Too many cups of coffee this morning and I'm feeling jittery. I am in one of those tailspins that comes with having too much to do and not knowing quite how to tackle it. In me, this usually results in MP (major procrastination), hence the lots of coffee. I've also emptied my airing cupboard and done 3 loads of laundry - it must be serious!
The weekend was fun - we went for a nature ramble with friends on Wittenham Clumps (the only hills for miles), spotting signs of autumn, like this one.

Mark and Ben found a den in the woods (why is my son wearing a Cherie Blair smile?), and Johnny stuck close to Mum and flatly refused to collect anything in his bucket. Funny beasts my boys.

I have been a bad blogger recently, failing dismally to publicly thank Tasha for her amazing swap parcel. Just look at the gorgeous wrapping.

Thankfully, my son has better manners and wrote her a thank you note straight away for the cute Cars-related goodies she included for the boys.

And I literally squealed when I saw the goodness included for me. Amazing Japanese fabrics and craft book, magazines and chocolate, coffee, tea and gorgeous tea towels. The photos are incomplete, because we have eaten, drunk and been reading.

Poor Tasha is patiently waiting until after the craft fair for me to make up and send her return parcel. Hey, if I did it now, I could procrastinate a bit longer..... couldn't I?
