Back in the building!

Hi Bloggettes!

AM BACKKKKK!!!

Mind you I suppose you've gathered that by now. ;)) So we've had a fantastic time in very very sunny Florida. I have several hundred pictures I can show you later! You think I'm kidding don't you.... I also made like a diary thing so I can bore er tell you about that too!

Well to start you off a couple of gratuitous parrot pictures - taken before we went away I hasten to add. This is little Missy Tinker munching on a chicken bone, it almost seems cannibalistic in a way.


Here is her Ladyship Harry - or as she is now known - Madam Bitey Britches! (more soon) She too is eating a chicken bone, being a Lady though she is using a plate to eat hers!

Her new name? Well Harry gets a bit, OK a LOT vexed when we, well me go away. She comes back in a really bitey mode! If she could chew my arms off she would! So we have to have a while of me ignoring her - strangely it does seem to help. If not she goes to see the vet for a bit of parrot HRT! So fingers crossed that I'll still be able to cross mine and keep them intact!

Now more importantly I need you to prepare yourselves - I thought I'd show you a pic of my newly acquired stash! Now firstly we have 'some' of the papers that I bought. Well a girl can never have too many papers can she? On the plus side I have just got rid of loads of paper! There was room on the rack which needed to be filled!
I also managed to find one or two punches..... well I could'nt decide which one to get....

Now a nicely blurry one of a more 'en mass' shot of the stash. My hand was shaking as I was on the phone! Nothing to do with a frisson of excitement at it piled up in its glory!
So I got dies, punches, ribbons, paper(s), rub ons, flowers, findings, hat pins, Cricut cartridges, stamps (of course!). Oh and I got myself a Slice too!

Now in addition to this I also did some shopping for you my lucky Bloggettes! Yup thats right- for YOU - Caique Momma has bought you some candy. Well I figured a reward was in order, heck you need some reward for reading my drivel!

I'll photo it tomorrow and get it sorted.

Good grief Net, you sure do know how to shop don't you? You're my kind of shopper, I'm coming next time ha ha.

Hiya Net, blimey what a lot of stash, AND you got a slice! Mind you, I can talk having just hauled a couple of suitcases full of stuff over the pond. What's that parrot doing eating chicken. Haven't you told her that greens is what she should be eating? Send her to Heavenly Ridiculousness or whatever the place was called at once. A girl needs her greens.
luv
