That Sunday Feelin'

Just started raining ......again....do believe we will all be growing webbed feet before long!!
Complete non-productive day.........but the good intentions were there!!

Plan:
Get up
Check the puter
Scrap/create/make a mess
Get dressed
Out for dinner
Home and continue with the above mess making malarchy

Reality:
Get up (later than expected)
Check puter.....find out that I have lost a disk of honeymoon photo's. Do have a back up but that is on a hard drive that is bust and needs a new circuit board. Then put my new h/d in to find that the pc now does not like that it...doesn't like it's 'parameters', what are they? do I need to know? it liked them two weeks ago, whats changed? maybe they have had a row?.......getting annoyed!!!
Try to download some stuff from laptop to clear some space and find that the dvd rw does not work....never really used it in the 6 months we have had it cause have been using the 'my parameters are missing' hard drive. Spent unknown amount of time trying to locate receipt for said laptop so that I can go and wreak havoc on the poor unsuspecting staff at Curry's tomorrow (not that they would care). Do you think I have found it....no....but if I wanted to take back my shopping to ASDA that I bought 12 months ago I have that receipt (imagine a snarly face....thats me).
Time check.......bugger!!!!! Above took best part of 5 hours!!!!!!!!!!! 5!!!!!!!! Ok, bit of surfin' too (not the wavey water kind.....hippos don't surf!!!) but still 5 hours.

Good job I didn't have to cook!!

Nice interlude - Had a lovely meal out with my Grandad at a Gurkha restaurant in town - delish!!! I had Nepalese spinach......mmmmmmm.

Conclusion to this story is that this is all I have created all day..

Beautiful bird in Kenya (from honeymoon). Colours were even more vivid than this shows. Digi bits are c/o designer digitals.
Now to decide what to do with the rest of my evening......more puter or paper....

All by myself.......

.....please now all break out into your best Celine Dion voices and continue at will !!!!!!
Family has gone home.....back to clogville, Kev's been at work all night.....and I am bored-bored-bored!!!!!
Should really have done something exciting like scrapped a wonderful layout full of inspiration or read a good book but couldn't be arsed to be honest. Just me, the apprentice (with constant switching to BB.....yes it has to be done), crisps and ice-cream (Italian diet.........??? bugger that!!), my pc and home budget (how far can you make money stretch? answers on a postcard please) and a numb bum from sitting on the sofa all night. Talking of Italian diet- lost 2 lbs last week......no, not down the back of the sofa!!
Had lots of fun with the teRaa's. Millions of kisses and hugs from Samuel.....always good. Went to the Sealife centre in Birmingham and Samuel was most excited to see all the 'fisses'. Did lots of shopping with my sis. A couple of Starbucks visits - they have just built a new one in our town which thrilled Jo!! And lots of spoiling of Samuel....must be done (even though his dad does not approve).
Will post photo's tomorrow......have not got the energy to walk upstairs to get the cable.

night x
