Addicted to Books & Digiscrapping

Hi there! It seems like only yesterday that I posted last - umm right it WAS only yesterday! Well I managed to take my photo for the day this morning so I am all up-to-date now. It's a great feeling. It was nice to be on the computer today, not like yesterday! It was just so hot and humid here that I kept sticking to my bamboo tablet - YUCK! Thankfully last night a cool change came through and it rained all night! Lots of thunder too which was weird - normally we get afternoon storms but hardly ever thunder in the middle of the night and in the early morning! I'm not going to complain though its lovely and cool. Ok I'm rambling so I'll just post my Project page and get on with it ........... Credits - Designs by Leora I finished a page for Cherpea Designs aka Cheryl today - she is a wonderfully patient and lovely Designer who puts up with my inability to be a good and productive CT member - so now I'm only a week behind for my CT scrapping and I can't wait to fi...

Wow it has been just crazy around my place this last week! Going back to work for me wasn't as bad as I thought it might be and I was actually happy to be back!! The kids are getting their routines sorted out although Tasha needs to work on the fact that year 3 has more homework than she is used to, but I am confident that things will settle down. She is now learning Piano with Bella's old Piano teacher and seems to really enjoy it and on Wednesdays she now does tennis after school Bella's netball team made the semi finals and the girls were just thrilled! The coaches are pretty excited too and say we have a good chance to bring it home this year - that remains to be seen but I am thrilled for Bella - to get to the Semies in her first season of Netball. Her playing has really improved with the support and encouragement of her great coaches! So you can see it has been all go but in between all that running around I managed to finish my week 5 P365 and do a couple of pages f...

I have had a lovely quiet day with a little bit of housework and a whole lot of computer time. The kids had a huge sleep in after a big week back at school and they have been happily playing together (!!! wow that hardly ever happens) and now its time to have Pizza Capers for dinner - yum yum! But before that I just wanted to post quickly with a new page I made today using Cheryl's (aka Cherpea Designs) lovely Sea Dreams kit which is available here at Two Little Pixels Beach Bella Credits - here Ok I'm off now - the pizza smells delicious and I'm hungry! I know its a flying post but there isn't much more to say - oh except ............... my friend Deb won the last Digi Dare with her super cool Dear Abbey Cocoa Puffs page! Woot!!! WTG Deb! Catch you later!

Well we are back from our wonderful week away and already we are stressed and back into the real world as if it never really happened! I have the photos though and the memories of the balmy nights and brilliant sunny days to remind me of the good times - ahhh feel the serenity! The school year has started and my girls are back into the grind already. It is a big year for them both - with Bella starting High School and Tasha being all alone at school without her sister being there to help her. Bella has settled in to High School beautifully and thinks all her teacher are amazing and awesome! In fact awesome and amazing have featured strongly in any of her conversations about school in the past week. She has even started getting the bus - which for her is a huge deal as she has never ever caught public transport in her life on her on before EVER! Tasha on the other hand was freaking out about going back to school and now that she is back has settled back perfectly well, she has found th...

Just popping in to say bye as we are on the way out the door for our annual beach escape - I'll be back next week with lots of photos and a catch up post. The best thing about the holiday (apart from the sun, sea and sand!) is that I will have no end of inspiration for my P365! I am still going along well and I am keeping on top of my photo editing so all I need to do when i get back is pop the photos in the template - easy peasy! Before I go I have to tell you about the new template challenge and the new Ohh Ahh Whats in the Pickle Jar Challenges that have just started at Pickleberrypop! If you are looking for some inspiration you cant go past these! This month the hostess with the mostest is Armina! It's a great challenge And Pat the Pickle has a fab new challenge and you could win a $10 GC to the store just by playing along!! Ok the car's all packed, the kids are jiggling up and down in excitement and hubby is honking the horn - check you later!

LOL I don't suppose there would be many people who read my blog who remember the old eighties LPs like 1980 with a bullet, sorry that was inspiration for a post title today for some reason? I feel a little silly today. That could be because I have loads to do before we head off for our annual beach escape and its making me a bit crazy-loco! I have to finish getting the girls ready for school and their books all covered, I have to make my list for the coast so I don't leave anything behind, I have to pack, I have to take my P365 photo for today and tidy up because my SIL is arriving for an over night visit on her way back up to Townsville! Eeek I might just sit here for a minute and breath and relax a little bit .................... ahhhhh. OK before I race off and tackle the list I want to share with you my first two pages of my 2010 P365 as I resolved to do (see I'm a good girl aren't I?). I am filled with enthusiasm for the project again mainly due to my friend Carol...
