Just not sure …
Okay I’m a woman, I’m allowed to change my mind – it’s the law!!!
I’m just not sure about my blog – again. Having some issues with photo uploads and post layouts – in that I can’t get them the way I like them to look – which I used to find so much easier over on tuther blog.
So, I’m giving my other one a second chance – we’ll see how we get on – but you can find me back over here …

Loooooooooong Day!

Back to normality?!
Woo hoo – Scott has his uses – he came home from his skiing holiday on Sunday to be given my puter and told to sort it out – so with a bit of tinkering (and a few bashes at one point), its all back to normal! Yaaaaaay!
I’ve managed to do a bit of scrapping! I’ve almost completed a LO, which I did at Gayle’s on Friday night, but just need to finish that off – well I don’t want to over do it do I!
I also made an exploding box for my MIL for Mother’s Day – but I still need to upload the photos of that onto my puter, so will share them soon.
This morning I decided to have a trundle to John Lewis while I only had Cameron to keep control of. I fancied a nosey around at nothing in particular, and I came away with a Hama bead set for Charl, which she loves and is currently engrossed in, and some needles and wool in an attempt to learn to knit – again! My Grandma taught me when I was a lass (I still am a lass – I haven’t had surgery but you know what I mean), anyway it has been so long since I’ve picked up any needles that I’m a total beginner. I gave it a go this afternoon, but my tension is far too tight, so I need to relax that a bit – thanks Marie for the link xx
Anyway, off to sort out some tea for my monsters xx

Puter problems!
A certain little lady – hmmmm could I be talking about Charlotte, has done something to my computer. Yesterday I left her playing on the cbeebies website while I made tea (I shouldn’t have left her!), came back to see what she was doing and the computer colours have gone totally wacko. Everything is crazy and it hurts my eyes to look at it, can’t figure out how she’s done it so I’ve got to wait for Scott to get back from his ski trip before I can get it sorted out – oh well, I’ll just have to use his computer!
Kids eh!

Its been a while!
Since I last posted. I’d like to say that I’ve been busy and have lots to report, but I’ve not! I’ve been busy doing nothing much. Still not managed to do any scrapping, but I have found the instructions for the heater in the conservatory, so now that I can get heat in there in the evenings, I’m more likely to sit down at my desk and do some scrapping rather than just thinking about it or complaining that I’ve not done any!
Scott is away at the moment – he’s gone skiing with some friends for the week, so its just me and the monsters. I have got a child free weekend though. I’m off out with some of the other mums from nursery on Friday so Mum is having the kids for me on Friday and Saturday night – what will I do with myself! Shame that the Cheadle Hulme crop isn’t this weekend! Ho hum, always the way!
Hmmmm wonder if I’ll scrap tonight, or whether I’ll just think about it again ….

Lost it again
I’ve lost my mojo again, or maybe that should be my enthusiasm for anything crafty – it just isn’t happening for me. I can’t remember when I last did any scrapping – and it’s really bugging me. Maybe I’d spend some time scrapping in the evenings if the conservatory wasn’t so flippin’ cold – I’ve got a heater in there, but I’m yet to fathom out how the ‘eck you turn it on!
I also haven’t joined in with HS:MS for ages and ages. So a big kick up the bum for me and tomorrow I will attempt to join in with the prompts again and maybe I’ll try to do a bit of scrapping or find the destruction manual to the heater. Watch this space!

And again!
Changed the theme again, I’m spoilt for choice! Or maybe I’ve got a problem?!
February 17, 2008
Changed the look already!
WOW there are so many themes to play around with here – it’s fab, so expect frequent new looks – you know what I’m like – can’t leave anything alone for long.
I will do a blog header at some point, but for now, I’ve chosen this theme which is called ‘Almost Spring’ – well it is after all and with the weather that we’ve had this last week I felt it was more than appropriate.
So the half-term holidays are over – yay! Peace and quiet for 2 and half hours a morning again – I know it isn’t much, but woo hoo anyway! Will have to make sure we’re up and out of the house earlier than we got up this morning! Just a shame that we’ve all been full of colds this week, nobody has really felt up to doing much other than taking it easy.
Anyway, just because I wanted to try out uploading a pic to a post, here is the card that I made for Scott for Valentine’s Day, really pleased with how it turned out and he liked it too – well he said he did!
TTFN xx

New home!
Welcome to the ramblings new home! I fell out with my old blog – couldn’t get it to do what I wanted so I decided to teach it a lesson and moved home!
Do you think it’s upset? No, me neither!
Anyway, welcome to our new home

HS:MS – SPS
So it’s Saturday again and oh no not SPS again! But, no! When I checked out HS:MS this morning, there was a bit of a twist – today we take a pic of someone else!
Fab! Woo hoo! Happy dancing!
Last night it snowed here, and although there is hardly anything to shout about, Charlotte wanted to play outside. So, I wrapped them both up and we went outside.
That is where I took this pic of Cam (with weetabix on his nose), in our garden while he’s checking out the snow on the wall. In the background you can see Charl playing at the table – her ‘my little pony’ is playing in the snow too!
