Waiting with mixed feelings

I keep waiting for my computer to be well so I can blog again, but the time and motherboard have come to realise that might just be a while so it's back on the ipad .
It is almost time for the hijinks and Bookface has been awash with photos of very generous donations by people. Highjinks is actually the day before I return to work ( yep, thats it folks - 7 months gone in the blink of an eye and no I do not want to talk about it. I am pursed at both ends at the thought.)
All the following people have donated things for either our goody bags or door prizes and they all deserve a big round of applause. We have SO MUCH GREAT STUFF to give away.
There are going to be little demonstrations and mini-workshops, there will be some stalls where you can buy crafty goodies and there will be a special opening of The Crafty Squirrel ( about 10 mins from the hall) in the afternoon.
If you would like to come along, you simply have to go and buy a ticket . This is not a money-making venture folks, the cost of the ticket covers morning tea, lunch, coffee tea etc plus the cost of the hall. This is a bloggy hangout venture and I, for one, have been polishing my bells and whistles in anticipation !

  5. don't you just hate it when something so eagerly anticpated comes right before something not so eagerly anticpated.....you can't wait for one thing ...but you are in no hurry for the second to arrive....can't believe seven months have passed so quickly....keep the pursing muscles clenched :)
