its been a while

since I last posted but this weekend on UKScrappers has been a cyber crop with lots of classes and challenges to do so if you dont mind I'll just share a few of the layouts and projects I've managed , all are various classes and there's still more just have to find the time to get them on here.

How very naughty of of me.............

to have left soooo long between posting again (what's new?)

well thats March nearly over for another year and as the saying goes its certainly going out like a lion see the damage to this tree that WAS in my back garden the left is the tree now and the one on the right gives an idea of how tall they were - anyway I say was because the tree is now in next doors, next door-but-one and a garden at the back .

Introducing our new family member

and here she is - as yet we can't decided on a name, although 2 are being toyed with - Pixie is the first but DD wants Toni, she's a lovely little cat, 4 years old and belonged to my daughter-in-law's sister, who has decided to move house and can't take her (she did have 6 cats altogether and is keeping 2) so homes had to be found for the other 4 this being the one my son thought I would like as she does have a resemblance to Puss from Shrek in real life.

So any readers out there help us choose her name should it be Pixie (she is rather small ) or Toni

Will check back later to see if any help is forthcoming with her name - unless you can think of something else you feel would suit her. Please leave a comment.

Later peeps

Okay so it was November when I last posted something

and to get up to date here's why. First my dad wasn't well - this involved trips to A & E for a difference of opinion by the doctors in 2 days then they decided that IV antibiotics would do the trick, so this involved going to A & E twice a day for 7 days for said antibiotics (this involved him going home with a cannula in his arm (working on the wards this would be considered an no no) anyhow the seven days of antibiotics seemed to do the trick but he was also on oral for a further seven days this taking us up to the week before christmas, but when we delivered the pressies for them (always christmas eve) Mum told me Dad actually collapsed the Sunday before WHAT and she never said anything so told her if it happens again to ring 999 and get him to A & E, so what happens? 8 am Christmas morning the phone rings and its a neighbour of Mum's to say that they've taken Dad away in an ambulance unresponsive !!!! so off to A & E and hes laid there on a trolley looking for all the world like he's had a stroke with a definate right sided weakness and what do doctors diagnose - a bloody urine infection - so he's discharged just about managing to stand by himself with yet more antibiotics home - now working in the NHS I will defend it has I know how hard the doctors and nurses work and what pressures they are under with regard to beds and waiting times etc but why send someone who's obviously so poorly home????

Anyway enough of that secondly the pc got a virus (no antibiotics unfortunately) so that meant I got behind with a couple of cj's over on UKS, but thought I'd fixed it by going back to factory settings (meaning that I lost all my photos that where on here) and the addresses for said cj's, even after this drastic course of action I still couldn't log in so couldn't access the pm (private message) bit to get addys never mind post about all this, what felt at the time like the end of the world as I hate letting things get behind (so looking at definate negative ratings for these) but anyhow everything seems to be back on track thnkas to a lovely pc doctor who took the machine off to the pc hosptial for a week and brought it back working (!) well I can keep in touch with peeps now anyway.

So for now its Happy New Year (I know a bit late) but I'll get in front for next time.

Later peeps
