WOYWW 179....nothing to see here....

....move along!

Oh?  You want to see my desk for WOYWW??

Oh, ok then!

As you can see, a right royal mess!

And here is the double layout that is lurking on here, waiting to be put in the album.  My one and only offering of scrapbooking from the crop on Saturday.  Granted I didn't get there until lunchtime, but Mr Mojo had left the building before I arrived.  I'd been meaning to scrap this for months, so it finally got done!  And the layout is of a truly momentous occasion - the day Lil Miss B left primary school, with the 3rd Yorkshire Regiment drumming the leavers out of school... I'm so glad I got to see it!

Nothing else for you today, so run along now....or head back to Julia's for the linky list and the deets about why I'm baring my desk to you today!

Ha!  Short and sweet, bet you weren't expecting THAT!

WOYWW 167 - skin o' me teeth....

Woohooo!!! Happy WOYWW to y'all.... it's Wednesday again and time for more desk hopping mayhem courtesy of the delightful Mrs D...  If you think I've gone nuts and don't have a clue what I'm on about, visit here for all the info and Mr Linky if you want to join in.

Why "skin o' me teeth"? Because I *just* managed to visit everyone who visited me.  LOL.

So here we go again.

My desk?  Voilà!

Not a lot to see really.  The latest sketch from Sketch Saturday which I fancy having a go at this week, plus supplies.

However, I figured I should show what I did at the crop on Saturday, and thanks to Julia showing my ugly mug on her blog this week, and said pic showing me holding a layout involving her, I realised courtesy of BJ that I'd not actually blogged said layout when I did it.  Which was back in May.  And that was when said photo on said layout was said... lol.... taken I mean!  Heheheh.

So, four - yes FOUR - weeks' worth of Project Life, plus a double layout from two years ago (long awaited that one!) from the crop.

And the layout with LLJ and Julia.

WOYWW 153 - some semblance of normality

And we're at it again - welcome back to WOYWW!  For all the deets, head to Julia's web residence here and hop on the WOYWW train.  T'is indeed addictive.

Last week though, I ducked out.  I was railroaded by a snotty grotty cold that actually knocked me off my feet for 24 hours.  I stayed home from work last Weds, and indeed, it's a mark of how poorly I was because I didn't even sneak a peak at WOYWW let alone post my own desk up.  Well, couldn't have you all visiting me and catching my cold now, could we? LOL

This week my desk is chaotic.  I went to the crop on Saturday, but only managed to not quite finish what I'd started the previous month!  Mr Mojo wasn't up to playing nicely with friends, so I fiddled and faddled, and faffed.  And now the double layout is at home for finishing, as I didn't have the letters I needed for a title.  They're done now, but that's how my desk will look this Wednesday because I'm too tired to tidy up tonight.  In fact, Mr B is more tired as he took himself to bed at 10pm, and as I type this he is snoring softly on the bed, not having even undressed or climbed in!  Awww.  No, I'm not taking a photo because he does need a little dignity, even for him!

As some of you will have read, we made some art dolls for Julia as a WOYWW 156 gift - I won't post my pics up yet as I'll let her have the fun of sharing them in closer detail with y'all.... And I think this is a lovely picture of her looking delighted, regardless of what awful photos she thinks I took!

Till next week!  See you in a comments box near you....

WOYWW 149 - the staycation one...

Well, you'd think with a few days off I'd have made it round everybody's blogs this week, wouldn't you?  Must try harder!  I didn't even make it around everyone who visited me (hangs head in shame), so please do accept my apologies, and expect a visit very shortly!

This week we have a busy desk - I've been making something I promised to do for a friend years ago, and as it's her birthday on Thursday I felt moved to make something for the occasion.  Thus you see the B box.  Don't ask.  It's a long, convoluted and somewhat obscure story (I'll tell you later Doone) and more than a little odd...

Crop this week saw me produce three layouts, of which I only managed to finish...none.   All three have had to have something added, whether it was a simple date, or a better title...or...well, number three isn't quite done yet and I wouldn't dare to show it on here anyway for fear that Mrs D would have my guts for garters...

Oh yes.  The reason I'm rambling on about my desk?  WOYWW of course!  For those that don't know - it's a weekly hop round a few of the desks in the world that are baring all.  Join in here if you dare!  I have a lovely badge courtesy of Ms Julia which I have epically failed to photograph this week.....DOH!

WOYWW 148 - back to normality!

Welcome  back to WOYWW - the Wednesday wander through the realms of the neat, the not so neat, and the downright untidy! 

My desk this week is back to its usual untidy state - what you witness below is the aftermath of an "ohmyGodit'sKaren'sbirthdayonFriday" and "Ihaven'tmadeheracardanditneedstogointotheposttomorrow" session.  We've all had one of those, I'm sure!

Close up of the card (Karen doesn't do PCs full stop, let alone bloghop!) - image is one of the Li'l Grumpies by Smeared Ink.  I love them.  They're so downright....grumpy.  With phrases like "suck it up" and "bite me", could they be anything else?  I made my own insert - it reads "live a little, I dare ya".  As a cancer survivor, Karen will appreciate the sentiment, and her rock chick heart will love the Grumpie.  Hehehe.



A swift glance behind us on the bed reveals the death-throes of a prepping-for-a-crop flurry.  Yup, crop this month is on Saturday, and having almost literally bumped into Laura (airingcupboardstamping) in Salisbury BHS last Sat, I said I'd go, so I'm going.  Wish me luck in my prepping!

See you somewhere in a comments box near you - after the Blogger issues this week, I didn't managed to get round many folks!

WOYWW 122

Time for the weekly WOYWW - this one is a little hurried as I'm at work! 

Quick pics today to show that nothing has changed - the desk is still piled pretty high but that's normal around here for the moment.  It wasn't helped by having lots of visitors over the weekend (not all of them expected!) as well as going to a crop (more on that in a mo).

Anyway, the crop was successful - I managed to do these layouts (much to Lil Miss B's disgust!).  The Easter LO was a lucky hit - I'd had this TLC page kit for YONKS, never expecting to be able to use it and I'd forgotten about it.  Then came these pics and the colours match perfectly. 

Julia asked me when I last did a layout - I worked out it was 2007, and so far I've done 11 in total, including the 4 this weekend.  As Julia pointed out, any average is better than none!!!
