Hope I see you there!

P.S. To all worried friends and family who watched the news tonight.....the bushfires here are fairly close by in Gilgai (about 15 kms as the crow flies).  Crews and planes from all over have been fighting it, so far Tim has avoided being called out, but expects he will have to go out there tomorrow to relieve.

Happy List

Right now I'm loving:

1.  The Barnyard Buddies papers and stickers I got to play with for my guest DT spot....read my full review and how I created this page on the Scrapawhile blog.

2.  A day off work when Mimi and I get to do fun stuff like.....cook pikelets.....

3.  Thursday nights cos I get to watch my latest obsession......

4.  The handmade oatmeal soap I got at the Bellingen markets......mmmmm....so good!

5.  This little guy....

....Kate and I sewed our own version of him on the weekend out of the book "More Softies"......so many cute critters in there!

6. Kate's reply when I asked her if she had thought about her Christmas List yet....."the draft is in progress" she said to me.....god love 10 year olds!!!

7.  This movie......why hadn't I seen it before now???  Totally beautiful, heart felt and original.....you won't believe this one made me cry even more than The Notebook.  Still sobbing during the credits, had my shower....still sobbing.....cried myself to sleep.....no, it's OK, I LOVED IT!

Well, that's seven things making me happy right now.....how about you?

What's happening...

First of all, I'm doing some Guest Designing this month for Scrapawhile.....playing with the extra-cute Barnyard Buddies range of products by Reminisce.  Have a fun challenge coming up as well as an online tutorial.  Keep an eye out!

Had my "Home" page published in Scrapbooking Memories last month (Vol 11 No 9).....I taught this class to my Gum Flat ladies a little while back.....love this layout!  One of my ladies had a layout published in the same issue......very exciting!  Yay Libet!

....actually, I still have one of these kits as a Class-in-a-Box if anyone wants it.....and heaps more "Little Guy" kits left as well (see last post).

This weekend was pretty much all about ballet.  Saturday Kate had exam practice with the pianist, and today was the big day in front of the examiner......my beautiful Grade 4 ballerina just before going in.....

....she came out smiling....relief!  Now the long wait for the results.....

I tidied my bedroom!  No more books and mags laying around everywhere, I have a huge box of old For Keeps and Scrapbook Creations mags to take to the library, even my jewellery box is neat and sorted......now just to get hubby to clean up his side.....!

Watched Slumdog Millionaire on DVD finally......love the way this tale was told.   Sad, scary, violent, tender, funny, sweet......I tell you, I am so grateful to be born in Australia.

Thanks for calling in........talk soon. xxx
