Hello everyone, hope you enjoyed July. Mine was very busy out and about doing fairs, not to mention quite hot at times. Now suddenly it’s August - I only have to get through celebrating my wedding anniversary :grin: then all day in the Craft tent at Garstang Show on Saturday, and life returns to normal. (i.e. making and photographing as much Christmas stuff as possible)

I’m starting with a relist - not ideal I know, but it was my only Folksy sale during July. Missing British Crafters promotions already :cry:

Wow - August already! Welcome to all the newbies and welcome back to all those who haven’t been around for a while. Lovely to see some familiar faces returning.

Thanks for looking after us again Max @MaxPringJewellery. I have a sneaky sale to add to the tally please, but it was late yesterday evening, so I guess it needs adding on to the July tally? I really hope my amazing July run continues in August.

I’ve started a new Pinterest board where I’m pinning everything from this month’s thread. Claire @ClaireMortArtist you feature quite heavily on it already after this morning’s shenanigans lol :rofl: Here’s the link if any one wants to visit.

Here’s my new listing for today.

Hi guys, I am new to Folksy and have only been here for a few weeks. I am still learning the ropes. I thought it might be a good idea to get involved in the forum which I have only just discovered btw, haha. Anyway hope everyone’s having a good week.
I can’t figure out how I’m supposed to add a clickable picture though :thinking:
Here’s a ring dish I listed:

I’m back - after gallivanting for three months, celebrating 50 years married to @XStitcherJoss. It’s good to be back; thanks to @MaxPringJewellery for taking this forum on into August. Good to see so many old friends some new names too. Welcome aboard @HaySheen, whose listing just popped up as I’m writing this reply.
I managed to keep my listings current until mid July so I’m not going to be flooding the forum with relists. In fact I have a whole new listing today. Let’s see if I remember how to do this -

Afternoon. Hope you don’t mind if i join in this month.

I would have posted earlier but i unexpectedly sat in a&e for 3hrs. Hubby has had s problem with his shoulder for months now. He’s waiting on a physio appointment, been waiting 3 months so far. Anyway today at work he picked up a box and got excruciating pain so much so that he dropped the box and it bought tears to his eyes. This happened right in front of his manager who told him to leave work and get to a&e. Our house is on the way to the hospital so he stopped to pick me up so i could drive the rest of the way as driving is now painful for him.
Basically his muscle in his shoulder is getting pinched when his arm is in certain positions. There’s not much can be done other than light duties at work (he is a fork truck driver and works in a warehouse that feeds to supermarkets so often has to do lifting) and the hospital told him what exercises the physio will get him doing so at least hubby can start at home whilst waiting for his appointment. If after 6 weeks of that it’s no better, then they will do an injection into the joint.

Also since i was here last, my job has changed. Well, the company i work for has anyway. I’m still on school transport but was really unhappy with the company i was with so i left and went back to the company i worked for a year ago. Some of you may remember that they didn’t have enough work for me which was the only reason i left. I’m so much happier now I’m back but I’m no longer working in my hometown which means my hours have increased from 20/week to 35+ and with my illnesses i seem to spend Monday to Friday in a permanent state of tired :joy:
So I’m not sure how ill cope with listing when I’m back at work but as it’s the holidays I’ve got the whole of August off so can devote time to folksy.

After reading all that (if indeed you have!) I bet you’re glad I’m back :joy:

Todays listing
