I have also decided to stay on one dt team until my time runs out...i will have a 6 month break from the other...hugs to you deb, and will look forward to finishing my dt stint after the 6 months...will be better able to cope i think...my other dt spot is due to run out in a month...i love doing dt stuff...but life has just overtaken and i can't give %100 to it at the moment..thanks so much to the lovely girls that have been understanding...xxx
I have decided that i love doing other crafts, i crochet, knit and sew...i have not done as much as i like and will not pump out as many layouts so i can achieve this...i ....am now sewing a quilt and crocheting a little cushion cover for jacob...i love to do these things, especially in the leadup up winter!!!!will show them to you when i finish if you like...lol...
So, thankyou to all the encouragement and understanding....
Next...lucky me...look what i got off trudy today...I was the lucky winner of her giveaway...yeah...they are even more gorgeous in the flesh...Trudy...you will laugh, but i was even excited about the cereal box cardboard you used to protect them...lol...I have not travelled very widely and we don't have that cereal in ...australia...lolxxxx
So....thankyou!!!
Finally...this morning I had to get some greenery for maddie to take to school to make wreaths for the anzac ceremony....on my way out of the garage, minus my glasses and in a big rush, i ran into the bottom of the garage door....forehead first...my eyes watered!!!!lol...i cried!!!! connor saw me do it and he ran to get an ice pack...well...frozen vegie pack!!!!so hi tech here!!!
I have had a headche all day!!!! the bones in my face are very tender...ouchies!!!!can't smile too hard and frowning hurts soooo much!!!there is a ittle bump and i am hoping that the little bruising i have doesn't turn ugly!!!!!
Yea yeah...i know i am a wuss...but geez...it really hurts...

Mandy, Thanks for sharing your experiences with art:) So great you won Trudy's give-away, fun! I like how you are experimenting with different styles/inspirations... good idea. It is all new to me!
( jumped over from Trudy's)
Hi Friend! How was I not a follower?! Sorry, thought I was . . .
Really, I want you to know that I think you are such a cool mommy - I read your comments on Perpetual Backburner and almost cried - how amazing you are - and no one really knows what another has on their plate. I am so impressed by how much you DO do!!! I will keep touching base and thank you too for your sweet comment, Kristin xo
BTW, may I ask what dt is? Is it Design Team? Dumb question perhaps, but I wanted to know, Kristin xo
Congrats on the win! How fun! I can totally relate to the DT thing. Sometimes it is good to take a bit of a break. It is so hard to do though! :)
I sounds like you are making all the right decisions to a better life Mandy! Do the things you love doing. I can take a couple of pointers from you... spending way too much time in front of the comp! Good luck and take care. xxx
Mandy, you are so inspiring! Good luck and I hope you are feeling better.
but frozen peas are frozen! perfect for stopping the bruising in a house full of kids :)
thanks for the blog visits
