Hannah gifted me

her cold! Now I know I've always encouraged her to share however I'm sure I quite categorically told not to share that. Oh well 'Day Nurse/Night Nurse' works wonders for the inevitable runny nose, and scalding hot black tea helps with the sore throat. Hopefully this one won't hang around for long.
Tonights DVD from Mr Tesco was Star Trek, it's been a bit of a wait but worth it, now we can start wondering what we'll get for next Sunday.

Another Wyverstone

Saturday sadly over, they always go to quickly probably cause I always have such a good time.
November crop is the last one of the year, so we trotted off to the Four Horse Shoes and enjoyed a festive pub lunch and the empty plate speaks for itself.

Predictably I completely very little but what I did achieve I was pleased about. I now only have a little bit of journaling to add to a mini book that I started in Oct 2008! I cut cardstock down to 6" x 6" and gather christmas patterned papers together ready for the start of JYC on Tuesday and just need to gather some embellishments together and I'll be right ready. Plus I all but completed 1 LO, a scraplift of one of my own LO cause there's no point 'reinventing the wheel'.

Well I'm sort of ready

for Wyverstone in the morning in that my table favour is made and filled and I know what clothes I'm wearing, so long as they still fit.
My stash however still needs to be packed, mainly because I can't decide whether to pack ultra light in the full knowledge that I rarely get much done or to just throw whatever in the car and go with the flow when I get there. The later sounds like my kind of plan.
So now that decision is made I'm heading off to bed.

Hello my name's Eileen

and I'm deadline scrapper, well normally but have been really inspired by Decembers GoGo gorgeousness. Decembers ScrapaGoGo kits aren't just for Christmas photos, no you'll be scrapping all sorts with it but of course it's good for Christmas photos if you want.

Here's my LOs and just wait to see what the other GoGo Girls have been up to.

Anybody that knows

me knows that Christmas isn't my favourite time of year, so I surprised myself and probably anybody reading this that I've signed up for Journal Your Christmas with Shimelle . No pressure, I'm gonna roll with it, do what I can and not beat myself up if it doesn't work out cause I can have another bash at it next year. Heck I might even rediscover I like Christmas.

Card crazy

that's what I've been. I may have started off making card but I don't normally go mad for making card well that was until Thursday and Friday evening when made up 8 cards using Decembers ScrapaGoGo Greetings kit. I can only show you 7 cause the 8th one needs a greeting adding.

Gotta love

technology when you can get it to work but oh so frustrating when you can't. Successfully used ichat video connection with sister and family but sadly can't figure out why I can't anyone else.
I think this is worth investing a bit more time into but for now it's time for lunch and then a little bit of GoGo scrapping, December style.

I was boomed

the moment I step into the shop! I went up to Papermaze to pick up a 1"circle punch that I really do need however my resistance was weak and temptation too strong and came away with some Cosmo Cricket & October Afternoon papers plus a couple of other bits.

Now I had better get back to my saving ways or I won't have any money to spent whilst in American in January. Avoidance is gonna be my best strategy I think.

I cheered myself

up by watching a bunch of Mac adds on YouTube, this has to be my favourite - Apple Add - Calming Teas, go watch it's a laugh.

Scrapping's meant to be

FUN right?  Well it isn't at the moment. The project I'm working on at the moment is lucky not to be a little ball of screwed up paper on the other side of the room. So I'm stepping away from the scalpel, glue and papers and I'm gonna see whether it's any better in the morning.

OMG

I had such a laugh this afternoon, my good friend Karen popped in for a cuppa and for some reason the mood descended in to silliness started of course by Karen. Karen finds greyhound ears irresistible and loves nothing better than to play 'earigami', the art of folding greyhound ears. Missy is such a softie she doesn't mind as long as she get some fussing. Charlie does his own ear thing that we call 'Dobbie Ears' like Dobbie from Harry Potter. So that got us giggling, Karen giggling at Missy and Charlie and me giggling at her, it all so infectious. I so must get a photos although it won't be as funny as the real thing.
Then we got chatting about the hole that's appeared in her lounge (you have to go visit her blog she has the patience of saint with the house renovations that are an ongoing 16 yr process!) which given it's depth I suggested she better not fall down else she might never make out again, you have to know that Karen is a smig under 5 ft although she claims to be 5 ft anyway I thought it was pretty funny. Then it struck me she couldn't fall down the hole her boobs would stop her but that she's be stuck with her leg gangling below, yep Karen's not only short in statue but a little on the top heavy side, well that was it we were both in absolute stitches. 
Karen you're such a good sport but I know there's gonna be a price to be paid, she's said as much on her blog. Maybe not next week but I'm gonna be on my guard the week after.

Two's a magic number,

well the only magic is it's the number of LOs I got finished today and I wasn't even the last person to leave the crop room this time.

Right I need to get some quality sleep as quantity is no longer available.
