How has the start of your week been? Mine has been busy more so this week than any other week. DH is away all week and so far I have had to deal with a lizard in the house (not just those little ones a BIG one) and then we have been trying to catch a mouse since Friday night, finally got it last night...so I had to dispose of that only to open my door this morning and find out a dog had been into our wheelie bin over night and I had rubbish all over my front lawn!!!! NOT IMPRESSED!!!!! We have had this happen before and we know where the dog lives but there isn't much you can do unless you catch the dog in the act. So in the mean time we put the wheelie bin behind the front gate and only ever put it out first thing in the morning on the day of collection. Trouble is the rubbish truck comes between 6.30am and 7.00am. Normally DH puts it out on his way to work but with him being away, I thought I would put it out the night before just in case things went pear shaped in the morning or we all had a sleep in!! Well won't be doing that again. So Riley and I went out and picked up all the rubbish, complained to the council about the dog and I got the rubbish truck to come back and collect our rubbish!!!
Why does all this have to happen when hubby is away!?? Sorry just had to vent & record this moment!!! We are going okay now, all has been sorted....phew...
Well I yesterday I had a go at the Colour Combos Galore #180.
I have been having a huge clean out today. My scrap desk is getting a major overhaul. Kindy wants cardboard, scrap paper and stuff for their craft section so I have got piles to give to them! So I best keep going. Riley will soon be ready to pick up from Kindy.
Have a great day and thanks for visiting and any gorgeous comments you may leave :)

WOW Min this is gorgeous.. love the idea with the twine and peg and your paint splatters are fabulous!! Know what you mean about things happening when your hubby is away. My DH is away quite a bit with work and when we have a major drama at home it always seems to be when hubby is away!! :) hugs
ReplyDeleteOh this is gorgeous, Min!!! I love it to bits! You have such a lovely style! Spewing about the bin and we've had some troubles with neighbours' dogs but goodness me, you don't want to say anything even remotely negative about their dog (in our case) otherwise you'll get daggers forever lol. :D

ReplyDeleteI JUST LOVE THIS. The misting around the pic is just gorgeous as is that paper. Love your idea of the twine for a banner and the peg and the doily and the butterfly and everything.
