some stuff we've been up to...

like most people this time of year we've been pretty busy. lots of chrissy parties, secret santas and over indulging. in the middle of all this, jamie and i are still trying to sell our apartment, but have just worked out that we dont have to move into our other place this coming week, as we've put it off till the end of january. yay, i was really stressed just by the thought.

1 of my parties was at the bowling alley. i am completely terrible at bowling but had huge fun...

with my friends who all used to work with me at video ezy many many years ago now. luv catching up with them all still.


another party was ally's housewarming (in the middle). she moved into our building and works with us at WIN. also huge fun...

the next day however, not so fun. yes hungover, but also thought i had LOST my engagement ring for about 12 hours. no sleep, just looking through rubbish and down drains etc. i feel physically sick just thinking about it. jamie picked my ring all by himself and i just love love love it, so yes insurance would cov er the cost but it would never be the same. anyway, i found it in the pocket of some pants and i was getting dressed to walk down the street looking for it on the side of the road. it has been a bit too big since i got it, so this has been a wake up call to go get it re-sized, yes
bought my xmas dress this week. pretty pretty pretty. funny story though. kath, kirst and i, all bought the same dress. kath is cutting off the bottom frill, kirsty is cutting it off short and sewing the straps over instead of leaving the halter top and i am cutting the top off entirely to make a strapless maxi. so 3 same but different dresses for christmas.

last night kirsty and jason came over for dinner. they bought over butter chicken and naan. i made a thai beef salad entree and choc caramel ravioli for dessert. yum yum. the boys played guitar hero and us girls made these little pretties

i havent done any scrappin in ages and ages. my room is like a bomb hit it. i am still suffering from the "my house is way too small for all my supplies and clothes" thing. so i have come up with a solution. i am going to play with this for a while.

this book has the craziest stuff in it and i'm gonna play and post as much as i can until i move into my new home (aka new scrap room)

talk to ya all again soon.

luv dee n kirsty xoxox

The dress is great! You'll have to try & get a pic of all three of you in the altered versions :)

Good on you for putting off the move until end of Jan. Gives you lots of time to go through your stuff before you move & get it all sorted.

I must have a dirty mind, the girl sculpy reminds me of a blow up doll :D

I added Wreck this Journal to my cart at Amazon earlier this week... it looks like heaps of fun!
