It's raining........

........I suppose that is the end of our summer?! Schools starts a week tommorrow, part of me is looking forward to it, as it brings some order to my day, it means I have to be organised & get dressed etc, but the bigger part of me will miss having Megan around all day. She'll only be going for the mornings but from Jan she'll be full time, how did that happen? Shes my baby she isnt supposed to go to school for a long time!! Keelys going to miss her loads, I think she has really enjoyed having her big sis at home to play with, it certainly has brought her out of herself, shes walking & talking now, not a baby any more!!

Have spent the morning working my way through the mountain of washing that was about to overtake the house! The only problem is that there is now a mountain of ironning that needs doing! But not today!! Just have to change my bedding & make dinner & Im done for the day. Yay!!

I did get to scrap the other day, did a DLO of us whilst we visited Legoland for Megans birthday, cant post a pic of it as the camera has gone AWOL!! So instead will try to post a pic of the LO I entered for the Kraft Stop DTL (See above) My DD really is a Diva!! Dont know who she gets it from??

Also made my 1st mini book/album from scratch at the weekend, for my dads birthday, but as I was so unorganised I forgot to take photos! So will get some & post at a later date!

Anyway, back to the housework...........

Need To Scrap!!!!!!

I really need to scrap, haven't had the time to do anything for over a week now & it's driving me crazy. Everytime I think I'll go & scrap, something else needs doing, the kids want something, or Im just too tired & can't get my brain into gear........so Im setting myself a challenge.

Im going to log off the pc, get everything I need to do urgently done in the next hour, i.e cleaning, getting myself & the kids ready, we shall have lunch & then we are going to go out, I shall 'multi task', which means I'll take them to the park & libary, & I'll let Megan bring her new scooter, but on the way back we'll pop to the supermarket & post office so i can get the things I need to do done. I will get dinner organised early, make sure all thewashing up etc is done right away afterwards, then when the kids are in bed, I can switch off & scrap away to my hearts delight!!

Next time I blog, I will have something to show for it!!

Catch Up

Its August already?? Where has this year gone? Had a busy weekend, eldest DDs birthday, so lots of shopping had to be done, visit to Legoland squeezed in, birthday party to prepare for, friends DDs 1st birthday party to go to................no wonder Im tired!! Haven't done any scrapping either, feeling very uninspired at the minute. Will transfer all the weekends pics from the camera to the pc in a minute, maybe looking at them will inspire me to scrap??

Spent yesterday cleaning the whole house, was supposed to visit a friend but she was unwell so that has been postponed till next week. Hate cleaning, but am loving how nice the house is looking right now, lets see how long that lasts!! Just trying to work my way throught the huge pile of washing that is threatening to engulf my house!! Once that is done there will be a lovely pile of ironing to tackle.......how fun is my life!!

Maybe once that is all done, I might have time to participate in the cyber crop that is being run on the UKScrappers site this week, some of the classes look great, might be exactly what I need to find some inspiration!!
