Wellbeing Wednesday!

Hello you lot!

How are you? I hope this blog finds you feeling positive. And if it doesn’t? That’s okay too. We have good days and we have growing days.

And we must be grateful for both!

Remember in my last blog, where I said ‘Never a dull moment. I miss the dull moments!’. Well…

You just never know when something might happen unexpectedly. And so we must be grateful for the dull days too.

Our good friend Jane Telford was rushed into hospital for an emergency surgery yesterday morning. Poor thing. Don’t worry! She’s doing okay, she’s out of surgery and messaging me updates about how she’s managed a cup of tea already…

Typical Brit!

But she’s already been through so much lately, my heart sank when I heard that she had yet another hurdle to jump.
But jumped it, she has.

That’s Jane, you see. Always up for a challenge, with a smile on her face.

The power of Clarity is a wonderful thing. I remember so clearly the well-wishes I received after a throat surgery in 2017. And my Oma quite a few years before that… so I have a favour to ask.

Will you send her a card? Something bright & beautiful (like her!) to lift her spirits during her recovery? It’s always nice to receive some happy post. And collectively, I think we can give quite the ‘group hug’.

If you’d like to… You can send a Get Well Soon card to the following address:

ATTN: Grace Gray
Claritystamp
Unit F
Fircroft Way
Edenbridge
Kent
TN8 6EL

We’re all a big group of friends now really. It’s been that way for years. But the SHAC SHAC took that to a whole new level. And Jane has been a friend of ours and so many of you (as well as a member of our Design Team) for YEARS! And so I’m asking that we rally around her with our positive energy… because sometimes that is all that’s needed! 🙂

And making that card is good for you too!

Clarity matters. It really does.

Lotsa love, Grace xo

    So sorry to hear about Jane but good news that she is out of surgery and drinking a lovely cup of tea! Please pass on my best wishes to Jane for a speedy recovery. She is such an inspiration and her designs are pure magic! I had the pleasure and privilege to meet Jane at a Clarity Retreat a couple of years ago, she is a lovely lady and a brilliant crafter.
    Take care Jane, get well soon.

        She is a friend to us first. But she is also a member of our Design Team. You’ll often see her beautiful work on Hochanda shows, as well as all over our facebook groups and often in our blogs and galleries. xo

    Oh No! Glad to read that she is able to take tea. That’s a good sign. I hope they gave her a nice biscuit as well.

    I’ve always been a fan of Jane’s samples and recently discovered her blog. She just does everything well. Will make her something after work tonight.
