I did it!!!

Evana (pointing to the right side of my blog so that you can see her link) asked me to be a guest designer on Luv2scrapbook.com Check me out!!! I was so nervous but so glad she gave me the kick up the butt and I did it. Thanks E for giving me the opportunity. I enjoyed it!! So go to their website and check out my page. Its for the Carolees papers. They are fun and funky to play with.

One more sleep to fun fun fun. No I have not packed, although I seem to have a heap of chocolate and lollies on the floor in my scraproom, along with my sleeping bag and hot water bottles. LMAO But nothing else. Just can not decide what to take. Haven't even chosen photos. I just got some cool new chip chatter stuff and some lil davis things too and I wanna take them all to play with LOL I also know that there will be plenty of product to drool over too. Maybe I will just take my trimmer, photo splits, glue, ink and photos.

Right off to do something, I promise.

How many sleeps???

WOW 2 more sleeps and then it is scrapcamp. I am finally feeling that I am getting organised. Not sure why I have that feeling as I haven't done anything but print some photos LMAO.

Anyway can't wait. Lots of new faces to meet, old faces to see again and faces to go with blogs and emails. So exciting. No wonder I can't sleep. Its the excitement of scrapcamp. Nothing to do with the stress of having the house on the market, cleaning all the time and still not having found anything to buy. HO HUM!! Come on fate. Work your magic LOL

Those of you going to scrapcamp - see you in 2 sleeps. Those that can't make it - will report all the juicey behaviour when I get home. Promise LOL Nic?? Hope you have those lacey pink knickers packed LMAO

c u

OK you fellow scrapcampers!!

5 more sleeps till fun fun fun!! I am so NOT organised even tho I have every intention of being organised LOL Well today was spent organising our table 'p' party. Watch out all you campers!!!!!!! We are going to blow away!! lol Now that will get a few of you thinking. Anyway it is going to be fun and I can't wait.

Busy busy weekend house hunting and realising that there isn't much out there at the moment!! eeeeeeeekkkkkkkk could be interesting LOL Nic can you get hubby to make that letterbox of yours just a little bit bigger?? Might need somewhere to camp LMAO

I really really need to scrap tonight. Jess is finally getting better and slept most of last night, so not sure if it is sleep or scrap that I really need to do tonight. LOL

Off to play candyland

How did that happen??

Came home from Kindy this afternoon and there was a real estate sign on the fence!! Guess that means we are moving. LOL Yep we listed last night. Now we just have to find a buyer for our lovely home, find another lovely home, pack up etc etc etc Oh and the cleaning!!!!!!! I can feel the adrenilan rush already LOL So if you know of anyone who wants to buy my place, let me know. I love my curtains in the bedroom tho. Do you think they would notice if I slipped them in a packing box?? LOL Need a new challenge. Hubby is sick of cleaning the garage every weekend since we finished the outside of the house. Seems hes not big on cleaning windows lol cause that would sure keep him busy. Well it should be interesting to say the least.

Right what else has been happening. Oh yeah it got freezing cold (and I mean turn the fire on first thing in the morning freezing cold!!) so we are currently making a lovely dent in the firewood pile. That should be a nice weekend job for hubby LOL

Both kids have been sick, colds, croup etc etc. But seem to be on the mend now. Oh and the tooth fairy kindly made a visit. Now we are just waiting for the really crooked, sticky outy tooth at the front to fall out.

Oh and I have been asked to design a page so will link it when I have worked out what I am going to do LOL Quite frightening as the only time I have been published was a workshop challenge in FK some time ago. mmmmmmmm I tend not to submit cause I just don't like rejection LOL

Not long till fun fun fun, need to find my chocolate stash, hot water bottle and the sleeping bag. Oh and the diet coke LOL Yolande's job is to bring the pink knickers LMAO

Off house hunting I go.

Another sausage sizzle

has come and gone and hopefully that will be it for me for a while. It never rains on sausage sizzle days, but today for some reason it was gross!! LOL Even the principal said he can only remember one other wet sausage sizzle. Not fun at all. Thanks to the lovely ladies who helped to cook, lay out bread, squeeze sauce and hand out sausages. We cooked 550 sausages today!! Now that is alot LOL I then had to go back to school to clean all the dishes and chase up a few things. So it feels like this is the first time I have sat and managed to take a breath all day (and sneak a piece of chocolate - I think I was in chocolate depravation)

And to top it all off I could see all these messages from the forum I am on and couldn't find the time to sit and read them. LOL How sad is that?????? But I did managed to get my hair cut this afternoon. It has been about six months and it feels so much better. Now I just need to find the time to put through some 'natural-hiding-the-grey' colour lol and I will be feeling like a new person.

Ok so I did this huge big blog entry

and somehow it got lost in cyberspace. LOL Nothing very exciting. Just a 'ticking off' things from the 'to do' list LOL

We had such a beautiful day that I just had to wash absolutely everything, including the inside of the house. The only thing that didn't get done was the outside of the windows and well.........that can just wait. I did suggest a few times that I needed to get that done but hubby was ignoring me or not receiving the subtle hints LOL

It was so nice we took the girls on a HUGE walk. Its so great now that Isobel can ride without the training wheels and she can now ride for longer distances. We ended up at school and somehow I have volunteered for helping cooking indian food on Tuesday. Not sure how that happened and what the heck are the teachers lurking around school on a Sunday for!!!!!!!!! lol We also stopped at an open home just down the road on the way back. Huge house. Will be interesting to see what it goes for. The main thing I didn't like was the oven. Not big enough to even put a roast chicken in that one LOL The rest was nice tho. So wish we had put different carpet down in this house. LOL

Nice relaxing family day at home. I think I am almost ready for Monday. Almost!!

c u

Hello is this thing working

I'm a love a lot carebear LOL

Thanks Nic (now how do you link again???) ah well check out Nics link at the side of my blog and go see what kind of carebear you are LOL Something silly to do at 11pm at night, waiting for hubby to come home from watching the ANZAC test. Did we win btw?? He hasn't really surfaced yet LOL

Off scrapping today and I can't wait. Its my sanity day. The day that I do things just for me, when I want, eat what I want, while looking at pictures of my little darhlings and wondering what to do with them LOL (the pics I mean)

Breakfast, then pack.

c u

And then it happened

Yep!! We all knew it was going to happen and I had backed up as much as possible, saved all my pics to disc (most importantly) and crossed my fingers that I hadn't missed anything. Well Tuesday it crashed, big flashing screens, trying to continually restart etc. So off to the shops I race and meet hubby. And there on the shelf is my brand new, sparkling, fandangled, did I say NEW, fast computer!! 'That one please' I said. Then it was home to unpack and try to get it up and running (email included) before the school run, picking up extra kids and feeding them dinner, and before I had to start work in the evening. What a fantastic boss I have and told me to take the night off.

I am enjoying my new computer, getting used to Windows XP and where to find things. Also I love the speed. I can whizz around the internet at lightening speed. Did I mention that I love the speed??!!

Still haven't copied everything over, and have found that I have missed or incorrectly saved a whole pile of things, but my photos are safe and so is my journalling file.

So we are up and running, trying to remember passwords and site address. Oh and BTW I have lost all of my email addresses so I appologise if you don't hear from me. Just flick me a quick email if you wouldn't mind.

Right off to play Candyland and then it is bed time for the girls.
