OMG, I got a place

I won a place on the Angel Crafts Design Team, Yahoo, toot toot, whoppppyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

I know I already do alot with Angela and for her shop, but I seriously did not expect to still be doing that once she put the call out for her DT, I did actually see one or two of the applications when we where working together on the Luxurious Angels Retreat stuff, and OMG, I was blown away, such amazing super scrappers out there, and I'm so honoured to have been put in amongst them. I only hope I can do Angela and her business justice.

I have had to step down though from the Kraft Stop Design team, not because Angela asked or anything, but I did not want to over stretch myself and I would have hated to have had to say no to such a wonderful opportunity. Lynn over at Kraft Stop understood which was great.

I've finally finished the Lippy Chick site, and I love it, love it, love it. If anybody fancy's a sneak peek at my new book, which is going to be launched in March nip over and check out the coming soon page, and all will be revealed. hee hee

I'm away this weekend at Stitches in Birmingham, which I'm so looking forward to, I leave on Saturday and get to spend the night at the amazing Lisa T's or Jane as her mum likes to call her, hee hee, then Sunday we go to Stitches, meet up with tons of friends, get to see all the new scrummy products about to hit the market and have tons of coffee and cakes and gossip. Then on Monday, I'm gonna visit a few more friends in the Manchester area and then homewards bound I go. I can't wait, an opportunity to leave this building site will be fantastic. I actually feel quite sorry for Gerry, as I have the next 3 weekends planned away and he has to stay in the stinky dusty pit we call our home.

We are currently sharing our bathroom with a wardrobe, chest of drawers and a bedside table, its making for a tight squeeze to the shower and toilet, hee hee, good job we are all slim in this house.

Ben got a valentines card today, and his face is a pure picture, trying to figure out who its from, he let me take pics of him opening it, etc and I'm planning on having a go at the pencil lines sketch with the pics once I've downloaded them. I got one card, mmmmmmmhhhhhhhh wonder who that was from ????

Did you get any cards????

Anyway, Desperate Housewives is about to start, so I'm off, catch you all later.

Joke of the day:
A champion jockey is about to enter an important race on a new horse. The horse's trainer meets him before the race and says,
"All you have to remember with this horse is that every time you approach a jump, you have to shout, "ALLLLEEE OOOP!" really loudly in the horse's ear. Providing you do that, you'll be fine".
The jockey thinks the trainer is mad but promises to shout the command. The race begins and they approach the first hurdle. The jockey ignores the trainer's ridiculous advice and the horse crashes straight through the center of the jump.
They carry on and approach the second hurdle. The jockey, somewhat embarrassed, whispers "Aleeee ooop" in the horse's ear. The same thing happens -- the horse crashes straight through the center of the jump.
At the third hurdle, the jockey thinks, "It's no good, I'll have to do it" and yells, "ALLLEEE OOOP!" really loudly. Sure enough, the horse sails over the jump with no problems. This continues for the rest of the race, but due to the earlier problems the horse only finishes third.
The trainer is fuming and asks the jockey what went wrong. The jockey replies,
"Nothing is wrong with me -- it's this bloody horse. What is he -- deaf or something?"
The trainer replies, "Deaf?? DEAF?? He's not deaf -- he's BLIND!"
