hello bloggers hows things?

I'm in a transition time , which is always a good thing :):)

new job offer at work makes me Happpppppppppy

and gives me opportunity to grow and develop  in my first career of catering .

(which means completing my chefs ticket)....boooo------yahhhhhh

but I'm sort a super tired of carrying the weight of the family's financial concerns.

and I'm not really one to talk about whats happening but i don't really have a vent place

 and nobody really reads stuff...so hears a good place to have a vent ....

and its been 6 yrs of full time work for me --prior ,with kids it was part time ) 

with no serious holidays since last year..(when i changed jobs)

and despite the reminders that everyone has to work ,its falling on Paul's deaf ears and over a period of years i'm at a loss to understand why its hard to work for the ones you love ...i don't seem to have a problem..i like a pay packet and giving to the ones i love . isn't it easy to work for the the ones who are supposed to mean the most well i think so and its getting me down..its making my heart very sad , and I'm sad for the kids for what they are missing out on .and then i think well Lisa maybe your all about getting stuff and its a money thing..but its not that .its about motivation and persistence and for love ..for Family...whats more important ? well not bloody me , that's for sure .pretty sad all round really ....grrrrrrrr ..vent over .

and now to make myself feel just a little better

i love these pics asti took ..sigh :)

 just a few layouts and a canvas im working on for a wedding in Nov

Peace and Love

October Long Weekend /Family Day 

Oh October,the end of another year draws even closer and for me it was a special little weekend,

even though i only had Sunday off :):(

Big thanks to the wonderfully talented Jo KKMF Kinder, for hosting a small scrap swaray on Saturday evening gave me time to throw together this little baby..been playing with this quote for a few days .

For the last 35 odd years the October long weekend has been a time to get together and catch up with all the crew , now in days of old ,that could be up to 100 or so relo's floating around -backyard cricket -bbq- and the Bathurst car race on the box..

This weekend ,torrential rain,bloody footy, and Qld vacations kept a bulk away ,but what does that matter when your gorgeous Nanna(mamma) is there ♥...i just love them all..big thanks to my Bro for actually coming to family day and then getting to the final as well.

Aunty Margret,Mamma and my mum Barb
