Here he is! Wentworth Miller from Prison Break PHWOOOOAR!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

question#2 what is the goofiest thing you’ve said/done this week?

Okay LMAO - said by me to hubby while watching Lost 'They're bleeding - blood' I am known to do this sorta thing ALOT - yes I am dippy and proud!!

question #3 If I (or some random other person, as I can’t really answer this properly otherwise haha) walked into your house RIGHT NOW, what would embarrass you the most (be it an item, a mess, your fridge.. whatever)?

Im home all alone right now - the kids are with my Mum, Hubby is playing football so I *should* be using this time to prepare dinner, sweep and mop the floors, do the dishes blah blah - but NOOO I am sat here doing this quiz! LMAO :)

question #4 what creepy things do you have living (or growing.. ) under your bed (due to lack of cleaning of course )?

Alright under the bed we have a spare duvet (rolled up) an assortment of odd shoes (thanks Sophie! - DD has a real obsession with shoes atm) and LOTS of dust! yay go me again with sitting here rather than doing my housework!!

question #5 have you ever done a drive by fart in the super market? Did anyone notice?

I am so laughing at this one - okay WTF is a 'drive by fart ' La?? I admit it - I have let one slip in a supermartket on occasion but never while I was near anyone I mean COME ON! why would yo stand next to a stranger and fart? LOL!

question #6 Finish this sentence… If I were a duck__________.

(Oh my gawd - she's really loosing it huh?!) I would say 'Quack' alot probably oh heck I dunno? swim about and oh yeah eat bread that little kids throw at me! yeah!

question #7 google it … dude do it! ” your name is” __

Well I googled my name and discovered that I am pretty taleneted because amonst other things I am - a councillor in London, a Professional Photographer, a member of the British Karate Team AND a lawyer - yes am I pretty super duper arn't I???

question #8 what colour are your underwear?

Today - black (puuuurrr) most days? non a non-matching assortment of whatever I find and sling on first!

question #9 if you could be with anyone right now, who would it be? why? (I’m not talking dirty here people.. stay with me, focus! lol)

I'd like to be with my Sister's I guess - there have been some tough times in the last few month (this past week, immeansly) I would love right now to just be somewhere chillin' with them all in the sun and feeling good :)

question #10 close your eyes, what do you see? (well, not SEE see.. obviously, work with me, it’s 230am )

Just blackness! Did I miss something cool? I bet I did! blah!

Thanks La! you crazy goat loving thang! if anyone else would like to share their answers then go check out this edition of from our blog to yours at SSD!

Good Morning Sunshine

Well its another Monday morning and today (for a change) I do not feel miserble! I wanted to show you these darling little gits I got for Mothers Day from Ryan which the Nursery went to alot of trouble to do for us Mums!
check this out:

They put on a little singing session on Friday, and sany some beautiful songs about 'Mothers' and also they had these little booklets made that each child from the Nursery had described their Mum, its was totally cute to read (and down right hysterical in parts!) listen to what Ryan had to say about me:

I say "I'm hungry Mummy" and she gives me Shreddies in a bowl. I eat them all up and she says "Good boy!" Mummy gives me and Sophie big cuddles and I say thank you I love my Mummy 2,3,5,6,7. Mummy gets lots of money to get sausage rolls and a cake for me. Mummy stays at home to look after me and Sophie and Daddy goes to work. I love Mummy Porridge - lots of porridge - she is so nice she is - Mummy is pretty in pink - pink things - all her clothes.

Ummm Haha thanks sweetie! don't kids say the oddest of things? I loved it, they also hand made cards for us and earlier in the week we all donated some money and the children then choose a girft for us that they wrapped up by themselves - Ryan choose this little bear and flower stem that says number 1 mum on it :) and if this wasn't spoiling us enough they also picked a daffodil with some foilage and wraped it in a doily with some silver ribbon and baked us cupcakes too! (Ryan ate the cake before I could snap it though!) It was totally sweet, so much work and I think they Nursery teachers did a really great job!

So I also have completed my first LO for Lauren Reids CT! here it is:

I scrapped the pics from Linz's 21st the other week, I have also done it in 8'5x11 and I am gonna print it and frame it this week for her! see credits here

Okay time to run and get Ryan from Nursery - I am hoping to get some scrapping time in this afternoon I have LOTS and LOTS of goodies sitting in my CT folders eagerly waiting to get used!

Quirky!

So I thought I would just share real quick before I go to bed, Ryan has apparently found a quirky new way to eat McDonald's, as usual he scoffed all his nuggets right away but to make the fries more tasty he dipped every single one into his strawberry milkshake! yep he really did - personally I prefere bbq sauce but each to their own I guess!!

I treated him to a 'Nuggets' (as he likes to call it) for lunch today because I am just SO happy with him right now he has had a real turn around from being pretty difficult to being wonderful, we ordered him some new Thomas and Friends trains last week for his new good behaviour and they had arrived today - while I was out shopping UGH! so I headed to the depo but the package had not arrived back yet SIGH so he'll have to get them tomorrow now.
