Handmade Monday 50

Welcome to the 50th Handmade Monday (and as we took two weeks off over the Christmas break that must mean we’ve been going for a year!! Yay!!) and an apology . .

An apology?  Yes, I have to apologise for the lateness in bringing this to you – my only excuse is I’ve had a migraine all weekend and suddenly realised today was Sunday and I had nothing prepared for Handmade Monday!  Sorry to anyone whose been checking this out and waiting for the link :oops:

So, rather than try to cobble something together at short notice, I’m handing this Handmade Monday over to you guys!  Please leave your links below . . .

    Hope you are feeling better Wendy – migraine headaches are so exhausting and painful. Many thanks for finding time (and energy) to set up this week’s link. Hope you are fully recovered soon.

    Take care of yourself Wendy. Thanks so much for setting it up for us to join in with. I used to get dreadful migraines – paracetamol and chips were the only cure! Rest up and look after yourself.

    I’ve not suffered from migraines but for the occasional bad headache (or hangover) I find the best cure is diet coke and a good old fry-up. Hope you feel better soon. x

    Oh Wendy, if only you had someone who could take up the slack if you were ill (or just needed a break –the rest of us can just blow it off if we need or want to!) I understand, I sometimes simply cannot cope with anything else when I have one of those. I hope you get rid of that terrible headache soon. I wonder why so many of us suffer from them? They may not be the worst thing you can have but they are certainly up there in the top 2 or 3!

  8. So sorry the migraines are back Wendy. You really are a trouper and I am sure everyone would understand if you had to miss a week.

    Look after yourself & hope you things calm down so you can get back on your feet soon.

    Haven’t actually written my post yet to link to but will come back & add that when I have!

    Hope you feel well soon. Congrats on the 50th Handmade Monday! Doesn’t seem that long ago when it reached 40.

    Looking back at the past Handmade Mondays, I’ve noticed that the 1st anniversary is still 8 days away. I thought the same as you that this must have been going on for a year, but I guess this past year must have had a leap week or something like that :-D

    • Wendy says:

      Well spotted Stephen! I didn’t get as far as looking it up! It’s possible I jumped a week somewhere – and the first Handmade Monday isn’t linked any more because of complications with the linky host.

  11. Deborah says:

    I hope you’re feeling better soon Wendy xx

  12. Hope this week is kinder to you :-) thanks for doing the linky despite not being 100% xx

  13. Feel better – glad you are okay really – was beginning to worry. Have a good week

  14. Congratulations on reaching 50 HM’s

    Sympathies on the migraine, they can be so debilitating. I hope things are rapidly improving. Thank you for hosting again Wendy.
    Take care

    So sorry you have been poorly Wendy, these migraines are never nice.

  16. Wendy says:

    Thanks everyone for your lovely and supportive comments. Anyone who gets migraines will understand! I’m still getting them but not so frequently as I used to, which is superb and I need to remember that. However, they do tend to disrupt everything! Sorry about HM being late this week x

  17. RosMadeMe says:

    I am so sorry to read about the migraines… I thought you were delaying the post cos you knew that I hadn’t finished yesterday afternoon!

  18. mcrafts says:

    Hope you are feeling better Wendy (and sorry for rushing in at the last moment with my handmade Monday!) Mich x

    Hopefully you’re feeling better now, and thank-you for hosting Handmade Monday even when you’re feeling ill!

  20. I shalln’t be joining you today, as I have just spotted that OH has taken the camera to work. (Obviously if I had finished the piece yesterday I would have managed to blog it on a Monday instead). I was only discussing on Sunday, how many days of my life have been lost to migraines.

    • Wendy says:

      There’s always next time. I don’t want to think how many days I’ve lost to migraine – and they are *totally* lost, aren’t they? Such a total waste!
