Taking a break from the Internet

My dear friends,
I need to take a break from blogging and emails for a while... My little sister is having a rough time and came to me for a home - she needs lots of love and attention, and we've also started looking for a place for her in Paris (which is no piece of cake!). This leaves absolutely no time for stitching or the Internet (I have to use every spare minute to work, obviously!).

Friends, I'll be missing you, and hope to be back as soon as possible! In the meanwhile, I hope you all have a happy time.

I would like to send special thoughts and (((((hugs))))) to two friends...
First, to dear Becky, whose Birthday is today!!! Lots of love to you my dear friend... I hope you're having a fabulous day!! I am so disappointed and ashamed that my gifts didn't reach you on time - how unloving that must have felt for you... The only benefit is that it'll make your Birthday last longer!

I am also sending special thoughts to dear Barbara, whose house was robbed last week. Barbara, I am keeping you in my thoughts and hope that this will soon be but a bad dream for you all... ((((((hugs!))))))

Everyone take care !

Take all the time you need, Isabelle, we all have urgencies and priorities in our life that cannot take second best. The main thing is that you care for your sister, keep well yourself, have sweet dreams and get back to blogging when time allows. I count myself lucky because I think we will see each other for the Olympia show ... hopefully you will be able to come over, but otherwise, will catch up soon {{{{Major Hugs}}}}}

Take care. First Peter 5:8 "Cast all your cares upon {the Lord} for He cares for you."
