All alone.. for a while!

Travis has some work function on tonight.. well, he had a conference all day at Luna Park, then they had a cocktail party afterwards.. then I get a phone call at 9:15 where Travis actually asked if he could stay out longer and catch the 11:00pm train home (Which would mean I would need to pick him up at midnight!!) Poor thing looks like he belongs in the mafia... this is what his work are making them all wear:
I have been singing Blue's Brothers songs to him all week!!!! LOL Its such a jake and Elwood outfit.. all he needs are the glasses!!!

I am enjoying a nice quiet house, and I dont have to go to work tomorrow (Union picnic day) so I still have just under 2 hours to myself :)
And what have I done??? Well, came home and scrapped!! Then cooked some macaroni and cheese, watched Temptation, then a thing on Foxtel about digital Photography. (On the How to channel, whatever that is..) That took me up till 8:00, I fed the dogs, cleaned the kitchen, made Travs salad for lunch, put some eggs on the stove to boil and put those in the salad, then went back to the computer and started printing out my LO's.

ONE HOUR later I realised the eggs were still boiling!!!! LMAO They are well and truley well done. I printed off ALL the Lo's I have done (only been scrapping since November 05) and I have already filled up my new 40 page album!! LOL Time to buy refills already :)

Well, yesterday I went to the hairdresser :) I was walking by around 11:15am on my way back to the office.. ducked in and made the appt for my lunch break!!! LOL Sorry Peta I didnt have time for the "before" shots!!! I sat there and said I want it shorter and different please, and this is what he came up with:




















I totally LOVE it!!! I didnt tell Travis about it, and the funny thing, HE got a hair cut in HIS lunch break and didnt tell me about it!! So when I picked him up we both burst out laughing :) He got rid of his spikesand got what they called a "trendy crewcut":


Well, as I said I have tomorrow off, AND i was clever and took an RDO on Monday so I have a 4 day weekend!! yippeeeee for me :) Might be going on a boat dive around the harbour this weekend.. undecided as yet though.

Hmm...
Whipped this up in 40 minutes today:

Travis cleaaing up the back yard.. The old owners had like 5 Jasime vines (which I love) growing sooo out of control it wasnt funny.. It took us 2 full days to cut the stupid things down. This was the last of the bushy / unkept / overgrown shrubby things whcih he was cutting. BG paper by me, stripe paper and blue paper by Angie Briggs from her TomBoy kit. I also did this one of Onslow yesterday but have been agonising over the flowers..
Used the Apple Crisp paper pack by Bella Gypsy Designs.. part of their yummy coffee shop collection!!! Available A Cherry on Top at Flowers are my usual primas :) oh and the stitches by Angie Briggs.

Oh well.... I could go on all night.. I think I am going ot have a cuppa tea now and.. i dunno.. think of something to keep me awake for the next hour.. *yawn* Im so tired!!! Wonder what kinda condition Trav will be in when I pick him up!!!

Sorry for the poor formatting.. I oculdnt be bothered arranging the pics nicely around the text, deal with it the same as you need to deal with the red-eye in the photos.. cant be bothered fixing those at this point in time either.

yay start of the NRL season this weekend.. Im so excited!! I love my football :) Entered the tipping comp at work again... I came 3rd last year and won $200 so that was a bit nice!!!

Okey dokey.... catch you later. Goodnight and dont let the bed bugs bite!!!

OOOOH I FORGOT TO FEED THE POOR CAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lisa, your husband does look like he is out of the Blues Brothers. Sounds like you had a nice time to yourself, sometimes it is lovely to be on our own.

Love the hair cut, looks lovely, it turned out really nice. I need to get some layers put in my hair, since I have had the baby it is falling out everywhere and I think I need the layering to make it look like I still have hair.

The layouts are really nice, love the one of the dog, you would never think you have only been scrapping since November, you are doing so well.
