Making cards - Ideas (part 5)

ali.b.123

Evening ladies, hope you are all enjoying the sunshine one sports day out of the way it was over in 20 mins didnt mind though as it was red hot and noooo shade!!!

Erm.... sure there was something else I was going to say and now I cant remember - ah well when it comes back to me I'll be straight back on - lol.

Right off to sort the kids out for bed a late night as hubby on nights and Jack needed picking up from scouts at 9pm off to check if he is ok as they have been for a WALK tonight!!! Well if its not walking round a video game store he's not interested but he went with no moaning so fingers crossed he enjoyed it and then we can arrange some more walks but somehow me thinks walking with mum & dad wont be as enjoyable!!!

Catch you later xx

Marg

flourgirl - hope you have a lovely time - sadly, it looks as if the weather is breaking. I for one will be glad of the extra time to swirl & pearl - thank you!

flourgirl

Thanks Marg, I prefer it to be cooler, and if it rains we have plenty of reading stuff. We are hoping to do a bit of exploring on the bikes! There is a disused railway track turned into a trail path that runs along side the campsite, we have walked some of it but thought we would go the other way on our bikes. Might not be able to walk after lol

Most of you have seen the pics of the colouring class I did on sat, it was with Bev Rochester and I am amazed that I can colour like that, just need lots more practice and keep on trying and I should be able to apply it to any image! had such a laugh and kept getting told off for being heavy handed! I was the youngest there and some of the other ladies sitting around me were lovely!! pics on my blog if anyone wants a nosey and hasnt seen!

Glad you enjoyed the class - your images are stunning and beautifully coloured! Just tried to comment on your blog but couldn't Congrats on all the weight loss (you're doing better than me)

Rainmac you never know you might have a new job by then, any news?

Rusty wow on your weight loss, what diet are you following if you don't mind me asking

Marg I nearly had a child run into my bike, they were coming down a hill out of control and I was panting trying to get up the hill, a great excuse to get off my bike

last night at work tonight, going shopping in the morning then trying to craft before a cat nap in the afternoon then two full days of crafting seeing as the rain has decided to return just in time for me to have missed a week of it :mad:

I am following the See food diet ... :rotfl: no only joking, I am just eating really healthy, lots of salad/stir fry and fruit. I aim at 1000 cals a day, but I also burn off at least 150 on the wii fit every night. I am averaging between 600 and 750 calories a day by the time I have burned some off! It will however come off me faster as I am fat ... the fatter you are the more you lose to start with ...

mooomin

Is 1000 calories a day not too low though? I know you're dieting but sheesh!

I'm doing Weight Watchers at the moment and have lost 11lbs in four weeks. I swear, I've never eaten this much in my life before - totally converted to it
