I need to vent!!!

I'm such a grouch!!! arrrggghhh...
dunno what's up wif me these few days.
Maybe its the lack of sleep. :(
I blew up at Kady over the smallest things.
sigh... Kady has been coughing since 2 weeks ago.
& she has been coughing in her sleep for the past week waking up at 3-4am.
wanting to nurse every hour or so.
I'm sooo bloody tired every morning. Find it such a drag to wake up.
Dh has been great, when I wake up in the middle of the night, he helped out too.
Get medicine & warm water for the little one.
Mojo for Sb is gone. :_(
Angry wif myself for blowing up at Kady too. *sob sob*
She's already sick & yet this bad mommy is still being so mean!
She hasn't exactly been an angel for the past week but still...
When will my mood be good again???

Y'day, Kady fell from the sofa while trying to climb on my back (I was lying on my tummy across the sofa) & Fell!!!!! dh's comments were kinda hurtful tho' he probably din mean it. But it hurt anyway!
Why is it that when Kady falls when she's in his care, I never say things like, "Be careful mah! Shld look aft her properly!" etc when he always make such comments??!!! Why are men so insensitive at times?
I already felt bad when she fall, does he has to rub it in??!

below are 3 LOs that I completed earlier...

Swingin' Good Times

1st ride on the swing @ Kranji Reservior.
You were apprehensive @ 1st. But soon found the joy of sitting on the swing. You even wanted Mummy to let go & let you sit on the swing all by yourself!

she is centuries old,
Just to see her at play makes me smile,
No matter what happens to me,
No matter what my destiny,

& 1 for HMITM challenge # 7

Ok. The earlier LO that I did & thot of submitting cannot make it.
I re-read the rules & it has to be 5 diiferent circles, stripes & flowers.
The earlier don't even qualify! :P

So I re-do another. Here it is. I used PPs from 7 gypsies and Urban Lily. Picture was just taken last Saturday from our outing to Sentosa. :)




& this LO will be gg into Kady's ABC album for Q - my Quirky Girl. :)
I like the white rub ons. But not so crazy over the black.
I went ballistic with the rubons now my right side of the LO looked messed up! :(

2 LOs from last night

Here's 2 LO that I completed last night...

Naughty by Nature
This LO was done for HMITM challenge to use stripes, flowers & circles BUT after doing this LO, I wasn't too pleased with it & also I just realised I don't know where to post in the HMITM blog... :(
sigh....


About 3
This LO was inspired by an old challenge again from HMITM to use stickers.
If I remembered correctly, it was to use at least 50 stickers??
I think I just abt hit 50. This helps to clear some of stickers stash! :P

Great Weekend

We had a great weekend....

Went to Sentosa with Kady on Saturday.
Brought her to the Underwater World & Dolphin Lagoon.
She was soooo happy! We also took on the beach tram + buses... (I can't wait to scrap the pictures!!!)
Then we had a small dinner of salad. Afterwhich we went to catch a "Movie by the Beach" show - 2 Fast 2 Furious (I think this is the movie title) at Siloso Beach, but we didn't manage to finish watching the show 'cos its hot & humid & Kady was being cranky for being out the whole afternoon. That + my back was killing me from sitting on the beach w/o proper back support. :P

Verdict for watching a movie by the beach - Be Prepared. Bring yr own chairs, drinks, snacks & make sure that you are comfy. Else watching a movie outside w/o the airconditioning in our weather can be quite a torture. Yes, I'm pampered. So what? Give me air conditioned cinemas & comfy chair anytime! *lol*

Was dead tired by the time we reached home so did not managed to scrap. Can you imagine? I was still tired on Sunday? But not tired enough to stay at home! hahahaha...
We went to Takashimaya (a shopping centre in Orchard Road) 'cos there's a Toy Fair there & bought X'mas presents for the nieces & nephews. Called me kiasu but since I can save a pretty penny by buying the pressies on a sale, why not? I can use the savings to get more SB stuff! *wink* that + I don't have to rush/ think what to get for the kiddos later on when its near the Xmas season/ rush.

& oh, here's another LO that I did earlier last week.

LOs using Basic Grey

Its my 1st attempt doing LOs using Basic Grey's PP...
I've always find their PPs difficult to work with as I really do not know how to do them.
So as a challenge to myself, I bought a kit & force myself to work with them. :P

Completed them last week & here they are:

Current Obsessions:
Hi 5
Thomas Engine
Mummys Milk
Chocs
Sweets



Love for a Daughter
Journalling reads: Love for a Daughter is like a rose, Everyday it grows & grows.


She's Something Special
This LO was also done using July's kit...

Journalling reads:
She's something special, I can't explain it,
But when she's near me, I can't contain it.
And just one look at her face is good enought for me.

No way of knowing which way I'm going,
But I can't stop it, it keeps growing
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.

She aint too pretty, she aint too tall,
In fact she aint too much of anything at all,
I don't care what the people say, they're going to find out one sweet day.

She's is precious, she is charming,
She is innocent its really disarming.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.

This is actually the song lyrics to the song "She's something special" by Eric Clapton.

Never been seen b4 LO... & another one

Remember I was whining abt hving no mojo a few days back?

Well, I was trying out a new style & did this LO:

I quite like this so may experiment a few more LOs with this kina style... LOL... till I get bored again!

This other LO was done quite a while back & I really didn't like it. Find that it is too empty, alot of dead space? & yet, I am too lazy to re-do... But thot I'll share it here anyways...

No mojo....

Kady is on the road to recovery. That's good news.

The bad news is I hv not had any mojo lately. Maybe its cos I am tired.
Wanna scrap so much but when I sit at the table, I am at a loss! :(

These 2 LOs are scraplifts from 2peas for the challenge in M4M.

I like the "YOU" LO loads! :)
Had fun sanding the PP.
Journalling ard the alpha YOU reads:
"So much I love abt this picture! Your curly hair, your dimples, your little button nose. Your smiley face, rosy lips. Its all about You!"

For the 2nd LO - You are my Favorite Moment,
rubon @ the bottom left corner says: "something cherished for its fine quality and often considered one of a kind."
