Fairies & lovely links



This is what the madam came out of the bedroom wearing the other morning........apparently she had some sort of transformation into a fairy........as you do........

Now........ I have spent a small (mmmm.....kinda) amount of time wandering around the blogosphere trying to kick the creative brain cells into gear......I thought I would share the little gems of happiness and inspiration I came across......

Not only is this lady a phenomenol artist and has a brilliant blog but she must be a great big sister - she suprised her little brother and this is his reaction.....

I am trying to talk the Mr into doing something like this beautiful, exciting family - I don't think I have much chance but a girl can dream can't she?

Get yourself a cuppa (if you get a chance) and spend five minutes with this family........they are lovely, creative, and check out their film and vote if you love it.....

Brain Blah & the wierd & wonderful

I am having a brain freeze.........a mush moment.........it is like there are a million things happening that I want to tell you all about but I can't.......I either deem them to boring, a bit blah or can't quite put them into anything that remotely resembles functioning sentences.

I am time poor and idea rich......I am also freaking out because now it is only 3 weeks until the Mr and I go to Thailand.....we are going for seven nights for his younger brothers wedding. All of his immediate family will be on this trip which of course.......will drive me to wine.......(don't panic none of his family even know I have a blog!)and this is the first time I have left the Madam for longer than two nights in a row. She will be fine.......I mean this is the girl that literally picks out a person at the market that looks cool to her and tries to stalk them until I have to tear her away......as she keeps telling me ' I'm three......I know what I'm doing Mama'...........I on the other hand are/will be a dribbling, over protective, insane parenting mess....... someone else made the executive decision of no children........but you know apart from that Thailand will rock!

In all seriousness.....we went there a few years ago.....the Thursday before we left a blood test told us we would be expecting the Madam in about 9.5 months. So my last holiday in Thailand was filled with ginger ale and finding creative ways to hide the fact that I had to throw up all day. This time I plan on making the most of the cocktails and massages that I was effectively banned from ........

So now that you know that my brain has turned to mush and I am a parenting nightmare I thought I'd let you in on a few other weird facts about me......

1. I compulsively read the back of the toothpaste tube when I brush my teeth.....even when I know what it says.

2. I love Oprah....I don't get to watch her much anymore but I love her......I think she is just a great ball of positive !

3. I want to do something different with my life every day...yes trust me EVERYDAY...to the point where I annoy myself! I thought I would have focused on one idea now but nooooo..........I am like a kid.......I want to be something new all the time.

4. I always forget to buy lightglobes.......I am terribly disorganised.....but I am even worse with lightglobes....we have 3 that have been gone for about six months now.


So what are the wierd & wonderful things I don't know about you? Don't be shy.....
