Good Monday Morning Ladies,
Well I guess I can officially say to some of you that 'I will see you next week'!!!!!
Today's 'Man' Cards have been designed and composed by our Anne, the images are all by La Pashe,
they are totally hilarious, the more you look at them the more you see, different little 'quirky' things that just make you smile.
These are fantastic to use if you don't have dies, as you can build up the layers as much as you like, making the card look very dramatic, I am not sure how many layers you would need to achieve that 'builders bum' look that you can see on the mechanic picture.
The extra details that you get with these images make so much difference, the funnel for instance on the plumber card, the wire cutters on the tool bag card etc, aren't they just so fantastic and so much thought has gone into the all of the images, making it a lot easier to achieve that professional finish!!!
Thank you so much for sharing the card Anne, and for all of the others that you sent too. xxxx
Well Paul's parents are leaving at 10 am tomorrow, so I will be up and about early or i might let Paul set breakfast for all of them and i will limp out when I am ready, after they leave I will probably go for a nap!! hahaha
I hope that this is the start of a week brings you happiness,
love and hugs

Good morning Sandra and the Café Crew, hope you are all TickeyBoo and ready for the week ahead. Wow! only another week till we all meet up, all very exciting.
ReplyDeleteSandra hope the morning goes well and you get your guests fed and in their way.
ANNE:- your cards are brilliant, love every one. I don't do decoupage, I was tempted by these though, bought them and never used them. Quess what?? I really wish I had. I sent them to the school for the children to use, silly woman I am.
ANNE:- could you PLEASE send your contact details to Sandra so we can contact you to make arrangements for our "meet up" on Thursday.
Off to see what shenanigans you lot got up to last night.
We were out all day with the boys, had a fantastic day. Back to their house for Tea which John Jnr cooked (Audrey working). Boys help their dad so much, they set the table (just the kitchen one) also help with the preparation. Well Thomas helped with the preparation Robert entertained us. Boys back to school today after their Tattie Holidays.
Right folks, must get a move on. Monday is Big Clean at the Ranch. Got a load of washing in at the moment. Next load will be the bedding once I "tip" John out of the bed.
Maureen I hope you are feeling better today. Zoe is a little darling but she really did not need to share her germs ... did she!!
(((((hugs))))) in the baskets as usual, please help yourself. See you all later xxx
Have a nice day! Don't do too much! Xxx
DeleteMorning Ladies
ReplyDeleteAnne-your card are brilliant. I think we all know someone they would be perfect for.
Busy day yesterday, never made it back into the craft room. I collapsed on the sofa & started to read a new book (we have a book loan box at work which is great for me as I get through books very quickly) then I remembered the the new series of Law & Order SVU was starting at 10pm. I started watching this series years ago in Florida & loved it, I know it's not perfect acting but that's part of the attraction. Apart from Strictly on Saturdays I don't watch any other TV and wouldn't be too bothered if I missed them. Just don't take my books off me...!!
Well, another busy week at work. Only 2 new patients this weekend- 5 last week was so much extra work. I should find out when hubby's new desk will be delivered-probably tomorrow so I can craft this evening.
Michele
Morning to all who may pop in today
ReplyDeleteMorning Patricia it's nice to see you first thing and everything set and ready.
ANNE - Thank you so so much for your fantastic cards this Monday morning. They are quite something aren't they. I must also thank you for reminding me that I too bought some of these used them took photos of them and then completely forgot I'd done so. Nothing unusual about that these days but it was a long time ago. Must look for the pics to see which ones I did.
SANDRA - I'll be thinking of you sometime around 11.00 hoping that you are having a well deserved snooze. I should make it a well deserved SLEEP if I were you.
Dry here and it looks as though we have had a ground frost. I've only looked out of the window but of course my fearless one has gone on his journey for breakfast and so I'll get a good report upon his return lol. The birds are having a good feast. All the feeders etc were put out on Saturday and it certainly didn't get them long to find them. So all in all all's well over here.
I'll be looking in later to see what everyone is doing.
Hugs have been despatched. xxxx
Good Morning Sandra and Ladies, well managed to get o/h off on early train to London.
ReplyDeleteSandra I think the funnel is a plunger, remember Dad always had one.
Anne your cards are great ,love decoupage, the scenes are really funny.
Well cleaner today so time to tidy away all bits and pieces.all bedding washed and dried, did it yesterday as weather was dry and breezy.
Going to have a look what I can spend my C&C vouchers on, might order some of Sheena's Aqua tints, they are on 40%discount
Well I'd better get on, will pop in later for a cup tea.
Have good day everyone.
Lilian
Oooh Lilian I hadn't spotted the Sheena bargains, must have a look at those. I was going to buy some foam tape with mine, bit boring but I'm running out and it's the best value I can find. Have you seen the card pack as your members gift? I've ordered mine and it's been dispatched. Enjoy your day xxxx
DeleteGood morning Sandra and ladies. Sorry I wasn't in yesterday but I had an early start. Was up first of all at 3am couldn't sleep so peeled all the potatoes required for the day. I.e. Ones for the shepherds pie I had made the base for on Saturday that was going to Perth, and the ones for dinner for 8, so yes loads. Was back up at 6 something , yes potatoes for pie on, they were cooked mashed and put on, veg for dinner dealt with plus a few other bits, then I was off to Perth saw to the pussy cats, left pie in the fridge for Tammy and them coming home. Next was asda shopping and home. Then it's was all go again. I am so glad we are away this weekend as I have had my fill of cooking in the last 5 weeks I have had either Shaun and Hannah here or them plus others, then Saturday went from 4-6 for tea. Then 8 yesterday well that was me. Shattered.
ReplyDeleteDon't know about Sandra going for a sleep I just wish I had slept last night, I think I finally went to sleep at 4.30. Just over tired I think, then again I did get some sorting out of my papers and stuff from boxes while I was restless
Anne, your card are fantastic, love them.
Jean, your card yesterday was gorgeous love that design.
Maureen, I do so hope you had a good nights sleep and that you are feeling a bit better, now you stay in bed. I know you hate doing that but as I will say again we need you better.
Sheila, I see from reading back that you are off for a few wonderful days with Margaret and George, enjoy every minute.
I am away to have my cup of tea and sit for 5 minutes then I am back on my mission to get rid of the things I don't use or need anymore. I will be sat on the sofa doing this - place will be a guddle but who cares. My back will hopefully be ok as I am sat. I have been told I can have space in the shed for 5 sets of the plastic storage drawers too, as long as I get rid of stuff. So these will be filled with all my baby basket things that are plastic plus the boxes of buttons and bead, and anything that will be ok out there.
Yes we are on count down for or fabulous wekend, I have the trip to Birmingham this weekend to do first. Could be doing not to be going to this but it's Charlies time to catch up with old friends. A few less than 2 years ago sadly. These things happen and you. Notice it more as we get older. Xxx
Hazel may I go for a nap please. You have tired me out oil. Please slow down a little. So pleased you've got some of the shed even if it is only a small piece. xxxx
DeleteOh he tried to take more than his fair share of the space but I nipped that I the bud. I haven't stopped sorting out since I started and I am still in a guddle, but I have been told to stop. 3 storage drawer sets out in the shed and I have worked out I can stack another small 3 drawer one on to one. I need to fine homes for some of these baby plates and bowls etc. but at the moment they can stay out there. You may go for a nap I think I won't take much rocking to sleep. Xxx
DeleteGood morning ladies.
ReplyDeleteSandra I hope you have a nice rest after your visitors leave, I hope you have had some enjoyable moments over the weekend. Are you getting a wee bit excited as the time draws nearer.
Anne I just love these cards, have used the great pit and football ground ones a while ago. Are these from a cd or ready printed. Whichever you have done them proud, brilliant.
Patricia, so glad you enjoyed your day yesterday sound smashing. I too need to tip my John out of his pit shortly. Hehe
Maureen, I hope you are feeling better and it's not gotten a hold on you,
Don't have any plans as yet for today but no doubt that will change, will pop back later,
Hope everyone is keeping well, no aches and pains but hugs are in the basket just in case they are needed.
Xxxxx
Good morning Hazel, I think we posted together, my word I'm tired just reading all this, I like cooking but it can become a bind when there's so much to do. Will you be waited on at the weekend, hope so.
ReplyDeleteTake it easy and hope you find some goodies amongst everything you are sorting out.
Xxxx
Morning all you lovelies,
ReplyDeleteThought I would just nip I quickly while I'm having my cuppa.
Anne your cards are fantastic and have put a smile on my face this morning.
Sandra hope you manage to get some rest -up time , take care dear lady.
Maureen oh I do hope you feel better today....it was so quiet in the cafe last night and I missed your shenanagins with your partners in crime.
Well take care all my lovelies see you on Friday have topped the basket up with hugs....ta-ta for now
Love and hugs
Sheila xxxxx
SHEILA:- have a fantastic time, please enjoy every minute.
DeleteBIG (((((hugs))))) xxx
Have a lovely time Sheila, xxx
DeleteHope you have a lovely time Sheila
DeleteHave a wonderful time Sheila xxxx
DeleteHave a lovely time with Margaret and George, Sheila. Hope th sun is shining - it is here! Xxx
DeleteHi Sheila, have a lovely break away, look forward to you telling us all about it when you come home
ReplyDeleteHugs Jean
Xx
Jean, Yes I will get waited on, but unfortunately it's only saturdsy night and Sunday morning this year. We normally go Friday to Sunday. As I am back down the next weekend we cut it short. I can't see me finding many goodies as 90% is to do with scrapbooking and way before I had my dies etc. embellishments by the bucketful, that now could be replaced with die cuts.
ReplyDeleteI have loads of 12x12 beautiful papers that I think I will make envelopes from for my cards. As I can't see me ever getting through them. But I might just find things I have lost. Since I moved things for Canadian visitor coming over for the wedding a few things are lost. X
Hello ladies,
ReplyDeleteJust to let you know that I do feel much better, but I'd like to get my hands on whoever has been kicking me in the kidneys and stomach!!!
Jean, I love your card from yesterday, it's beautiful, it must have taken ages to do.
Anne, your card today is so clever, like Jean's it must have taken ages.
Be good everyone, I'll comment more tomorrow, but that's me for today. I hope everyone is feeling fine.
Hazel, take it easy, you do too much.
Love to all, Maureen xx
How can you tell I'm still not "with it", Anne your cardS today are wonderful, not card!!!!! xxxx
DeleteHi my lovely Maureen
DeleteKeep warm and snug my sweetie and dose yourself up. Xxxxx
Good to see you and I'm so pleased you are a bit better this morning! You need to be fighting fit for the Retreat! Remember I'm next door to keep an eye on you!! Xxx
DeleteI shouldn't have reminded her of that ! It's enough to give Maureen a relapse!! Xxx
DeleteMaureen perhaps hot toddies are called for. xxxx
DeleteHello Maureen, so glad to see you in.
DeletePlease look after yourself we NEED you with us next week.

DeleteGlad you have removed it from the open Blog!! Have a super time on Thursday! Xxx
PS! I will send mine to you Anne once I have an email for you. Xxx

DeleteHi PATRICIA have a lovely day Thursday with Anne & I would like to add her to the birthday list too thank you xxx
DeleteThanks Patricia - you are a Star! Xxx. Again! Xx
DeleteIt seems to run in the family! Xxx
Morning Sandra & ladies,
ReplyDeleteAnne, your cards are so hilarious, they made me chuckle especially the 'builder's bum' one.
I do so hate the way young men? wear their bums on show with their trousers half way down and all manner of underwear to boot. Do they really not know what this signifies?
Had a lovely trip out with Jamie, fantastic lunch for a garden centre, Jamie bought some beautiful fish but we didn't get the tree, they only had the shrub variety and wanted £149.00 for that! Not in my price range so we are going to Monkton Elms GC on our next trip where I have seen it as a tree.
I am so lucky having Jamie as my grandson, he is lovely caring young man and would make a wonderful husband/father to someone one day.
Woke up this morning though with a horrendous headache, snuffly nose, coughing and sneezing. Whoever passed me this bug, please take it back.
Not very good for my visit to the historic Oxford tomorrow with Freda on the REA trip. Will have to dose myself up today to get rid of it.
Glad to hear your weekend with the in-laws went ok, Sandra, and I do hope that everyone pitched in to help. From the age of 10, my sister and I were doing all sorts of cooking, child-minding our younger brothers, cleaning and ironing for mum. My parents believed in bringing us up to be independent for ourselves and I have say it worked. All five siblings are very practical.
Enjoy your lie-in this morning, yo deserve it.
The only thing I will be useful today for is to sit quietly and sort my stamps out. Having catalogued them the other day, they are still on the floor in piles, according to designer, waiting for me to sort out the odd ones that I no longer need and which I didn't include in my list, I hasten to add. And some more cutting out which will be therapeutic as I am emptying my scrap box to cut out Christmas trees, deer, holly and ivy for the nursery my friend Jan works in. I do this every year for them for their 'gluing days' which they quite enjoy.
(((((hugs)))) to everyone else who is under the weather too.
Love 7 hugs
Cheryl xxx
Cheryl, please take it easy and stay warm, your another one we can't have ill. Your grandson sounds lovely, and very thoughtful how many young ones these days take time out to spend the day with their grandparents? Gosh that bush was expensive!!! Like you we were brought up to be independent too, just as well as our mum was in hospital for nearly a year when I was 12 and we had a little sister of a year old that we had to look after plus do everything in the house as dad was useless ( mum did everything for him) plus he did work full time. Never did us any harm and mine were brought up to help. That's why I was so proud of Shaun and Hannah ( nephew and niece) for looking after themselves at home while the rest went to Malaysia. They knew a month out if school for them was to much with big exams coming up, now remember lots of hot drinks. Xxx
DeleteCheryl
DeleteYou take care of yourself too my love, I do hope you haven't caught my cold - everywhere I went last week I apologised - I know a couple of ladies I met will not be happy if I've left germs behind! You are so organised with your stamps, that was going to be my job this year - so far I've de handled my Clarity stamps and that's it! Take care xxxx
Keep looking for that tree Cheryl! It sounds lovely . So sorry you are unwell - take care - you have a lovely grandson! He must love his Grandma or he wouldn't come and spend time with you! I guess you are fun to be with too! Xxx
DeleteYes Myra, he tells me that too!, says I don't act my age but one day I'd better remember it. Why? I'm having too much fun making wonderful, funny memories for my grandchildren that they will remember more than the sad times. And anyone who goes on a zip wire to celebrate their 63rd birthday can't be all that bad. xxx
DeleteHi Cheryl So sorry you woke with a bad head ache I hape it's a lot better now, take care lovely lady. Hope you have a lovely day tomorrow. Sorry you didn't get your tree keep trying it sounds beautiful. Love Lynda xx
DeleteCheryl! I just knowed you were fun! Xxxx

ReplyDeleteSheila, meant to say I hope you have a wonderful time with your friends and enjoy your break away, I know exactly what you mean when you said about shopping when you are hungry lol! xo
ReplyDeleteGood morning lovely ladies,
ReplyDeleteAnne your cards are brilliant and so beautifully coloured. I love these images, all the tiny little details, perfect for adding dimension and your matting and layering is so perfect. Thank you for sending them to Sandra.
I had a lovely time yesterday with Peters ex boss and his wife. We had lunch in a brewery and then went into an area of the city which is well known for its artists and craft designers. It was an open door day so you were allowed to go into all the ateliers and see them at work. Mostly paintings but also some sculptors, jewellery designers and one lady who made the most amazing felt handbags - I didn't buy one!. Then we decided to go for coffee and cake and spent another couple of hours just chatting.
Today I am having my hair cut so need to crack on and get that irritating thing called housework out of the way first.
Maureen, glad you are feeling a bit better but stay indoors today and get well, hope your aches and pains are easing. It'll have been George kicking you, he probably thought you wouldn't notice.
See you all later.
love and hugs
Saba xxxx
You were restrained Saba! Sounds like you had a fab day xxxx
DeleteSounds like a lovely day to me! Very interesting and lunch too with good company! Xxx
DeleteSaba are you sure you're OK not buying a handbag!!!! Do I have to worry about you? xxxx
DeleteSABA:- I will have to go have a lie down ... you did NOT buy a beautiful Handmade Handbag!! shock horror!!! Are you feeling OK??? xxx
DeleteShe'll buy something else - trust me!! I'm almost psychic! Xxxx
DeleteHi Sandra and all in the Cafe today. A quick visit as woke up late and have a busy day. Typical isn't it! I will try and get back in later but just wanted to send a hug to Maureen, stay sug and warm and hopefully you will feel better soon
ReplyDeleteSheila, have a lovely time with Margaret and George.
Anne your cards are beautifully made and great fun.
Sandra, make sure you just relax today my lovely after your in laws leave.
Sorry havent got time to catch up on yesterday so will just say have a good day everyone. Take care xx
Good Morning Sandra and everyone,
ReplyDeleteJean your cards are great and so funny, the colouring is brilliant, your shading is just beautiful - I love it all.
Sandra, I forgot when I left my post last night that Paul's parents were not leaving until today, wish them a safe journey. After that you get some rest. xx
Chery, sorry you didn't get your tree. But you did get to spend time with Jamie.
Dashing this morning as I'm going to get my hair cut and coloured.
Will be in later sometime, love Brenda XXX
ANNE I AM SO SORRY - I was in such a rush this morning, I got your name wrong, my brain was doing half a dozen things, OH was saying - right I'll see you in the car, he didn't ask if I was ready to go, MEN !!!!
DeleteAnyway I think your cards are so funny, the colouring is brilliant also the shading. LOVE THEM ALL XXX

ReplyDeleteJust in for a quick cup of tea, thirsty work sorting things out, have to do it quick or I might loose the space in the shed. Glad I have come in as Anne needs to get that phone number removed. Have written it down and will add it to phone and text her later I think she had a heavy night if it last night. Xxx
ReplyDeleteMorning Sandra and ladies,
ReplyDeleteAnne your cards are brilliant, just right for those hard to do men's cards.
Sandra, have a lovely nap after your visitors have gone, it's nice to see people but soooo nice to have your house back to normal.
Hazel enjoy your trip to Birmingham, it's not long till we are all going.
A lot of catching up to do today regarding housework, will try and get back in later.
Coffee finished it was lovely, the toast just hit the spot, all cleared up and put away.
Whatever you are doing enjoy and take care xxx
Ok , number now deleted, so for ladies that didn't read my comment earlier, thank you again for your lovely comments on my cards xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks Patricia xo
ANNE:- thank you for removing your No. I just don't like personal details on an open Blog for all to see and maybe use in a way we might not enjoy. xxx
DeleteHi Sandra and all the lovely ladies
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat this morning, start the day with a giggle, that's what I like. Anne your cards are fabulous, perfect for men and so suitable for many we know. Thank you for sharing. Xxxx
Sandra by now you are probably having a little snooze, just what you need after your busy weekend. I hope everyone enjoyed themselves and there was pleanty of laughter. Xxxx
I've put some pretty boxes of tissues on the cafe tables, they are the ones with balm in to keep noses soft. With lots of us suffering at the moment I thought they would be useful. How long before Patricia turns them into pretty flowers! Looks like everyone is having their hair done ready for the retreat! I must get mine done, it desperately needs doing but I keep forgetting to ring up - why do I always remember on a Monday when they are shut! Right I must get a move on, washing to go out and shopping to be done - see you all later xxxxx
Hello Sandra and all who pop in!
ReplyDeleteI love your cards, Anne! They are lots of fun. I need to make some like that because if I want fun I end up buying one! Tin hat!!! My sons usually get a funny one (bought) and a hand made one! These cards are all super but they are not just funny , they are beautifully made! Thanks Anne!
Well it's after School Club today! I'm going with tin hat at the ready! I've just burned my finger tip with hot glue! Such a dope! I hardly ever use the stuff but I was sticking wooden pegs together at odd angles! They are not even for today!
Be good everyone,
Love Myra xxx
Good afternoon Sandra and all the crafty crew
ReplyDeleteSorry to have been awol for the last two days but my daughter has been quite ill so I have been there getting things sorted and looking after her. Now I need to get things sorted here.
Hazel do take care after such a busy weekend please do try and have some rest.
Patricia so glad you all had a lovely day yesterday with the boys, but please go easy on your John, remember those knees! Bless him going to tip him out of his bed indeed.
Maureen do look after yourself keep taking the medicine and try to be a good girl. Well just this once!
Sheila have a super time with George and Margaret enjoy yourself.
Myra I do hope you have no trouble at the after school class, with miss know it all.
Anne your cards are absolutely fantastic love everything about them, really I do.
Janet so pleased you are getting everything sorted in your corner of French heaven.

Well my brown bread is ready for shaping and putting in the tins to rise again then we will be off to school.
Take care everyone and have a good day, well at least what is left of it.
Margaret xxx
Thank you Margaret - have answered below but I feel an email coming on!! Watch out! Ha ha xxx
DeleteI am in need of a quick cuppa and a slice of Carrot Cake if there is any left.
ReplyDeleteHouse all done, washing dried, ironing done and most of it put away. Tablet made (sweet treat) for the Retreat. Made it then thought where the heck have I got room for this??? John said not to worry he would eat it. I might manage to bring some not a lot, maybe enough for a bit for everyone.....we will see.
Cuppa finished plate & cup washed and put away.
Will not manage in this evening off out with friends. Be good, see you in the morning. xxx
Patricia, I think if you just bring one outfit and different beads for a change of look then you will have enough room for the tablet. And if you wear the said outfit to travel in you'll have even more room. I don't care what you look like but I need some of that tablet!!!
DeleteWe might just have to eat it on the journey down? We are leaving from here at 7.20 and arriving after 4 if trains on time, so if there is no buffet car we will just have to eat what we have with us!!. Xxx
DeletePatricia I'm so looking forward to trying your tablet, it sounds wonderful. I'm sure you will find a tiny space to put it in . I'm really jealous, how did you get your washing dry? Mines been hanging limply on the line all day and is still damp tonight so on the rack finishing off! Xxx
DeleteOh Patricia - they are so mean to you! I just want to meet you and your lovely sister! Crawling - moi! Mais non!! Xxx
DeleteWell I have just arrived home from the city. Don't you just love it when you have your hair cut and styled and come out to pouring rain, especially when you haven't taken a brolly. I look like a drowned rat. Oh well, at least I had two hours of total relaxation. They have these fabulous massage recliners, a coffee machine that makes every kind of coffee you can imagine and I could have stayed there all day.
ReplyDeleteAs to yesterday's handbag, don't forget Peter was with me and if he knew how much I spent on a handbag he would dock my housekeeping money. Not that I get it, we have a joint account but you get my drift. And they were a bit pricey.
Right off to start dinner prep, love and warm hugs to all of you who are under the weather.
Saba xxxx
Hi SABA oooo that massage recliner sounds like heaven I could sit in that now. Sorry your hair got socking after having it done.
DeleteLove Lynda xx
Thank you Lynda
DeleteAt least it made Peter chuckle when he got home. He won't be chuckling when he sees the bank statement though!!!
Xxxx
Saba - it happens to me all the time! I actually warn people I'm going to the hairdresser. Sorry you got wet though - I hate it when it happens to me! See you very very soon! Then you'll be sorry! Ha ha ! Xxxx
DeleteGood afternoon everyone
ReplyDeleteSandra I hope you have had a little nap and feel much revived,
We went to Botany Bay this afternoon, a big mill at Chorley Lancs, we just had a stroll around, and then called into the café (well you have to) not been in long and then it will be time to make tea so Ill wish you all a good evening whatever you are doing
Take care everyone and anyone with colds etc, hope you are much better tomorrow
xxxx
Oh Jean I know it well! Ok I haven't been in a while but my crafting buddy is there a fair bit and has visited the Christmas Dept.!, I'm too busy thinking up Christmas projects for kids and OAP's . Xxx
DeleteIt's very quiet in here tonight. I am off to have a shower and get my pjs on, been a long busy day. I will be the same tomorrow , I am sure the stuff in my spare room has been breeding since I put the boxes back in after Roberta went home. So I will be still sorting out again tomorrow. So that's me for the night. See you in the morning. Xxx
ReplyDeleteWell you all seem to have had very busy days, hope those of you who are unwell will soon be on the mend.
ReplyDeleteSandra hope you managed to get some rest today after your visitors left.
Was hoping to order some of Sheena's inks with my c/c voucher, but hadn't realised it was a one day wonder, so too late now.
Managed to order some hot pressed water colour paper from Amazon, so will be able to some stamping tomorrow hopefully.
Have a good night everyone.
Best Wishes Lilian in Cornwall
It is quiet in here tonight. We've been waiting to face time Emma but think she's probably decided to call us Wednesday instead , either that or she's out on the town again with her friend. I will text her in a moment because I want to know if her present has arrived. Right off to do the washing up and send a text, see you later xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Sandra
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a lovely weekend with Paul's parents. Are they going home today or did they go yesterday?.
Anne I love these cards. I have quite a few of these images. I sent my son the one of the teacher, he did think it was quite funny.
In case anyone is interested - I'd hate to bore you! Ha ha! Today's children's after school club went very well. Lucy rushed up to me and throwing her arms around my waist said she was sorry for her behaviour two weeks ago! I hugged her - I do know we aren't meant to - and told her the slate was clean and we would start afresh. Today's behaviour was so much better. Another Helper told me Lucy was really scared when I didn't turn up last week that I wasn't coming back. Sometimes a little scare is good! It wasn't intended - I'd had a migraine - but she didn't know that. I hate confrontation so hope we have solved a problem.
ReplyDeleteHad a busy day.
Night Night All,
Love Myra xxx
Hi Myra
DeleteI know what you mean regarding hugging children. Just what are you supposed to do when they are so pleased to see you, and rush to hug you. You can't push them away so you just have to hug them all back.
Hello MYRA so pleased Lucy is better behaved now, after scaring her poor love haha. But glad it all sorted.
DeleteGood night Myra God bless.xxxx
Thanks ladies! Night Night! Xxx
DeleteGood evening SANDRA & all you lovely ladies
ReplyDeleteI know late again I have left comments on way down. Back to raining again today with strong winds ( nooo not me ) I had a crafty day round my friends made some nice background papers with the cosmic shimmer paints that John Lockwood uses. I did a couple with rock salt & some cling film they are quite affective. Also did a lot of cutting out. Not long now till NEC two weeks Wednesday. Looking forward to that. Not long now for you all meeting up at the retreat bet your all getting excited now. MARIA hope your ok.xx
Well I'm off to bed now Good night & God bless love Lynda xx
Just dropped in to say good night
ReplyDeleteSweet dreams all
Lilian
Oh dear looks as if I have missed everyone again. Just realised I hadn't said how good Anne's cards are. Haven't hot anyone to send one to but am sure you all have. Don't make many men cards these days. Another busy day. Trying to get done Christmas cards made. Well I will say Good Night Ladies although I suspect you have all gone to bed.
