new things

Picked up our new car yesterday whoo hoo it's going to take me a bit of getting used to having a column shift ...I keep going for the floor..lol...and all the binging... it bings if your door is open ...and it bings if you don't have your seat belt on....going out for a bit of a drive soon... to finish Fathers day shopping.

The goats are at my nieces place...they aren't her goats...they belong to the landlord...the two little ones by themselves were 24 hours old when I took this pic...and the one with the mother was 20 minutes old... I didn't get the back end of the goat ...for a reason..lol..... these are good things which make us all smile :)

feelin' blah

I've got a sore throat, runny nose and a head full of cotton wool (well it feels like it)....going out for tea tonight to the sporting club with some friends.... then on Saturday we have Marks Dads 70th birthday in Melbourne.....should be ok... Mark had a look at the music list today can you believe they had not ticked Robbie Williams !!!! how rude ... so it's ticked now... along with Hunters and Collectors... :)

I hope I'm feeling a bit better by then..I might nick into the chemist huh..

Finally got a shot of a doll that I want to use for my ATC's... just have to get them printed...and my pics of Mark Seymour ..that Len sent me... :)

Ooooh I bought myself some RED DOOR the other day... 100ml for $30 yay... I love this perfume and haven't any of this for sooo long.

Going back to get Marks Dad some aftershave for Fathers Day depending on the scent.... they have some frome $55 down to $20 not bad huh.

Mums ash sprinkling day went well yesterday... the weather was nice...even if it got a little icy in the afternoon... we ate and ate and ate...this started at brunch time and we didn't get home till 4 ish...lol..

confused ?

sorry... seems as though I may have confused some of you... with the page I did below...

Libby is me...

I have been called Libby all my life..but use/d Liz as my online name as it went with my email addy and when I first found scrapping sites/groups there was a libby already so I went as Liz.. ...so you can call me want you want.. just don't call me late for dinner.. ...ok that was old..

ooh i scrapped

finally.... I haven't scrapped in ages.. and after being prompted by the 52 challanges on KSK ..this is it.. ..I just wish my hand writing was better...

Finished my ATC sbut forgot to get a pic... I'm such a dumb ass.. I'll have to get a pic when they come back....

This months theme is 'dolls' I have a few ides running through my head.. just have to make them work..

Going to a crop in Melb with Sam, Ange and Melissa (maybe) on Friday night... should be good...I'm looking forward to it actually.
Must go and get some photos printed so I can do this cj that is sitting here... if I could get it done before or on Friday night then I can hand it to Sam then.

I've placed my first SU order with Melissa...yay...these will help with some cards I have to make..

Tomorrow morining we have an appointment regarding Davids subject choices and which direction he wants to take ....bit scary..thinking that next year he'll be in year 10 !!
