WOYWW 630

Running late on the blogging front today, but was determined to join in with the fun that is What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday hosted by the lovely Julia.

Here is my desk as it was about 30 minutes ago... a mug of tea on the go, the order of service outline in progress (I am leading in church on Sunday so need to co-ordinate everything), my little note pad with a to do list on it, my camera sat on my laptop, and to the left a new index card box. The reason for the new box is that I have decided (rather late in the day) to join in with the index card a day challenge which runs through June and July.

Here are my 28 index cards so far - so I've nearly caught up! The idea is to do a piece of art on an index card every day for 61 days - the reality for me is that I do it in fits and starts when I have time. It's a good way to play with different media and ideas and to try out new techniques.

Thank you for you good wishes for our wedding anniversary, Tim and I celebrated with a lovely meal out at a restaurant in Sheffield called Brocco Kitchen. I have been playing with my new camera since then, but will have to share the photos next week as they are still on the camera rather than on my computer! I hope you are all keeping well. Stay safe and Take care,

With love & God Bless,

WOYWW 629 (and our 20th wedding anniversary)

 Ok, so better late than never for joining in with What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday courtesy of the lovely Julia. 

Here is my desk in chaos this morning as for our wedding anniversary, this morning Tim gave me a new waterproof camera plus a lot of accessories! I will have fun playing with this on my swim later. So on my desk is a large mug of tea, my laptop, ipad, the camera and loads of accessories (the random looking red thing is a floating handle - I have my doubts that it will stay afloat given the weight of the camera, but will be testing it in the bath!)... my various journals are also hiding on the desk.

I have done very little crafting this week (I had a sermon and a service to prepare) but did manage to make this card for Tim, although I was very cross with myself when I spotted the mistake (after I had given it to him!).

I am still swimming, on occasion joined by Alex, and am loving all the nature round us. Work is picking up again, but I have the day off today  and Tim and I are off out for a special meal to celebrate 20 years of us.  I will leave you with a few photos of our wedding...

We look so young... I hope you all have a lovely week, Take care and stay safe.

With love & God Bless,
Caro

WOYWW 628

 Welcome back to my blog for another edition of What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday courtesy of the lovely Julia.  I apologise for being missing in action for a few weeks, but life went a bit mad.  I did manage to get to my Mum's and see her and my brother and his family, and since getting back I had a streaming summer cold then work and church activities exploded. 

Here is my desk as it is this morning - all set up for work with my diary and bullet journal sat in front of it, and my trusty mug of tea.

I have done a little crafting in the form of getting my journal up to date, but that's all I have had time to do.  

The time at Mum's was truly wonderful - sun and laughter and hugs with the family. These are just a few of the photos showing how special it was. I will keep it short today, so take care everyone and stay safe.

With love & God Bless,
Caro
