Managed to get a couple more Advent Calendars onto Folksy today, I don’t feel the pictures do them justice, hard to convey the touchy feely squishiness of wadded fabric, the smoothness of cotton and the beautiful colours. They are both £22.50 at http://www.folksy.com/shops/Billybees
Apart from that I’ve had the pleasure of learning yet another new computer based skill (deep joy) as the pre-teen needs to do an Independent Learning Task which involves PowerPoint. Surprisingly neither her nor I have such a thing on our computers. Did find that my free Open Office download does have a similar soft wear programme and set to work on the simple task of creating a slide show … or in our case more a side show ….. you know, cringingly awful slapstick circus tomfoolery, which would have been a more appropriate title for what ensued. . Suffice to say, cross words were said and a few slamming of doors, the pre-teen, God bless her, took my tantrum all in her stride with little more than a few tuts and rolling of eyes.
