HATING WORK never really loved it but was ok for the last couple of years

now all we do is scanning and scanning and scanning and the bosses keep saying think how we are helping the patients - load of crap they can't believe that we fall for this crap x

had a nice meal for keirs birthday at portabello's tamworth

it was a bit expensive though.

FANTASTIC BIRTHDAY CAKE MADE BY ALISON THOUGH X 

I AM LOOKING SO OLD AND FAT 

ALTHOUGH DON'T LOOK TOO BAD IN THIS PHOTO I THINK X

Where has the last number of days gone

Been on holiday from work - didn't go away - BIG mistake.  Had a bad week, everyone seemed to be uptight and stressed.

Keirs Birthday tomorrow - love you son.

Had luna monday, tuesday, wednesday - thursday morning when her mom went to the dentist and then we all went out to lichfield thursday afternoon.  Then Friday morning for the choosing of the flowers for the wedding.  Saturday, last night - was a meal at Portobello Restaurant.  It was nice, can;t say it was outstanding  just had pizza - and it was £200 with the fresh cream we bought for the chocolate cake that alison made for Keir for his birthday.  It was so lush, but I felt so sick by the time I got home.

Korin never seems to be quite with us when she's out with tod I really hope things are good for her right now and she hasn't made a big mistake.  She had the week off too and goes back to work tomorrow but I haven'[t really seen much of her apart from her looking after luna whilst I had things to do.  my house is a tip.

I am now off monday tuesday wednesday and no luna as they are going on a holiday for 5 days, I hope they have a wonderful time.  I love them all so much.  AND snow is threatened - bloody weather it has gone exceptionally cold.

I need to get accounts done for the accountant and the drawers all sorted and shredding done but apart from that and getting my wasing and housework up to date I have the rest of the time to scrap.  AND I really must must must get back on my diet - or healthy eating regime and lose this half a stone, bought a top for Christmas today it is tight it is a size 12 - if i lose half a stone I will be able to wear it and it will look nice for Christmas day - GILL JUST DO IT !

THE CAKE - WOWSERS

Little miss layout I did yesterday

Little miss layout I did today - I am running out of photographs to scrap so I hope they take loads on holiday and send them to me x 

we had to take little salem to the vet this week

he is as skinny as skinny can be, I don;t know if we are cruel as his fur was all in matted clumps poor little man.  BUT the vet said it wasn't cruelty just that he won't let you get near him and he is very old and probably thyroid troubles..............he's still eating ................ probably has kidney problems.  I feel so guilty not cuddling them like I used to - I try to spend a little time with them but having luna too and the cats are so dirty with cat litter etc my house is dirty because of cat litter and the dog constanly via ing for attantion too - it's been qutie a nightmare.  I am so tired and worn out.  Got to get my house into some kind of shape soon.

If Salem lasts the weekend out I will be surprised.  I really don't want him to suffer butr I can;'t bring myself to have him put to sleep whilst he still can get around and eats and has little cuddles her and there. 

got to get some sleep.   I think more than anything else its the fact that we ahve had them 17 years and 17 years has absolutely flown by.  I love the cats dearly.  poor little mites. x x x

Me SMART - Nooooooooooooo

But I only just gone and sorted out bluetooth on my phone to my computer - whoopeee dooooooo = took me bloody ages but I done it and all by myself..   

So a few days ago I suddenly realised that my 'Kit subscriptions' were building up and I wasn't using the stuff that I had and still going out and buying more paper etc - my spending has been a bit better apart from this week because we are on annual leave from work, haven't gone anywehre AGAIN and so I paid for Novembers subscription to MTS - plus I bought a few more bits of ebay AND yet another alphabet AND as I cancelled the cats insurances I will be saving £70 a month - they've just put it up to nearly £100 a month so - I'd be saving that anyway...... more about poor little salem later. 

So a hectic week - Washing is piled up the wall so will have to tackle that tomorrow and Sunday although I don't have Luna monday tuesday or wednesday this week coming, so I can get all that sorted then too - but will have to do a bit of washing and housework etc. 

I need to get accounts done for Kay too - 1 million and one things to do so worn out.  Anyway, back to subscriptions and not using them so these layout will all now be done from the kits I have so I am no wasting money on extras.

NO more Alphas.  No more scrapbook stuff, I am going to use what I have and only buy the two kits per month.  I do though have a gelli plate on its way - I can't wait x

oh I might have gone and ordered another die set of flowers too which will make little flowers like these :

Mind The Scrap CC - 19th - 21st October.

It was really good...... only managed 7 challenges of the 17 that were posted ...... as I was out doing shoppinig and doing washing and vacuuming and got up late two days running - or later than usual, and had to go to Aldi.  Saturday I went out with Keir only for a Starbucks and then back to ours and then Sunday (today) we went to Monty's play barn and was there about an hour - before that we went to Korins for a cuppa and was there about an hour and Keir came there to meet ust.......now I have Luna for 3 days.  On wednesday I have my eye retina scan to go to - and Thursday we were going to Stratford for the day as Key is off and Korin too - then Ali wanted to come - which we were going to invite her anyway but hadn't got round to it = but find out that she has a dental appointment first thing so we may not set out until 11 am ish or even later !!  -  Friday morning Ali wanted me to go with her for flowers for the wedding so I am happy about doing that with her - and Saturday night we have Keirs Birthday meal - so I really must try and be good on my diet all this week - have had yet another bad weekend, non of my clothes will fit me at this rate !

Anyway, 7 layouts isn't too bad over a weekedn, a couple I think I don't particularly like ?  but I'm not too sure yet we'll see.  Another 12 x 12  album filled up too !

These layouts aren't in any type of order - just uploaded the 7 I have done x x
