I wasn't pressing you! I'm genuinely looking forward to it.

We've got buckets of brilliant articles in the bag but there's always room for more which reminds me I'd better stick one up today.

Didn't think you were pressing me, but I'm really looking forward to it.

Well I can't miss an opportunity to pester Alison She knows the one !

But apart from that, its less learning to make, as learning to find, foraging in various shapes and forms is what I want to learn.

Now, that's a level of commitment to which we should all aspire....

How did the market go?

Not very busy, but took a lot of money from the orders. Saw Debbie and Simon, as well as a few other people I know locally.
Bought quite a few things, and got quite cold.

Just about to go to bed now.

Night.

I have started making all my cards (Birthday, Christmas etc) so I want to continue doing that. I also started to learn the Clarinet and I want to be better at that this year. It's a wonderful instrument and music definately soothes the soul.
Bet OH dosn't think so!!!!

I paid for it what more do you want.

I'd like to teach Er not to use my office straight after a bath, I'm sitting in a wet patch (guess I'd better fit the units into her office )

I always get so excited about the things I'd like to learn, and pick way too many, so this year is going to be finishing existing projects. My only big new project is going to be reducing waste, and I had a worm bin for Christmas, hopefull this will really take off after few months as the veg garden gets underway (I suppose that counts as a new project too. Bugger!) If I pass my degree I will have a couple of months off in the early summer, so I have lots of plans for quilting, soapmaking, knitting, cross stich, latchook work and whatever else is lurking in the cupboard then.

I am going to have a better go at knitting - sufficient in dishcloths now so need to go to the next stage.

Brought a bead loom for 10p at a jumble sale so want to have a go at that and generally play with the idea of making own jewellry.

Bees are an idea - see resolutions for details- but need to do some research as to where I could realistically put a hive 1st and then book a course.

and last but not least, got given a proper easel for Christmas so I don't have to paint on the dining table on top of newspaper anymore like the kids, so want to develop that further - luckily I've chosen abstract type subjects to paint as I can't draw!

I hope to get allotment, do more art when the easel gets here, maybe take up an instrument I'm not sure whether I want to play the acoustic guitar or the cello.
