HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Had a fun day with the kids scooping pumpkins, decorating the living room, cooking gruesome food





The boys went off trick or treating for about an hour they came home with lots of goodies, we played bob for the apple and who can eat a doughnut without licking lips or using your hands. we had a good giggle

Feeling a bit delicate

Well i went to see the wurzels last night! What a laugh, i drank way too much and had a good old dance.....'I'm a cider drinker!' anyway came home ended up sleeping in the bathroom, i got fed up having to keep getting up from my bed to get to the toilet! why is it when you are out you never feel that drunk, until you get in your bed then that is when it really hits you, the room starts spinning and then you've got to try and walk/run to the bathroom and last night i was doing a brilliant impression of a pin ball i bounced myself off a couple of my door frames as i tried to get to the loo! so today, i am feeling a little worse for ware LOL i know completely self inflicted. i am going to crawl back to my sofa and nurse my poor bruised head and tender tummy maybe ask my hubby to make me a nice bacon sarny!

Lady of Leisure

I have the day off work so i decided that i really need to get my finger out and make a start on my entry for a Lurkers CJ, it has to be completed by the 3rd November. Made a rough sketch of what i wanted to do last night.

Anyway today started off very leisurely, Jason made me egg on toast for breakfast (in bed i might add!), Ryan bought me up a mug of coffee and my simple scrapbooking mag that had plopped through my front door - talk about being spoilt! I eventually peeled myself from my pit. With sketch in hand made a start, funny how you have a plan in mind, then ideas pop in/out, the project starts to evolve and resembles nothing like the original plan it is still not completely stuck down so i am sure it will get added to!

Little Lewis has been off truckin with his dad this week. i am bringing him back home tonight, think that both Colin and Lewis have probably had enough of each other by now having to live in such a small area. Also, Colin wanted his new mobile phone that arrived yesterday it has a 3.2 mega pix camera!

Must go to town to get an outfit for Friday as i am going to see the Worzels with my friend.

Ciao for now :)

Fun Scrapping













I have done three LOs for the Ali Edwards challenges that Ann(i)e has been doing, she is on challenge 13 now so i have a bit of catching up to do. My third one is done but i need to put some embellishments on to it to complete, but i am not sure what yet i will know when i seen them. Also when you get two minutes go check out this new challenge site Pencillines I think i will try and give this a go too :D

Off to my local crop ModScraps in Bristol tomorrow, i always look forward to going, i just love spending time with my scrap buddies a chance to sit back relax with no worries. I have a working head, family head, friend head and my fave my scrapping head so tomorrow that will be well and truly screwed on, gosh I sound like a right Worzel Gummage LOL

Well it is Friday the 13th do you believe it is an unlucky day?

catch up soon

These are the two classes that Elsie Flannigan taught at camp, today i added the journalling (i am terrible at putting the journalling onto my LOs i have so many that need it to be done) the kite one isn't completing the same as Elsies i added an extra photo changed the layout of the cards round abit and added ink, but hey, that's what its about in it! i did enjoy taking the classes, Elsie is very unique sort of scrapper she is confident about her work and is passionate about what she does - i admire that! i will definitely be using some of the techniques again in the Gaye Simpson way :)

I am in an odd mood at the mo. You know when it is spring your supposed to do the 'spring clean'(never do it though LOL) well i am feeling that i really need to do this now but a winter clear-out! the whole house feels cluttered and its getting on me nerves. Colin said he would help me at the weekend so hopefully this time next week i will feel more cleansed :D

I Did Some Scrapping
I have been wanting to scrap but i really didn't know what or were to start so i thought i would get on with one of my classes from Scrapcamp made a start late afternoon completed it late last night after i watched 'Silent Hill' I am quite pleased with it but no matter how i try to angle stuff i just cant bring myself to leave if so i will have to just come to terms with the fact i am definitely a straight line scrapper.

Lewis went to a pirate themed birthday party yesterday he stayed in his costume all of two minutes as they had a bouncy castle. He came home happy and excited to go through his party bag

Back to reality


Nothing to blog about.. back to the normal routine of work and housework, yuk! its only now that i am just feeling not quite so tired obviously my stamina isn't quite as good as it use to be! i have pinched another thumbnail from someones photobox (pretty sure it was Kirsty Wisemans - thanks for sharing) one of everyone who was at camp :)

i know i have been tagged i haven't forgotten but i am having trouble thinking of 5 things that are weired about myself or my pets because trying to narrow it down to individual stuff is extremely difficult cos i is just a tab bit strange LOL though one thing i have noticed recently about myself is that i really cant sit still for more than 5 mins i have to get up and do some thing whether it is constructive or not. that became very evident at camp this weekend gone i would sit to get on with some scrapping and before i new it i was up out of my chair off to something random. so that is one

anyway who can i tag well i am going to tag Kirsty and that will have to be it as all you peeps have already been tagged once or maybe twice :D

ciao for now

SCRAPCAMP

What a fantastic time i had, there is so much that happened and to try to type it all is really hard. i laughed so hard that i cried :D ate far too much, had very little sleep, got jaw ache from talking too much, got very little scrapping done, i met up with friends, met new folk and i met a member from my team that i am in on ,UKS, Donna she is really lovely. The classes were great, i took four taught by Elsie Flannigan, Giselle Homer, Kirsty Wiseman and Mandy Anderson.
