MDO

5 comments

Sitting, slowly sipping Kahlua 'n coke... letting the poo day I just had flow out of me and into oblivion...
and planning my day tomorrow.

You see we were lined up for 3 full days of V8 madness... but it has turned out I have an unexpected day off tomorrow as Mike was not really able to take the day off... soooo

Option 1: Go to the racing alone.... hmmm...

Option 2:


I am SO excited about option 2 that it's almost depressing.
Planning is one thing... my ability to stick it is totally another... we will see...


PS: Greeny and I are still not on very good speaking terms. I have spoken with the local sewing shop about "counciling".

So inspired by Silje. Rachel and the other Red Velvet girls that I pulled my much loved, but abandoned, vintage sewing machine out of the garage.

We have a love hate relationship - I love it, it hates me... it makes me mad, I throw it back in the suitcase and into the garage it goes again.

But I REALLY wanna learn how to use it. I figure that it's survived since the 60's and it be like killing it's soul if I didn't.

So yeah if anyone can tell me what all though knobs do I'd be SO stoked... seriously.

In more news I finally tracked down my drivers licence... well it tracked me down - it was at the police station looking for me. So I can drive legally again ;) Good thing really.

Well that's all for now... I am off to enjoy a wonderfull 11 hour day at work..... HOORAY!

Couldn't help myself... just loving me some new tunes lately so had to share.

We'll just see how the weekend treats us.

Click on my flickr majigee over on the side bar to see inside my Marokopa laminated mini album.

Yip jumped on that laminated album bandwagon... harder that you think to find stuff that can go through a laminator... fun though.

That seond layout (fyi) is fo the latest Kiwi Jack Me Up... head on over and have a Jack nooky at the Trina McClunie layout we are lifting this month.

OK I am off - Rove's on... missed Rove. Then watching The Brothers Solomon... should be 'interesting'.

Oh and a big HIYA shout out to my 3 bloglines subscribers... am addicted to blog lines... I have 104 feeds... yip, exactly.
