I need more hours in the day

I really do need more hours in the day, 24 is just NOT enough lol. This last few days I've been busy building a couple of blogs for other people. The first was a blog to showcase a friends greenwood carving workshops, she is going self employed and needs a blog to show off what she can offer. Her plan is to do festivals, fete's and any community days, it appears to be popular as she's already got some bookings. Here's a link to her blog http://thewoodcraftscrew.blogspot.com/ The second blog was for Bryn another person who is going self employed, Bryn provides training and support for anyone who is dealing with their own or another’s anger and also stress management. He is currently working with some children at a Holyhead school and is very pleased by their commitment to his program. Here's the link to his blog, if you click on the tab called information there's some free downloads and a free online anger test both are very interesting http://welshassociationofangermanagement.blogspot.com/ Please feel free to pass their blogs on to anyone you think may find them interesting or might like to use their services. As if these two blogs weren't enough, I've also started to design myself another one too, I've decided I need a separate blog with my arts and crafts on, as they are getting lost in amongst my waffles on here. I'll also be putting some of my work on one of the craft selling sites and doing direct links to that too. I'm quite excited about this, especially as I've got a new project in the pipeline, which I think is going to be very popular.

Sunday saw my daughter and I off on a wander in the car as my mothers day treat....my perfect present :o) First we headed off to Pwllheli to a little part of a huge beach called Gimlet Rock. Here I managed to find some small bits of driftwood something that is sadly lacking on Anglesey. I was also on the look out for some interesting but bigger bits of wood for my garden. On our way to Black Rock Sands in Porthmadog, one of the few beaches I know where you can drive your car onto the beach, we saw loads of pieces of wood but the lanes were so narrow there was nowhere to park !!! As there was a bit of a breeze that day I hoped there might be some kite surfers around for me to photograph. But as luck would have it, the tide was out and there were some wind buggy's flying around the beach too, also one lone guy having a go at kite boarding. The kite buggy's look like amazing fun and was I younger and a lot fitter, I'd love to have a go at this. On the way home we were still scouring for wood for the garden, my daughter screeched to a halt and started reversing, she'd spotted something she thought I might like out of the corner of her eye. Not quite what I was looking for but just as good, some dead ivy roots had fallen off a tree, I do love these twisted gnarled pieces of wood, they look so lovely hanging up with some crystals or gem stones attached to them.

My waffles seem to be getting longer and longer, to anyone that's made it this far ....... well done lol !! If anyone fancies saying hello, just click on the comments link just below the bottom of each entry, you don't have to have a blog yourself and can even be anonymous if you like :o)
