Sorry for the absence.....
Sorry I have been out of touch and didn't follow up on my promised Easter craft inspiration. I did have all good intentions of doing it, but I'm afraid instead I have been spending my days with my family at the hospital bedside of my Dad who has been critically ill since complications from back surgery two weeks ago. He is still in intensive care and it has been a very stressful, anxious, emotional and exhausting time for all.
So it may be a week or so before I'm back on board, but I do hope you all had a lovely Easter.

ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear of your Dad's ill health Mel. I went through an emotional nightmare whilst my Dad fought (and thank God, won)an exhausting and protracted fight with bowel cancer last year. My heart goes out to your family in full understanding of how traumatic a fight it can be. I pray your Dad has a strong and tenatious fighting spirit and that your family can celebrate like we have as Dad rejoined us.
