my entry is gone

for the SBO 'Get Real' competition...closing date is the 1st April. I feel really lost now though, it's been all I've done lately, so it feels weird not having it to do anymore! Back to 12 x 12's I guess - that'll be a challenge! LOL


Here's a few sneak peeks...




We got the official appointment in the mail today - Molly's MRI is scheduled for the 3rd April (Next Tuesday!!!) at 8.15am...it's now starting to scare the bejeebers out of me! I have no worries with the results, regardless of the outcome, but seeing the images I think the reality of what's going on really hit me!
Thanks to all the birthday wishes and goodies that I've been getting! Way to generous and kind! Though, scrapping mail has got to be the best kind!

Congratulations to all those that got through SBO's idol - sounds like this competitions going to be a good one! Can't wait to see what their challenge is about!

Monday....again

Time is just charging on by! I'd originally thought that Molly would start school at the start of Term 2, but considering SES hasn't even contacted me regarding Molly's ORRS funding, I'm thinking it's going to be more like the start of Term 3. Though, she's getting so much from kindy right now, so I'm really in no rush to yank her out...she won't get those same opportunities for play once she's at school.

I'm patiently (or not) waiting here for the nurofen to take charge and numb my pain. Blardy headaches, I'm thinking the wind has something to do with them lately, we've had heaps of wind and I'm getting these hideous headaches.

ooooo, exciting, Craig is off now looking for a distrubuter for my car, crikey, does that mean I might actually get to drive it this arvo??? It died on me just about two weeks ago....two weeks! Gee I've been soft on that boy! (**Please cross your fingers for me - because if you could see what I have to drive...well, it's just not pretty!!**)

I managed to do another Get Real page last night - one for the kiwi lunchbox - I got some of the new Basic Grey, Stella Ruby - OMG, I adore this stuff, my love of basic grey has started all over again!! I did my entries into Pam's CJ this morning too, (Sneak peeks below) and posted that

off. I really enjoy doing the CJ's - it's great fun seeing everyones styles, and sneak peeks into their lives, plus it's great getting scrappin' mail!!

Molly is slowly trashing the house, and while this headache is here, I couldn't care less! I want to scrap, but I'm struggling with what to do (not the lack of anything to do, it's the how to start and be happy with it, that I'm struggling with!!) - I hate it when your mojo takes a hike!!

Wednesday kindy has a trip to the museum and then to McDonalds...normally I go on all the trips, just because of who Molly is, but her teacher's aide offered to take her and said for me to take the morning off!!! Hehe, so stoked! She'll probably be better behaved for her too, she seems to run rings around me sometimes - and with the new smacking law...kidding!!

Com'n drugs & com'n Craig - I'd like to drive *my* car to collect T'K at 4 from touch practice.

Who's in charge

of the season change! And how come it changed like the flick of a switch!!?? It's darn ugly in Dunedin, though it does sound like the north island is copping way worse (which is such a change!!)

I am working my way through the SBO 'Get Real' competition, and considering I only restarted last week, I don't think I'm doing too badly! I wasn't thrilled with the 8.5x11, so had a rethink and changed it all! I've only got 5 more to go....I'm sure I can get them done by the end of the month, these two (I'm doing doubles) are from the @HOME theme

It's just a little album (think the pages are about 7x7), but I'm really chuffed with how it's coming together, and it'll be great once it's finished - some of the journalling is raw, but thats my take on it - the competitions name is Get Real, it's all about the little things and for me that means journalling, the good, bad and ugly!

T'Keyah has been to Wellington for the NZ Marching Champs - they came back with silver medals in the plate - so the girls were absolutely buzzing, makes them 7th team in the country. So it looks like she's decided to go back for another season, which is fine, as long as it's her decision.

Molly is doing well - more and more language is coming out of this kid, and the clarity is just getter better each day! We've unoffically heard that her MRI has been made for the 3rd April!! I'm beyond stoked that this is happening so quickly - we will get them to draw the blood while she's under for the bio-medical testing too...saves taking her back to Southern Labs and going through that trauma again (hehe, it was just as traumatic for us and the staff I think!!)

Well, better fly - off too look after Cam & Charlie - swap one brat for two (hehe, aye Lynne!!) Lets hope they can avoid the cupboards.....mmmmwwwhhhhhaaaahhhhhaaaa! (sooo kidding!)
