the seasider


I think I posted some pics of our seasider train trip a while back....here's a layout I have done with a couple of the photos :-) Used some of the We R Memory Keepers Paper I got from SBO a few weeks ago, have wanted to use it for ages and finally found a use.

Retreat planning underway and some really cool treats in varying stages of completion!
Jase aka Chef Moss is dreaming up our menu for the Saturday night 'special' dinner.

Had a nice relaxed Queens Birthday Weekend finished off last night with pizza for dinner at a friends. Alicia's netball team got their 2nd goal this week for the season...don't laugh too much...it's funny to watch and they try so hard and are enjoying it...even if the other team got 24 goals! Our new aim is for them to get a goal per half rather than just 'a goal'!

Busy teaching, have picked up another class for an hour each day which I'm loving. Have taken a couple of Playcentre Workshops too for the adults wanting to gain skills for teaching at the Playcentres and have 3 more coming up this weekend and next week. Love that I still get to be a 'part' of Playcentre and I haven't had to leave it completely:-)

Smiles.

Go Alicia and her team - isn't it s shame when the teams in a league are mis-matched. We've had that in lots of sports. We just remind them to have fun. Hope she is enjoying it.

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...
