Well its been a while..life is just speeding by....where do the days go?
On the home front.....Recently my darling daughter had us all wondering how she will survive once she leaves home..One morning last week i heard her scream from the laundry...
"Mum come quick! Jack has just put a glass of water in the washing machine"....
Hmmm i thought...."Well just pick out the cup"...
No she yells back he just tipped the water in"...
Ok no problem.."Are there any clothes in there to be washed i yell back?"
Yes comes the reply,,,but he poured water in the machine, and its not on! came her reply.. "tHATS OK JUST TURN ON THE MACHINE, A BIT OF WATER WANT HURT"..I YELL BACK AS I GET UP TO GO AND SEE WHATS THE Problem...
And from the depths of the laundry comes a scared voice.."but what if it blows up?...
" What i laugh as i catch her peering into the machine..
"It might blow up now, he put water in it and its not on."
...Ummm sweetheart i answer as serious as i can be..its a washing machine, you put water in it to wash clothes, thats what it does, uses water...she stood staring at me....then on came the light..oh yeh..hahahaha, silly me....
Hmmmmmm watch out world, here comes my daughter..lol
In my scrapping world, not a lot of scrapping happening...

cheers!!!

Wow its been a long time i know!!!

I started full time work as a teacher and have been flat out !

I also resigned from all my design teams as it wasnt fair as i had no time to scrap for the first few weeks till i settled in.and it was time for some new designers to have a go...

But now im organised and itching to scrap!!!

Its the holidays and time to scrap..i also have a retreat coming up which should help the mojo...

I have done some scrapping here and there..

So ill just do a quick catch up and share...

Its been so long i cant remember what they were for..lol..
well ill catch up again in a few days..i need to go and blog surf for a while and catch up on other blogs...

Oh its school holidays!!! yay!!! And its raining..but thats ok: as your kids get older its not really an issue anymore, as two work full time now and the two at school go out with their mates and that just leaves Jack, who needs to go to daycare!!!!

So apart from doing nothing ive decided to reaarange our room and get new furniture. Out with the old and in with the new....

So we have been perusing the shops and im loving ikea at the moment.. I want something light in colour, east to mathc and nothing to clutter the room. So ive decided to go from the wood and black we have now to white...yep just white with red and black accentsd and terracotta colours...Now criag is blaming the TV for this change, as we got foxtel not long ago and i love the do it shows, like house renovating and gardening. So everytime i say to Craig, "Babe i was just watching this show and i have an idea", he cringes and groans..lol..well our new mattress arrives tommorrow and we pick up our bed next week. But before that i need to empty the room and it has all my scrapping stuff in it!!! what a mess..lol Oh well im sure it will look so much better after the change...

Now i have some sharing to do..
