Why do we do these things.

I was just laughing at Nics post about the cleaning frenzy.

Well ,remember the tag for the PB challenge,I stuck it to  Emily's present & drove down with it yesterday.
No one at home, except a painter was posting the keys, Oh no where was I going to leave the present, seconds earlier I could've left it inside, left it tied to the back door in the end.
Any how we got chatting & he'd just done Emily's bedroom & she was to have new furniture as well for her birthday.
Well I thought isn't that a good idea,(I've just had a birthday) so the painter ended up following me home to measure the bedroom & he's coming to paint on Monday.
Guess what I'll be doing, having a good clear out & moving furniture... also my craft room is the boxroom off my bedroom so it will be access denied.
I might manage something at the weekend, if I have everything done.
Enjoy your weekend.

Favourite cards for this year & Happy 2012 to All

After 3 attemps  at trying to get the favourite logo on top of the post & actually losing one of my favourites I'm leaving this selection & quitting before I lose any more LOl.
I've not been feeling the best & had my head over a steaming bowl, I need to go get into the party spirit now.
Have a great time whatever you do.
Best wishes for 2012

Wishing you all a Happy Christmas

Well I just finished my last card for my nephew's wife, it was all boxed & ready to go, we had a wee chat & a see you on the day, off he went..........No Picture, I was just so relieved the last one was off in time, completely forgot to get the camera out, Ah well  no worries.

Now better get some tidying up done, house badly needs a once over, some pressies still to wrap & a few snowman soups to put together along with some chocolate wallets.
All the M&S shopping done  plastics gone into meltdown & I'm not entering another one till I have to.
I don't have to think about cooking till Boxing Day as going to nephews for christmas, he does all the cooking & the men do all the clearing up, so a nice relaxing day, we just take things as they come & meal is well spread out.

Thanks to everyone who visits me & wish you a Happy christmas & a all best wishes for a happy healthy 2012.
