A Little Musing ...

I’m now on day 5 of my antibiotics, and I’m starting to feel much better – thankfully. I’m still really tired and fit for absolutely nothing by the time I get home from work, but at least I feel like I’m getting somewhere.

I have to share with you a conversation I had with Ethan this morning. We were waiting outside the bathroom for Sean to come out – me so that I could get in there for a shower, and Ethan so that he could go downstairs with Sean for some breakfast (I am so lucky that my lovely Sean is happy to sort out breakfast for them both each morning). Ethan was holding one of his teddy bears, so I said to him ‘Ethan, is teddy having crumpets for breakfast too?’ He gave me a withering look and said ‘Mummy, it’s a TEDDY BEAR. It’s NOT REAL. It’s full of fluff’ … well, pardon me for being so stupid!

I’m still chuckling now, he’s such a funny little man. Anyway, I think the conversation is layout-worthy, and I have a fair idea of how I want it to look … so yeah! It looks like my Mojo might be coming back to me at last!

Speaking of Mojo, I was all set to enter the ScrapArtist designer competition, but I just couldn’t get anywhere. I started about four different kits, but only got as far as making two different papers for each, and it just wasn’t flowing for me. So, I decided (for once in my life!) to be a grown-up and take the decision that I obviously wasn’t meant to compete this time around, and that I should devote my energies to getting better and then start building up a stock of designs in the hope that next time I will be more able to come up with the goods. Of course this also means that I can relax and enjoy all the gorgeous work that everybody entering has submitted. Go, girls!
