Busy Busy!!



I have not stopped this weekend. What with work yesterday and housework today its been manic!!!

Still I am not in the shop until Wednesday now and my house is all tidy and sparkly clean ........ bliss!!!!

I have been trying to find time for a bit of crafting here and there. Still trying to use old stash and so far so good!!!!!!

Here is a card for Steve from one of the boys for his birthday in a couple of weeks.

'Oh we do like to be beside the seaside'



We packed our bucket and spades yesterday together with a picnic and two excited chaps and we drove to Heacham.

We had a fabby time chilling and just enjoying being together doing stuff.

All three boys went rockpooling and then made two massive sandcastles which really were works of art. Steve and Harry buried George because well he wanted them too!!!

Finally late afternoon we drove down the road to Hunstanton and enjoyed fish and chips by the sea.

What a lovely day xxxxx

Off to spend quality time with these two monkeys today at the seaside. They have lots of pent up energy which needs getting rid off!!!
Made 4 cards yesterday - yipeee!

I am getting there!!


I am in an organisational frenzy!!!!!
All paperwork is up to date, I have sorted mine and the boys wardrobes out (how can I have about 4 different sizes in mine?!) and I am making cards for events in September!!!!!
Phew!!!!!!!!!
Here is our card to George whose birthday is at the end of August - I do like the Jolly Nation decoupage and have used it several times.
Now as for my using stash up? Wellllll that has been sort of successful but I must admit I did go to Colemans on Saturday and spent some money. I did not buy paper though...honest!!!!!
This afternoon I am in work for a few hours and then tonight I have a girly night in with some friends which I am really looking forward to. Think I have been stuck with boys only for a bit too long and so need female company!!!!!
Tomorrow we are (hopefully) off to the seaside to get some fresh air. Will take camera and post some pics tomorrow night xxxxx

Am back ......again!!!

Well the summer hols are almost upon us....well they will be at 3pm this afternoon!!
This year the boys have 7 weeks off which I am looking forward to as last year they had a short holiday in comparison.

The last couple of weeks have seen the Feary family living in a house of sickness and general yuckiness. Even I succumbed last Friday and went to the docs to be told that yes indeedy I was proper poorly with chest infection and sinusitus. I promptly went to bed afterwards (which I never ever do!!) and seemed to stay there all weekend.
We all seem to be coming out of the other side now and hopefully we will be 100% recovered by next week.

Over the last few days I have got back into the swing of things and realised, like I do every so often that I seem to run around so much after everyone else but make little time for me. This may explain my crabbiness lately so I have made an effort to create and enjoy.

I am also on a mission to use up my stash.....I have sooooooo much and it is ridiculous that it doesn't get used. So I am using it!!!!

I did some stamping yesterday and created this card which I lubs....alot!!! May do some more colouring in today as it is sooo relaxing.

Anyway school run is beckoning along with housework - have a good day everyone!!! xxx

Phew that went quick!



Blimey Wednesday went by in a flash!!!!

Have done lots of things today and even managed to squeeze in a little crafting which was fab!

Unfortunately as the projects are for Father's Day I can't really post them yet so here is a card I made a while ago which is so girly.

Meeting up with a friend tomorrow morning who is having a pretty crappy time of it lately and then going to sort out spare room as my hubs is going to decorate it on Friday - yes Mum your bedroom is being sorted LOL!!! xxxx

Yes I am back!!!

I cannot believe that this is my first post in over two months!!!!
Time has flown by so much and alot of things have been taking up my time but I am finally here!!!

Many things have been happening some good and some bad but one of the good things is our latest addition to the family.
This beautiful boy is called Henry and we have taken him in and he has made himself at home. I have always wanted a grey cat as my great Gran had one called Inca when I was a little girl.
The boy is most certainly a Mummy's boy and is the biggest but most loveable cat I have ever owned!!!!

In addition to a return to blogging I have also made a card or three today. They were simple but its a start and I finally feel happy just having a play with paper again.

May even try a little scrapbooking tomorrow.........small steps!!!! xxxx
