Wednesday - we made it half way through the week!

Morning readers, 

Half way through the week? How does that keep happening? Sometimes I feel like I just turned around and lost a couple of days! Still, isn't it nice to be just starting to arrange to see people (albeit outdoors and TOTALLY weather dependent) and even to think about soon being able to go out to dinner! Woo Hoo! How exciting does that sound after all these months? I'm not sorry that we shall soon be able to mingle indoors (sensibly) as the weather has been rubbish the past few days! We've had torrential rain, high winds and even a couple of hail storms, none of which bode well for outdoor meets!! This time last year we were basking in the sunshine with the BBQ out - not so, this year, darn it!

I've a make to share with you today ....... an Artist Trading Card which deploys a number of my "much neglected" Twinkling H2O's along with an image from a set which has hardly (if ever) been used before. Having recently enjoyed "rediscovering" my H2O's I seem to be using them a lot now - no bad thing!
