Oops, I really overslept!

Goodmorning everybody!

This morning I overslept really, just woke up at 10.15 o'clock, which is rather late for me. When this happens, I am a bit lost, because it seems to me if I have only short time left for the whole day. A bit nuts, but it feels like it.!So I'll make this really short, to "grab back"a bit of time, LOL.

Yesterday was the shopping day, did all quit quickly, I must say. Then I did a bit in the house, good girl, and also had some time left to finish another kit. In the evening we watched tv, as usual, we enjoyed ourselves and later in the evening we had some little toasts with some French cheese, yummie! Oh,dinner was an "easy" one, just made some macaroni, with minced meat, of course seasoned with pepper salt, dille and garlic, and a tomatoe sauce and to it just some green and cucumber salad. But I usually make this stuff in larger portion, so today it;s real easy for me, we just eat what is left from it. Whooopeeee!
I have the feeling I am forgetting something to write down, well, if so, it will come back and there's always tomorrow again, hahahaha.

Now here is your second part of Retour à Paris and I hope you have a great day.

Running around time again!

Goodmorning everybody!

Today is the shopping time again. Not very interesting, but these things have to be done. So less time for me playing around on the computer. Oh well, that might be a good thing too! I definately should get out more, now that the weather is getting a bit better, but then go out just with the camera and try to get some nice spring pictures and just pictures. Hmmm, they said Friday the temperature should be around 19 degress C (!!!), with perhaps some rain, but may be I can catch a dry moment to walk around a bit.

The garden is "unlocking"itself step by step, I am now waiting for some little tulips to bloom. And I think soon there will be the itching again in my blood to buy some new plants for the pots and here and there I must remove some plants and oh what a blessing! New room for new plants too! LOL.

And what about the new kit for today? It will be in a two days download, I will show you the previews of both parts. There was so much stuff in it, that I decided to make two previews, otherwise it would be too cluttered. It's a kit for Paris lovers, called it "Retour à Paris"
Now I just have a bit time left to work on a new kit and then it's off to the shops.

Have a nice day !

Doctors by telephone

Goodmorning everybody!
It was a doctor day yesterday, well, a bit. Jan and I both would have a phonecall from our doctors. Jan was first, she phoned already at 09.00 o'clock. He has really a great doctor, I am almost jealous of it! The tests were rather well, only she discovered a little kind of infection in his gurge, nothing too serious(he has no problems of it) but she sends him some medicin for it. She still didn;t find out why he has the anaemia. Perhaps she will take some other tests on him, but not for the moment. All in all, it wasn;t such a bad news, not something to sit upright with hairs up from fright, LOL.
Then my doctor still had to call. Hmmm, different piece of cake. She only called late in the afternoon, it;s a bit of funny person, it;s night and day with Jan's doctor! You know I had the bloodtest, well, all was looking fine, only have a slight sufering of some enzyme from the liver , but that's to do with the medicine I take. She asked if I had trouble in my belly, suffered some pains there or anything. Answer was a firm: NO. So nothing wrong. And you know what was funny? She discovered a slight shortage of...................... SALT! I explained that it may come cause Jan had to be a bit careful with the salt, so I followed the same regime. Hahaha! So from time to time I can put some extra salt on my plate to keep it in balance. Yohooooo!
Okay, if all stays as it is, my nect appointment will be for next year.

That was about all the bg news from yesterday. During daytime I did a few challenges again, I will probably show them later, and am gathering stuff now for a new kit.

And what's there today? Again a happy one I think. It prepairs us a bit for the summertime, it's named "Breeze at the Seaside"So have fun with it, or keep it a bit in store for your "sunny"pictures still to come.
Enjoy yourselves and stay healthy!

Been busy this weekend with challenges

Goodmorning everybody!

Another weekend passed and I was quit happy with it! I have been busy with some challenges at the same time, which is sometimes great to do. Why?Well, at a point you can get out of inspiration for one thing and when you take up another project that suddenly flows out of the fingers. You can laugh but it's true! We have a great Botanical challenge at the moment, kind of making a whole alphabet with planst, or trees, or flowers anything that grows in nature, just my kind of thing! Then the colour challenge for April, all in warm kind of mediterranian colours, I almost finished that one!! I already did the quote challenge,book of shadowns challenge which was all about a spell to scrap. I will show you that one, it's kind of funny.

I did the Letter challenge, for the M and L just have to show you them, I think they came out well. The letter M was made with parts of a kit from Snowy, called Renaissance! You can get that great kit at the shop http://magickalscraps.com/Shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=219&zenid=ba27e2d89a1a3cdcc62e2f539de67324. This is the link to it, that's an add-on given as freebie!!!

Isn't she looking beautiful mu mother? And it's such a vintage picture of her! I love it.

Enough of showing off, LOL, I still have a lot to work on, busy with the template challenge , still some tricky ones are waiting for me! In between I also could make a new kit, which will be on somewhere this week. Even did some time in the garden, although, saturday suddenly the weather wasn't nice at all, but yesterday I could sit a bit in the sun. In between all that not much done, but that's understandable, with sooooo much time at the computer. So today I cannot spent all day here, must really do some things in the house and then a day passes quick!
After all this rambling and showing off it is time for you freebie. It's a nice kit, I believe in mostly two colours called it "Sentimental". Hope you can do some nice scrapping with it!
Have a nice day and see you!

I am going to enjoy the sun!

Goodmorning everybody!

Did you see the new slideshow for this month at the top?? That's the new daily download at Magickal Scraps! All about TURTLES!!!!
How about that? I think it's a great DD and real funny too. But only available if you subscribe for free to the forum.
Great day yesterday. Did some things I wanted to, program stuff still not solved. I think I have to call in kind of wizzkid, which could be my brother in law. Hmmm, I'll just wait a bit with that, not too long, but just a bit.
Had some time in the garden, sitting in the sun and shortening a pair of trousers from Jan(finally!!!). Today the weather should be even better, they expect something around 18-20 degrees C here at the coast!!!! So I'll take a bit of time to have some sun warming me up and giving some vitamines, LOL.
Then I had a loooong msn talk with Snowy, boy, if we REALLY start, an hour is gone like 5 minutes!! Terrible. I had to break it off after a long while, cause I had to do some things around here. had I stayed on talking I am sure we would have spent at least two hours on msn chat. Hmmm, when girls start talking.........................!!!

So it's almost weekend again! Yoho, extra playing time for me LOL!! But first the last freebie this week for you. I could(lucky me) choose between several I have "on the shelf"but decided I can give out now the kit I made for the December colour challenge from Magickal scraps. It's not all the time perhaps for it, even a bit dark of colour, but bear in mind the season I made it in!! Still I think it's not a bad kit at all so I can put it on my blog now for everybody. It's named "Decorated for Winter" and perhaps you have some pictures as left over from December, and then you will have some nice possibilities for scrapping them.
Monday I will be back, with a much lighter kit, promise, but that's a looong way ahead, first I wil enjoy the weekend and I hope you will do so too! Great time to all of you!

A challenging day? Or nerves?

Goodmorning everybody!
What a beautiful day it was yesterday! I did do shopping, what was ever so nice cause it was really Spring weather. Then I know, I planned some more housework, but that was left for today a bit. And that because it was such nice weather, we could open the doors to the garden and leave them open for a while. And it was so nice in our garden that for the first time this year I actually could install myself in a chair, sitting in the sun, with just a sweater on. And I took time to read a gardening magazin. So I spent more than half an hour sitting there, all satisfied! Then I had to go in again, it was time to check for freebies for the list and I did a good job there, didn;t I???

But.... perhaps today it will be a bit different. Of course I can stay in, that saves time, it should be even better weather today, so it should be good to sit a bit in the sun and also some work to do in the house. And perhaps..... this evening I will go on with the project of the program installment. BRRRRRR. That is, if my great help is available. I would be ever so happy if it should work, I probably will dance around then as a little child. LOL But let's not think to far ahead!

I hope to install the new slideshow on top today, for the new Daily Download series on Magickal Scraps. Oh boy, when you will see that great kit, you'll just subscribe, because you want to have it! It's such a funny one, believe me!!!
And ONLY avaible there, I will not post it on my blog as freebie!!

Now I will prepare myself mentally to the task waiting probably this even(program issue) and first post the freebie for today. I think it suits the weather around here just fine and makes you all feeling "sprinly"" LOL. I named it "Strawberries and Cream". Hope you can use it well.
Have a great day all, hope mine will be also in that category, hihihi, grin, grin etc. Pffff.

Wow, I did work yesterday!

Goodmorning everybody!

Still no program installed, today I think no luck for me either, first have to do some other things. But I made a good start yesterday! As you know, I was rather late yesterday so decided I could wait another day with the shopping. So I woke up alowly and then I got the swing! I took some plastic sacs you use for the garbage container and went into the store room where I keep all things for cooking etc. I cleaned it all out, threw away a lot of things as opened packages with rice or flower or old tins way over the consumption time old stuff that was standing there useless, like old pots and pans. Gave a good sweet through it, cleaned the shelves with the sponge and so, re-organized the shelves, (this storage is almost like a little room, so a lot of stuff ends up there!!!) . It looks ever so nice again! But it took me about 3 hours to do it all, also washed a lot of storage cans, standing there empty, but you always need some, so that's all shining again.!!
After that I was a bit pooped off, so I prepared dinner already a bit and took a little time at the computer before making dinner actually! After dinner I could make a cotribution to a new challenge we have at Magickal Scraps and then I hsut it down and installed myself on the couch to watch some tv. But it felt good that I achieved something, that had really to be done!

And I even forgot your freebielist!!!! How a bad girl I am, I will make that up to you today promised!

As you see I had time to change the look of my blog again as a new month arrived today. Gosh April already, it's going fast. You should go over to the blog of my friend Snowy http://silversnowyraven.blogspot.com/ to see the new kit she has in store now with reduction! It's a HUGE kit, but ever so beautiful, she is a really talented lady. And she also gives out beautiful and useful freebies very often. So just take a look.

Today will still be a busy day, I MUST do the shopping today or the cats won;t have anything for dinner and we need some things too! And if I do that quickly enough may be I can do some more tidying up, especially some closets that have to be done. Last week I did already the big one with clothes and bed linen and that stuff, but there's always another one, LOL. But I get these things always better done, when the weather looks nice and the sun is shining friendly, it seems to give me more energy!
Okay, to the freebie now. I think Snowy will make a funny face, because I know it;s NOT in one of her favourite colours, hahaha! It;s all PINK, yeah!! And the name is "Fluffy, Naughty Pink". I hope you can have some fun with it.
Have a nice day, I have plans enough, now I will have to carry them out too!!! Phooh!
