Trying to Learn Something New.

To say I have had fun this morning would definitely be grossly overstating the fact. I had been wanting for ages to be able to share a little something from my sketchpad with you all for free on my blog......well what a to do for this simple minded old girl. If you have been visiting this morning you may have seen things coming and going from my blog. The up shot of this diatribe is that I think I have succeeded and you will notice my "Sketchpad Freebie" on my side bar. I would like all you lovely blogging friends to let me know if you can 
(a) go to the link (b) actually print it out (c) if you actually like it. If all 3 are possible please enjoy this little gift from me and hopefully (once I get out of therapy) there will be some more along the way.
Yesterday one of my dear friends had a girls pamper day to celebrate her birthday. We tried out all sorts of lovely creams, smellies and lotions, had bubbly and cake. Which "Sweet Birthday Girl" baked herself. Besides being a very clever cookie (sorry) she is a fabulous cake maker and decorator....this choccie marble cake was so yummy and as you can see we had already had a taste test.
Lots of laughter and catching up with friends from my old work....
"Sweet Birthday Girl" is on the left in the purple....such a gorgeous girl.
Yours truly with the gals. There was a couple of us missing but still great to catch up. Thanks Loz!
I think after the trauma of this morning I more than deserve a coffee and CHOCOLATE!!!
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday,
Blessings Michelle xxx
