Thanks for the replies. I've had my granddaughter around quite a bit in the past but I find it more hard going than going around there. She used to like getting her little brush and pan out and sweeping up for me but everything lasted about five minutes before the next activity. Now she just loves role playing games with toys and dolls and playing dressing up and dancing. I've probably got into bad habits giving her my undivided attention for several hours at a time although I've got a 1 year old grandson as well now and I have to keep an eye on him too.
I'm just going to have to limit the days now and try and get some energy going and getting back to jobs in the house.
good to of others having craft interests too.
