One of my little bright spots



created using my new True Colours kit...

most certainly a little bright spot on a cloudy day... or a rainy one for that matter... and this little bright spot and her Daddy have just taken the Daimler on a classic car run... ooops Mummy was having a brain fart yesterday when she arranged a play day for the other bright spot ... drat and blast... it means we are all going in different directions again...

and sadly for me it looks like my direction might have to be housework! Ahhhh the lounge looks like an explosion in a toy store!

who remembers...

don't leave home till you've seen your country...

getting ready for Italy has bought this home to me... I have to say we have seen far more of our country than most have... we have found some totally amazing out of the way places that certainly warrant a return visit... there isn't many places we haven't been in our wonderful country so now its off to visit other peoples countries...

Some days should be cancelled due to

a complete lack of interest! The flu jab chris and I both had the other day has hit us both quite hard... mine is all aches and pains and generally being freezing cold despite the heat pump being on and having a whole heap of layers on and his well he is still having to go to work but it's with a bunged up nose... aches and pains everywhere ... well you get the idea...

I have managed to get some thing achieved though... some of it has appeared in the shoppe at www.twolittlepixels now... wanna see it????

Traveller - the kit (also sold in separate packs)





And Tapes 1... some yummy(even if I do say so myself!) black cloth tapes

Sometimes you just have to ask yourself...

what on earth you were thinking...

Chris had Tuesday off work since he is now working a nine day stretch during the Boiler Shutdown... where they basically tear the boiler apart make sure everything is working as it should be, replace bits that need replacing ... well you get the idea!

So why did we think that Tuesday was a grand day for us both to get our flu vaccinations so that we didn't end up catching the flu while we were in Italy...

Why???? My arm feels straight out wierd... most of the time its just numb... and add to that the aches all over and being freezing cold most of the time! But Chris... well he has got the raw end of the deal... he has all the aches and pains along with the icky nose etc... and he still has to go to work and function ...

So I ask you... can you figure out why two relatively sensible people would do this to themselves???? HUH?


Now just so this doesn't end up a pity post I am going to add a wee page I did the other day... its only tiny... a 6 x 4 and uses this amazing little mini kit from Christine Honsinger (fiddlette) over at www.scrapartist.com as soon as I saw this kit I had the words "I love you to the moon and back" pop into my head ... this quote comes from a much loved book in this house "guess how much I love you"... so okay nowhere in the book does a cat and flying fish appear but this is just how it happened... and I like it... what about you???
