Decisions...decisions

Hi folks...it's decision time...starting off with which adventurous pastime we're going to embark on today with the grandkiddies...it's all down to our ever changeable weather...crikey it's definitely been in can't make up it's mind mode...the silly to venture out without a rain jacket kind of weather and the Met Office aren't much help either so perhaps we'll just wait and see what the sky looks like when we peel back the bedroom curtains.
The Retreat Kits are done and dusted but not without a bit of drama I have to say...you know me it wouldn't be half as much fun without DRAMA in some shape or form.
I came upon these glass tiles whilst having a clear out a few weeks ago...bought for a "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" workshop and never used....boxes and boxes off them and I was overcome by one of those lightbulb moments...perfect for one of The Retreat Projects BUT and there's always a BUT...with 25 tiles in a box...you would have thought it would be sufficient to put one label on the box...OH NO...each tile had it's own very sticky label and you know where I'm going with this...each little blighter was an absolute devil to remove. Thank the Lord for Sticky Stuff Remover is all I can say and after being buffed to sparkly squeaky clean perfection...a sneaky peek of what caused all the consternation...
But I've gone way off tangent as usual...I have even more important decisions to make...after working my socks off last week...surprise...surprise...I'm way ahead of the game...up to date with all the work stuff and that means as of bright and early Monday morning I'm going to be in play mode BUT where to start...do I kick off with the untouched August Card Kit from Simons Says Stamp...
before the September Kit pops through the letterbox in a few days time or do I go for a day of happy die-cutting with some gorgeous newbies from Tim Holtz or have fun stamping and die-cutting with gorgeous Christmas goodies from my lovely buddy Paula...
or will it be the pile of Penny Blacks waiting to be inked...which reminds me there's also a pile of ironing which needs attention...a mirror that needs sanding down and waxed not to mention this month's tag for "12 Tags of 2013"...crikey I need a week or two to play and no doubt me being me I'll need the next few days to come to a decision...oh to be decisive instead of my usual faffing around "can't make up my mind" scenario...there will be much pondering and many many cuppas and as sure as night follows day I'll probably end up going off on a completely different weird and wonderful tangent but one thing's certain...I'll see you all tomorrow to share some Fiskars Fuse makes.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend whatever the weather
