AAAh ... more exciting days

My oh My !!! Just when I thought I was going to have a quiet last week ...

Monday morning started with the arrival of 3 very large boxes ??? OOOoh now who could have ordered all that stuffs ??? Couldn't have been me could it ??? (AAAArgh how the heck am I going to get all this back to SA ??? And I soooo want it all there now !!! Not next year or so when the next container arrives !!! ;-)

I didn't even get a chance to check/play/ or oogle my stuffs cos I was off out with frozen muffins in hand to Ann's for coffee ... that started at around 11am ish and I left her house at 5pm !!!! (that was one hell-of-a-cup of coffee ... well tea actually I'm off the caffeine at the moment !!!) Good thing too cos after all the tea I did consume I'd 'ave been bouncing off the walls if it was coffee LOL.

Great to see you again Ann, thanks for the gossiping, the 'counselling' LOL, the tea, the USB adapter thingy (now I have no excuse for the photos & Paul's laptop etc !!!) and I am sooo lucky to have such a great friend who would give me Part 3 of Triskellion when she bought it for herself, but luvs me sooo much that she gave it to meee !!! (;-) Well it was only right after I introduced you to the Triskellion saga in the first place, and you bought me part 2 for last years birthday ... so this years is taken care of and according to the back of this book so is next year too ... (Part 4 due 2011)

By the time I got home, cooked some dinner it was past 8 and I still hadn't opened a box !!! but Paul & Kelsey walked in with the DVD Percy Jackson Lightning etc. etc... So we just HAD to watch that ... good job I know my Greek mythology !!! We reckon this is gonna be America's answer to The Harry Potter super-saga ... (don't forget where you read that first LOL)

Today was a late start ;-) only woke at 8.30 am, that's half a day gone for us normally (PMSL) ... opened boxes of craft purchases ...ooooh... aaahhh, phew... want more, want more !!! Then mum and I picked up Irana and we were off to Dobbies Garden Centre for 'a mooch around' and lunch ... BAD NEWS for the CC there then ... even worse once I found Cotton Traders ... SALE !!!! and then they didn't have all the rugby shirts I was looking for so they told me there was an even bigger Cotton Traders at McArthurs Glen (aka East Midlands retail outlet !!!) = very very bad news for the CC .... Let me just tell you this ... I soooo wish I had found that place sooner ... (Paul said damn ... he was hoping I wouldn't find it at all LOL, and actually good thing I only have 3 more shopping days left ... and no more space in the suitcases !!! and he's refusing to pay for excess luggage... may just have to do a bit of 'feminine bribery gals ' ... SA crafters remember I'm doing it for you ROFPMSL)

AND I bumped into the one and only Liza Rukas at McArthur ... how cool was that ... I was squeezing in a cuppa in between purchases ... this voice asks for a coffee and I just knew I knew that voice ... and there the darling was ... How fabulous was that then ??? But she blew me away with her bit of news ... I was actually 'Gob-smacked' ... she's been made redundant from Craftime, how sad is that ???? (sorry sweeetie have to let everyone know ... someone may just be reading my blog and you may just be the kinda person they is looking for ...;- )

Well needless to say another late finish ... only got home after 8pm !!! Poor mum was knackered ... yes I dragged her around with me ... actually she sat from coffee shop to coffee shop LOL but ... she was with me. The answer was NO before I even mentioned tomorrow ..;-0
