NOT MUCH CRAFTING FROM ME FOR A WHILE

We had a disastrous weekend this weekend with a small house fire which has wrecked my dining room and possibly my craft room also. There won't be a lot of crafting from me for a while until we get it sorted. I've had a real horrible year with one thing or another and it seems to be carrying on right up till the end. I'm not sure how our Christmas is going to be and we were supposed to be having our mothers for Christmas. Thankfully we are all ok - thanks to my darling husband who smelled the smoke - our smoke alarms didn't go off until we actually opened the door where the blaze was but the house was full of smoke by that time. The insurance company was shut yesterday and their emergency number only knew how to deal with plumbing emergency or glaziers! Time to find a new insurance company that has 24 hours I think. Its only when you need them you realise the services they don't offer!

Oh, that's terrible news - I'm glad at least that nobody was hurt. I hope things are getting back to normal soon.
