hanging onto the past....

It can be pretty hard to actually let go of your past....not in any negative kind of way for me but just physically getting rid of stuff....

And I have kept all my clothes from before I had E and was living in Broome...8 tubs of them in my wardrobe for the last 4 or so years!!! Crazy I know, as despite the size thing...board shorts, bikinis, summery slip dresses and little tops don't really go with the climate and lifestyle of a mum in Perth....and although all gorgeous they will be hopelessly out of date if they ever fit again!

So I am trying to get rid of it all....I have managed to clear about half of it and will have to have another go...as really all of it needs to go!

E has been painting this afternoon! A flower, a tractor , a dinosaur and a picture of Lucas(the cat)...I was amazed at her skills! She knows how to clean her brush in between colours and so on! I love that Montessori give young children skills and do not presume that at 3 they are too young! She pays quite a lot of attention to detail as well.
I have done no scrapping for two weeks...quite a long break for me! I am a bit lacking in energy and inspiration at the moment...so I am spending the time clearing out scrapping stuff that I have collected and will never use! and generally tidying up my studio ready for when inspiration does hits! So until then you will have to put up with boring posts!!


Though here is my layout in the latest SM Vol 8 No 11...I did it over a year ago but they took a while to actually put the 'action' gallery in the magazine! A very plain and simple layout but I do still love the photos!

Anyway hope you are all having a good week! Lissy
