Just 'cause!

How good does it feel to just dive into your stash, choose whatever you want to use and just play?!?! No criteria, no product restrictions....so good!

I am enjoying using all of my 'old' stuff at the moment. I tend to buy things, then hoard them for forever and a day save them for something special. Six months later, I can't for the life of me think of the 'special' thing I bought them for.

So I am using up my stuff, and its FUN!

I have enjoyed my one day off this week:) I scrapped, and then Sam and I cooked. He wanted to bake a gingerbread 'Kathy' for his daycare mum (Kathy) to give to her tomorrow. I soooo didn't want the hassle of ginger bread people, so we made cupcakes, Kathy's is in the shape of a star :)

The girls enjoyed a little trip to their school's book fair today. Natalie carefully chose a book about cats, Charlotte blew her entire savings on a fancy pen and then lost the rest *sigh* so we are planning on a second assault tomorrow...I loooooove buying books! Kids books, adult books, fiction, non fiction..they're all good;)

So my lovely friends...its off to 'real' work tomorrow...thank GOODNESS! This babysitting lark is EXHAUSTING! Bring on next term I say LOL (I have taken the last term off from babysitting work this year to spend devoted to hanging out with my boy before he goes to prep. I am refusing to feel guilty!)

Happy 'hump day'!
