Update

I was going to upload more pics - but they are coming through so pixelated or something at the moment.... not sure what's up or if I've done something different????
Any way... the above pic follows my mum asking 'who will massage my feet?' & Ali & Kat had a ball rubbing some lotion on mums feet, the best bit was when they finished & jumped on the sofa with their feet on her lap & said 'it's our turn now!' - not what mum was planning at all!
I came back from Camp to an email saying I had got on the Scrap Of Faith Design Team which is very cool. I get to teach some online classes there in April & May & the concepts are going to be quite challenging in regards to related layouts & projects - something to really get me thinking! Perfect.
I found a great blog the other day with some topics/themes for taking photos & in the process developing photography skills - not sure why I'd never ventured into the 'photography' part of two peas but I'm learning heaps from all the posts there. I'm setting up another blog for these challenges - but need to sort out why my photos are coming out funny through photobucket first! Any ideas?
Been checking out some of the CHA stuff as Andrea is heading over there in a couple of weeks, part of me would love to go too & the other part thinks 'how stressfull' it would be so have fun Andrea :-)

Hmmm, I would love a foot massage right about now! Might go ask my kids if they want to indulge their poor mum ;-)

Congrats on getting on another DT! Well done! I don't know how you find the time for all of it, but I'm sure you'll enjoy being on that team. Sounds like a great place.

Purging

The stuff can take over.  My stuff was covering my work surface and much of the bedroom floor.  I had to do a big sort out. I was brutal.   Stuff...ready to go. I packaged it in some storage totes I had that needed a new home (I’m waiting for my new CTMH travel system to arrive) and listed it on s local trading site.  It’s gone now. It doesn’t look pretty but I have a desk space and things are organised. The rest of my supplies now fit in this cupboard. Since the ‘purge’ I have had the space to create.  It feels good and it’s great to be able to get to my desk. A few pages made since the tidy up...and a box of 20 cards!

my week so far...

This week is turning out great!  Having time on Monday (Otago Anniversary Day) to scrap with Lynley was just the best beginning!  Lynley was putting together some beginner class stuff that she intends to do soon – it looked great!  I got home to an email from The Scrapbook Outlet NZ asking if I would be a casual/oncall designer for their Design Team – of course I accepted – can’t wait to learn from Rach , Donna & Shani!  Then today I get an email from Jo (subeditor @ Up2Scrap ) accepting one of my submissions – I did send a few mind you so as you can imagine I’m buzzing!  I have packaged the LO ready to send tomorrow after Playcentre. Need to get back to reality though – Mum & Dad’s 50th Birthday this weekend, have to work out what I’m going to say, sort some table decorations & not to mention some way of sharing pictures of them when I only have Friday night & Saturday to do it!  Have to do some Playcentre Admin work this ev...
