I have been busy offline..mainly cardmaking! I have started my Christmas cards early this year ( for a change)

The cuttlebug has been brought out and armed with a handful of new embossing folders I have been a busy bee..well not a hyperactive type one, more of a sedate and rambling around type of bee..anyway.

Will bought me the new Kelley Armstrong release “Frostbitten” and it is on it’s way from Amazon. I can’t wait to get a dose of Clay..hmm yeah Clay *coughs* And I have just purchased the new Lora Leigh offering ” Heat Seeker”  Paul normally posts the next day,so it will be here for Friday.

We have all been hit by a bout of  the cold. All of us. Trouble started the ball rolling and on his second day of School, he brought home the cold..lovely.. Of course I was next in line, then daddy and lastly came Bubble..We all got rid of it within two days , but then Trouble started another round and we all got re-infected.

Trouble has also developed a rather harsh barking cough that has kept him at home since last Friday. We thought we would let him go back tomorrow but after hearing that little episode he has just blurted out I don’t think I want him to go back just yet.

My Mp3 player is now fully charged ,so I’m heading off to bed.

I have just lost the plot when it comes to this site. I just get sidetracked with other things online (namely shopping) and before I know it my online time is over and done with, time for beddie byes.
Like, right now I am watching YouTub videos! I am gobsmacked at most of the US’ers craft spaces- Like the one I am am watching right now? It is a huge room about 15×20 foot and is kitted out like a craft superstore!!
She most have more money than sense!!
She also became a Stampin ‘ Up demonstrator and dropped about $3,000 on her first personal order. Makes my teensy $60 dollar orders look pathetic!

I have been getting my Christmas 2009 stash ready and I will be making my cards soon- go me for being organised for once in a lifetime eh?
Anyways, I have done it again and time has runaway for this evening

Stop the world I want to get off..

Honestly, I don’t know where to  begin. Firstly, Trouble started Year One on Monday (14th) Both Will, Bubble and I dropped him in, we saw his classroom and spoke with both his new teacher and the classroom assistant, both seemed nice enough and very child orientated which was reassuring. Will had to leave within 20 seconds as he broke down and didn’t want to let Trouble see that Daddy was upset. I held it together-barely- and settled him  into class with a hug and a promise that we would collect him very soon.

As we left we stared in through the windows, Trouble looked a little shell shocked but wasn’t crying. We got back to the car and urgh, it was messy enough. Will was quietly sobbing himself into a puddle ,whilst I was trying to pretend to Bubble that Daddy was laughing. He didn’t buy it. We headed to Tescos and bought nearly £120 worth of I could not tell you, just to pass the time. It was the worst three hours of my life..

Trouble was allowed to choose lunch because it was his day, he selected Chicken Tortillas , which I made in a blur of tear and snot.

It was dreadful.Not the Tortillas mind , it was all good there.

Aside from all that malarkey, I have been buying tons Christmas stash- look at me getting organised in making my Christmas cards this year!! It is a first because usually it is a halfhearted last minute effort on my part!

I’m just feeling ,oh I don’t know how to describe it -maybe I need a pick me up ? I think I should head off and play some Online Bingo? My luck isn’t the best at the moment mind you , but uh I can’t find anything to do that is grabbing my attention at the moment, even Face-book is boring me silly!
