Post-Apocalyptic Mojo-ness

Sometimes I don’t know what’s worse….school holidays, or the post-holiday-trauma-in-my-house days!! Yay verilly, we survived and achieved a whole lotta “firsts”.

But first, to the Mojo that arrived these last few days (thank goodness)
Just the FACTS {ma’am} – the July challenge at Scrap The Boys

Couldn’t decide which boy to do, so bung them both on a layout….Mumma can’t play favourites ๐Ÿ˜‰

 Wanted to mix some real soft elements with more edgier ones. Think it worked. Me likey likey.

 Mackinley’s stats……….

 Rainer’s stats…………..

M.W.A.H. (Mother Warriors Are Here) – for Bon’s Write Now challenge, thanks to Skye xoxo

 The crux of this journalling challenge was to write in a Fairytale style…..and I obliged in true epic proportions.

 Am sick to death of my crappy white StazOn ink pad, so I’ve switched to acrylic paint….bahahahaaa

I’m pretty sure I saw this groovy rolling technique on the Prima blog. Needed to steal that one!!!!

Finally,
TEAS-day – Charmane’s online class page at Bon’s Scraps

She shared loads of very cool techniques. Glad I joined in. Every Tuesday, since earlier this year, is now a TEA ONLY day. I found these teas already blended at one of my Organic Grocers and picked one up for Mackinley as well. He no longer has night terrors and is a little nicer in the morning.
Me? Well, I’ve been sick twice in one week and have bounced back quickly (like a 20-something chikkie-babe LOL)…..so I’ll credit the tea drinking for that one.

And some boring family bits….
Rainer made it through 2 “first” appointments – the Chiropractor and the Dentist without incident…woohoooo!!
Mackinley made it through the holidays without being suspended from all electronic privileges *snort*
Hubby and I went to the wedding of Rainer’s God-Father last Sunday.

Had a lovely relaxing time, but was as sick as a dog much later that night. Have no idea why. Everyone says “stress”, I say “der!!!” but was coping well by Monday afternoon. So nice to be out with my Man.
