we left home for Majorca, we were very surprised

to see how well they had got on. It is nearly finished. 

We had a lovely holiday on the Island of Majorca, we just relaxed

didn't do very much. It was very warm, helped the old bones.

I will add some photos when I get get back from Hassocks. Will I be so glad to see

2018 hopefully it can't be like this year

Enough of the waffling and

Good Afternoon My Lovely Crafting Friends

Hope you are well sending hugs to those in need of them

and I hope you all had a lovely weekend.

Yesterday we got some bad news my Sister-in-Law lost her fight

to Cancer. We don't know when the funeral will be. So the rest of the family

have said to go on our holiday as the funeral will probably later rather than sooner.

My Niece's  daughter had to come home from their holiday in Greece

as she had been taken ill again, we don't know if her Cancer has returned

we will find that out next week.

Cancer is a bummer
