Ever have a week that is so busy you barely have time to think! I had one of those this week. A crazy non-stop whirlwind, where everything seemed to need doing at once. Did I complete everything I needed to? No, but it will still be waiting for me tomorrow, or the next day! LOL! How was it so busy?....we had 20 boxes of product arrive from the US, then the next day another 11 boxes and the day after that another 6 boxes! Someone has to enter all those new product lines into the system and that someone was me! On the bright side it was great to wallow in the new KI Memories, Creative Imaginations, Lil Davis, Heidi Swapp, American Craft, Cactus Pink, Scrapworks, Karen foster, Junkitz, and Urban Lily. Ohhhh did I get myself some goodies! Lots of chipboard alphas, because anyone that knows me knows i have a serious alphabet addiction! LOL!! I have created a couple of pages from some of the new stuff for classes at the shop (I made time to do this, a girl has got to be able to play a little bit and it was work that needed to be done at any rate!).
To make matters more interesting this week, DH had to go to Melbourne for a few days. I have to say that the kids were really well behaved for me. Cam didn't even try on his usual bedtime routine of getting up 4 or 5 times. On the down side they are all up at 6am!!! Aaaarghhhhh, I hate the changeover of daylight saving back to normal time, it just messes with your body clock! The kids really missed their Dad while he was away, and I asked them if they missed me when I go away and the cheeky little devils said NO!!! How rude is that!!! Mind you Cam went back that night and played on the computer and printed off a page that said "You are Great Mum, I love you!" He redeemed himself! I put it on the fridge to remind me that they do love me heaps as well, even if the older ones are Daddy's boys!
Back to the grindstone for me! So much to do, so little time. For that matter, so much to scrap, so little time as well.
sure must of be tough sorting through all those boxes of goodies!! You poor thing. LOL
hope you have a less busy week next week

Yes, sorting through new product sounds like torture! You would just want to rip the packets open and start playing!

Lots and lots of boxes sounds divine. Not the unpacking though. LOL.
As for daylight saving. Ugh. We went through it a few weeks ago and it was a 'challenge'. LOL. Hope its sorted out for you soon.
