    Wow Rainmac that looks absolutely beautiful! I am sure your mam will love it!

    I had a fab time last night at work, I worked from 8:30-11:30 and even played some bingo ... and won!!! only £15 though cause I had to share it with someone else :( but better than nothing and I can now go and buy the card making kit I saw :D

    My leg is still really bad, so will call doctors tomorrow and try to get in to be seen tomorrow.

    Hope everyone has a fab bank holiday monday :D xx

    Rusty - well done on the win.........:T Take it easy with your leg and have a 'feet up' day today if you can

    No great plans to do anything crafty today - must sort through my hoard of 'stuff' upstairs - mums friends birthday in a fortnight and if I don't sort it out now I'll be all behind myself.

    Oh lor, now OH wants the crossword dictionary.............now where did I put it:confused:

    Found it..................relief !!

    Mary a feet up day in this house never happens, both kids are hyper 24/7 :rotfl: My aunt is coming to visit for an hour today as she has been up in scotland for the rugby so popping in as they pass.

    Thank goodness you found his crossword dictionary ;)

    Rusty -OH hasn't asked for it for so long and its falling to bits I was worried I'd thrown it out..:eek: We seem to have loads of them of different sorts so why the old tattered one was in such great need is beyond me............lol And there was me trying to find halfway decent images of snowmen - I wrote a christmas star story for grandson last year and thought I'd do one about a snowman this year..........if I don't start while its in my head I'll forget it..............lol:rotfl:

  • Scattymam What a fantastic day you had, its great when people are so kind. It just restores your faith in the human race.

    Well Done on your win Rusty... Glad you are going back to drs too.

    Rainmac I love your card,as always its beautiful. Your mum will love it,im sure.

    Mary Glad you found the crossword dictionary. Men huh ? Always want the usual stuff, think they are creatures of habit

    Well its awful weather here today. I wanted to get all my seedlings sorted but i am a good weather gardener... So it will have to wait until the sun is shining.
    I have a 1 year old twins swimming nappy cake to finish, ribbon to add to another one and a boys mini cake to finish at some point this week. So might have a go today. Along with a few cards i have to sort out for later this month. So i think i am having a craftish day .
    My little are due back this afternoon after their weekend away with Grandma and Grandad. So i am sure they will have lots to tell me later :D

    Hope everyone is having a great Bank Holiday Monday.. Hugs to everyone xx

    Nipped on for a catch up - have read but haven't been thanking - please shoot me later.

    Have been spending some time with OH over last couple of days as we were getting a bit scratchy with each other - went to village fayre yesterday and DD managed to win me some hamper bits on a tombola type thing for 10p each :rotfl:. Local kids dancing round the maypole was very entertaining :D. Won't mention that I get thrashed at Tiger Woods golf again!!!

    Was supposed to do the ironing and clear the garage today but am going to craft instead but rainy has got me wanting to pick up my x stitch needle again - hmmmmm so much to do so little time.......................

    Have a great day

    Grrr some people annoy me, My Aunt and uncle have just left, so I nipped into the garden for a quick smoke, some chav has just jumped up onto my fence and looked straight at a little motorbike we have (It doesn't work but we have it for spares as we got it off freecycle) I just sat and watched him staring at it then asked what he was doing ... he nearly fell off the fence with fright cause he hadn't realised I was there, apparently his mate told him we were selling it ... and also his mate was in the garden getting his ball the other day (not sure how as he wouldn't be able to jump over and back again?) anyway I just told them I see them again I will kill them :rotfl: They looked scared especially when OH came out to find out what I was shouting about :rotfl: It really annoys me though when they think they can take other peoples things!!
