One more day to go...

Well here we are having fun at Lepe Country Park. Bit of a cloudy, windy day but it was good to get away from the neighbourhood.

Came home with a good collection of shells.

Roll on Sunday morning is all I can say at the moment. I'm feeling very, very tired at the moment.

I so would NOT have another child now, very glad I ended at three. :)

Can't wait for some energy to get back to crafting.

I Will Survive...

Well, I'm currently mothering 6 kids and think I'm in the groove now. I've heard from sis and bil and they've arrived safely at their destination, everything seems to be going well.
Tomorrow my other sis and her two dd are coming over for the day, should be a nice distraction.

Personally I haven't accomplished much else apart from endless feeding kids and even more endless washing up! :(
Oh I tell a lie, I've done two machine loads of washing and a pile of ironing this afternoon.
However... what about some crafting in the evening? How will I summon the time and the energy to create anything. I'm desperate to get on with scrapping or a bit of mixed media art.
I feel I'm getting very friendly with the sofa and TV at the moment. :)

Ciao

Less than 24 hours to go...

Well, I'm counting the hours. This time tomorrow I'll be in the thick of it... this time next week, I may be a gibbering wreck!!! :0

I'll have this beautiful lot above.

New Beginnings

Another day of the school holidays over with. I did get rid of Maisie unexpectedly to a friends house round the corner this afternoon.
It's the time of day I dread now - getting the kids to bed without too much fuss. They all have to be away with lights out by 8pm or I start getting too stressed. Plus I have plans to scrapbook some more tonight and finish what I started last night. I discovered the fun of machine stitching on layouts.

Have to get an early night tonight as very tired at the moment, I always get into bad habits during the hols because I don't have to get up early in the mornings. Tomorrow needs to be a major clearup around the house before Saturday and a week of looking after 6 children 24/7!!!!!!!!!

I've just signed up for the free class Colorful Summer on BPS today and will find some time to listen to the teachers involved. I could do with kickstarting a bit. Fedup with trying to scrap my old, old pre-digi photos at the moment and need a reward.

Right, off to grab the bull by the horns i.e. 'Alice' :(

I'll be back...
