New blogger and stuff


Well I changed over to the 'new' blogger last time but then it has taken my awhile to remember how to get back in to make another post LOL


So anyway here is the lastest artwork from Miss 4. Yep its gorgeous huh??? Its apparantly a pic of her at the farm. And yes that is the window sill in her bedroom that she has used for her artwork canvas. Needless to say that after hiding the smile on my face as she told me the story, telling her off and then trying to scrub scrub scrub with jiff most of the pic is still there. It would appear that not only did she just draw but she also pushed quite hard with her pen. Gee I am glad we bought that mini sander last year and that her room was going to be repainted. *sigh* The small artwork I found on the hall wallpaper is resisting attempts to come off tho. You see, its kinda my fault right??? I had relaxed in the last month or so and let the girls colour (pencils or crayons only) on the coffee table in the lounge or on the floor instead of always at the table or bench. Guess we are back to the table and bench then LOL


It has been a quiet week actually. Think we needed that. All the visiting family have returned back to their various countries and this weekend we are looking forward to some quite just us time. Last Sunday was spent shifting piles and piles or compacted rocks, hardened concrete (thanks concrete truck man, well my one ab thanks you lol) and shells into the bin to be taken away. We now only have the fine metal (which is comming up very easily) to move but we are going to reuse that on the path. Hubbies 'to do' list for this weekend consists of moving said fine metal, erecting my washing line (PLEASE!!!) and tiling the hearth for the fireplace. Apparently this is very easy to do *snigger* I will reserve judgment.


Hope this lovely sunny weather continues for the weekend. Oh if anyone knows how I can eat those absolutely devine peppermint marshmallow cadbury eggs without gaining any of those nasty calories please feel free to divulge your secret!! YUM

A few bricks, a couple of windows and wahhlaaaaa


Look at this!!!! Isn't it just so cool!!!!!!!!! The inside walls are all framed up too. Awesome!! And all in a week when hubby was sick, Miss 4 was sick and I was sick. OMG that had to be the worst flu bug ever!! Completely flattened us and we are still recovering, still trying to eat and drink. Great for the weight loss tho. Miss 7 has managed to hide from the bug and hopefully it will stay that way. Nasty nasty nasty.


Not much happening on the scrapping front. Infact I NEED paper. Feel like I must go shopping but am waiting for some new cbox and those fancy pants stamps are so cool. Hopefully then I will have the time and some mojo to scrap. Maybe I should pay the builder first LOL
