Rocking Your World Friday

Hello again, my goodness dont the weeks come round fast when you are marking Fridays with Virginia, I think this is now my fourth or fifth week of joining in with Virginia's Rocking your World. Hop over to her fab blog Celtic House and see what its all about. So what have I been grateful for this week. Firstly let me say that I wasnt on the ball so its a pretty pictureless post this week. So the lovely sunny summer weather has lasted most of the week here in the west of Scotland so thats always good, long may it last, I feel so much better in the sun. Secondly continuing along with the ICAD (Index Card a Day) Challenge - this has had me sat at my craft desk each and every evening which is beginning to fire up my mojo a bit. Tomorrow I will blog a summary with this weeks cards. Payday!!! Yes indeedy today is payday so for a brief day or so until the direct debits zoom out I am temporarily rich lol A lovely family - I am blessed indeed to have two fantastic kids who have grown up (and so quickly) into two extremely well rounded and brilliant adults - Fraser (21) and Fiona (19), I love you both :), My Mum and Dad both very supportive parents especially in the last seven or eight years since my divorce. My Dad has been diagnosed with Vascular Dementia and has some weeks better than others. Last week he was in top form and his brilliant sense of humour was back with a vengence which was a blessing to behold. A job I enjoy. I feel blessed that in this economic climate I have a job in a place which seems to be busy and is as secure as anything is at the moment. I am also blessed to work with an incredibly supportive team of people which makes all the difference to the working day. The time and a small amount of ability to enable me to make arty things. Not something I ever thought I would do - my Second Year School report from my art teacher stated. "Slapdash but does try hard" I will leave you with a wee page in my art journal I blogged before but have finished with some wording
Until next Friday, have a lovely week rockettes.

  1. Wow Suzy fabulous list payday is always fun for the short period before all the bills get paid LOL! Loving your page - love the butterflies! Your parents sound fantastic, i'm glad you were able to spend some positive time with your Dad dementia is such a difficult element of so many people's lives now (my MIL has dementia). And finally a good job really is worth its weight in gold. I hope this next week provides you with many more blessings.

    Hugs
