Project 365 - Jan 26 to Jan 31

-
Ok so I'm back on track with my Sunday posting now and I have even scrapped a page for the PBP CT so I have had a very productive day. Now all I need to do is finish my article for the next newsletter and I will be feeling pretty good LOL

Here are this weeks photos for your perusal:

Day 26
Here are my kids - made in Australia and growing strong with security and freedom - we really are the lucky country!

Day 27
Yahoooooo it's back to school tomorrow, the last of the books are packed in the backpacks tonight, the lunch boxes are placed on the kitchen bench and the water bottles are filled and in the fridge! Bring it on!!

Day 28
OK people this is what happens when you start your new job on the same day that the kids go back to school - you ask, very nicely mind you, if your husband would very much mind taking a photo of the kids before he takes them to school - not a big ask really. But what happens when you get home to inspect the photos - you find that there is only ONE photo and the kids both had their eyes closed. Now I am a patient woman, really I am but I ask you!! ONE photo!! *sigh*

Day 29
We have a caramel lover in our family, not a caramel TART lover mind you, just caramel! So how do you eat just caramel from a caramel tart?? With a spoon!

Day 30
Now I have to admit that I have always envied ladies who lunch, it was always something that seemed so luxurious, so decadent. Now that I only work Tues, Wed & Thursday's I now have two days off a week for a little me time. So when my bestie J suggested lunch as she was on holidays - I was so excited. I am now a lady who lunches LOL (admitedly it has only been the once so far!)

Day 31
I wonder why I bought the Playstation?? So I could watch Tasha lounge on the couch gripped by her obsession? I wanted to make the photo a bit more edgy so I ran a lightroom action called Dream on it - I like how it came out.

Well that's me for another week - happy snapping fellow addicts!!

ADSR Week 2

-

YAY I have finished this weeks challenge nice and early this time, mainly because I am off work and also because I will be away down the Coast for a few days from Saturday so I was trying to clear my to-do list before I start packing. Luckily for me my wonderful hubby has arranged for me to have limited internet access while we are away so I won't miss any of my challenges so as long as we keep getting checked off we will be eligible to go in the draw for the grand prize. Deb and I had decided that the prize didn't matter it was the race that matters most but we both (I think) breathed a sigh of relief when hubby said he could fix it for me to keep racing ROFL! So here are this week's ADSR pages... Challenge 3 was from Gotta Pixel and it involved finding the first LO you have uploaded into a gallery and re-do it, using the same photo and the same text. I re-did the first LO in my DST gallery Baby Mine and here is my new page - Baby Mine Credits here Challenge 4 was a fair...

And here I go ....

Well I have made a start on my first resolution and I have been taking my photo-a-day. I am probably only going to post on Sundays though because it is a bit of a pain uploading the photos daily blah blah blah so I thought that once a week is plenty. It's pretty quiet here on Sundays so I am hoping that this will be a good time to post the weeks photos. I am going to use the gorgeous photo frames from Deb's fabulous 365 Challenge over at Pickleberrypop - if you like them you can get them too by going here or clicking on the image :) So here are my first four days for my Project 365 - I hope I can make the distance this time. As to the other parts of my new Years resolutions I have to say i am off to a pretty good start there too. I spent some time on the phone to one of my girlfriends which resulted in me going out to see the Twilight movie with her for a nice girls time (with our eldest girls but that is ok). I LOVED the movie and I really can't wait for the rest of them ...

Fabulous Friday!

I never used to appreciate Fridays as much as I should have until I stopped working them! Since starting my new job and only doing three days a week, I can tell you Fridays are now officially my favourite day of the week - followed swiftly by Mondays rofl! Fridays are my scrapbooking day. I catch up on my CT duties, I post around the place, I finish up pages, I update the PBP fan page on Facebook (and play some games while I'm there!), and I generally have a great time. Then a couple of hours before I have to get the kids from school I race around the house like a mad woman, cleaning, tidying, washing etc etc until the place is sorted. Sounds crazy doesn't it! Why don't I just spend the whole day cleaning, taking my time and not turning my house into an Indy race track. There is a simple answer - I don't want to hahaha! It's nuts but I like it :) I wanted to share with you some pages that I posted this week using one of our new designers at Pickleberrypop - Joyce ...
