When I was married my house was always spotless and there was never a thing out of place but I was sooooooo unhappy. Now I keep the place tidy(ish) and whizz round for a couple of hours on a Friday evening so the place looks reasonably ok for the weekend and enjoy my days off. I try and have an hour or so crafting in the evenings cos I think life is too short to spend all your time working and doing the dreaded h*******k! I think having time to spend doing something you enjoy is so much better for you than getting stressed out about a bit of dust. Claire xx

I would love to have more time for my crafting, one of these days I suppose. Liz M

Everything you said is as if I had written it. Every weekend I am going to craft and every weekend I spend catching up on other things, and then Monday morning comes round again and its just the same old cycle every week. What are we like!! Anne

It just depends on my mood. While I had my grand-daughter staying over her Easter holidays I hardly found any time for crafting. I need to set some time aside each week for crafting, as though I have an appointment. Wanda

I dont go to workshops or craft groups, infact the local craft group doesnt even craft they just sit chatting. I can spend hours on my cards, its great and the house work, well it will get done eventually - LOL

Its the weekend, I have been at work all week, and I have a list of things in my head that I should be doing, but my new Cute Companions CD came this morning, and a new stamp I ordered from Sharon, so now I don't know what to do first! There is washing to put out and more to put on, cleaning, dusting, etc., etc., Oh, blow it all. I'm gonna have a look at the CD, and then go down to my local craft shop (which is just down the road from where I live) and have a mooch around. Then I'm off for a walk around the lake in the park nearby. I have to get some walking in at the weekend because I am stuck in an office all week. I'm hopeless, aren't I. And I've got C & C on in the background trying to catch up on all the programmes I recorded yesterday while I was at work. I need to get organised. Anne
