Today I have learned...

• that just staring at my "To Do" pile really doesn't achieve anything but hysteria :0(
• that I don't like it when my feet are too hot! Today is not a boots weather day!!
• that I'd rather be at home creating than at work any day!

Today I have learned...

* to step outside in the morning before getting dressed so I dress for the day and not my perception of the day!!!
* that I love, love, love my hair blonde {swoon!}
* that I have a good job
* that I have a lovely garden
* that I love September (I always knew this but it's great to have that reminder each year!!)
* that I have more scrapbook stash than I thought I had {blush!}
* that I NEED more scrapbook stash!!!!

Using my time effectively!

I've been off work today (and yesterday) with a rotten cold - sniff!
Yesterday I spent the day in bed and late afternoon on the sofa watching Harry Potter!!
After another lie in today I found a little bit of energy returning and so decided to put it to good use!
Only a month late I have finally completed my Learn Something New Everyday minibook! I love it!




















Lots to do before Sunday and my plan deadline!! Anything not done by then gets ditched so watch this space!!!

September 3rd

Here is my LSNE page for Friday. I was at work all day Friday and although a few eventful things happened there, none of them were something I really wanted to note in my minibook!

One silly thing that did stick in my head when I had a few spare minutes during my lunch break was just how awful my shop bought sandwich was!! It was all dry around the edges and really not good!! As I sat mulling and sulking about that I figured I should learn a lesson from that and make nice lunches for myself! Hence the lesson for today:

Food should be enjoyed and not just a necessity!

I'm using Shimelle's extra tips for creating from her Print and Cut labels.  Today I randomly selected to use a stamp on my page that I don't use very often.  As I don't stamp very often at all I had lots of stamps to choose from !! I used the scrummy strawberry one and the border stamp!

September 1st

Here is my first lesson! I've decided to make pages in different formats depending on how I feel creatively (and also how much time I have to create!!)

Preparing for class...

I've decided on my format for the new class over at Shimelle's and have distressed an old Collins filofax folder to use as the cover of my mini book!
I'm happy with the way it looks and am looking forward to class starting!

I'm starting this new course over at Shimelle's soon. It runs throughout September and there are places available so click here to join the fun!
