Blog Candy Clasp Bag Draw

Thank you so much for joining in my clasp bag blog candy draw. Well if you know me by now, you will have guessed I wouldn't be able to cope with a random number generator malarkey - way beyond me! But I can cope with writing names on bits of paper and drawing them out of a hat! I have never done a blog candy before (too poor!), and I am now thinking, oooh, I want to give something to everyone who has joined in. Do you feel like that when you do one?

Without further ado, the name pulled out of the hat is:-

Ephemera! And what a wonderful lady she is too. It is a bit 'Coals to Newcastle' to send you a bag, Paula, when mine are such a poor imitation of the gorgeous ones you have made which have so inspired me and given me such pleasure, but hopefully a fitting thank you. I hope you will accept it in the spirit of a gift from a grateful fan, and I hope one day we will get to meet and craft together. Please drop me a line with your address.

Hope everyone is having a good Sunday. I have hit another bad spot in our sagas, not for any one particular reason, just feeling low and that I have run out of steam with the chaos and everything that needs doing. The builders seem to be a good bunch and are cracking on very fast now with our house. I think the adrenaline kept me going for the first couple of months but the whole process has dragged on so long that my health and strength are not holding out and I desperately want some stability and to have my life back. I don't cope well with unheaval and uncertainty. I know I have an awful lot right now that I should be feeling grateful about, especially when I think how grim the outlook was at first, but I am afraid I have just had enough.
