Here is part of the favors we gave out for the wedding. It is a packet of wild flower seeds. We bought the envelopes and the seeds separate and I made these stickers for them. Since I love flowers and gardening I thought this would be cool. The colors were lavender and sage but it ended up being lots of different shades of those colors.



We are trying to get ready for Jacob to start school around here. I can't believe it is next week!! I have been looking for a part-time job that I could do while Jacob was in school but haven't had much luck!! Lots of part-time jobs but none I am qualified for - nurses etc.. Meanwhile I will keep selling on Ebay.

Another article from Hathor the Cowgoddess:

Can someone tell me WHY this person even had kids???

A quote from the article she wrote:

Sorry, but my children bore me to death!

My children have got used to my disappearing to the gym when they're doing their prep (how boring to learn something you never wanted to learn in the first place).

They know better than to expect me to sit through a cricket match, and they've completely given up on expecting me to spend school holidays taking them to museums or enjoying the latest cinema block-buster alongside them. (I spent two hours texting friends throughout a screening of Pirates Of The Caribbean the other day).


She admits that she doesn't even know the names of her kids teachers and that she begs the nanny to stay because she doesn't like reading to her kids before bed.

I could go on and on about this article but I won't :P
