Morning, thank goodness the rain has stopped, yesterday was awful, we went a drive to herne bay to the ice cream parlour as we were all fed up of being indoors.
GS fell asleep in the car but as soon as his ice cream appeared he was awake in a flash, he loves blue bubblegum ice cream, yuck, tastes like medicine but he loves it, we were naughty and had hot chocolate with lashings of whipped cream, marshmallows and a chocolate flake, lovely but it filled me up!
He was racing Grandad to the play park when he fell and grazed his hand quite bad on the gravel so we had to go home, he was like a wounded soldier holding his hand out so no one touched it, then it poured with rain so Steve and son collected the car, we sat in the shelter, He had grazed his knee through his jeans too, after his bath he had two plasters, that cheered him up, LOL
Now that I able to get back to cardmaking after my right-hand surgery and my doctor's release, I'll be playing lots of challenge catch-up starting with S2S190 - "Using Scraps." All the elements on my card are made using scrap cardstock and patterned paper, except the cardbase and its 2 mat layers.
Hi everyone else. Quick hello before I get back to my chores. The garage is done....as much as can be done for now. Starting on the inside now...phew.
Also in the throes of finalising trip plans for next year that is taking longer than usual and no wonder my head is spinning. It has to be finalised as much as possible this week...we are on a mission. Golf has even taken a backseat this week. It's been a nice change.
We are also down to 1 car and it's tricky some days but we are giving it a trial for now. Hubby has brochures for a new one but we can't seem to make a decision or justify the cost for it to sit 5 days, maybe more in the garage. Tricky.
No craft for me at present but once I am on top of things I will be back. I am adding the challenges to my list LOL.
It's also school holidays here so seeing more of the poppets..yay.
Hope that you are all well. I'm monitoring my BP daily at present as it's been high. I'm also trying to lose some weight and move more...it's challenging.
That's my news. Take care everyone and sending hugs. I will pop on when I can.

Thank you everyone! I think your well wishes worked! I can walk much better today. My body is full of inflammation for some reason. My son was kind and brought me food. We had a nice meal together.
I don't know when grumpy is gonna propose.. They would actually need to spend time together! They are both so busy!
Well, guess who forgot today. I went on a prayer walk at 7:00 a.m., then came home and got ready for Bible study, and drove someone home and then picked up a few groceries. Sat down to have lunch and suddenly remembered that I had not posted a Thursday challenge. I'm afraid I do not have a sample.
October 4 is 'world smile day'. So put a smile on your face and create a card that will put a smile on the recipient's face, or feature a smiling face or the word 'smile'. Not too difficult I think. I did find a sample. A card I made at our demo get together on Tuesday. Not my design, but I did make it. The snowman has a smile on his face.l
Smiles, good! I was afraid I was going to have to make a shaker card! LOL
Yours are gorgeous, Ina.
Lynn, I am on Facebook, but, it says “closed group”, so I couldn’t see it.Congratulations to grumpy and Sweet Pea, that is if gets to propose! At
least you have done your part.
Happy Thursday and happy birthday to Melissa. She doesn't pop on here much but I thought I'd say happy birthday to her anyway LOL. Hope that she has a fabulous day now that she's joined the flirty 50's.
Enjoy everyone

Happy belated birthday Melissa, wish I was still only a flirty fifty, LOL
Just had my nails done and we had breakfast out, Bacon, sausage, egg and fried tomatoes, an occasional treat while we are here, just finished buying treats for the family to take, we’ve been all over looking for curly whirlies, space ships and aero mint bubbles, I’m sure you know what I mean Jayne.
DIL has already emailed to say they are taking us to my favourite restaurant for lunch on Sunday, Its in Half moon bay on the seafront, Im already drooling thinking of a crab Louie salad!
Belated happy birthday wishes to both Lynn and Melissa. Hope your days were fantastic.
I have not been on-line much lately. Thursdays are getting challenging for me, so I will try to post challenges on Wed. evenings from here on in. It's still dark at 7 am, so I do not wake up as early. Our morning walk starts at 7:30, then I have just enough time to get freshened up before going out to Bible study from 9-11. Just now getting on-line.

The third Wednesday of October, which was 'Take your Teddy bear to work' day. So let's feature Teddy bears (or any kind of bears) in our cards/projects this week. I do not have a sample for you this week.
On Sunday morning, I looked at my calender, and rejoiced as I did not have very much scheduled. Ha, ha! Life happened with a vengeance! More about that later. Right now, as long as the weather is so beautiful, there is garden and yard work to be done.

Woohoo! I'd do a cartwheel but I never could do them even when I was pain free! The last activity I did was the chicken dance at DS's wedding two years ago! But I paid dearly for that for a week afterwards!
Congratulations Lynn to you all..exciting times ahead.
Happy weekend everyone
