This week...

While I can’t say I’ve been overly creative in the scraproom this week, I’ve watched Dad and Lyall be artists in our house. They spent yesterday putting up our new wallpaper. We had a quote of seven hundred to have it hung...seventy dollars later at Mitre ten and we had everything we needed to do the job ourselves. Handy having a Dad who knows what to do! Now, according to Dad I can go and spend the money we saved from having a tradie do it, on my new curtains for our master bedroom. Guess I’ll be shopping for curtains over the next few weeks then :-)

Now the reason I haven’t been overly creative in the scrappy room is that this Tuesday sees me going to have an ultrasound done on my shoulder/arm, which I appear to have injured in some form or another. If it turns out to be torn then it’s into hospital for an operation, if not it’s possibly a cortisone injection into the shoulder. I am hoping it’s the second option – I imagine it’s a bit on the painful side but the recovery has to be much quicker (though they did say I can’t work or do anything for three days after the jab!) However it’s stopped me from feeling creative and I just walk into the room, move a few papers around on my desk and walk back out again ;-(



Today we headed off to small dog Sunday. This always tuckers the mob out, which means we have a quiet day afterwards! It also means I can pop my photos for Project Life into Harvey Norman to get developed, so I have them sitting there ready to go into the album – I think I can probably manage that LOL.

Now back in January I turned another year older and my good friend Michelle Frisby made me this absolutely gorgeous piece of art.  I had to keep it top secret (ya know, or it would have self destructed ;-)  as it was going on the Kaiser blog a couple of months later.  So Mum was the word, but a few weeks ago she gave me the okay to share, and finally I took it down and took some photos of it (which I probably should have done before I hung it up lol).  How lucky am I to be the recipient of such beauty.

Well I guess that's about it in my neck of the woods.  Like everyone else we are  hoping for rain.  Those ugly chicks of mine have never seen rain :-)  Maybe some rain will turn them into beautiful chickens?    Have a great week everyone.

And twinnie, thanks for the dinosaurs.  I had to eat their heads off LOL.  (You know, like the ad for the dinosaur lollies!)
