Crafty in the Med

I am here to enjoy meeting other bloggers and to share my love of craft ,mostly crochet, my thoughts and my daily happenings here in Alicante,Spain, my adopted country. I belong to a local choir because singing and music makes me happy. Flea markets and book shops are two of my favourite places to be. I read lots......sci´fi/fantasy,buried treasure, and off world adventures. I have a passion for history! I walk and walk and walk for about 10 months per year during the hot months I swim.

  1. I hate ironing too Amanda in fact I hate all housework I can hardly bear to say the word. Isn't it awful when the holidays are over and you have to back to work, the longer you're off the harder it is. You work in a very posh place though I am impressed it's lovely. :) xx

  2. Very nice workplace Amanda. I feel much the same way as you do about ironing. Pretty much the only thing I have to iron anymore is hubby's shirts but that's enough for me. :-)
    Blessings, Betsy

  6. I usually watch a good film whilst ironing, that takes my mind of off the subject of ironing.
    Here in Somerset, it hasn't stopped raining since before Christmas, my garden is squelchy so cannot get on out there, and we live on top of a hilly road but the water is still laying in the garden!

  8. I'm not a fan of ironing too, but I don't like creased clothes and bed sheets either so needs must. I either listening to music or watch TV whilst ironing, although I have been know to sit down for a break and forgot to go back to the ironing. Just think how satisfied you will feel when it's all done!!!

  11. While I still have an iron, the last thing I ironed was leaves between sheets of waxed paper...which was ...interesting! I applaud your more frequent worthy ironing efforts. Thanks for the smiles your cartoons gave me, and I loved seeing the lovely facility where you work...bravo on posting the video :) Wishing you a happy week. xx
