WOYWW 188


 Happy new year to the wonderful world of WOYWW  (dont know what it is see  julia's wonderful, addictive crazy world )
funny how many of us nearly forgot last week because of confusion over the days.
Back to normal after the recent festivities of christmas.
Well almost as you will see from my desk this week

 
Yes I am sad to say I am still making christmas cards.... ready for next year, I know, I know, but this is the last posting with it all on my desk... promise. ( I made 45 at the weekend.... am I smug or what!)
 What else. . . . oh the chocolate box is. . . empty, but they were delicious.
Not much else except my usual tools.... scissors, d/s tape and my trusty old bradle, which has featured a few times before.
I was back to Grandma duties again this week.

 
Erin did some colouring. But first she played with the box, the box holds 3 crayons, she managed to get about 10 in the box .... well she thought she did, as soon as she put a crayon in the top of the box it pushed one out of the bottom..... but she didn't know, it was very entertaining.
anyway 'That's all folks'. . . . usual rules apply see you on your desk

  3. Lol to Erin! I remember my lad on an Easter egg hunt when his basket had a hole and the eggs kept falling out of the bottom unbeknownst to him!! Very entertaining for a while.....
    Julia said you'd had a productive crop but 45??? Blimey, you are a machine!!! But you are allowed to be smug next Christmas :) I bought some lovely Christmas cards in the Paperchase sale, what a bargain!!

  13. You are so good on getting the jump on next years cards. I personally am sick of Christmas cards and will just have to start earlier next year.

    Don't we all try and cram more of our crayons, markers, paint brushes, and tools into small spaces. She is the next generation of WYOWW.

    I am friends with Sandee and new to WYOWW. Hope you get a chance to check out my desk and blog.

  22. I've had bags like that... where they seem to hold an infinite amount and then later you discover it all fell through to the floor. I am impressed that you have made so many cards for next Christmas. I had great plans to make some during my break off work but I made 2 and decided that was plenty and went on to better (but not bigger) things.

  23. 45 Christmas cards - I don't know if I want to congratulate you or say bad things behind your back. :-) I will say - good job. Cute Grandbaby. They are so cute when they're little. April #136

  26. Grandma duties are fun. They really do some of the cutiest things.

  27. Oh no, not Christmas cards, afraid I put all my C stuff back at the top of the wardrobe. Erin is a real cutie, and so clever to put all those crayons in such a small box.
    Sorry I didn't get round to your desk last week - where does time go?

  32. The crayon story is delightful, almost enough to make up for you being so ahead of the game vis a vis Christmas cards! My words are, if course, spoken out of jealousy. Why can't I be like you instead of leaving it all to the last minute?

    Thank you for visiting,
    Rachel

  33. Lucky you to have had Erin with you I am sure she is a joy. I am determined to get around to everyone in the #188 WOYWW even though Julia probably would have posted #200 by then... laughing at myself.
