His glands are up and he is a bit pale but still our gorgeous cheeky Josh :-) Im surprised he hasnt worked out a few of the old tricks for getting out of going to school yet.......dont worry Lyns I wont tell him........them all LOL.I am seriously missing my honey.....big time......I just dont cope well without him soppy I know but its true.He is getting all sorted for his car show he is going to......I really hope he has a great time he has put so much hard work into it.Anyway enough of me waffling on Im off to have a cuppa and read my book for a while before I go to sleep......Stephen King Dumas Key.....just started it but its pretty cool...mind you I am a BIG stephen king fan so I love all his work :-)

Yesterdays scrapping :)



These are my LO's I did yesterday after a fab day of shopping with Lyns,Morgan and Mum :) They are all for Jules blog cybercrop that is all themed around music and movies.....very cool inspiration Jules!!I have lots of bits and bobs to play with and a bear to finish but motivation would be a bonus........im feeling a bit blah today :(.....hope I havent caught that cold/flu thats going around :$ I was going to have a girly day out with Lyns and Mo today but poor little man Josh isnt well either so they are going to come for a quick visit instead :) I might make the kids a door hanger with their names after I finish the bear :)


Well we have found a solution for norty dog Kloe and her continuous barking!!!We had tried one of those zapper collars a while ago but after I picked it up and it zapped me (ouch) I decided it wasnt nice and we took it back to the rental place.......anyway we bought her one of those lemon ones that squirts smell rather than hurting her and it works a treat!!Apparently dogs dont like lemon :$ !!!Anyway she smells very lemony fresh at the moment LOL but its great that she cant bark at everything that moves :) She still "talks" (her whistling etc LOL) but she cant howl or anything.....even though she only howls when the dog next door does it....the joys of living next door to a husky LOL


Who's ready for a cybercrop??We have a great one planned at ALLCRAFTZ on the 29th of August (this Friday!!) with heaps of games and some fandabbydosey challenges to keep you all inspired!!Get those travel/day out photos ready because this will be the perfect time to use them :) I am eagerly anticipating the arrival of my goodies from ALLCRAFTZ I ordered some super cool autumn leaves stamps and heaps of bling and ~E~ still has Kaisercraft papers for $1 a sheet.....yep you read it right $1 !!!!Bargain central especially for me who LOVES Kaiser!!!There is also a clearance sale going on and the jackpot bonus is now $100 so go on over to ALLCRAFTZ and check out the clue,make a purchase and pay the "how low can you go?" game for the chance to win a cuttlebug!! and all the latest happenings at AC4U!!!My first class date will be announced very,very soon too!I am soooooo excited!!In fact there will be lots of cool classes happening!Hannah and I have been busy creating some new things for our classes which will be run every Friday night :) Lots and lots happening over there at the moment :)
