Would you believe we came to build out last wardrobe tonight to finish bedroom and there was a packet of screws missing so its only half built, Dale going to nip to shop and get some on his way home from work tomorrow, makes you mad though.
I tried to stick coving up on my own while dale while building my bedside cabinet wrong (why did i leave him), and i couldnt quite reach high enough on tip toes on step ladders and coving fell and i got glue all over my new curtains:(

Funnily enough I was going to but you vanished off my buddy list so I thought you'd gone again!
I'll let you have the double-closing and opening- so you can have a bonus point!
Got to do something to break the boredom!

Good morning all
Tracie have sent you a Clive page, but worried its a differrent colour scheme from what you have been doing, hope its OK!
Thanks for comments on stained glass photos jane, I think the colours are lovely, hoping they will print out OK.
bad luck about curtains Weety, we are about to do our bedroom. I have all the bedding, just can't decide on wallpaper v paint
looks like I am going to be busy with family stuff for heaps of teh CC weekend :(, this happened last time. I am really torn, i want to sit at the computer and scrap, but i can't stop living family life, in order to scrap it! I guess, I will have to catch up in the evenings, especially as I have your kit Weety (but no chipboard yet, hope it arrives before the CC)
weetabix
21-04-2008, 08:56 AM
chipboard is being posted out today Claire, it arrived Friday.
Shame your going to be so busy but you can in the evening see most of the classes by then so just do the ones you like most!

Looks like Clive has developed and very big alter ego. Just because I made you a shield with 'Sir' on it doesn't mean in the least little bit that you are famous now I know you are just a head but if you get any bigger nothing will fit you. so be gracious in you Sirship. :lol:

Don't worry Mary - I have documented Clives early years for Tracie - he was not always so grand! :ph34r: being reminded of his family back home in Indonesia might bring him down a peg or two!
However I expect the idea of a whole book dedicated to himself is what is causing the problem. I guess there are not many nuts that have this!

DQ has just received her stash swap- I think some kid has packed up her mums entire stash collection as the box is the size of about 6 pizza boxes and cost 0ver £6 to post!
Don't worry Mary - I have documented Clives early years for Tracie - he was not always so grand! :ph34r: being reminded of his family back home in Indonesia might bring him down a peg or two!

AHH no thats a problem. I wrote a biography for Clive and stated that he came from Indonesia, i did not know that Clive had been tell people he came from St kitts which is in the Caribean. he really should get his story straight!
The bulk of the worlds coconuts are produced in Indonesia, but who knows, with that garish colour scheme he likes maybe he is from the lovely island of St kitts!
tigerlady
21-04-2008, 02:38 PM
More people die each year in Thailand from being hit on the head by coconuts than from tiger attacks! That was random!!!!!
Maybe his Mother was on holiday when he was born ....or St Kitts might be his birth name and Tracie changed it to Clive when she adopted him?
I really should be doing housework!!!

I'm with you on that score. Salads have to have lots of lovely stuff in mayo before I'm interested.

AHH no thats a problem. I wrote a biography for Clive and stated that he came from Indonesia, i did not know that Clive had been tell people he came from St kitts which is in the Caribean. he really should get his story straight!
The bulk of the worlds coconuts are produced in Indonesia, but who knows, with that garish colour scheme he likes maybe he is from the lovely island of St kitts!
He's got St Kitts written across his head Claire - my geography never has been up to much!!:lol:

looks like I am going to be busy with family stuff for heaps of teh CC weekend :(, this happened last time. I am really torn, i want to sit at the computer and scrap, but i can't stop living family life, in order to scrap it! I guess, I will have to catch up in the evenings, especially as I have your kit Weety (but no chipboard yet, hope it arrives before the CC)
Me too, Claire, but am sure we'll have fun in the evenings!
I did get it. I haven't put them up because 1. I've forgotten what order and 2. I'm still waiting for Zahra's
And you will be for some longer, too :ph34r:
I could be going out on a limb here Hilary but I think photos would be a good idea:P
Oh Tracie, you're so old fashioned! :rolleyes:
nearly done my mystery i find it comical hope the others do
I don't find mine at all comical, just a very tenuous comic link!!!!

I don't mind - I really have made a start on it! Honest, just you know when you get stuck?!.....will really really try and finish this weekend - DH is away so although I have 100% DD, when she's in bed and in the evenings, it's me, all me baby!

Thanks, it is good - DH lost 5 lbs last week - as many in one week as he had accumulated in the previous 5 or 6!!! C was mega sick about 20 mins after going to bed, just settled her now, so am pooped also!
Your restaurant experience sounds very good, when can I start C on that, then?!
Quick question - when DD is in bed and tired, I stroke her face with the back of my hand just to settle her. When she is really tired or wants more soothing, she reaches out for my hand and then strokes it across her cheek, eyes, nose etc. I really want to scrap it, but no photos - more the moment/imtimacy - any ideas please?

the only thing I can suggest is to see if she will do it while sitting on your lap then you would be able to set the camera up and put it on self timer.

another 8 years to go.... it will flash by, though to be honest as i went out for a huge indian for lunch today i had to force myself to eat the meal tonight so as not to disappoint ds. I had a stuffed full tummy sitting doubled up at an kids ikea table and chairs, but he had chosen to give dh and me a resturant meal complete with romantic music and wine testing (would you like to test the wine madam (pour dribble drip spalsh whoops.... glad he has a very dark carpet and not a cream one!)so i had to . I did very nearly burst open!

No, no photos at the moment, she's such a little poser that I'm not sure I could take photo and as soon as bottle is finished or I stop, she rolls onto her tummy, sticks her bum in the air and goes to sleep!

I'll be at Whitby with 'the girls', and of course my camera, now i realise EXACTLY how important photos are!
have a great day everyone, i'm off to work.

:D I overheard 2 women in a shop saying that it is illegal to allow a child under 8 to make a cup of tea(ie use a boiling kettle) anyone else heard this?
Good morning all!
Hilary, I am sure that this is wrong becasue part of the Brownie hostess badge is to make a cup of coffee and tea, you can be a Brownie from 7 and I am confident that the GG association would never allow anything illegal!

Mary Buttons
22-04-2008, 12:05 PM
Hi Claire, Clive seems to be getting above his station at the moment so perhaps what you have written about him will bring him down a peg or two :lol:
Mary Buttons
22-04-2008, 12:06 PM
Glad you are feeling so much better. Shame that you now have so much work to catch up on though

Morning ladies
Clive behave yourself - you may have been knighted but you're still just a coconut:nono:
Hello Jane's mum (can we call you cherry for short?) glad you had a good weekend - I'm looking forward to seeing all the LOs you produce from the photos you take while we're all cybercropping
Claire your page arrived today - it's fabulous!
Kat - where ever you're going have a good day
Jane - well done chuck - much deserved though!
Weety - how's the tum? and you and Hilary - stink bombs??? at your age? I am shocked!!:lol:
Hello everyone else!

Hi Tracie - glad you like the page, very simple I'm afraid, but needed to fit in all those words! Like your family LO too, very stylish!
eClaire
22-04-2008, 12:27 PM
Whoopie, my chipboard has arrived from Weety's kit, so I'm all ready for your class now Weety! Will it be OK with a colour photo for your class? I was thinking of using this one? which i posted before, but I thought the pink hat would work with your papers
TracieDoodle
22-04-2008, 12:28 PM
Oh Claire that photo is soooo cute!!
Mary Buttons
22-04-2008, 12:29 PM

22-04-2008, 12:55 PM
Well see it doesn't happen again and As for the rest of you I am not at all pleased that you have disappeared when I need you.
OOh Clive you need to start being nicer to us all or we'll tell Weety to cut off your computer access and you won't be able to go on any more of those dodgy web sites or surf for mail order brides!!!

Typical- I come back and you all push off!
No problem with the lump- it's a blocked sinus duct or similar so nothing to worry about. Had my check up and xrays while I was there so that's me clear for another 6 months.
Having mac+ cheese for lunch but the heat from it has buckled to tray I've carried it on so I guess it's too hot to eat!
Mary Buttons
22-04-2008, 01:04 PM
So glad it wasn't anything to worry about Hilary. I am still here at the mo shouldn't be though as I do need to get some fresh air and exercise.
tigerlady

Yes, it's a beautiful day here. Just doing some online banking and pottering about.

done the weekly (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=158066&cat=500&ppuser=26292)
didn't do the celebration theme but it's still 25 pts so that's ok:P
Really should make the most of the day - got to get everything ready for the weekend and I still haven't made a start:( got to get out at some point this week to get some more glue runners too - don't want to run out mid crop:wacko:
tigerlady

No, it'll drain when it's ready to.
eClaire
22-04-2008, 01:24 PM
I expect your chipboard will arrive soon Mary.
Thanks all for photo comments, I was worried that the blurred bits of snow ruined it, but it really was snowing, so hopefully they add to it.
Good news about your sinuses Hilary and yes it is good to almost be back to normal. Can't remember the last time I was so ill as to call in sick to work! Its just a shame that my work waited for me to come back, it would be nice to have a job where someone else coped and carride on when you were away!
Unbelievably, DD1 has toothache 9first time in her life) and I have to go to the dentist with her tonight.
DH away on business, so I might be able to stay up and scrap the weekly tonight

Mary Buttons
22-04-2008, 01:31 PM
Super LO Tracie I have left you a comment. Do like that font. will have to see about another Alpha from QK soon me thinks though I am waiting on Diesel.
Talking of glue runners I should get some of those in the post too and I expected them today so hopefully they will all come tomorrow.
Mary Buttons
22-04-2008, 01:32 PM
Right I am really going now I only came on the computer again to check bank balance and I have of course automatically clicked in here. :lol:
tigerlady
22-04-2008, 01:36 PM
I've still got about 20 tubes of my super Dutch glue so I think that should do.
I was going to make a start on Shimelles page a month thing but I'm confused. She starts with a calendar blank but then covers up all the dates- doesn't that make it a note book rather than a calendar?!?
I'd rather make a proper calendar for next year cos I've got a couple of those which don't have days written on and can be used for any year.

22-04-2008, 01:36 PM

That bag looks really something special much better than when it was pink
Is this some sort of revenge lo?
Sounds like it.
Hi I am back have had a lovely afternoon, walked down to Asda by the lane and took lots of photos. mainly of flowers as the butterflies and birds just wouldn't play ball with me all except two black birds who were very obliging.
Hope my stuff comes tomorrow will have to check with Scrapajack for the glue run thingies. she said she would post them to me but haven't received them either.
note to self stop panicing :lol:

Beautiful, Mary. I love blackbirds-they seem such gentle birds. Can't decide it that's a male with a few brown feathers or a female who's very dark!

I've been thinking about that and reckon it's so we can't remove the evidence if we're nasty/libelous to anyone! At least with kids the nastiness isn't usually serious.
Where's all this come from?!! :wacko:
But we can change it so that doesn't hold water. That's what I was thinking, although confused....
Claire that photo will be fine nice shot.
Haven't picked mine yet - chipboard arrived today.
POOPED today again, but lots of driving. DH got upset today as he went to visit a friend we've not seen for ages, they have our cats' sisters and one of them is identical to Gilly, who's been missing, and he saw her, thought "it's him" and then got really upset when he realsied where he was..... :(
