Sultry Saturday!

Today was humid after the huge, and I mean huge, storm last night. It wasnt very sunny, but was still warm. Today was really busy for me.
Firstly, I had to make sure Reuben could go back to Steve's (long story), so then took him over to him, then went to Alyson's to feed Pippa (the cat).
While I was down that way, I thought I'd go and have a look at the stamp/scrap shop. I bought (and I shouldnt have but what the heck!!!) a lovely little flower stamp and a hero arts tag with words set. Ive really been wanting them (tags) for ages so I just had to put myself out of my misery!!!!
I drove back to Katrina's and we had a cuppa and a chat while we decided if we should go and see a movie. So we decided we would go to the Hyperdome (shopping centre) and have some lunch and see a movie. We decided to watch "Rumour Has It" with Kevin Costner and Jenifer Anniston. It was one of the funniest movies I have watched in a long time. It had a great story line and a chick flick ending, that everything works even though life sucks and mistakes are made. After the movie we went to Muffin Break and had a cuppa, I had a Chai Latte and Katrina had a hot chocolate with marshmallows. We then went and had a look at some shops we normally wouldnt go in due to time or the fact they look too expensive! We found some great stuff for pressies. We decided to go and Katrina asked me if I would like to go with her to check on Gails pool and help her feed the dog. Well its good that I did as Katrina was freaking out. The fish tank wasnt pumping due to the loss of electricity from the storm last night and was very hot. After deciding to let it cool down we went outside to check on the pool, Katrina couldnt get the creepy crawly pump thingy working... again freaking out... I helped her get the leaves out and I played with Nugget (labrodore), throwing him his toy duck. It was then that I saw the tree had fallen over in the back yard and had knocked a few palings from the fence. Katrina was freaking out about another dog getting in or Nugget getting out. Finally, the creepy crawly worked, the fish pumped worked and we tried to fix the fence. Me... I would have left the fence!!! LOL but Katrina is such a great house minder she had to make sure it was secure. It was so good spending time with her. No matter what we do it always works out to be fun. After we checked the house for dampness as it smelt musky but could find none we left. I took Katrina home and came home. Boy what a day.

Now Im making some tags for ebay. I made 2 sets last week and both have sold. I am amazed, I think they were cheap but it was more of an experiment than anything. The money that I make Im going to put in a little bag and when I have enough Im going to buy a stamp. Hopefully they will keep selling and that will keep my creative juices flowing.

bye for now,
