Monday 30th March

Day 87 (Saturday )

My puzzle piece for SuzieR on the arty farty jigsaw swap.

Loved the effect of this one and the fact that I used a photograph I took myself!

Day 86

Baby sat last night, kids were great, no problems and were both asleep by 8pm.

Aimee has a real fire although she doesnt use it now she is on her own. saw the bucket of coal and thought :-coal is supposed to be lucky isnt it?

So is taking the picture good enough or should I have rubbed it all over LOL

Day 85

I used the new binding machine at work to punch some holes on the side so that I could thread the ribbon through. Thought it gives a different look from round holes using the crop a dile!

Day 84

Walked into the churchyard in Stony Stratford today with Val while on our lunch break!

Cameras at the ready, we must have looked COOL (not) LOL

Day 83

Not that this is taking over my life or anything but......
Decided even after adding a few bits to puzzle peice n0-1 that I really wasnt pleased so took it all apart and started again!
This time I printed out a picture of a sea turtle swimming, cut round it using a craft knife and stuck it on the puzzle piece. I then printed a picture of water that I found onto a sheet of self adhesive printing film and stuck it over the turtle.
It looks like you are looking down at the water and seeing a turtle swimming up towards you. Much more pleased with this effect.

Day 82 (23/03/09)

Feeling totally inadequate!
Have signed up to do this puzzle swap on UKScrappers. Dont really know if I am doing these right! Or if they are good enough. Took a sneaky peek at one that someone has done for me on their blog page and it puts my attempts so far into shame!

Still need to do 4 more.

Day 81 Mothers Day 2009

Didnt know you could buy one of these at TESCO LOL

Aimee, kids and my mum joined me, Dave and Ants for mothers day. Had a fab time. I love having the family all together.

Friday 20th

It was Georginas last day at work as she is retiring to live in Southampton. A few of us went for lunch at The Marl Inn. This is the view from the restaurant, is it a man or a piece of wood Val???? LOL (yes definately a man we saw him move his arm!)
2 hours for lunch! To say the service was slow is an understatement but the food was worth the wait.

Thursday 19th

Got in from work today and was starving, cheese biccies and pickled onions filled the gap!

Weather starting to warm up so dave got the BBQ out ready. Looking forward to warm evenings sitting in the garden eating BBQ food and drinking chilled wine.......................................................
