Champagne Headache....

Are you serious!!! I haven't posted since the 10th.....How slack am I? shh don't answer that. Actually been really busy chasing payments for the retreat and organizing all those bits and pieces.... As well as work work work, Being a Mum and the rest we all have to squeeze in, in our busy lives....
Now let me see if I can remember whats been happening and fill you in. Well nothing really springs to mind. The retreat has been my main focus, with only 54 sleeps to go.
I took Blaine to see Star Wars Clones. We went to the 5pm session and was so glad as we were the only people in the entire cinema. Gave me a chance to catch up on some sleep (oops, really didn't mean it) but what I saw of it, was pretty good. I have been so tired lately, just can't seem to spring into action. As soon as I sit i'm snoozing. Think it's time to recharge the batteries and maybe save for a long relaxing holiday.....
Last Thursday I did something really silly. Saw my friend Danny at the post office, went out to my car to find the little turd had played with my wipers etc.... Had a giggle and thought, bugger him I will return the favour. So off I got and do the same then I skip back to my car, fell of the gutter twisting my ankle and couldn't drive. I honestly thought I had broken something that night because as the day got later the more it hurt. Friday morning I woke up to a better ankle and a thrwn out back!! Im such an idiot. Didn't stop me though going to the IAG gala for work on Saturday night though. I woke up this morning with a champagne headache. The entertainment was Ross Wilson. His 1st set was very average but was great when he started belting out songs like 'cool world', 'eagle rock' and 'Come said the boy' . Even had a dance with the boss. Here are a few pics from the night....Oh and nothing going on with this guy, just the guy i share my office with...

























Not a lot on the scrap fron either. Has been a while since I ave sat down and really got into scrapping. I am halfway through finishing Lali's CJ and starting Sammi's scraplift challenge. Sorry girls im never usually this slack in getting these done. Here is what i have done since last time.
