Work Work Work

This week ive been at work more than if I was full time!!  Day off today but back in tomorrow (although ive been in for a couple of hours earlier!).  Managed one layout this week .....

I have done another but got to put some finishing touches to it.  As soon as I'd added the flowers I thought to myself "oh I didnt want to do it like that", I was going to cut out flowers from matching paper screw up in a ball, layer and add a  brad but completely forgot what i'd planned!!! DEEERRRRRR   Sooo what im going to do is do a similar layout of Emy and see if that works!

Not much else happening here, sunny but still raining, a quiet day in Horsford!!

Projects to finish are: -

ATC Tin brag book
About Me CJ
More layouts with my new kits
Two mini books for a friend too!!

Probably take me months to complete but hey thats scrapbooking.

UKS Blogger Update

Wednesday Blogger.

When you were a child, what did you want to be/do when you 'grew up'? Why? Did it happen? If not, why not? Is it too late? Were there other unfulfilled goals?
I never really wanted to BE anything, just good at whatever I did end up doing.  Forever looking for that one job I loved doing and was good at!  I must admit I always wanted a nice house and a BMW - that has since changed to a Mazda RX8!! LOL  Now I'll settle for my hard work being recognised!

Thursday Blogger

What were some traditions from your childhood? What traditions do you hold fast to now (new or old)? Are there any traditions would you like to maintain but don’t? If you have children or plan to have children, are there traditions you would like to pass on to them?
Family traditions for me mean Christmas together, parties at my Nan's house with real fire and chestnuts.  Sundays were ALWAYS roast beef, and I was always the last one up the table.  Lots of Summer days at the caravan in Hemsby. 

San Fran C

Friend calls me today and tells me they are going to San Fran for 16 days NOT FAIR can I come too!!!?????

If you notice below one of my fav songs of all time is Sitting on the Dock of the Bay by Ottis Reading.  Friend informs me today he's going to SFC and going to actually SIT on THE dock of THE BAY!!  How fab is that!!!!!    Dion, have a fab time (if you read this in time)  wish I SOOOO was coming with you, next time you could at least invite me lol!!!!!!  Take care sweetie!!  Love you lots!!

Loads of stressful POOP at work today but we coped !!   Yet another day tomorrow - must SELL something to keep continuous stream of commission in!  Wish me luck!!

Just another day...

Quick post before the mad rush to get out to work.

UKS Blogger Spot - here goes two days in one!!

Name:	Jane
Gender:	(Female)
Origin:	Hebrew
Meaning:	Gracious (NOT ME LOL), merciful, God is gracious

New techniques i'd like to try - all of them I'm a scrapbooking sponge, just want to learn.  I'd love to be able to dress my layouts up, add more stash, make them much more busy and less simple.  Jennie, if you have a course in this that would be fab LMAO!!!!

Over and out till ive finished work, really have to finish a CJ and want to do some more with my fabo kits. 

Alison - we never got round to (too much chat!!) sorting out the club CJ's!!  Give me any that ive not done and i'll do them before the next meet on the 19th!!

Day started by making this paint can, bit of a rush job as I had to do before getting to work!

John (our lister at work) and his wife had a baby girl Sunday morning, her name is Harriet Darcy and I've seen a photo and she's gorgeous!!

Work today consisted of lots of chatter and not much selling - bit of a break from the norm!!  Busy day tomorrow though to catch up!! LOL

Following on from the whole 80's - look at me at 14 lark I thought you'd like a taste of the era, so ive changed the vid (below) to none other than the fabulous Madonna, my fav back in 1985/6!!

More rain today, seems summer is well and truely over!  Which means it's time to concentrate on Emillie and Oliver's 4th Birthday in October - oh and then there is Christmas - sorry to scare you all !!!!! LOL

Crop Day!

Saturday was Crop day, had a fab day at Alison-Lee's crop in Thorpe Marriott, Norwich.  Made such a nice change to going to work!! LOL  Managed one layout with the latest Jenni Bowlin kit but cannot get a decent scan or photo of it - only this ....

Did lots of chatting and giggling so had a lovely day, even the downpour on the way home didn't seem to dampen things iykwim!!

Work today, boo hoo, I'll be ok once I get there im sure!  I have one day off then its 6 days at work - just think MONEY MONEY am I'm sure I'll get through it! LOL

Have my Scrapagogo kit also and am hoping to have a play either later today or Monday in between getting the laundry done so I have a few suits to wear this week.  I did try a layout the other day but the papers just didn't seem to fit, colours were right but there was just something wrong with it, going for the pink set (if you have the kit you'll know what I mean!!) and trying another set of phots.  I'll get there I'm sure!!

Friday Blogger spot on UKS was if you could go back to when you were 14 what advice would you give yourself see here, this is my photo of me at 14 VERY EMBARASSING!! LOL  Check out that back perm!!!  Whoo hoo - this would have been about 1986!!

1) Do not have what you consider at the time to be a very trendy hair cut, in 15 years time they NEVER ARE!!!

2) Listen to your PARENTS and think a little about how they feel when you come back from your friends late!!!!

3) Make the most of the time you have, once you get out to work you won't have any!!

Not posted for a while, managed one layout this week and that was only because I went to a local crop on Monday with Roundacres!!

 

Finished two more Orders this week too :-

__________________________________________________________

Been at work since Tuesday, have today off to go to Alison's crop in Thorpe Marriott, totally looking forward to some scrapping/chatting time away from work etc.  Sunday it's back to work, Mon off then in until the next Monday - phew!!  Good job I love the job!

Saturday Off!!!

My first Sat off in a while so I celebrated with an 8.15 start to the day and not much else LOL  Manage to make a box and book for Scrapfairies Design Team Tryouts (not that I think ive any chance only that Sam the owner is a team member on UKS!!)
