It's that time again.
Time to get started with plans and patterns and lists of things to do this year.
I just wish sometimes that the weather wasn't so miserable in January because it's hard to get-a-going to it's so blooming miserable outside. I'm fed up with winter woollies and welly boots and could do with a bit of sunshine to get me going again.
On the plus side, I have a lovely new framed certificate as my reward for coming second in the Christmas window competition... yay.. go me...
My next competitive challenge is come up with something wonderful for a Valentine's window display. I'm thinking of perhaps not crocheting my display this time, but you never know. 
I'm currently waiting for marks for my latest OU assignment. I submitted it during the Christmas holiday, which now feels like ages ago and I'm feeling a wee bit anxious. Hopefully all will be well but it's a bit distracting and seem to have lost the ability to think of much else. The funny thing is that I really only signed up for the course for fun.... Who thought I was going to take it all so seriously ? I'm loving the fact that I'm learning new things and really challenging myself in a whole new direction. It's definitely good to try new things. It would all be a bit boring if we didn't.

Well done on the window competition! I know what you mean about the weather ... it was grey, wet and windy for ages here, but yesterday the sun decided to make a welcome appearance so I can't really complain too much!
