creating and writing

Yes not a lot of creating going on here - a little maybe! As always work seems to get in the way! still have to earn some money I suppose until I win that lotto - NO you can't win it first I have first dibs lol.

I did create this minibook thingy (techy term there) for valentines day - sometimes I hate doing these things cos it becomes very very hard trying to create a valentines project without going way over the top. so I did try to make it humourous (not sure if I succeeded) But umm with all that red and hey you gotta have hearts don't you?? Anyway hence the title "and now for something completely valentines" a very loose Monty Python reference.

 

and of course one of my favourite little picture frame charms - I think this is my last one - I wonder if 7 G's still makes them? although I have made so many over the years maybe I should move on to something new!

 

I seem to have forgotten since I started blogging the all importance of watching what you say here too as it is such a public place. Now I haven't really said anything I don't want others to know, however I hadn't told Sian about the possibility of going to Sydney next year as yet as it is all so up in the air I didn't really want to broach it until I had at least made up my mind, which won't be until at the earliest August. She has been using the internet a bit more lately and somehow found her way onto my blog. I forget that some of her friends have scrapping mums and I think maybe one of her friends sent her the link. So last night she approached me with a tear in her eye asking what it was all about. As you can imagine this is NOT how I wanted her to find out about it - must have scared her quite a bit.

To her credit she listened pretty calmly to it all and seems ok with it for now. And even more so this morning she came to me and said - if you need to do it and it will make you happy mum then you should go. Thanks  so much for your blessing sweetheart!

It seems that I have more people around me that are worried about my happiness than I know - I should cherish that thought.

What a blessing Sian is! Such a mature and thoughful response to such a difficult question. Many adults aren't able to put their needs aside for what may benefit someone they love. Girl, you have my vote!!!
