Well, how did everyone enjoy the first day back to school, hmm? For me, it wasn’t such a happy occassion – it marked the end of my blissful scrapping holiday, and the return to the every day activity of planning lessons, programming, dealing with all the politics that comes with working in a school, and of course teaching. There’s a huge dilemma about my classroom … or rather lack of one! But I’m not going to get into that here – too depressing!!

Over the last week of the school holidays, I scrapped up a storm, baby! Lots and lots of lo’s, including some monthly and DT challenges from Little Scrapbook Shop, and lots of lo’s just for fun. I might just save some time – almost EVERYTHING I scrapped on the weekend used My Mind’s Eye Bohemia papers and embellishments … I’m so in love with them, I can’t even tell you!

Here are as many of the lo’s that blogger will let me upload today … please be good little blogger!

Ok, so it’s letting me show you 5 – I’ll upload some more later on.

So, the really exciting news … Kieran started highschool, and after the initial misgivings (he was almost sick with nerves the day before) he LOVES it! He is really in his element – he’s totally loving maths, and his History teacher is a little blown away by his level of knowledge I think. So all is good on that front … I think I’m over the “I’m not ready for my son to be going to high school” phase. It’s kind of good teaching a year 7 class actually, as I can live vicariously through them, and have some kind of an insight into what my son is experiencing.

Ok, I’m off to get some work done – take care, everyone, and give your kids a big HUGE hug … they grow up way too quickly!!
