Flying By...


Apologies that card postings, for a while, may be a bit thin on the ground and even BIGGER apologies for my lack of commenting too on all your lovely blogs.
My gardening work is picking back up again so I'm quite busy.
Here's a couple of quick cards that I made for Easter (an alternative to Eggs n' Bunnies). They're beautiful butterfly & dragonfly peel-offs with shiny card-candy highlights...simples!
Off to dodge the showers & plant some lavenders.....

Easterly Greetings


This is me looking all sweet, girly & innocent in a frock in the garden with my basket of Easter eggs & my rabbit-eared dog. 
I shall be donning the above attire on Sunday and skipping gaily round the street delivering festive chocolates and fluffy, yellow chicks to small children and the elderly.
This is of course all part of my community service punishment having been arrested earlier in the week for running naked down the road during a rare moment of rain...Spoilsports!
Have a groovy weekend everybody and beware police with nakedness-dectector-devices hidden in bushes...xxx

The Not-So Beautiful Game...

There are some things in life you shouldn't do.
Wear dungerees if you have a weak bladder, eat bugs, enter the Big Brother House or confess to watching High School Musical.
As a woman of a certain age (ahem...) one should know what is right and what is CLEARLY wrong!
On Tuesday night, I lost focus...I blame the blood-loss from my Rambling Rose fight (here) for my addled brain & the subsequent lapse that occurred. I should have been at home eating sweet digestive biscuits, sipping a hot cuppa with my legs up after my involuntary blood donation.
My sons football training was cancelled but one 'muppet' parent suggested that the team could still meet up just for a 'kick-about'.
ALARM BELLS SOUND!!!!!!
'Kick-about' should have read Kids V Adults football match.
Inappropriately dressed in my non-support-bra & hot (heat NOT sexy) hoodie it wasn't pretty trust me. I held my own though against the boys who showed no mercy, my not-so-beloved son took me out & I ended up flat on my back in the mud. Despite only using half the pitch I was suitably knackered when F/T was finally called (when it was too dark to see the ball).
I should have stayed at home buffing my nails being a girlie-girl, but on reflection I can take glory in my momentary lapse. I was able to embarrass my son by playing football alongside the dads...so I guess my work here is done!
