I have a poorly laptop :(

My laptop is going to die soon. I am trying so hard not to use it :( And this is sooooo hard as normally it's on all day long and I dip in and out to my emails. Apologise to all of you who thought I had dropped off the edge of the earth. I haven't honest.

I have missed skirting round your blogs and catching up with you all through emails and forums! I want to hear all about your trip Michelle :)

I took my first two full classes at Sugar and Spice on Sunday, I hope you all liked them. And thank you to Nina for the nice note welcoming me early on Sunday morning when I got there to set up! It made me smile :) The jacobs ladder class did cause alot of giggles... when a few of us had to unstick them a few times or we'd of sent you home with a huge drinks coaster! The house stitching LO went down well and i'm looking forward tro seeing them with piccies in and of course the new LO's you make with the stitching and someof the ideas Jayne was coming up with were fabby!!

I also have a hetic few weeks with work. Since Kev officially breaks up today but then is going in for a few days to tidy up and catch up with marking and tie up ends... I know we have a busy summer ahead of us. We have visitors this week in the shape of Grandad and Paul. I have work on Friday, Saturday and Sunday *phew* I'm going to be pooped! Monday is Studio Calico release day :) :) :) And I have a $10 off code for newbies... On Tuesday I have to post my Studio Calico CJ and I have two days of training at London Care. ( I am not looking forward to this. I have heard mixed reviews... ;) and tbh the whole place is pretty dire just recently) Thursday I have a free day *yay*! Friday is then the 1st of August (seriously where is the year going??) and is SoML release day *hooray for kits* (esp. Sara's) and I have work at Sugar and Spice! Then the Saturday and Sunday I have two demo~ing days at Fidgeons :) I am not going to stop. This is of course all mixed in with housework *ha ha*, childcare, scrapping time and trying to be a dutiful other half *PMSL*...

Well... gotta get on with the mountain of ironing, washing up and of course lunch for my littlies :)

AWOL.

Ok, I have the most valid reason. Don't ever and I mean EVER download yahoo games! Seriously, my laptop nearly died. It has taken this whole time to clear it off and it's still not 100% right. I guess I have learnt my lesson :)

Well, apart from my nasty lil' virus i've been very, very, very busy! Working lots, trying to catch up with washing and general chores around the house. I have been busy thinking about all the birthdays we have coming up in September. We have an unbelievable 6 birthdays and so I have lots of present buying to do.

Emily finally went into her big girls bed, so far we have had no wandering at all!! Except she does call me in to put the duvet back on her at some un-godly hour ;) which is not so good... She has had her birthday present early, in the shape of a spangly pink bike ~ tasles, bells, hooters and all...!

I have been teaching at Sugar and Spice (www.sugarandspicecrafts.blogspot.com) and start my Sunday classes this week! Yay!! :) I am also busy getting the finishing touches to my Fidgeons Demo~ing day on August the 2nd and 3rd!

And of course I have been inundated with beautiful goodies from this special laydee www.story-kits.com/store She really does have the best kits ever. Thank you Sara! x
