    Eating my lunch so catching up. Washing on line, lounge floor found (again), house vacuumed, stairs swept and clothes put away so happy with mornings jobs. Need to get chicken in the oven and then I can play abit more with my blog. Didn't manage to vac Erin's room as can't actually find the floor and that is a big job when she's not about to "help".

    Thrifty - Hope washing machine isn't terminal I hate spending money on unexciting things like that.

    Twinkle - To the docs you go girl or at least phone. My mom has had pleurosey (twice) and family history of pneumonia. She ended up in hospital in January as docs didn't give her antibiotics fast enough.

    Padster - Thanks for that super tutorial, I have bookmarked it to refer back to.

    Mumoffour - I can't help with best buys etc I'm afraid as very new to this so want to buy everything. I am hanging fire on a die cutter until my birthday but would be interested to know how you get on with the Bigshot as I am quite interested in that one.

    Rusty - Big hugs, I've thankfully never had bad tooth ache but seeing the children going through bad teething was enough. Must be something in the air though about teeth DS has just lost another one.

    Dragonllews- Thanks for link to the promarkers tutorials they will be very useful.

    CraftyGranny - You're probably not going to like me but have you seen this site.

    I found it as I bought a couple of gorgeous sheets of glittered double sided paper from Rosemary Merry in a princess theme. They are by Best Creations Inc and called Once upon a dream. They are truly stunning and only to be stroked not used! I was looking to find an online supplier and found this site. I haven't had a good look around yet as I have banished the spendy elves and will apologise to you in advance if they arrive with you.

    Right off to put chicken in oven and clean the bathroom (oh joy) and then blog play.

  • Thank you all for your kind words (and threats of slapping for the doctors receptionist) fortunately not required I have an appointment this afternoon.

    Rusty I hope you are feeling better soon as well, toothache isn’t any fun

    Sorry cant remember any more that I have read but thank you to those who posted links as well.

    Not sure if this is any good for value as I don't have one...yet...but thought I'd share with you :)

    QVC have this: QuicKutz Digital Design Portfolio for Silhouette Digital Die Cutter for £29.48 from £50.98 on 2 easy payments!? Theres Wildflower or Block Party to choose from.

    http://www.qvcuk.com/ukqic/qvcapp.aspx?app=detail&params=item^587005,tpl^uk,sc^,cc^,from^,navlist^584127*584400*585802*586994*587005*587062*587320*587461*587868*588411*588430*589215*589218*,cm_scid^24hr

    Looks like a good price to me but I don't understand how it costs £3.95 to post as its only a CD!!!
    :wave:Hi, I have a passion for crafting.......I'm always up to something :rotfl::rotfl:

    Ooooh, oooh, ooooh - I'm not Craftygranny but that site's just been bookmarked. Before ds was diagnosed and I was working we went to WDW in Florida once and stayed at the Caribbean Beach Resort. Best holiday ever, ever, ever. My dream is to go back - don't know / see how that will ever happen but a girl's got to have a dream.

    Washing machine man has been and it may as well be terminal - needs a new drum. The drum has to be ordered and then the machine taken to the workshop and repaired - I'm looking at 2 weeks :mad:. Still - I'm not going to be a stress-head we will visit the local launderette and bill our supplier. Ready with your Essex slap Wifey - I've got my Glasgow kiss waiting for the next person that crosses me - no more Mrs Nice Thrifty.
