<div style="text-align: center;">
Have created a bit of a dilemma for myself</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
do I???? don't I?????</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
will have plenty of time to think about which way I will go as the weather is not suitable for painting it's either </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
toooo cold </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
toooo wet </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
More time to get organised (what ever that is) for the coming week and that is always a good thing</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Talking of good things have you checked out Scraphappy Kats FNC</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You still have time to get an entry in</div>

What a Roller Coaster ride it's been lots of ups and downs</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is nobody else on this earth that I would have wanted to take the ride with</div>

May we continue to ride on that Roller Coaster for many more years to come</div>

I hope this post finds you high and dry</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know in some parts of Queensland New South Wales and Victoria you are battling flood waters</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had my own little problem with water on Monday we had so much rain on Sunday night and early Monday that our drainage couldn't cope with all the water and some got into the garage (creating space) so I spent Monday sorting out that little drama. It wasn't too bad this time, has been much worse in the past.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Consequently what I had planned for the week went pear shaped before I had even started!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I did get the Friday Night Challenge done for Scraphappy Kats</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a word challenge and the word is </div>

I had loads of fun playing with my foam stamps and paint</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had forgotten all about them until I started cleaning out my scrap stash</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was thinking about selling them as I hadn't used them for a couple of years but I love how this turned out so I will be keeping them for a while longer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just have to remember to use them more often</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the Sketch and it had to be done in the colours of Pink and Green</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is what I created</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I rotated the sketch 90 degrees and simplified it<br />
(I loved the bones of the sketch but it was a bit to busy for my taste) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a photo of our son Jesse when he was 3 maybe 4 years old<br />
Yes Pink does work for boys I have chosen a reddy pink to complement the green check </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
How are we all???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've had my coffee, and am now ready to get my day under way</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a couple of jobs from yesterday's list to finish off then I can get stuck into today's list </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If all goes to plan I will have the housework finished by mid morning and then I can start gnawing away at the Elephant</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had intended to take a couple of nibbles out of it yesterday but it didn't happen??</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had promised to take Miss Anna op shopping in the morning and then Miss Bella had her interview and photos at Senior Secondary in the afternoon, when that was done she wanted to go op shopping </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think she was just a wee bit impressed with the bargains that Miss Anna had got and wanted to grab a bargain or 2 herself</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After 2 trips to the op shop I ended up spending a grand total of $14.50 for 10 items </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's my kind of shopping!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also had to get the example done for the FNC and get it up on Scraphappy Kat's blog</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Emergency here</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Things are worse than I thought</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My life is a huge MESS!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
according to my handbag</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
?????</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let me explain</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The eating of the Elephant has come to a stand still</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm at that stage where you just want to shut the door and forget about it</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I went looking for tips and inspiration to get back on task</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On one of the sites I visited it was suggested that your handbag is a reflection of your life???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh boy my handbag is so messy!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So according to that theory my life is in a bigger mess than I thought </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First task for the day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Clean out and organise the handbag</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
after coffee</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(nothing happens here until I have my coffee) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now according to this theory once I get the handbag sorted my life should be sorted</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Neat, tidy and organised just like I wish it was<br />
<br />
If I had a handbag like this<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

my life would be perfect</div>

for the 1st of the month!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
February already???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have planned to get so much done Jan/Feb, the biggest job being the eating of the Elephant (declutterig and reorganising the craft space) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
January's now a distant memory and I'm probably a quarter through</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have a big day planned for work so it is very likely that I may not even take a look at the Elephant today, depends on how I feel when I get home</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I can multi task but not while I'm watching TV through closed eye lids!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So that is why I'm doing yesterdays update on the eating of the Elephant today</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Progress is slow but it is getting there </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After spending an hour or so sorting and chucking out this morning </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(I was up way before the birds so I put the time to good use)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I estimate I have eaten half way up one of the Elephants back legs</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have found lots of stuff that makes me wonder </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What frame of mind were you in when you purchased that??!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think a Kinda will be getting a box of craft goodies</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have also found lots of good stuff that I know I will never use, so that's going up to the market to be sold real cheap</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you live in the Bendigo area and are interested in real cheap Scrapping/Cardmaking stuff I will have some for sale at the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
SundayBendigo Show Grounds Market </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have Patterned Papers, Cardstock, Embellishments and Off the Page stuff</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While I was tidying up this morning I found my January list of jobs I wanted to get done</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was a long list and to my surprise when I crossed off the jobs I had completed, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was surprised and amazed that there were only 2 jobs that were left on the list</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Feeling a bit pleased with myself for being so productive </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One I haven't started and the other is in the progress of being done</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's the eating of the Elephant!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks to those that have left me comments I really appreciate them </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are helping me keep on the job and as a thank you to you, when I have finished decluttering and reorganising the first thing I will be creating will be a gift for a lucky someone </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It might be something like these </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
or something completely different</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It will be a random draw and the way it will work is every time you leave a comment your name will go in a jar (a few of you already have your names in the jar) and when the job is completed and item has been made I will draw one name out of the jar who will receive a crafty gift from me </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
turned 14 yesterday</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A sleep over on Saturday night with a few friends is how Miss Anna celebrated her Birthday</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't know why it's called a sleep over as very little sleeping is done</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Saturday night we took the girls down to the Chinese Museum as 2 of the old Dragons were coming out as part of the Chinese New Year Celebrations here</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was something very special to see</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lots of pictures were taken (silly me forgot to take the telephoto lens) so they are not as good as I would have liked but on the positive side I did remember to take the camera</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Loong</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
(known as Old Loong) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He is Heritage Listed a Special Dragon with a very interesting history</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Loong is the oldest Imperial Dragon in the world</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bendigo is known as the home of the Dragons, at Easter time they come out to play</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That is when Sun Loong the Longest Imperial Dragon in the World comes out to parade around the streets It is a magnificent sight to behold</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you are a lover of Chinese Dragons this is the place to be at Easter time I guarantee you will not be disappointed </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Chinese New Year and may the Year of the Dragon be a very special year for you</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
yesterday </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cooked Roast Lamb and Pav for Dinner last night</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yummo!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
can't get more Aussie than that...well may be a burnt Barbecue Snag in bread with lots of dead horse (Tomato Sauce)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I cooked it all from scratch, no cheats yesterday</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Pav filled with whipped Cream and topped with Violet Crumble and Twirl</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(definitely a no go if you are dieting) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I even put a good white table cloth on the table, got out the good dinner set and put the silver candle stick (with candle) in the centre of the table.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The look I got from the girls when they came to the table was you've really flipped your lid this time!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't care what they thought</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The table looked very nice and the food was yummy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just had a thought I hope Chris (that's my other half) doesn't expect me to go into Nigella mode to often</div>

Lemon Curd that I made from the egg yokes left over from making the pav</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4 egg whites for the Pav 4 egg yokes for the Lemon Curd a match made in heaven</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No waste gotta love that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Got totally side tracked from dealing with the Elephant yesterday</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Did a bit of house work you know the stuff that greets you everyday</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dyed Anna's and my hair, Anna is now a very dark brown almost black and mine is Passion Red!!???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
well that's what it said on the packet </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Had a wee bit of drama over at the neighbours last night one of their cats was playing with a Brown Snake</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it was only a little one15+ inches long</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I heard Trav yell out, he need someone to watch that the cats didn't try and get it again while he ran to get a shovel.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Matt and Kylie where at a friends celebrating Australia Day and little brother who is 17 and not so little was in bed sleeping the sleep of the dead</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So me being the good neighbour that I am watch (from our Balcony) while he ran an got the shovel</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I a matter of seconds the head and body of the snake parted ways, ( that's when I ventured over the road) the detached head bit and body were still wiggling like they wanted to find each other for quite some time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yuck not a fan of snakes at all</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Puss is fine he was running around our back yard stalking Maggie's this morning </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After all that excitement last night it was time to watch Storm Chasers then Capitan Jack (Torchwood)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and that was my day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />Today went in to Domestic Goddess mode</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Washing up to date, Ironing up to date until the washing came in off the line, Laundry cleaned, dusted, vacuumed and a a brief Nigella moment, made Lemon Cup Cakes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did get a bite of the Elephant only because I needed some space to do the example of the Friday Night Challenge I set for Scraphappy Kat's Blog and I have a canvas that is a custom order to get done for Sunday and 2 others to finish so that they can be delivered next week</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was very good instead of just dumping the stuff where ever I could find a space I sorted and threw out now I have both the rubbish bins I have in there full to over flowing</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The recycle and garbage bins only have enough room in them for the house rubbish and recycles </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They go out on Monday morning so eating the Elephant has been stopped by lack of space in the bins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I could put all the rubbish/recycles into garbage bags, I sure I would get the ute filled up enough that it would be worth going to the tip</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Think I will sleep on that one??!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the example of the FNC</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I almost forgot to set one, with yesterday being a public holiday I got my days confused</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which is not hard for me, I seem to be confused most of the time </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I remembered this morning but all thoughts of it exited stage left until just after 3pm </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had no idea of what I was going to do so I went down to my still very messy craft space and grabbed a few products and Shabby Chic came to mind</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 hours later I had completed this page</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
OK get it photographed </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I was snapping away when I realised I hadn't put the butterflies on </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so I race down stairs cut out the Butterflies and stuck them on</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's just after 6pm now</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I quickly take a few snaps, down load them, edit them</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and do a blog post I was very grateful that I had no issues with blogger or attaching the Mr Linky</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All done before 7pm</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Phew minor miracle </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
to report on the eating of the Elephant today</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you haven't read my last 2 blog posts you are most likely thinking </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What the hell is this crazy woman on about!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A brief explanation is the Elephant is my craft space and the eating of it is, the decluttering and reorganising.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have made such a mess that a good clean and chuck out was needed badly, so that I once again have room to create</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Are we all on the same page now??? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What did I do yesterday??</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well the day started off with coffee and a bit of net surfing, did some ironing, washing, made the bed and a quick tidy up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Miss Anna and I went to church with the lovely Mrs Down, after church we went for coffee with the ladies who attend the Wednesday service. We had a delight full time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then it was home again, a quick bite to eat then to work for me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Had a bit extra to do at work so that took care of the afternoon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Chris, Bella and I did some supermarket shopping, by the time we got home it was early evening</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hadn't planned on cleaning out the pantry, but it had to be done as a little visitor found a packet of popping corn and had a nibble, so much chucking out scrubbing and disinfecting was done.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Didn't get that job completed last night, finished it this morning </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now we have a very clean neat tidy pantry</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm getting side tracked here I was telling you about the eating of the Elephant</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the tips I read on How to Declutter and Reorganise was to visualise your finished space, that was what I did yesterday so technically I was still on the job<br />
(that's what I'm telling myself)<br />

<br />
are you seeing the same sort of crafting space as me???<br />
These pictures should give it away??<br />
Soft pretty and Shabby Chic<br />
<br />
Oh who am I kidding it will never look like that<br />
Shabby yes but with out the chic<br />
Because my crafting space is in the garage, correction it's supposed to be half the garage and at this stage it has taken over a generous three quarters<br />
<br />
Happy Australia Day to all my Aussie followers I hope you have a fun filled day<br />
