oh.my.word.

I’ve been drinking that much strong, Italian coffee We have had the most atrocious few weeks sleepwise and coffee is just about the only thing keeps Simon and I going these days. This last week has been particularly trying as I’ve had deadlines and Fifth Avenue stuff to deal with and Matthew has been […]

Well thank goodness for public holidays! The last few days have been very um ‘full on’ for me and I’ve been a bit overwhelmed with the added demands on my time, in addition to the usual stuff I have to deal with. The result? Certain things fell by the wayside. Not good for the perfectionist […]

Another week bites the dust. Is it just me, or is this year just flying by? I can’t believe it’s almost the end of April I am so excited - we got our Snap & Scrap CT assignments for May & June and it’s a-gonna be fun! April’s newsletter is about […]

Yep, I know - I deserve an award for getting it done so soon, eh?
Right, here we go:
The ‘2′ is a brass door number I found in a store LOL I just used normal silver brads and dimension glaze to fix it to the cover. The ‘hinges’ are just bits of […]

So the jewellery show was a success…I crawled into bed in the early hours of Thursday morning and then tried to sleep in until 08h00. Fat chance, eh? The boys and I went about town, looking for a bed for Matthew and ended up at Maccas for our *first ever* lunch together (although Jason […]

“DADDA!” Well, I never! Aaaah well, I suppose it’s only fair when Matthew’s first word was Mama, eh? I’ll let Simon have his little moment - for now
My ‘big’ little man insisted on dressing himself this morning. Tshirt and shorts (pulled on himself) and his um…gumboots???! Who am I to […]

I’m having another late night, despite being dog-tired, because I just wanted to spend a few minutes tweaking another layout. Tweaking being the operative word Of course, I ended up starting it from scratch. I’m happier with the result, mainly because I found a lovely template to help the ol’ mojo along. So herewith, […]

Matthew and the Easter Bunny are now friends for LIFE. I’d say the hunt was a huge success. The children had heaps of fun, hunting for the chocolate eggs and carried them dutifully back to the basket, to be shared after the hunt. It was lovely seeing all the children participating in the sharing of […]
