Raiding and Scrubbing

Unfortunately my addiction to Tomb Raider has kicked in.The littlets are in Wexford with Mam and Dad.I've been cleaning since they left and looking for lost artifacts with Lara in between.There has been no scrapping done I'm afraid.I need to sit down with my photos and look for inspiration.On with raiding as I'm nearly finished the game and I can't rest until I've put this baby to bed!

Fresh Starts and Do-overs

Yesterday was filled with lots of tidying, so....I now have a tidy work area. Its not perfect, I need more storage space and less furniture! The lovely Ironing Angel ,Poliana, came for two hours and rid me of the curse of the ironing pile. So that was a very good thing!And the talented Rosaleen came to perform miracles on my hair, which she never fails to do..and that was another very good thing because today I felt more feminine.
Today I was able to scrub and clean my tidy workspace so now it smells good too! My two good friends, Jackie and Patricia are coming to lunch so I've to get up early and fetch veggie stuff for them to eat.Saoirse is going to see "Annie" (her b'day pressie from Karen )and I've to pack a case for her and Eoghan 'cos they're going to Wexford for the week with Mam and Dad.I am looking forward to getting some scrapping done.Theres a craft demo on at Inspiring ideas on Saturday..so I might have to go just to check it out...as you do...for research purposes!

I have had the best weekend.I recieved lots of lovely pressies for my birthday on Friday. Went stash shopping with Sandra (needlewoman extraordinaire!)on Saturday.Had dinner with my parents on Sunday...there's nothing quite so good as a Sunday dinner at Mams. Yesterday was quite boring really, just housework and.So I tried this from an Origami book Eamonn gave me on Sunday

And today I had some time before I took the littlets to a Birthday party so I finally got the crochet to work. Yaaaayh!!! Now to use them on an lo....mmmmm

Quiet house!

Saoirse was at a friends house having a sleepover last night and they've just rang to ask if she could stay again tonight.I don't know my peace because herself and Eoghan have been bickering a lot lately. Anyhoo this is what I managed to do today
