It is Wednesday and time for Julia's weekly blog and desk hop known as 'What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday' or WOYWW.
My desk is neat and tidy as I am getting my journal up to date so only pens, the book, my miniprinter etc are in use. The rest are detritus from being away (medication, kindle, audio CDs etc) and my usual large (pint) mug of tea!
We were down in Somerset last week visiting my mum and the weather was incredible - we spent most of the time outside helping to prune roses etc, going for lovely walks, and enjoying the spring flowers and unseasonably warm weather. The photo above is of Mum, my brother and me and her three grandchildren.
We also got to see Gran who has definitely turned a corner and is doing much better - she is now working on her stamina so that she can walk with more confidence and further. It is managing doors, with her walker that is proving the challenge. Needless to say Alex loved being with his cousins and the three of them had fun den building in the hedge.
That is all from me for now. Have a great week everyone. Take care,
With love and God Bless,
Caro

Oh Hello Caro, so nice to see your blog and your family! I'm happy your gran is getting better! My MUM is from London, born and raised! I'm in the USA and she missed home - been stateside now 50 years (shhh! don't tell her I said that, LOL!) I can't find a way to follow your blog? But hello to you and I'll stop by again! I saw your post on a friends blog and wanted to come say hello! xx
Ah bliss, Caro, a large mug of tea, a blank page and some pens. No more needed! So glad you managed to make the most of the weathe in Somerset, it really has been remarkable. And I must say...that’s quite a sophisticated den!
How lovely to meet up with family - good to hear gran is getting around. Wonderful weaher - so great to be out and about. A very tidy, focussed desk - hope you've managed to catch up. Happy Wednesday, Cindy #17
Brilliant photos Caro. What weather we've been having but they say it will cool down tomorrow so we'll see. Have a great woyww, what's left of it and a happy creative week, Angela x14x
HI Caro, ooh I am totally impressed your bulbs are up. ( I think the green parts of the daffodils are about 2 inches out of the soil (under the snow haha) last time we could see the dirt. That sounds like really good news about your gma too. ~Stacy #24
Can see Alex would've had a ball with his cousins how wonderful.. pity they werent closer. Love the cubby.. and what flowers! With industrious desk.
Glad Gran is on improve and pray that her driving skills around doorways improve! Is it her eyesight I wonder?

You couldn't have asked for better weather for half term - it was stunning here too! That's a great family pic and an ingenious den too, lol! Hope you had a lovely peaceful time with your book, pens and tea!
Hugs LLJ 10 xxxx
HI Caro, so good to hear about your Grans improvement. Building up stamina is always a long slow process. Lovely photos. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #6 X
So pleased to hear about your Gran - may she continue to improve daily.
Lovely photos of the flowers, especially the cyclamen, they are so pretty and what gorgeous colours. Must be a big garden judging by the size of the den the boys built. Oh happy days!
Lots of time for crafting, enjoy the outdoors when you can - and visiting!
Hugs, Neet 2 xx
Glad to hear that your gran is improving Caro. It looks as if Alex had some real fun building that den with his cousins. Happy WOYWW. Sarah #3
So jealous of your spring flowers and long walks outside. It's snowing as I type. Hasn't been the worst winter (little snow so far) but I miss being outside long periods of time. I have bullet journals too. One for work and one is a book journal. It's fun and I don't make it too complicated so I can keep up with it. Happy to hear your Gran is on the mend. I'm sure your visit only makes things better. Thanks for the visit and have a blessed week!

Lovely photos - its so good to see all the Spring flowers - even though it is a bit early. Winter will seem that bit shorter. xx Jo
HI Caro, sorry I'm late :o) Glad to hear you enjoyed that lovely spell of weather with your family and your Gran is improving. I have brilliant memories of building dens - I'ld still do it now given half a chance! Annie C #19
Thanks for sharing those lovely flower pictures. Proof that spring is around somewhere. What a lovely visit. Cousins, how fun! Glad Mum is doing better. Happy Thursday...
The weather was indeed incredable overhere too, it's nice to be outside and get some sunshine: energy for body and mind isn't it?! Glad your gran is doing better. Thanks for your visit earlier this week, I'm late again with my woyww-visit-round... enjoy your weekend! Hug from Holland! Marit #15
Somerset, Sunshine & sweet family times what a fabulous trio Caro, i'm sure your Gran will soon be racing with her aid managing those doorways with her eyes closed. Look forward to hopefully seeing what you create in you book.. I love that mini printer.
Happy WoywW Tracey #7

Your desk looks very inviting and I'm really intrigued about that mini printer. Lovely photos - sounds like you had a lovely time visiting your mum in Somerset. You certainly had the best weather for it! It was amazingly warm, wasn't it? Thanks for your visit earlier. Happy Sunday! zsuzsa #18
