Posh Dooo

In not very many weeks I'm going to a REALLY posh do....and have to wear REALLY posh shoes....and a REALLY posh dress. The problem is....the REALLY posh dress that is in my wardrobe doesn't seem to fit !! I swear it's shrunk !! No more choccy biscuits until the end of June.....I'm having withdrawl symptoms already !

Illustration Friday - lesson

Here is my submission for this weeks Illustration Friday topic - Lesson - how many did you have before you managed to pass ??

Work in progress

Thought I would post up a snapshot of some work in progress....its ages since I have designed any repeats....I'm a little rusty but really enjoying it....it's taking my mind off the never ending school holidays and the relentless energy of my 8 yr old !!

Lazy Day !

Its my birthday today so I decided to have the day off and chill....in the school holidays....so far I have played football...darts....wallie ( involves a ball and a wall and mums never win ! ) ...and it looks like its Wii Sports this afternoon !!! I need a lie down !

Room for one more !!

We have finally talked the big grumpy one round to the idea of getting a family dog....yeah !! Am thinking Springer....that should keep him busy !!

SUNSHINE !

Its official !....the SUN is SHINING in Lancashire !! Yeah ...

I love giraffes !

I love giraffes....was just looking through some old photos of our trip to Chester Zoo....can't wait to go back....apparently there's a good zoo at Dalton in Furness where you can actually feed them...will have to arrange a visit when I get a spare day.....that would be sometime in 2012 then !!
