Thank you all for your encouraging comments about my addiction, I feel much better now.

I have three and a half days at work this week and then three wonderful weeks of annual leave.  It’s going to feel like such a long week!  Before I start my holidays I always like to write down a list of things I plan to get done, it keeps me focused.  Already on my list are three trips to the dentist, bleah!  Also on the list is the mandatory school book pick up for Bailey, labelling the books and all of Nick’s new school uniform.  That should be lots of fun hey! 

But on the top of my list is getting this  lot sorted…

The draw is filled with mobile phone, digital camera and Gameboy re-chargers,  if you have any suggestions for sorting out this mess please pass them on.  I have an idea to put each one in a labeled press seal bag or maybe getting some pretty ribbon and some labels for each one but I’m not sure the boys will put them back in the bag or re-tye the ribbon.  

The other messy lot is the result of my husbands endless obsession with copying every DVD  and CD that comes across our doorstep.  No need to call the pirating police, he isn’t making copies for re-sale, oh no if only it was that simple.  He makes copies of our originals so that the children don’t scratch them and render them unwatchable.  Of course the end result is we have twice as many DVD’s to find homes for!  I have put some in a nice easy access cd folder for the boys to use but there are still more.  Do these things multiply overnight??

Finally I’d like to thank Barbara for giving me this lovely award earlier this week.  I’m going to pass this award on to three people, it’s supposed to be ten but that is far too many for me.

First up is Kirsty at Two Lime Leaves.  Kirsty’s take on life always makes me laugh and she is an inspiring crafter too.

The second blogger I find amazing is Rebecca at Irish Sally Garden.  She blogs about her rural life on their farm and their quest to be self sufficient.  I am constantly inspired by her posts.

And finally I can’t go past Corey at Tongue in Cheek.  She lives in France and her posts are just amazingly romantic and beautiful.   I visit daily to feast on her words.

Now if you don’t see your name here please don’t feel sad, it doesn’t mean I don’t love you.   I have a huge list of blogs I read all the time and it was really hard to choose just a few for this award.   

I’m off to get these boys in order and get myself ready for work.  Have a lovely week everyone.
