A bowl of cherries

Oops forgot about the blog already and it's only two days after I created my first post! Not really helped by the fact that I had a lovely long lie in (oh the joys of school holidays) and then couldn't prise Josh off his online game.

Ended up doing a bit of crafting with Chiara and Mia, who enjoyed a blissful session of cutting and sticking as they each covered a little notebook. Chiara has decided to use hers to create a Summer Holiday diary. Hmm, will have to think of some interesting things to do in the absence of a holiday away this year. Highlights of the week so far apparently are choosing a carpet for her new bedroom and the discovery of a caterpillar in the garden.

Spent some time doing boring housewifely stuff. But at least Len noticed when he came home from work. Hardly surprising since you can now SEE the carpet in the office/craft room (everything off the floor is now piled on the table), including being able to see the colour of the carpet as I managed to get the hoover around the room without a stray brad or other embellishment causing the power to cut out.

2.00 am again. I really need to start getting to bed earlier. Well off to carry out my normal Thursday night (okay well Friday morning) routine of doing the wages, putting the washer on and feeding the cats.

Oh meant to say, thanks to Clare for providing a great tutorial on getting a new header onto the blog. I chose a photo of a bowl of cherries (heavily cropped) as a nod to the scrapbooking online user id I use of Fruitysuet. This was one of the photos for my entry into the Worldwin photo competition over on Scrap That Moment (next job - learn how to do links!). I was chuffed to bits to win the comp and the lovely Lynnette is sorting me out my prize courtesey of Worldwin.
