I know, disgracefully late, but considering I wasn't too sure whether I would be able join in this week, I'm pretty chuffed to be here and revealing what's on my poor neglected desk today. After all, the week isn't the same without my WOYWW fix. It's gonna be brief ... there really isn't much to show.
I said there wasn't much to look at! Although I find genealogy an endlessly fascinating subject, I have to admit that from a crafting perspective the paperwork isn't all that interesting to look at, yet!
Don't know what WOYWW is all about, pop on over to Julia's Stamping Ground where you can find out all the info and loads of links to many more desks. Me, I'm now going to begin checking out desks. As I'm told I need to pace myself, listen to my body, etc., etc., etc., I hope you will forgive me if it takes the better part of the week to do all that hopping :)
In the meantime, I hope you have a great week.
Happy Crafting,

I am later than you! LOL
I almost didn't do it at all, but I am kind of adicted! I am overwhelmed with photos and items for my late family members. Don't know where to begin!
Good luck with your project, and I hope you are feeling better. #79
I'm not pleased to hear you've been unwell and really do hope you do just as you've been told and make good steady recovery. Listening to your body is wise advise :-)
Big get well hugs,

Oh Elizabeth, I so agree with you. I did a lot of research a few years ago - and would like to do more. I would like to find out about John's mother's family - who seem to be a real mystery....
Trust you feel better soon, and more crafting and less housework does the trick!
Take care. God bless.

My brother did a fair bit of our family tree but as everybody was called David or Thomas Williams in Wales, we soon got bogged down! How far back have you got?
Glad to hear you're picking up but do take care :-)
Hugs, LLJ 30 xx
So sorry to hear you've been poorly - definitely less housework and more crafting on prescription. Thanks for sharing your workspace today. Hope you have a great day and a lovely crafting week to come. Hazel, WOYWW #45 x
Genealogy sounds absolutely fascinating and a labour of love. Good idea to go Project Life style sounds the simplest way to deal with lots of information and pics.

Hi Elizabeth,
fab look at your desk.
You do look very busy from what I can see.
My DH calls my craft room my grump room as all he can get from me when I'm in there is grump talk.
He also says I get deaf while I'm in there too.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
We have done quite a lot of family history and it is totally fascinating - a good way to chill out. I do hope you are able to take life steady and that your health improves. x Jo
I hope you recover quickly. And I'm sure crafting is like therapy so it is good for you. I find genealogy fascinating.

being down is no fun but sounds as if you aren't out for the count. I agree about being a good reason to just relax and craft a bit. On Geneology, did you know there are a couple of free sights similar to Ancestry.com and there is one for researching graves? Drop a note on my blog if you need anything.
Creative Blessings! Kelly #67
I just spent a week with my sister-in-law who is super into genealogy, and I have to say, I was totally fascinated looking through her stuff and learning so much more about my husband's family tree. She's gone back several hundred years and has traced over 20,000 family members! That's awesome!!!
So sorry to hear you weren't feeling so good again...hope it's better now and that you were able to get lots of crafting done!!
Happy (very late) WOYWW!
