SWS Weekend

Last weekend was a trip down memory lane.  The Scrapping with Soul retreat was on at Waterslea.  This is an annual weekend scrapbooking retreat from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon.  I say a trip down memory because it was at this retreat five years ago that I met my dear friend Cass.  What a blessing this girl has been in my life.

We spent the weekend scrapping, chatting, laughing, chatting a bit more and just generally "retreating".  Looking forward to next year when hopefully Heidi, Miss Jane and my cousin's partner Tanya will join us.  Oh no... I can hear the madness already.

Our table this year was always full of laughs and loud people.  I love scrapping opposite Haylee and listening to the soundtrack that she always provides for any occasion.  Except when certain songs get stuck in my head!  

All in all a good weekend and I am glad I went.

Girlie Feet

I know to some people this is not so much a special event but more an everyday thing, but I found it exciting..... hmmmm small things do really amuse small minds!
For my birthday last year I got a series of vouchers from Tony and the kids at Berry Beauty Escape.  I had been given a voucher for there the previous Christmas by my work and found them to be probably the best spa/beautician I have been to.  The girls are always friendly, they don't make you feel bad because of my weight and I always come out of there with a smile on my face.
Anyway I booked in for a new experience - a pedicure!  I have not had ANYTHING done to my feet for many years.  What a wonderful treatment.  I would love to do this again one day.
Anyway my feet look like this now........


















Yes I have girlie feet.  I have tried to work out when I last had painted toenails and I think it was about 25 years ago... scary thought!
