Having A Play

Wow, only 3 more sleeps! I love Christmas.

So I spent some time in my craft room just playing today and this is the result. Used lots of distress ink on this card - not what I had envisioned but that's what makes it fun. Sometimes things work out and other times... not so much.

On a different note, Lynn and Brandi tagged me for a fun List of Fours... so here goes.

1. Four shows that you watch:

  • Glee
  • White Collar
  • The Closer
  • Law & Order

2. Four things you are passionate about:

  • My family
  • Card making
  • Food
  • Mail – I just love getting packages in the mail. Even when I buy for the shop and the goods are NOT for me, I feel like someone is sending me presents!

3. Four words/phrases you say a lot:

  • I Love You
  • James !!!
  • I don't think so
  • Sit down (often say this to students at school)

4. Four things you've learned from the past:

  • When you teach High School you have to have a sense of humor.
  • Have no regrets.
  • Never leave without saying, “I Love You”
  • When dealing with teenagers you have to have a thick skin.

5. Four places you would like to go:

  • Egypt
  • Greek Islands
  • CHA craft show
  • Skiing

6. Four things you did yesterday:

  • Made a card
  • Went to the Post Office
  • Did some Christmas shopping
  • Played ‘Taxi’ for my son (meaning I drive him around to work, movies etc)

7. Four things you are looking forward to:

  • The rest of my Christmas holidays
  • Christmas morning
  • My son getting his drivers licence
  • Being able to give up work (an impossible dream)

8. Four things you love about winter: (Living in Townsville, Australia I am going to change this and say ‘Summer’)

  • Christmas
  • 5 weeks holiday – schools out!
  • Shorts and t-shirts
  • Rain (it's our rainy season - humidity here is REALLY high so the rain helps to cool things down)

9. Four people I tag to play along (no worries if you pass :)!!
