Thanks Claire, for the little push to get something on here again.
I have been super busy at work this month. We knew that October would be a full on month and it certainly has been. On top of which I have tried to stay up to date with my classes.
And.....I am now up to date. It feels great.
So in the past month these have been the special highlights:
- Monty grandson turned 6
- Sahn grandaughter turned 1
- I myself had a birthday - no, no numbers!!!
- Today is our wedding anniversary - 36yrs. I was a child bride!!! Believe me!
- Dog food was on special at IGA so I bought a whole months worth. Nearly out now, but wait....there's more. Safeway now have it on special this week. Can't believe my luck!
- I bought my own birthday present. I pre-empted a shopping trip to buy clothes with my DH. He has very different taste for me, than me. So on the way home from work I bought a new camera.
- Yep, I finally have an SLR - but it's a small one. It's a fuji and I love it. It's still small enough to carry comfortably and has lots of great features.
So, I think I've had a pretty good month. Not doing too good with the weight loss goal though. Trying to loose 10kgs by Christmas and the weeks are flying by without the Kgs flying off me!
I need something magic that doesn't involve giving up chocolate!
Well, time to get some dinner organised for DH. I don't need any because Jodie (BossMavis) gave me some Thai chicken and rice for lunch. And I am still full.
I'm looking forward to having some time now to evolve my own scrapbooking style. It isn't very often that I can scrapbook my own stuff - ie: not for classes but now I have some time to do that.
But first I have the scary task of sorting and tidying up my scrapbook room because it is a disaster.

Hey Anna, great to see the blog updated. I haven't deserted you!!
Scrapping just for you is really good for developing your own style, but like you said you have to have the time and head space which we often lack in this busy world. One thing I often think is, if noone was going to see or read this except my family, what would I want to say? That gets my journalling happening. Roly's death has certainly made me more conscious of telling people how I feel and scrapbooking is a good way to do that.
Yeah for the camera and LOL re the dog food. You and my hubby would make a good pair!
Keep blogging!
Claire
PS I am aiming to drop off your exchange layout Saturday avo :)
