Sex and picnics

Last weekend started and ended with me in the exact same seats of the exact same session of the exact same movie. A movie about friends. 

Today was Scrap Tuesday, now the name may be slightly misleading. Some times we do and sometimes we don't, but its really about friends, and today was no different. Today our friend Cindy joined us. The first time back since the sudden death of her mother. So we did what every good friend does, drank hot chocolate, ate Tim Tams, laughed and talked about scrapping cozies for the special battery operated friends in your life. As you do. 

We had missed Cindy.

Today was also Day 2 of boot camp, and let me tell you it was no bloomin picnic ( the prompt) !!!!! My photographic time was short and well I just had a stinker of a day ( photog wise). I don't know if I like at all what we got but it really goes with the journaling we had for that day

"Journal Prompt:

Do you shy away from calling yourself an artist? If so, what do you think makes someone else an artist and not you? What are some ways that you can start today to outwardly reflect your inner artist? Name three people who you would be comfortable sharing your creative work and projects with. "

 Today I was not an artist. Today I tried and learnt though.  And that's a darn tooting start. 

Ps, Daph we also missed you. Come back soon.

PPs very surprisingly Sex and the city 2 was better the second time around ( well couldn't get much worse!!) I guess cause I had no expectations of it being good, so I could enjoy it for what it was.  

PPPs I have no idea why Im darn tooting. Its my inner yokel. My you might be a redneck if.....

And Ivory was her name.

Boot camp : Day One 

The journaling - a letter to ourselves, the prompt - Ivory.  The Brain - stretched. The fingers —trigger happy!

Ok so these are my 2 fav ivory photos. Far from my original idea, I wanted the smooth creaminess of the Kooks cheek with a hint of eyelashes. So I patiently waited till he was napping, had purposefully let him fall near the lounge window and quietly yelled Yippee and got my camera.

Dudes - issue, red, angry, bumpy, teething cheek rash.

 Far from his beautiful creamy ivory skin, but it's ok I had a back up ( The beauty of being in Australia doing a US based class, we live in the future over here. I read and journaled last night, and got to ponder into the weeeeeeeee hours of the night, and it still was Sunday over there when I woke up this morning!)

Think Ivory, think wedding. So I got out my dress and wedding pic, hmmm needed a lil somethin' somethin'. So I got out my pearls, and then I got some of my crystal and went from there.

PS these are almost just Sooc - I transfered the jpegs to see which raws I wanted to upload, but then my battery died and well you know I have NO patience, so just the basics jack. 

PPS Im off to do my day 2 journaling, you are all boot camping as well right?????

PPPS - ill leave the teeny giveaway open till next week, dont forget to enter - no requirements except a comment needed!

PPPPS Does it mean I am old if I have pearls and crystal????????????????????????????

Ps - I soooooo told you they were talking to me! 

PPS ill leave this open till the 16th of june.

ok, sigh, much better

Im happy now, I think I wanted to be that other template/ background sort of person, but it was an uncomfortable fit. Im just not that background. I think Im more this type. 

I guess thats what this time of life is about. learning who I am, thats not defined under mother, daughter or sister. So please if you know let me know!

Ps the only slight quirk I have found is that it shows the post twice on the single entry - but Im a bit quirky so it fits. 

pps though Im really liking this one as well.

Au Revoir and hello.
