... A few ramblings...
Happy, happy joy, joy - weighed in today and have now lost 10.7 kilos! Yay me!! That 10 kilo mark has seemed so far away and unachievable - but those walks have done it! I am going to try and step (pun intended) it up a notch now! So as I had planned - hitting that 10 kg mark meant I could go and buy myself a new camera..... just kidding - a camera for my bracelet of course! Rang around and found this little beauty at the Junction - it has a cubic zirconium (sp) in the centre of the lens - just love it! And I know that it is going to remind me of my hardwork whenever I put it on!
Today has been a pretty great day all round really - some retail therapy and chat with bud Sasha - picked up the new Love Elsie outdoor range - have the perfect pics waiting to be scrapped, and somehow last night I just couldn't resist the new baby SEI - even though most of what I got was the blue/green range (hey! It's my fav colour scheme) So if you are needing some cool new supplies (shameful plugging here!) head to Shop and Crop! Also taught my favourite layout last night - SEI Dill Blossom layout - we were done in just over an hour! Those girls worked hard last night!
I am also having a great day today, because I took myself off to see "Made of honor" (on my own!!) I was a bit unsure about going alone, but the half the other audience were also alone! Really great movie and I laughed out loud in many scenes. So, when I got home at lunchtime, I discovered Man of the house out the back hanging the clothes out, so we spent the afternoon together and went shopping ( I now have a big clue into what the gang are getting me mother's day - starts with P and rhythms with Adora!) What can I say, after ten years of marriage I finally worked out a way for Hubby to buy gifts I'll like!
and I want to document this little silly thing - during that big rainy school holidays, I complained that the ground between the back door and the studio was too soggy, and began to climb through our garage and go out the side garage door into through the studio door, the other day Lolly (the ever thoughtful thinking miss) came into the studio whilst I was working and told me she had a solution for me - she announced that I now had a "studio train" to get me to my scrapping station!! I laughed and went to see... She had created the "tracks" from the rubber mats we use under some of the play equipment... she then told me that I could also now wear my ugg boots up there at night and they wouldn't get the frost on them and make them wet - what a great kid!
That's it for today, I am off to print some pics and go play with new supplies.
Find your Bliss!
JEN :)




congrats on the 10kg! and Lolly is just too sweet...

Oh Jen...what brand is the camera? Is it Pandora or another one tha fits the pandora. I have been saying for months that someone needs to make a camera bead because I have to have one.
Congrats on the 10.7kg. You are doing so well. Before you know it that 10 will be 20.
