Fending for themselves

That's what my poor neglected children have to do this weekend :-) With a little (a lot!) of help from family, my new toy has arrived yesterday! I am thoroughly enjoying myself testing it - albeit on top not inside my sewing table as it is considerably bigger that my old machine so DH will have to make some alterations.
Since my last post I have finished my old job, been to the snow, trout fly fishing and rock wall climbing (well, support - morale and physical- for the latter two), have started my new job (thoroughly enjoyed my first three days) and gone back to my old school for my one day / week (I haven't had as many hugs in a day ever, seems the students missed me lol).
There are three washing baskets of washing to fold and put away, the dog hasn't been fed, bread needs making, I need to shoot up to Suz for a missing ingredient for dinner but obviously my priorities are with my
new toy - I better get back to it!
