2018 Stash & Grab

[richardandtracy]

Agreed.
People chatter when comfortable or nervous. No need to be nervous, so must be comfortable. Which is just the way we all want it.

Regards,

Richard.

Agreed too. I am a regular chatty Cathy and so far no one has told me to stop "talking". And this what the Stash & Grab is for. Besides being able to partake of all the food and drink you want with no ill consequences. And there are all kinds of special rooms if you need to yell or sing (with my voice I have to go to a soundproof room since I tend to be an off key monotone if that is possible. All I have to do to get the kids to be quiet is to start singing. Works especially well on long car trips). This is a wonderful and magical place.

Thank you. I am glad you didn't find my chatter irritating. Being new wasn't' sure.

Am busy once I sign off so you'll have a quitter day today I know have more posts to look at & comment on but will do those another day. Am looking forward to seeing more members' work. So much to look at but lovely to look forward to seeing the projects & am sure I will learn a lot too.

Hope everyone has a good day today

Its Party time
Come one come All!

Finally and at last we have Exchanged on the sale of my dad's house. It's been touch and go all week with this problem and that difficulty. ...then all of a suddenly it happened. Completion Friday and I am so happy. The new owner is extatic and loves the house! I'm just pleased it's all over.

So let's Party! to your favourite music and eat your favourite food.
I am on
Thank you all for listening to my woes and moans.

What a relief, Wendy! Well done you
I am bringing some Champagne to celebrate

[mysterystitcher]

Heyyy, that's great!
*would love to get something called béchamel sauce, without egg and the only spice is salt, and cooked potatoes of course, and apple juice and one scoop of chocolate ice cream with chocolate sauce, and maybe some and (buttermilk cake without egg) a little bit later*

[Serinde]

WW, that's great news, and what a relief for all of you. Extra nice to know that the person buying is anticipating living there happily ever after. Have one on me! -- or maybe by now?

[Mabel Figworthy]

What a relief! Great news Wendy, celebrations definitely in order!

[wendywombat]

Thank you...just popped to make sure that the house elves have cleared away those Party poppers!! They were hanging in strings around the tree House railings when last I looked.

I'm so glad it's all over and D/H and i can get our lives back...it's been a horrid year all in all, but near nuff over now.
We have a trip to the UK planned in 2 weeks, just social this time then next month we are off to Dublin for a City Break!

[Mabel Figworthy]

Oooh, lovely! If you're anywhere near Rugby during your trip, do drop in for a cuppa!

[Nicola Main]

Such great news Wendy! So happy it's all done and enjoy your little trips away

[daisychain]

Very pleased to read our worries are almost over regarding your father's house. What a blessing that will be once finalised. You'll be able to relax & recuperate after all the work this has entailed. Enjoy your travels in 2 weeks time.

[Garnet]

I'm so pleased for you Wendy, what a relief for it all to be coming to an end.

You have certainly earned your two weeks away.

[Serinde]

I'm gearing up for providing materials for my very last AGM as secretary of a local development charity. Thought I'd give someone else a chance after 8 years, and a great guy has put his hand up, so no need to worry about the future. So I'm having a and (luckily virtual!) while I go through the papers, back here in the corner.

[Mabel Figworthy]

Three cheers for Great Guy! Does this mean more stitching time for you? (your own stitching development charity, so to speak)

[wendywombat]

Cheers indeed for the Great Guy!

How will you fill your Spare Time???? as if i didn't know!


Not wanting to take Serinde's good news away....BUT...

Have Completed the Sale of House

[Garnet]

for Great Guy and hopefully more stitching time ?

And Wendy

And



Great news, the best news, after all this time and hassle and the whole house deeds saga, finally all done and dusted. or a large one of your favourite tipple is on me. Hurrah!

[Serinde]

Oh, I think a joint celebration is in order WW, don't you? We'll both have much more stitching time -- well, creative time, anyway -- me, without having to organise board meetings and so on, and you not worrying about documents and estate agents. Bliss!

@Mable: Indeed! The great guy is also knowledgeable with processes and computers, so I've no doubt he'll go like a dose of salts though my methods -- and all for the better! Good for the charity, too: anything that makes it easier for the Board and related groups -- everyone is a volunteer, you see. Guess I'll have another

[wendywombat]

You will, of course, join me?

[Serinde]

Naturally, my dear.
