  8. I had big plans on what I could do when I retired, lots of crafting, making my dolls house, learning more embroidery techniques, gardening etc. But now that I am not working any longer the reality is so different than what I had thought and I have to fight to have time to do my crafting each day, I don't know how I used to have time to go to work...lol

  20. Retirement = no early alarm to get up in the morning - the opportunity to craft as much or as little as I want and the ability to attend more craft workshops - just need to be able to pay for it all.

  26. Tried to leave a comment a couple of times but it doesn't seem to publish - I'll try again...
    I'm not able to work now but my retirement would be unlimited crafting outside my cottage overlooking fields and wildlife.So inspiration would be at my fingertips.My grandchildren would come and stay over and play too and there would always be Little Claire products on my table.(very nice fantasy I think).Absolutely love this fabulous silhouette stamp.It is so usable.Hugs Debbie x
