Ok, so i'm still chasing my tail, still having to schedule posts when i have a quiet minute to do them.  Everyone seems to be having an afternoon nap, well everyone except me! 

The packing is going well ... but, i've managed to pack all my kitchen scissors!  Only got my craft stuff, the dining-room, Andy's PC and the shed to go, with 17 days left to do it in!

Yesterday, whilst packing some of the kitchen items away Mali decided to jump in my big saucepan.  Guess what we had for dinner last night LOL!

Dad Update ~ his appointment went well, after we eventually got in there 2 hours after the allotted time!  Anyhow, we're still none the wiser as to whether its spread or not.  The CT scan shows something on his pelvis but its inconclusive and he wanted to get someone else to take a look at the photos.  They can't be too concerned cos he next appointment is 8 weeks away ... so thats gotta be good surely!

And Many More ......

Well today is "D" day for us.  We find out today the results of my Dad's CT scan at his Oncology appointment ... as you can imagine i'm really not looking forward to today, but am trying to stay positive and keeping everything crossed

The packing is hopefully still going well LOL ... having to schedule posts now, just finding it difficult to find time to post on my blog.  So, here i am on Saturday morning sat in bed being a lazy mare LOL. 

I have a folder full of cards that i need to show, so here's one of them ...

I know i followed a sketch for this card and i know its probably too late to enter it into that challenge.  But i can't for the life of me remember what flippin' challenge blog it was for!  Clearly, too much going on at the minute for my brain to function properly ... or that's my excuse anyway!

Altered Nesquik Tub

I needed a box to put some chocolates in that i'd made for our friends birthday.  I didn't want to use my cardstock so decided to root around in my recycle bag in the kitchen and this is what i found ....

After having a little fiddle with some paper and cutting some flowers out of a scrap peice of leather this is what it looked like ....

Digital Delights

I was lucky enough to win some of the images from Louby Lou at Digital Delights and made these cards, one  for Rylee's birthday what seems to be ages ago now and the other for my nephew Declan's 18th on 15th August.  I'm getting really behind with sharing my cards on here and blogging in general, so i've decided to schedule a few posts now while i wait for the eviction to take place on Big Brother.
