Rainy old Saturday.

May 17th, 2008

What a lovely sound to hear as I woke today … rain, rain, rain.  Here in Melbourne we have had at least seven years of drought with very few wet spells.  Today the weather bureau have promised, yes they have promised, that it will rain all day, and so far they are keeping their word.

I’ve spent the morning madly rushing around like a loon-on-speed as I’m having a party this afternoon.  Not one of those loud music and lots of booze kinda parties, better than that, it’s a scrapbooking party.  Woohoo, bring on 2 o’clock.  One of my lovely friends, Kylie, has decided to become a scrapbook consultant and I have agreed to hold a class for her.  I’ve invited lots of friends that wanted to learn the art of scrap’n, put together a beautiful thank you gift which include a full kit to make the concertina mini album I’m showing here.  I’m about to whip up a delish dip to nibble on while Kylie does her demonstration and chill a nice bottle of wine.

Thank you to all that came and read my last post, and also to those that commented here and emailed me.  I’ve had to delete the link to the Sunday program as it has now been taken off their web site but I’m sure if anyone is interested that I could get a transcript of the segment.  I’m going to leave the 1000 Hours tally  and link on my side bar so that anyone wanting to register in the future can do so.

Finally it has been twelve months since Red the wonder dog arrived at our home, he was so small and cute and now he’s big and beautiful. Happy Birthday Red!

 

Have a great weekend everyone.

    Oh Maddy, it looks like it will be a wonderful scrappin’ party. How much fun to get those lovely packets. Happy Birthday Red! I especially like the photo of your backside, sir.

    Hurray for the rain. It is going to rain after a week here in Bradford and we are getting giddy.

    Happy Birthday Red. Can I come and scrap too? (lol). Have a fun time and enjoy the rain.

    Sounds like fun. A party is a great idea when the weather’s rainy. Believe me, I know rainy. I was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest area of the US. Rain is its middle name. And then I lived for a long time in Papua. Lots of tropical rain. There’s a reason I now live in Southern California. Once in a while though I miss the sound of the rain on the roof.

    Although I love scrapbooking I have never actually been to a scrapbooking party. It looks like your guests are in for a real treat! Happy Birthday Red!!

    Maddy, your dogs looks absolutely gorgeous! I am trying to convince Matt that we NEED a dog but he’s not buying it. Silly man! Clairey xxx
