Aaaaaargh ....

I dislike writing articles ...intensely!!! I love making up the stuff for the magazines but when it come to writing up the "How To" I fall apart. Bleurgh ...can't people just look at pages of pretty things ...why do they need all the blurb that goes with it? #wink# Only joking .. ahem well kind of, I still hate doing the write ups Ms Mandy! No prizes for guessing what I was doing last night then folks? After the stressful task set to me by Mandy dearest, prompted I might add by "encouraging" e-mails every few minutes .. I decided at 11pm thet my robox was too grey and proceeded to decopatch it. Why oh why do I start these things in the middle of the night when I have ofspring that have a tendency to wake at 5 am? So I now have a very patchily, pretty wheelie tote of the "cheapie" kind. I shall take a photo when I have covered all the spots I missed and the sun has come out (Yup that's me the eternal optimist). Yesterday the lil' jewels and I popped into town for a quick visit that lasted ... erm around 3 hours and included meeting my dear friend Jane and her brood for lunch .... and now I am the proud owner of 2 new rolls of acid free double sided tape, a Photo Cyan ink cartridge for my printer and the Ice Age 2 dvd. Last of the BIG spenders you see! Aanyway ... did you know all the christmas deco's, lights and glittery things are up and out? It is still October ... isn't it???? Anyhoo obviously I am behind the time so here's a little picture to get the festive season juices flowing ... littler lil' Sarah as my SANTA BABY. Today I plan on doing some maniactical cleaning as we have people who want to view this house .... and then I am going to snuggle down with the girlies and a big bowl of popcorn on the sofa and watch Ice Age 2. Weeheee I'm so excited ... for the movie that is NOT the cleaning ... I detest housework even more than write ups ...and that's saying something!!!!! Have a blissful day dahlinks! MWAH

Oh man do I feel your pain with the article writing. I am getting more comfortable with it, but still much prefer creating and not writing. What a precious precious santa baby!!! Have a great day.
