Scattyjan house hunting can be a nightmare can't it.. I do hope you find what you are looking for...
I cannot take the credit for the promarker storage container, it was Peppop...

Hi Hassy
the houses that we really like - all seem to be on main roads or near them which is no good with 3 cats, the one in Thornbury was the only one we had seen that we liked that was on a nice quiet little road. Still hopefully we will find something soon, I keep saying I will have a day off from looking but with the internet I just cant help myself lol

mumoffour - Yes I reckon we are, shame as I would of really liked to have gotten the garden a bit straight - we have been concentrating on the inside so the garden has been a little neglected - still on the bright side I have got some craft bits sitting on my desk waiting to be used
I love your cakes, very clever:T

Afternoon - I lost my crafting mojo for a few days but made some jewellery yesterday so it seems to be coming back!!!!
I have finally blogged the card I made for my brothers wedding anniversary. It's a stepper card which I made after Rainmac kindly posted a very easy tutorial. The beautiful butterflies were sent to my by the lovely CT1972. My sister in law liked the card and told my mum show would take some cards into work to sell for me so I really do need to get cracking and build up a supply of a variety of cards!!!!

Lou - hope your little fella is better now - that rash looked so sore. I'm surprised he wasn't screaming non stop, what a good little boy he is and still managing to smile at you.
Rusty - hope you are feeling abit better, how awful that the doctor left you on the floor without sending any help for you - on a nicer note - well done on losing weight, keep up the good work.

Congrats to any winners amongst us - sorry have got abit lost with the names this week.

nuttienettie - love the card that you made for your nephew's birthday.
Tired Mom - have a good time at the caravan, hope the weather stays dry for you.
Mumoffour - fab Pamper cakes!!
Scattyjan - I know Thornbury, have been there a few times!!! Abit further up the motorway from me!

Afternoon all, just popping on quickly to say thanks for all the persuasion. I had my first appointment with a chiropractor today, he is hopeful he might be able to help me but rather than him keep charging me and me possibly wasting money he wants to see me 3 times next week and has dropped the £27 per visit to just £5 per visit. he is hopeful that by saturday of next week I might be 50% better so please keep them fingers crossed for me. I have been cursing cause I wanted some different kind of pain to moan about and take my mind off my leg, and just noticed my abcess is back in roof of my mouth at back of my teeth, dentist wont write prescription for antibiotics without seeing me and I can't walk or sit in his seat to go see him so guess I can moan about tooth pain for a while now aswell as leg pain :rotfl: sorry but if I dont laugh about some of this I really will just sit and cry and not stop!!

hope everyone is ok. will try and get back on later on to catch up again but I am off to bed now xxx

Pointofnoreturn - wow fantastic card, those butterflies are beautiful - love the colours on the card as well.
Fingers tightly crossed for you Rusty

Lovely makes on your blogs everyone - will do a proper bloghop and leave comments later.

Mumoffour - lovely pamper cakes :T

Scattyjan - good luck with the house selling / hunting.

Peppop - I liked that idea about storing your Promarkers, I suppose you could keep the box on its side for the majority of the time. My Promarkers are in a plastic box and when I want to colour at night, dh gives me the evils because I make such a noise rummaging around for the colour I want :rotfl:.

Does anyone have some good storage ideas for Promarkers ???

Rusty - that's good news about the Chiropracter, I hope he can help. Sounds like you are really run-down with your abscess reappearing - not surprising, all your energy will be going into coping with your back pain. Take care and look after yourself.

Take care all, am off to print out some digis that I resized last night.

I made some storage for mine from toilet roll inners stuck inside a cardboard box :rotfl:had a blue peter moment but sure beats seaching for each colour in a tub and now I have a tube or serveral tubes for each colour and I coloured some round stickers for the end caps so I can see at a glance which colour I'm pulling out.
