Tom’sMom – love your tatty teddy card. I need to make one for a 10 year old girl who absolutely loves tatty teddy/me to you teddy, can I ask which site you got the image from, or did you just do a search on google images? I’ve tried that but didn’t really find one I thought would be suitable. Sorry not sure about the gems, but if I see any on my travels i'll let you know.

CT - I just used Google images, can't find the page I originally used but this is a good start, quite a few on there would make nice toppers - I've just found me a couple of lovely ones and saved them . Some more here as well.

I have some good news, I have a job, working as an Internet Assessor for a US company. Found out about the company ages ago and applied about 2 weeks ago, been through the selection process and sat 2 exams which I passed so now waiting for final details and then I can start. I work from home in my own time and hours are flexible so long as I do at least 10 hours a week. I am so excited :j :j :j

Sorry can't remember anything I have read (too excited ) apart from Mel's comment about the bag - get it packed quick missus

Thanks CT, very nice of you to say that :A

Had a lovely day today seeing my friend and her new lil boy bundle. He is sooooo cute and very tiny. I then went to pick up DS2 from preschool to find out he had been biten by another child Then went to fill up with petrol and nipped through the car wash and forgot to take my aerial off the car and it got snapped off, I've fessed up to OH, felt a right idiot

Yeah Rainmac congrats. Is that through a company listed in the MSE forum? I did a quick search when you mentioned it as it's the sort of thing that would be perfect for my hubby and it came up with a thread on here. Good luck with it.

Congratulations on the new job Rainmac - more money for crafting stash, so you won't have to stick to your ban, will you!

Hope your little one is OK after being bitten. What are preschool doing about it?

Skiergirl - how's your knees today?

Thanks for the links TomsMom - off to have a look xx

Rainmac congrats on the new job.

Artydoll congrats on the new car

Melissa will one bag be enough my dil had 2 wheelie suitcases and a holdall last week took both twins just to get her luggage to the car.lol most of the other ladies were just the same although i'm not surprised as you have to take baby clothes and blankets nappies and milk and god knows what . They used to provide them when i had mine.

Carly went to bradford again today we left at one and only got home at half 7 they did all her tests again then tweaked her so she can hear even quieter noises too. Had a job getting her head back in the car they kept telling her how wonderful she is lol. We're all really proud of her though she a determined little monkey and is well outdoing everyones expectations.

Took her out for tea as a treat on the way back and bought her a cinderella book in morrisons . She loves the princesses cinderella is her favourite and kaitlyn loves belle .

Yep, Lionbridge. I read about them a couple of years ago but never did anything about it but decided to give it a go and have got through

CT, the boy that bit DS2 is a known biter. I think he is somewhere on the autistic spectrum but his mum is in denial about his problems. I feel so sorry for him as he is a troubled little boy

Ooohhh craftygranny, that is fabulous news about Carly, bless her xxx

Congratulations to everyone with good news :j

I've been having fun tonight playing with my new stash from the SECC I'm waiting for my glitter to dry before I can piece some cards together :rotfl:

I have done one card though which is in the usual place, not with new stash though - apart from the use of my Nesties

Evening,

I've had to read back about 8 pages to catch up so get ready for a very long post!

Rainmac, Well done on your ebay sales, your win & your new job! Hope DS2 is ok after his bite!

Flourgirl, Hope your OH likes his HTC when it arrives, I've just got a HTC desire & I love it. Have you got your LOTV order yet? I find it really hardly to resist ordering everything they sell! lol I really want some of the new stamps they are bringing out

Addams, I have put a card on my bl*g which I'd like to enter into your challenge please

Rusty, I hope the drugs are making the pain a little more bearable & that they hurry up & help you properly. Wish I could drive so I could pop along to Blyth & help you out, I could always find a bus to get me along there if you're stuck & need some help though. Where in South Shields is Arty & Crafty?? My OH comes from across there & has never told me about a craft shop being there, I'll have to tell him off! Love your flower.

Georgiegirl2012 Sorry to hear your weekend didn't go as planned. Enjoy playing with your new Cricut

Dragonllew Congrats on your win. Hope you back is feeling a bit better

Soma Hope you are feeling a bit brighter. Well done on your DT position

Glad that everyone that went to the SECC had a goodtime, I'm jealous! Not long for me to wait for the GNPE in Harrogate though

RebekahR Hope you're feeling better

Butler_Helen Welcome! Can't believe you've read that many pages, it's taken me ages to just read 8!

Melissa, Well done on your win. I hope you've got that bag packed now!

Marg, Glad to hear your eyes are getting better

Mad Frog, Glad you enjoyed the Lake District.

Artydoll, glad to hear you've got a new car

Craftygranny, Fab news about Carly

I've posted two new cards on my bl*g if anyone would like to take a look. I'm off to catch up on all of yours now. Hugs to all. x
