2 sleeps!

On Friday, i have a mega drive ahead of me! over 300miles to Moffat in Scotland, I am meeting up with some of the girls from the frozen north thread and also my friend Sarah is coming too(from Norfolk) so we both have a bit of a drive to do although she is cheating and driving up to the north east on thursday and staying with family overnight!

I didn't sleep again last night so i've cat-napped for most of this morning and am trying to stay awake today so i'll sleep tonight and tomorrow night in the hope that i'll pack my car up and do some last minute shopping, dye my hair, wax my eyebrows and find the kits that i said i would take with me for a friends daughter! at the minute they are proving very elusive!!!

I am taking my 'pooter' with me but am hoping to get some serious scrapping done so may not actually get online.... but i have to be back for sunday evening to watch the last episode of Being Human....

Feeling pretty pants of late

So i went to the Drs today and saw a Dr Nimenko, what a star he was! i have pleurisy and am now on antibiotics and painkillers! so i'm off back to bed shortly!

Another Tiddy Jiggy piece


I finally managed to glaze it and here it is dry next to the design i chose to use, its a celtic love knot!

The background is a combination of 3 different colours to give it a mossy look/feel and the knot was painted in bronze and outlined in black to make it stand out!

I hope Leigh11 likes it as much as i do!

Kids...

Yesterday I woke with a stinking cold! having been up most of the previous night trotting back and forth to the bathroom! sorry tmi!

I love my 3 dearly but i don't love the bugs and stuff they bring home from school! I'm looking forward to going to scotland at the end of the month but today has brought a letter in the post saying my car tax is due on the last day(Grrrrrrrrr!) trying to figure out the finances and see if i have enough for car tax and petrol money on top of having to pay for my monthly subs kit and anything else that might take my fancy! Oh well off back to bed now, just one last thought!

Why is it always half term or school holidays when you pick these blinking colds and shivers up???

Tiddy Jiggy piece

 


This is the first piece of a jiggy swap i am doing thru UKS, the pic looks yellower than it actually is because i took the photo at night using artificial light...

anyway just to give you an idea of what it looks like and i really hope Jane likes it - the theme is magical moon!
