March report

Wow!  Where did March go?  I guess I was that busy with normal commitments and extras I didn't realised the month has been and gone five days ago.  

Tomorrow it is Rachel's birthday but she will be at her father's this weekend.  He is going to take her and her sister to Seaworld for an experience of a lifetime........swim with the dolphins!! On Wednesday night Rachel and I went to the sports club for dinner with some friends of mine. This club had their weekly raffles on but I didn't win a thing!  One of the other guests at our table managed to win $1000.

My past month has been busy like any other single parent.  I finally got myself online at home but with a mobile wi-fi device. Also I am learning more about windows 7 on my laptop.  

Have been busy sorting out my folders from my external hard drive.  Most of the documents were all over the place and it is a challenge to find them when required.  So I had to get myself organised to have a better system to find things.  It's a very slow progress! Also I clean out my filing cabinet to have a better system going there too.

On 20th March I attend to the stitches and craft show in Brisbane.    I managed to spend around $120 on craft supplies. It was a bargain for most items!!  There were more needlework on display then paper crafting but we will have a bigger paper craft show in June.   

I was lucky to run into two ladies I know from ex-CM workshops. Apparently they aren't really into scrap booking much these days since CM stopped.  Same as me for months but I did managed to get myself back into scrap booking this week by finding a new consultant for Close to my Heart.  I went to her casual sit and scrap on Wednesday for four hours.  I only completed three pages as I was too busy chatting and getting to know the new customers and consultant.  They are a friendly bunch!! This consultant hosts casual meets very fortnightly so I am hoping to go and be able to catch up in my projects in time.  Also this consultant hosts three all day meets on Saturdays per year and one camp. The next camp is scheduled to happen in June.

A friend came to Brisbane for an overnighter visit.  Her partner had to come to Brisbane for a medical appointment but sadly his cancer has came back. I am not sure what the latest will be but all I ask if everyone is to pray for a miracle to happen again.

What are your plans for Easter?  Rachel will be away in Hervey Bay with her father while I am hoping to go away to the Gold Coast with a friend for the long weekend as a friend of mine has her apartment on offer for friends to stay.

All the best for a safe and Happy Easter. If you have any travel commitments, I hope your destination will be a safe journey.
