Life's Ups and Downs..........

My poor Daddy isn't well, he is in hospital bless him. Not ever posted about this before, but my Dad has advanced prostate cancer and he hasn't been well for a few days. The bugger was playing golf the other day and then whammo! here we are with him in hospital. He has an infection and yesterday was rather incoherent, or totally doo-lally. Anyway he is a little bit better today, still slightly "away with the fairies", but cracking jokes, in fact he is kind of like a happy drunk so he is on the mend.

I was due to go to the trade show at the NEC today and ummed and ahhed about going with Dad in hospital - anyway hubby said I should go, so I went but felt rather half hearted about the day. Saw some lovely stuff especially from Cosmo Cricket, Sassafrass Lass , Basic Grey, Crate Paper and others, but since I don't run a shop I can't buy any yet (boo-hiss)

Caught up with some crafting peeps, Lynn Martin the lovely editor of Quick and Crafty who has been soooooooo supportive of my designs and I love her for it!! Also saw Dyan from Art from the Heart, Diane and Linz from Practical Publishing and the fabbo Paula Pascaul and Amanda Walker who were demoing on the Kars stand.

Back home now and keeping fingers crossed for my Dad!
