Poor boys



This is what I cam home to on Sunday, it was a lovely treat right before all the vomiting started. Yep spewing and the other end Each of them are taking it in turns, Kook, Then the sweet middle. The Hubby at 2 am and The big who is has been back from school holidays for exactly three days is languishing on my couch. 
I dont have the energy or time to get sick, so I have forbidden it to hit me. Im a maid of honor on Saturday and my sister in law was going to do my hair cause Im sick of feeling frumpy. So its just not happening. 

And frankly as I was reminded this week over and over - I just dont like cleaning up vomit.

A lil something I have been working on ( before the vomit that is!)

Ps Go back to Daphs for the rest of the story of our trip away!

2 - my spur of the moment circles I decided to paint a while ago, on top are branche swe got from freedom a million years ago. Sits above my desk. ( hoping to get a full photo soon, but the lighting stinks except for early in the morning and my boys and I are lay abouts!)

3 - close up of the mini bunting

4 - mini bunting on shelves ( note handmade glimmer mists, and empty containers from the worlds best hot chocolate mix - Lindt. )

Just a few lil things Ive been working on. lay out and sewing to come. Mini bunting came about because - I forgot to take photos to last weeks scrap day with the girls. Photos people!!!!
 These are taken in my craft space - a corner of my bedroom which does not get nearly as much natural light as I wish. Hanging out to afford a daylight lamp!
Ps I hate slow power - we actually ran out of broad band on the 3rd this month. 
Pps do NOT see ghosts of girlfriends past - Matthew Mcconaughey, How you have broken my heart!

Today i lost something


My virginity, my petrol pumping virginity. 

Maybe I should explain, yes I am thirty but I have never pumped petrol before in my life. I have my learners for the third time ( each time I got them before I got pregnant and was to afraid to learn to drive!). 

So I pumped petrol and Rod laughed all the way home. I made the mistake, you see, of telling him I was disapointed. MY hand hurt and it wasnt any fun. It always looked fun to me. So I wanted to try it and it got in my head that even though I didnt drive, Im still old enough to pump petrol. 
But it wasnt any fun at all. 

And now Rod will make me do it again. 

Photo has nothing to do with the post but they look at you wierdly if you try to take a photo at a petrol station!
