well i started my NEW job today, and i have to say I LOVE IT... for those of you that don't know, 3 weeks ago i was offered a job at a wonderful little store called Threads and More at Bardon.. after accepting it, then knocking it back, then a few more phone calls and negotiating, i accepted the job, and i have to say i am so glad i did.... i am in my element. As most of you know i am pretty crafty, and i will admit pretty darn good at it too.. So today on my first day, besides learning the obvious...how to open the shop, turn on computers, coffee machine, etc, etc, etc, i made my first necklace....yes and it was gorgeous!!!, i also got to play with a little braiding thing which looks like a hexagon and you rotate the threads to make a shoe lace, or you can do it with beads, to make necklaces, and many many other things... well....i love everything about this place, the staff are fantastic....and i am the youngest there (for a change), the customers are fantastic, and the stock in the shop is totally gorgeous..i am so happy.. I think i will have a very happy and long working life with these people!!!!
Scrapbooking.... well i have entered 4 challenges this month and have gotten 1 first, 1 second and 2 thirds, cant complain really, and have also had one of my layouts titled faeries accepted for publication, in scrapbook memories!!!! toot toot for me!!! you can see the LO on my other site (just click to see) i love it so much and i am so glad that they do too....
well Miss Hiccup has a cold at the moment, lots of little parcels coming out of her nose and mouth!!! but i have to say for someone who is miserable, she still has a mighty fine spirit about her!!!! little monster/angel!!
Master Dozer has no football training this week as we have a bye for our next game (yay, finally some points up on our table)...you have to get them anyway you can!!!!!! The poor little blighters still have not had a win!!! and boy do they get shirty lately....some of them are down right little turds!!! but as long as the boys remember that this is a game for fun and exercise not sheep stations (mind you some other people not just the boys, should remember this also), they just keep plodding along...at least they have gotten out of the habit of running like a crab on the field!(sideways) and have started to go forward, which is a start!!!
The cheque, is yes you guessed it, still working hard and lots of long hours, hopefully with me now working more hours, he can cut back on sundays at least!!!!!
the dooroos, have just returned from their galivanting around the pin point state (tassie), with a bag full of goodies, a belly full of gourment tucker, a camera full of happy snaps, and a head and heart full of memories, they absolutely loved it, which i knew they would....it is such a wonderful place!!!
the pinq's are doing well, miss pinq had a little medical scare, had a little procedure and thank god, was all OK...kissies to you lady pinQ x x x x x x

Glad you're happy at work. If you love your work then that certainly makes life a whole lot easier.
I probably won't be stopping by, not being crafty AT ALL!
