Ramblings of a future PM....lol

2010-05-16T16:31:00.000-07:00

Hi folks sorry its been a while....quite simply there is not enough hours in the day for me to do ebverything I need to do at the min!! In fact while Im at it why is there only seven days in a week, I dont like it being odd numbers I think it should be a good even number about eight at least...and all you that work dont worry I am not trying to put an extra day onto your working week....I would give you three days off.......mmmmmm....Ann Littler for next PM haha can you imagine it...all craft stuff would have to be made vat free...then of course there would be the other things we woman have to have..shoes...bags...you know the life threatening things that we could not do without, new shoes by prescription sounds good to me, well we have to look after our feet dont we!!! I know Im rambling again, but then if you have been here before you will know my mouth runs away with itself and travels down my arm to my hand, thing is, I am using one of those mobile broadband 'dongle' thingys (who came up with that word, I laugh every time I hear it), the only thing about this 'thingy' is it keeps cutting off, which can be quite painful if your in the middle of something important!!! Well I hear my bed calling......oh the mucky thing you should hear what its saying, I'll give the mattress a good telling off for talking to the frame like that when I get up there, they are on about who is the softest and who is nice and hard...I think they had best sort themselves out, I hope the mattress realises its soft cause if I lay on a hard board something is in trouble.......dream good dreams and wake up smiling....night folks....will be back when broadband is on and this 'thingy' is put away for someone else to use lol xxxxxx

Here is my first snowman card from one of the two that can be bought and downloaded from Jak Heath the money is going to looking for a vaccine for meningitis, anyway just thought you might like to see what I have done with one of mine.

I printed my snowman bigger than it was originally, cut the shape down one side and then decoupaged it with another I had printed and cut out. I painted him with cosmic shimmer paints and used sakura glaze pen for his hat the coal eyes etc and his booots, I finished him off with a bit of polar white flower soft and of course some glitter.

I hope if someone see this and likes it they will go to Jaks blog and get the downloads for themself
the digi downloads are in memory of Layton John Cleaver who passed away recently after getting Meningitis he was only 17 months, bless him, Jak Heath is busy fund raising for them to come up with a vaccine for this horrible disease, If you would like to give a donation then pop across to Jaks Blog also to download and buy the images at £4 for two different images you wont get anywhere else its a good buy:

The following is copied from Jak Heaths Blog, who is trying to raise funds for Meningitis research in memory of her Nieces little boy Layton, please go have a look:

Meningitis Search 4 a Vaccine Campaign.

I have a wonderful friend named Claire Brennan Who designs her own Clear stamps over at Waltzing Mouse Stamps who has given me 4 of her Stamp sets to raise more pennies for Meningitis Search 4 a Vaccine Campaign.

After wondering how best to raise the money both Claire and I decided that doing a draw would be the best way forward. I have 2 EACH OF THE FOLLOWING STAMP SETS which you could win 1 of by adding a £1 donation to the fundraising

For those that are new to my blog and don't know the story of Layton John Cleaver my nieces beautiful baby boy you can read about it here

Well after saying I hadn't worked out how to put some photos of the 'littler' things I make i.e. dolls house food....and one other my little oil heater that I am quite proud of!! Here I am once again at 6am to tell you what you can actually see, I haven't worked out how to label them as well, but maybe when I am more awake I can manage that, though I am sure you can make out what is here, hope you like them.

Maybe the next lot of photos I put on will not be some of my 'Littler' things but some of the cards I have made, that is if I can get my camera to work properly, I think its a case of pointing clicking and hope for the best, so if you want to see more of my creations...watch this space....Huggles to all xxxx

Hi all, well here I am again for a bit of a ramble!!! Its been a wee while since was on, it started off well but like most things something got in the way of the flow, and when something gets in your flow it goes all over the place!

I thought I would start by putting some pictures of my dolls house food that I make and sell on here, but so far all I have worked out how to do is to add two huge pictures of an apple pie and a Batten burg cake, once I actually work out how to put them on properly then I will add more, at the minute they just look a bit daft tagged on at the end. Anyway this is just my way of letting anyone who reads this and perhaps doesn't have a blog of there own but would like to do one is that you should have a go, so ok mine is a bit em...........well you come up with a word for it, answers on a postcard to your own address please! I like to think of my blog as a big experiment, not sure what the experiment will end up with but hey what a surprise it will be to us all when we actually find out.

If there is anyone out there is crying reading and looking at my blog, then wipe your tears and just send me an email as to how to do this thing properly, all help will be more than welcomed.

Eeek!!! I have just looked at the time it is now 4.20 am and I am still here blabbering on about....________ once again you fill in the missing word. So ok folks (or me if no one else comes to read this) I think its time for me to take myself off to bed to lay there for a couple of hours dreaming about what I am doing right and what I am doing wrong on here, this may turn out to be a nightmare of all wrong, but not to worry I am made of strong stuff, I'll just wake myself up, give myself a talking to, think of something wonderful like Mel Gibson when he was in Mad Max and go off to sleep dreaming of me and Mel. If you want to find out what happens in the next few hours it means you will have to come back and put up with my ramblings again, mind you it may be tomorrow, it may be next week, but I will be back sometime!!!!

Ok so here is the question before I go:

Question: Why is it when we desperately want our hair to grow....it takes forever, but if we want to keep it short we end up at the hairdressers every other week, getting it trimmed either that or we have to end up with it long, but then decide ok I'll have it long again...it stops growing.
Also when we are going on a special night out and we want to do our hair straight/curly it always ends up half and half or the opposite of what we want which starts our night off not so good, then the other half says 'your hair looks lovely what are you worrying about' so nice of him as long as people only see me side on, straight one side and curly the other...oh well another new trend.

Weather report for the whole of the UK........Saturday will be ...well Saturday, it will probably be raining if not then you have a real bonus so don't complain it might just be sunny long enough to dry those sexy undies you have been dying to put on the washing line to let next door know you have still got it....and can still get into them (I wont tell them you just keep that tiny set just for those sunny washing days but have never wore them for years). If it is raining in your area then all the better really its the perfect excuse not to hang the washing out, in which case you can hang your BIG knickers inside to dry and no one else gets to see them. So folks what ever your weather have a good one........xxxxx

Today is the day I start to write my own blog instead of reading other peoples, will still be reading them to get tips on what to do on here, because I really don't have a clue, I have started but where that is going to lead no one can tell, especially not me!!
A good thing to start with I guess is what I have been doing today, well that's not hard to answer.........nothing, well when I say nothing I mean nothing of any use to man, woman or child....or beast for that matter, I have been reading...and I got bored with the book, I did a small part of a card.....couldn't get into it......I watched Create & Craft...that lasted half an hour...so its all down to the fact I think that all my get up and go has got up and went, so if anyone finds it, please send it back to me, it is dearly missed!!!!

Weather report for Monday 6th July 2009
This must be the most talked about subject in the British Isles, so here is my version of today's weather in Oxford: From this morning around 5am till now it has been a slightly rainy, windy sunny sort of a day, only thing we missed was snow, but thankfully I am happy to say it has managed to stay away.

Tomorrows forecast.......more of the same as today, well if you say we get it all then its a bonus when its just sunny!!

I have actually wrote something woohoo!!! I think that's about it for today though as my eyes are beginning to close, it may only be 19.07 but as I cant remember if it was since last night or the night before when I was last asleep I think I can be forgiven. Just one question before I go, don't send answers on a postcard though on here will be just lovely thanks.

Q... I like a cup of tea when having a read or watching a bit of TV before laying down to sleep, now comes the big one.....Do I clean my teeth before getting into bed, in which case that tea and probably a biccy or two stays round my teeth all night......or.......do I get back up and clean my teeth after the tea and biccy......but then I may fall asleep before getting back up in which case...no teeth cleaned at all, maybe I should just get some of those disposable tooth cleaners!!!!

All answers to this huge problem gratefully received.

If anyone has been kind enough to read my brain rambling, then thank you and for now a very good night....I hope!
