First Post

Well, I did it. I made a Blog. This wasnt anywhere near as hard as what I thought it would be.
After a hectic morning at hockey with the kids on Saturday (my birthday), with mixed results 2 wins and 1 loss, I got home and raced through a few chores. I then planned my attack for the afternoon, telling DH to organise dinner for the kids and himself. I planned a couple of LOs then packed my bags accordingly for a scrap night with friends. Its something I dont often do due to time (never enough of it) and work hours. I got in the car and cruised up to Forest Lake and spent a few hours scrapping at Hope's house. While there, I took the opportunity to indulge in some much needed retail therapy, where my DH bought me the green MM tote bag for my birthday. I just have to show him it LOL. I almost finished one LO and finished planning a second. These I finished on Sunday and I also completed another 2 LOs on Sunday as well (trying to keep hands busy while trying to give up the dreaded smokes). I really enjoyed playing with my shrinky plastic again. Dusted off the stamps, and the water colours to colour the plastic. Melanie watched in amazedment as they shrunk. I am really pleased with the way they turned out.

We also had a family lunch at Sizzler's. The kids had never been there before and had an absolute blast eating plate after plate of food. I thought Mel would burst with all the desserts she ate.

I think this might be enough for my first blog, so I am signing off for now.

Take care
