A little bit on the bright side

for one week now, i have been moving from one soft surface to another trying to recover from getting my nose broken back to normal by a certified "bone breaker and put back together" man. in that time i've been worried about falling behind with my work and every now and then have decided to go into to tafe only to find my mum restraining me and roping me down! well that may be a slight lie but i really want to do some work!!! friday is approaching very slowly (my nose cast comes off on friday) and the only thing i have to look forward to is harry potter on the weekend! i haven't left my home in a week and i'm not even certain there's still a world left out there.

dear shoe maker elves, do you have any contacts in the fashion and sewing industry who could sneak into tafe during the night and sew up my garments? it would be much appreciated and i promise when i am better i will make it up to them!

at least today i have enough energy to sit at my computer and send away my fabric design to be printed. how exciting. my very own fabric. i don't know why i haven't printed fabric sooner. it's so much fun.

hrmm...what picture to post... it's a toss up between a picture of me after the operation or... one of my ancestors riding a pony...

the little girl with a curl

there was a little girl who had a little curl
right in the middle of her forehead;
when she was good, she was very, very good
and when she was bad she was horrid

how observant you are

dear mr postman, i would like to thank you for taking note of the increase in packages i have been receiving in the last couple of weeks. it takes a keen eye and sharp motor cycle skills to be a truly great postman. and i think you take the cake.

  handy hints for foot glittering

 1. always glitter with a friend or spouse.

 2. keep leg elevated at all times to prevent glitter spillage.

 3. glitter in a non carpeted area, preferably in the bathroom. not your bedroom.

 4. use kid friendly glue, incase you kid (or dog) tries to befriend it.

 5. practice hopping before hand.

what's the number for 911?

ok so we may have an emergency on our hands! no one panic just yet as i am still taking my temperature and i have a cupcake band-aid on the ready! However, this is how it all started... monday, i was happy! i was sewing to my hearts content! tuesday, i was proud! i managed to go to lonsdale and buy my fabric all by myself! wednesday i was relieved, i woke up and realised that i still had two days sewing at tafe! thursday, is when it started! i was feeling a mixture of gladness! and sadness! at the SAME TIME!... no way you say? ... WAY! friday, i didn't get to go to tafe. saturday, is the weekend! (BOO!) sunday, is the weekend too!! ( and there is no bones on this sunday night and no zumba!) and i think you all know what monday is!!! A GOD DAMN PUBLIC HOLIDAY!!

i have thus concluded that i have a terrible disease and these long weekend hating ramblings are the first sign of what is to come! or... i like going to... TAFE!! DUN DUN DUUUUUNNNNN!
