Your blog has been going a while, I feel very late to the party, where have I been? lol. I'm enjoying reading people's blogs but am having to limit following blogs now - with work, housework (must do some) shopping and crafts etc it all takes time. Today I wanted to do dusting but the fridge needed cleaning desperately, it took ages but needs must.
