but hey, you never know right?

Your Hidden Talent

You’re super sensitive and easily able to understand situations. You tend to solve complex problems in a flash, without needing a lot of facts. Decision making is easy for you. You have killer intuition. The right path is always clear, and you’re a bit of a visionary.

yes, we are still alive!!

I feel like i could just say ‘we are trying to move house’ and the majority of you out there would go

‘aaaahhhhh’ whilst nodding and thinking ‘rather them than me!’

It is such an uphill path selling and buying a house. why oh why is it so complicated?? I think its all to do with the amount of people involved. I think, if it was just us and the lovely couple that own the house we want to buy it would be a piece of luxury cheesecake….

but no, we have the mortgage advisor, the solicitors, the estate agents, the planners, the building societies and the banks. Get all those people involved in the same decision and it all goes slightly bizarre.

So that, my friends is what we are up to. It is just over two weeks till we hopefully complete and move. YIKES!!!!! That seems so little time but in my head i am still thinking ‘ah, sure we have loads of time’

and regretably scrapbooking has vanished from my radar for the moment. I so would like to get some done and it isnt really that i dont have any available time it is more like that i dont have the head space to sit and think.

But you know, this time will pass and we will look back with a great sense of achievement and probably a few more grey hairs but it will be worth it.

so instead of a wonderful scrap page to put on my blog…here is an idea of one..two little kids about 30 something years apart.

byeee for now

yep, reckon i would go for the ‘bowl’ hairdo anytime…heehee 🙂

not quite in the middle of our street…..

lookie look…

is up for rent….eeeek..

and no, it is not usually that tidy, you should see what was behind the camera 😉

and little mr Isaac chose number 18 from the comments placed on the RAK post. So Lori G email me your address and i will get something in the mail.

and go check this out and give yourself a giggle…..

baby

i have never really liked february, mainly because of the weather, dont get me wrong i actually love winter, i am a ‘cold’ person, i love cold frosty days and warm fires, going out all bundled up and feeling the icy wind on your cheeks, hot chocolate and snuggling in while the weather gets cold outside..love it. But here in this country..its just dreary, wet and bleak and that has always been how i have thought of february..

well, this year…its gone one better. it has been a tough month. We are in our third week of chicken pox. Poppy is covered from head to foot, and she hasnt been too well with it. Things have been heavy this month thats for sure.

Im starting to think i will never see anyone again! Friends..i shall return to circulation soon.:)

I am starting to get really affronted at the stares that the girls get because their spots are quite bad. One small child walked past Maisie in a shop the other day and said at the top of her voice ‘Mummy that girl has got chicken pox’ …..yeah, loving all the looks that got…

Anyways so we have been hiding out, cleaning the yard, playing shops, cooking, been to the zoo, jumping around in the kitchen to a bunch of tunes on the ipod and going to the park to feed the ducks…can ducks get chicken pox?

another sad departure this month was our Macbook pro. It has gone to applemac heaven. The bods at Mac are replacing it with one of the new ones, so Ben is very chuffed. Me, im kind of irritated at the bother and hassle it has caused..but hey, you gotta roll with the punches and there is something about Mac that is so good…that crossing back to microsoft just aint gonna happen in this house. 😉

so on that note, i was going to try and get some scrapping done and post some pages, ‘cos im missing it but all our recent pics are now on the back up drive awaiting our new mac and apparently i can access them so my lovely husband tells me but…well…that all takes extra time…..

so instead here are some pictures of my brave little kids…..

gotta love that waddle

not the most flattering pic of miss maisie but she had just woken up!!

the girls doing wheels on the bus 🙂

“look no spots!”

you know Queen’s “dont stop me now”

if you dont you can listen to it here

the bit where they get to ‘dont stop me, don’t stop me……oooh ooh’

Isaac sings ‘go shopping, go shopping…oooh oohh oohhh’

and then lets rip with some serious air guitar.

Heehee.

Im thinking freddie would be impressed. 🙂

i will be back to annouce winner of the RAK and yes we are at mark 2 for the chicken pox. Maisie has, i think 6 pox at time of report LOL
