Busy!

Well yesterday and today have been busy!

Yesterday I went to work at Pandoras in Basildon - well I say work but it's so enjoyable! And Sandra's mum is such a sweetie. I managed to get a little scrapping done and have a nice chat - hardly seems like work...

I am also slowly, although it's quickening now... in mad Harry Potter mode. This book is strange. I have found it one of the hardest to read and have finally got 'into' it. It seems to move much quicker than any of the others...I am really enjoying it though. I always read the Harry Potter books and kinda wish they WERE true. Some of it is truly magical and amazing. I am disappointed alittle though as there is no Neville ... yet, maybe he will show up soon...?!

Today we went to get Ben's photograph taken. We had a big canvas of Emily at this age (actually it was alittle before now) ... we just wanted two large pictures of them at a similar age. He was very, very good. He is very good anyhow. Always happy. Always smiling. And then we had one of the pair of them together and one of Emily. I managed to buy a few birthday gifts too and a few bits for us.... And we had a pizza hut lunch - yum!

I have then sat and read Harry Potter on and off until now - between tea times for Emily and Ben and between playing with them and then putting them to bed. I haven't achieved much scrapping. I've had the stuff out but just haven't had any drive to do anything. I made a little pirate mini album yesterday but need some more black cardstock for the inner pages and have NO idea of what i'm going to put into it. I wish I knew. I'm hooked on making mini books/albums and then not filling them... I don't even know what i'm going to do with them all either. I just know they give me a sense of creative achievement when i've finished them - and that is the point of scrapping.

I signed up for Shimelle's new class too - i'm pretty excited about it. I super love her her atm... along with a huge list which is longer than my arm. But those who know me already know what I like and i'm sure you know who floats my boat...

p.s. Nina has been talking about having her tongue pierced. I had mine done a L-O-N-G time ago now. But things like that are addictive. Same as tattoos... i'm thinking about it. I have done since I had my second one... A week after my first. They are SUPER addictive. I just have nothing yet that I want done. I wouldn't have names... I wouldn't have things that are 'in' now cause you're stuck with them forever. Maybe i'll never get another but you can be sure that if I do - i'll still want 'just' one more...
