I am here

Hi everyone, I am here....I just haven't been able to get to my craft desk in the past week.  Well, that is not true I have made two cards but they are for my swap partner over at Craftmad and I know that she visits here from time to time so don't want to share just yet as I may spoil the surprise.

I now have pile of 4 cubic metres of mulch on my front lawn that needs shovelling to some gardens.  I have done one only three to go.

The other thing that has kept me busy was Relay for Life which was held last weekend.  I managed to stay up all night which was helped by the fact that it was our coldest day/night in June for four years 9-10C.  I only sat for a little bit then had to walk because the cold was creeping in.  So one lap, then we were doing a toilet stop because it was so warm in there. lol and for once we were not complaining about the queue.  Then back out for another few laps.  In the end Cairns had 200 teams the a record for Australia.  As of the weekend we had raised $501783.93.....how terrific is that.  The team with the most was Mareeba Roar with $27000. Our team has raised close to $3200.  So in all it was a great time.   Mind you I was a zombie on Sunday.  Managed a 11/2hours sleep as soon as we got home at 10am and then back to bed at 8.30pm.  Our daughter held out until 2pm and then we didn't see her until Monday morning.  Monday I had to have a nanny nap, so glad I didn't have to go to work.  :-)

So that is what I am up to at the moment.   I will return soon with some cards.

Don't forget the new Unstampabelles Challenge Blog and the Blog Candy on offer.  You can find that all here.
