Lost little "Socks"

Yesterday evening my poor baby "socks" was killed on the road. There seems to be a pattern the last few weeks, first george, and now socks. We are all devasted as with all our pets they are part of our family. Can't believe he is gone, he had such a lovely nature.

A princess

Todays make, these papers are to die for (aren't they all) They are so gorgeous the pics don't do them any justice! This LO didn't need much as the paper is so beautiful!

Halloween has come early

This is todays make! These papers are to die for I bought them a few weeks ago and they were so yummy I didn't want to use them, coming at them with me scissors was a mortal sin I reckoned! So I went and got another set that I can keep ( I know I know I admit to being a paperaddict!) So this is what happened when I got the scissors and scrappyglue out.

Rugby widow - part 2

Phew! I have one contained in room with his star wars toys and other is down having a nap - exhale! My blackmail notion backfired on me big time, they where bouncing off the walls, maybe I shouldn't have bought those sweets!

In a desparate attempt to bring a touch of France to my day, seeing as OH is rambling around Bordeaux, I bought a lovely bottle of chardonnay (and yes I restrained myself to only buying one), that is as we speak cooling nicely in my fridge and waiting in anticipation for the kids bed time to roll around.....................is it 8 o'clock yet??????
Where at 8pm I will be running at the fridge like a woman possessed with wine opener in tow. So in the mean time I am going to finish off those craft projects I have left scattered all around the place half done! A Bientot!

Rugby Widow

God it has been a week since I last blogged, shame! I have become a rugby widow offically as of 8 o'clock this morning...............he has left me so he can travel to france to see the match, he does deserve it I have to say. Woohoo!!! No only messing, I will miss him and the upside is I can now craft to my hearts content. Not that I am not able to when he is here, it just makes me feel less quilty now that he is gone for a little bit, I can now visit my craft desk without feeling like I have abandoned him alone on front of the telly.

The down side is I have been left alone to control my 2 children & entertain them, am I capable of that??????
I feel some blackmail coming on! Will report back and let you now if I am still of sound mind and body later................but I do doubt it.

Funny fact's.................................

f you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced
enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.

produced

Look what arrived......................

Woke up yesterday morning to find a little delivery of kittens in my en-suite!! Ahhhhh!! Jess (mammy cat) set herself up in the basket with not a wimper or peep out of her. We kind of knew she was expecting but only in the last week or so. It was like Santy was after coming, but as much as I love my cats, I can't be the owner of 9 of them now! So, I will have to part with some of them when the time comes, god it is gonna break my heart, will try not to get too attached.

And, yes one of them looks like little "george" so he will be staying!
