Missing blogging...........

I have missed blogging.  Life has been busy these past few months, and quite a few times I have started to write a blog post and then thought why bother?  However time and time again I have come back to my blog to find things; whether it be a recipe or a pattern.  

I had thought about completely deleting my blog but its like having a library of me and things we have seen, done and made over the years that it would be such a shame to get rid of it all.  

So I think I will give it another go and try and be a better blogger and post about our life.  I know I don't work outside of the home but I seem to have a lot of things going on.  The grandkids are all growing, and have plenty going on in their lives.  We moved house last November got lots going on with the new house.  I am a busy bee with sewing and have lots to share with you there.

One of the things I have benefited from with my blog is making some very dear friends from all over the world as well.  That in itself is priceless.  So with that in mind I am going to try and get back into the habit of blogging about my life.  Will prepare a post for tomorrow (Sunday) and start from there.

Meanwhile I have joined my local library and joined a book club, so have been reading quite a bit recently and have read a number of good books.  So if you get time check out my other blog "That British Woman's Book Review Blog."

I will leave you with this photo of the pattern and material for a bag class I will start this coming week.
The fabric is "Spring Awakens," by Debi Hron for Henry Glass & Co.  The bag pattern is "The Sling Along," by Studio Kat Designs.

I am so glad you are back! I have missed you! Of course, Facebook is always there but it isn't the same as our blogs. Visiting my friend's blogs is like stopping by your house for tea. I love it. I have spoken about all of you like you live next door and my kids get tickled that I feel such a kinship to people I don't "really" know but I feel like I really know you. So, looking forward to visiting again!

I have missed you. I visit my blog friends every day and feel like even though it is via the internet that we meet, we get to know each other on a different level.

God bless.

Welcome back. We have missed you. You don’t have to post every day
That makes it a chore
I have taken that pressure off myself and it’s a joy again to blog
