Today...

I've been busy painting. Door frames. Fun NOT! Still worth it when it's all done.

I had just finished when the phone rung. I'm going insane. Take me out!! It was my friend Nikki, who is the Mum of the girls I had been looking after. She's so sick of steering at the same four walls, poor thing. So we headed off to Whitford for lunch and then into Botany where we borrowed a wheelchair and off we went. Nothing like a bit of retail therapy to brighten up your day (that's her spending money, not me!!). Another friend has offered to have the girls, this afternoon, tonight and tomorrow - and she's back to the specialist tomorrow.

I have to start saving my money...we are off to the South Island for a couple of weeks in April. Have booked and paid for the ferry crossing. And booked our accomodation in Invercargill (we did this a month or two back as we were a bit worried about not getting any if they ended up changing the Oyster festival to Invercargill instead of Bluff.) Other than that we are just winging it. We are staying away from all the main towns - eg we will drive through Oxford and the Gorge etc, rather than into Christchurch. Not that we don't like Christchurch, but rather we like to take a road or two that we haven't travelled if at all possible. While I don't usually wish time away, all I can say is roll on April!

I did look at a layout this morning. But that's all. Thought I'd better get those door frames painted instead! Mind you did get some photos printed so I can do the sketch challenge over at Scrapbook Essentials. At least I managed to get that much done!

Enjoy your Thursday!
