Out with a bang!

The kids got a great shock over the weekend. They were sitting down together playing the organ when there was a bang and smoke started pouring out of it! BUT instead of calling out or moving they both sat there frozen watching the smoke! Good thing I was nearby - called for Tony and ran and grabbed the fire extinguisher. Kids okay but the organ is no good! We burnt out the power box thingy (yes that is the proper term ~L~) so it is now goodbye to the old organ.

Only 10 days till I go to Melbourne - how do you pack clothes for 5 days and scrapping stuff for five days as well!?! I normally take three bags to go scrapping for a day AND because I'm flying there is a weight limit. Have to work on small projects! - If truth be told there will probably be more chatting, giggling and imbibing of wine done than scrapping.

oh wow... thank goodness you were close!!


now... on to Melbourne.. well.. this is how i see it...
We have a washing machine that is turned on every day! ~L~... bring a change of clothes wile the others wash! That solves the issue of scrapping space.. otherwise, just bring jammas and we will have days and days of PJ scrapping.. i do it most days anyway!~L~ They should make PJs a standard dress code then we would not have an issue! ~L~

PS: only 3 days!!!
