I've been away from Cute for some months now. Ill health and a daughter's broken marriage has taken up my time but this morning I sat down with a coffee and caught up on what I've been missing. So, a big THANK YOU to all you wonderful Cuties out there, you have inspired me with your beautiful projects and generous free design. Time to wake up my machine and get started again. Question! Do I do all the ideas I have had from this mornings viewing or do I finish all the U.F,O's sitting in the box? Decisions! Decisions!

So glad to hear from you - do what you can - a bit of each - I would say. If the projects inspired you - tackle one of those - then one of the UFO's - then back and forth. Maybe you will get them all done. Welcome home!

Thank you. I've made a good start. The problem is sitting at the machine, I keep having to get up and walk around then I get sidetracked into something else! *

Life often gets in the way of what we want to do. I am glad you are back again. Now do what your little heart desires. I found there is a reason why they became UFO's. So treat yourself to something fun.

Thank you. I looked at one UFO and realised I'd put it together the wrong way round so no wonder I couldn't get it to fit together! On to the next .... *

Life is constant challenges, which take a toll on our stamina, but inspite of the trials, we have to focus on our blessings to be able to forge ahead. So glad you are back! You sound like you are feeling better! Now, prioritize those decisions, and take one day at a time to aleviate stress. Too blessed to be stressed, so let's smile and be happy!!

Thank you. I,m much better, just a bit fed up with medication!
I think when things get tough it's for a reason and if we can meet it head on and get through it, we are better people after. *

I feel for you! I am going through the same thing will my daughter right now. She was served divorce papers this morning. It is a really hard time for the whole family. Glad things are better for you. Embroidery can be your saving grace. Keep your mind busy and prayers life open.

You are so right! Hubby and I fell quite helpless sometimes, all we can do is be there for our daughter and 2 granddaughters. One positive thing that has come out of it is that the girls are far more settled and happier now that dad has left the family home.
Sadly their house went up for sale this week, but again the girls are looking forward to a new house and our daughter to moving on and starting afresh. I hope your daughter gets through this okay. *
