Wednesday 5th August






Yesterday was a busy day, hairdressing in the morning at a friends, then off to deliver some cards at my friends house who has an endless amount of friends, who actually love my cards. She is one of those Saintly Ladies who will always be there for you, whatever your need is she'll try and help. After my visit it was off to place money into my daughters hand for a driving lesson, prepare tea, jewellery class, finish off mornings hairdressing, take Sam (my daughters boyfriend home and finally sit down at 10.00. At 10.30 my ever enduring hubby went to bed.

Here's some pics of the hidden gems that were found in the garden.

Catching up with the days




On Saturday I was very selfish and took hubby and Amy to Gateshead flower festival. I'll post some pics later, the displays are out of this world. Craft section leaves me thinking why didn't I enter something.


Sunday was spent catching up with the ironing and inserts. I'd rather be doing something else than ironing and I'd rather be making cards than inserting. My very dear friend needed a little support as her Grandad, (who lived with her) died last week. She's finding it hard as they were very close. He was a man who was loved very much by all his family. Had a little drink with her last night.


Monday. Today is my hubbies birthday. Made and bought him cards as he doesn't recieve many. We've been bowling and to pizza hut, (advantage of having older kids is they don't throw tantrums any more when they get beaten). Well going to finish off inserts now.

Friday 1st August.






There was an awful thunder storm last night. Was awake for most of it. Amy had a driving lesson it's her second 2 hour session. She seems a little more relaxed. Went over to teesside park and booked bowling for monday as it's bri's b'day. Ordered bits and bob's from mad about as i had a 5 pound voucher. Amy was out with Sam at another 18th. Watched BB and picked her up later. I'm making Jayne N M cards at the moment, loving the results.

Thursday






Was quiet in the house. Stripped the kids beds it was a lovely morning. I spent most of the day sticking up those stupid fly stopping stringy things at the doors. Driven to distraction by beep beep flies. Off to card class to make a waterfall card. Prepared the flowers on my cricut before i went. I was pleased with the results.

Busy, Busy, Busy





Wednesday. In brief we had a day of gardening, cleaning and card making. Hubby was on nights so didn't feel guilty for sitting making cards.
