Well I’m back, I haven’t been away for long, but for me it seems like AGES. Life has been very hectic of late. Hubby is busy spraying summer weeds. They have set up this new fang dangled sprayer that can sense when there is green matter to spray. So in the past they would go out in the evening & start spraying, fill up the tank over & over again throughout the night, but now with this new machine, it only sprays when it “sees” something green…..so they are saving time, chemical & money……I’m likin’ it. The only problem is that I am staying up till all hours of the night to wake hubby so he can go out to work. We tried the alarm clock, but both slept through it…..I mean it’s not as if you are meant to wake up at 1am after going to bed at 10pm, that’s just when I’m getting into a good sleep ![]()
I’m trying oh so hard to be a “nice mum” & so far it is working. The kids know I’m tired & they realise Robby is tired too, he’s only getting about 3 hours at a time a couple of times a day, so that’s not good ![]()
But it is nearly over. Ok so while I’ve been up & waiting for the time to pass, no I haven’t been stamping…..naughty I know, but I’m honestly too tired to put full effort in, so I’ve been reading my Sookie Stackhouse books & watching the True Blood dvd’s I have. True Blood is the tv series that is based on the Sookie Stackhouse novels. I read these books while we were on holidays & I decided to start them again, I really enjoy reading them.
So blah blah blah……ok that’s enough of my babbling for now
Today I’m going to show you the wonderful parcel I received in the mail.
Kim( my secret sister sending to me) spoilt me rotten over Christmas…..I was actually pleasantly surprised becuase I received this after the New Year, with school holidays I only collected my mail every couple of weeks, so Christmas was spread out for me….yippee!!!
This is Kim’s Christmas card
Lovely notebook….I have te honest with you….I’m not keen on the Kaleidoscope dsp in the Summer Mini but I just love these colours & the butterflies
Gorgeous bookmark
A gorgeous stationery set
Isn’t this set just STUNNING!!!!!
I love all of it & I have been meaning to make a set myself, but just haven’t gotten to it, this has definitely inspired me to have a go
THANKS SO MUCH KIM
I will be back tomorrow with some more creations…..so till then, keep smiling
