Here's the desk.
Decorating the hall is all finished, have also spruced up the porch and now want to make plans for the living room before my attention switches to the garden. It's looking hopeful, but I'm still resisting going out in the cold.
Also managed to have the first meeting of my 'crop' a couple of weeks ago. It went really well - there was a lot of pent up chatting to get through!! We made this card. We had 8 in total and I am expecting a bigger turnout this month. We ended up meeting in the pub - a rather strange venue but seemed to work and nearly everyone stayed for lunch!!
Writing this it strikes me that it is all a bit trite given the current global situation. However I'm tired of holding my breath waiting for the world to get back to normal.
I need these small wins and plans in order to get up in the morning. I wish things were better everywhere but all I can do is hope things will improve as without that, well we might as well all stay in bed. Some people of course don't even have that luxury.
Happy WOYWW, Stay well, stay safe,
love n hugs

Those pandas are very cute and your card is lovely. How lovely to have a crafty get together. Have a great week. Angela #5
One of our local craft stores is in the older part of downtown and is connected to a bar. The wife has the crafts and the husband has the bar. Once, we had our crafting session right in the bar! LOL And lots of times, the bar catered our lunches while we were in a crafting class. Happy WOYWW! #23
8 for a re-start on the crop is brilliant, and more to come. Blimey, and you got stuff made! makes lunch at the pub almost the law really. Great arrangement. Super impressed by the nearly empty black basket. Am so with you on the apparent trite mess of our posts etc, but am told by a friend that it’s important that we let the routine and our ‘normal’ go on, because, exactly as you say, we wouldn’t be able to get out of bed without them. I’m putting off garden chores, everything is so damn wet.
What's not to love about a crop in a pub? My knitting group used to knit in a pub and it was always the best! The pandas are so cute. And yeah, routine is often the support I need to get anything done. Structure helps keep me sane some days LOL! But doesn't always work... I am criminally late for WOYWW this week :(
