I wish I could say we were doing something thrilling today.
But we are not.
I have to go to the Dr's and pick up me piddle pills, then swing by Payless Plastics to see if they have something I can display my cards on for when I do the Pokeno Market.
That is about it!
Well.. at some point I will need to get back to the card making too... yesterday I got masses of them ready with the fabric sewn on... now all I have to do is add the 'finishing' touches, which actually takes quite a while for each card. Oh well... at least I love doing it.
ONWARD...
HI! We've had a busy morning.... went to Payless Plastics and got two Document Holders for displaying my cards at Market:
ABOVE: see? Neat and on sale, 50% off. SCORE!
After that we bought summer sandals for the kids.. what a nightmare that was. Griffin has HUGE feet and is as fussy as a girl... and Brylee has looooong narrow feet and it's almost impossible to find anything that fits her feet. But we did eventually.
After having lunch at the mall we went and checked out an Open Home:
*sigh*
MAGGIE: yes we currently live in a very quiet area. But I still love that house, and as the previous owners have lived there happily for 40 years I reckon we could get used to the traffic hum?
End of Day: It's been interesting. And maybe even momentous, as we are seriously thinking of listing our home for sale! Scary thought. nite nite.
your work is gorgeous Chris as always :) hope you all have a wonderful Saturday...

Hi Chris, where do you currently live in NZ. The house you are thinking of buying is great, but are you used to complete quiet where you are now.

ReplyDeletecan c y u love the house Chris it is awesome...love the bathroom staircase that kitchen it massive master bedroom office area
ReplyDeleteWOW LOVE IT
ohhh the house looks awesome...and believe me after a while you wouldn't even notice the noise !
ReplyDeleteLove the cards...you going to do chrissy cards for your stall..that would work...going to ask would you do a small order for me anyways?
Your cards are looking great - as usual Chris :))
ReplyDeleteAs for the house ... the pool would sell it for me! Looks like a very spacious place. We live on the corner of a very busy road in Christchurch, and you kind of get use to the noise after a while - most of the time we don't notice these days - except for when emergency vehicles are shooting past with their sirens wailing. We even have buses stop outside every 10 minutes or so - don't notice them generally.
I love your cards!! The house is beautiful ...you would probably get use to the noise.
ReplyDeleteI live on a street that is a major exit to a highway. I have gotten used to the noise. It now sounds like the ocean to me, coming in waves. We also have double pane windows and a really thick door which helps reduce the noise.
ReplyDeleteLook at the pool ahhhhh so nice!! But I don't know if I could handle the traffic noise. We live in the country and I like the quiet!
