Well, I got so far as to start the listing in Ebay but I don't know what it is about it, but I can't bear it!! I'd rather mark hundreds of books than list on ebay at the mo - strange considering just how much I listed last year!
Still haven't written the letters, but will do tonight. Just cooking tea for the kids. Attempting to print out some photos but my printer has the hump with me and keeps doing it wrong.

Hiya! Just came across your new diary! Love the scrapbook pages, I've got a couple of scrapbooks that I picked up in the TKMaxx clearance for £1 each. I've used one like a photo album for all DS's things that he drew/made at nursery when he was a baby, but just totally chucked stuff in it so it looks a real mess. The other is nice and shiny and new (a bit like your diary!) so maybe I'll take your inspiration and try and make it into something nice. If I ever get the time!
Brill on quitting smoking - really hope that you can stick to it as it will not only save a fortune but do wonders for your health (as if you don't know that already!). My dad quit 7 yrs ago after over 50 yrs as a chain smoker and the difference in him is phenomenal. He keeps saying he wishes he's done it sooner. Unfortunately my mum is still a chain smoker with no intention of stopping. Keep eating the chocolate instead, it's loads cheaper and smells much nicer. Mmmmm....0 -
Oh wow - I'll have to keep my eyes peeled in TK Maxx then!! I've been busy doing more before I go back to school tomorrow - and I like them much better than the ones I posted above, so might have to post more lol. Even if all you do is stick the photos with a little journalling and maybe a ribbon or sticker or 2 and that's all that's needed!! I stick to very simple things.
Anyway absolutely nothing to report.

Your scrapbooking looks great. It was my New Year's resolution to take more photos (which I've done...maybe a little too much) but all I do is stick them in an album - very boring compared to yours. I'm madly jealous as I'm not in the slightest bit artistic!0

Honestly, I'm not artistic!! You just buy pretty paper and stick pretty pictures on to it!!!CCCS DMP:Feb 07
