    Pepop - Not sure what you mean by don't know how I cope? Surely this is just normal every day life? :rotfl: or is it just that I am so used to poop being thrown at me in every direction that I just try and get on with it? :rotfl:

    Liza - that workstation is one of the ones that OH and I were looking at for me! he saw some others which also had more storage that that one but I liked that one. Can you call your local store and ask them? we went down and managed to get the last 2 display trofast units for DS's bedroom!! was a mare but worth it in the end!!

    There is a free digi here @ Just inklined

    The painter has gone :j :j and the carpet fitter is upstairs fitting carpet (I hope! lol) OH should be home soon so we can start putting everything back in there before we have to go get weighed!!

    I am annoyed though, he has splattered dark grey on the skirting :mad: luckily it is behind the door so cant notice it really!! .... also he has snapped the ariel off OH's garage stereo ... OH has had it for years and will go mad :mad: I haven't told him yet but would have been nice to be told rather than just finding it in amongst all of the carp he left all over the floor!! Geeee Rant over!

    rusty while the paint is still reasonably fresh, get a baby wipe and clean off the skirting. I am never that careful when I paint and a baby wipe always works a treat, may need a bit of elbow grease too as its dark grey! x

    ETA - OMG about the stereo! he should pay for that!

    Elysia - I've got the peony one and I was very tempted to get the parasol stamp - but I resisted - I'll probably go back and buy that one next week!!!

    has someone not gotten the ladybug yet, yikes! I have to confess a have a couple of magnolias and still haven't made a card with one. You have inspired me to try and make one next week. Way to go Irlip - you have to make a blog so we can see your creations :)

    I've just blogged another Magnolia card - this one is very sparkly!!!! I'd lovingly coloured in an image of my new stamp last night, this afternoon I cut it out and 10 mins ago Elliot got hold of her and ripped her head off! It was meant to be for a distressed card but I think a decapitated Tilda is a little too distressed.

    Soma - I like that one too!

    Gemm, forgot to say earlier that your ATC came today, I love it and the cute card, thank you xxx

    Mel, oh no decapitated Tilda!!! I saved that site for another day when I will let myself spend, she's got lots of Tildas that I love, couldn't look too hard otherwise I'd be adding several to a basket ;-)
