as you can see the paper is still on the sofa! Things started to go pear shaped when the bed got moved to paint, and we discovered after many years that it looked and fitted better in the new spot than the old! This meant that the furniture we were going to have didn't fit, so back to the drawing board. But, after measuring this and that, moving this and that, and moving this and that back, I think we've solved it! (fingers crossed and all that). Now all we need to do now is to sell some!
Anyway, my desk on WOYWW
I did manage two cards yesterday made with my new stamps, and I was planning a third which I'm sure Julia will notice. The card with black bits on is one that went wrong - slim cards will not take triple embossed panels. The ink pads were left out in frustration because I was trying to stamp on acetate. The stazon pad decided that I needed a new one! The memento and archival wouldn't dry and the acetate wasn't heatproof.
Two other annoying things happened yesterday, one I had a visit from a Talk Talk representative trying to get me to sign a contact with them, but I'm with Tiscali (who are now Talk Talk) so I was a little confused!! On top of that she wanted me to pay a connection fee of (only she said) £29.99, but I aready connected to them aren't I? And, the freebie router, I don't want either because I have just bought one - she was very annoyed when Dave said NO, and said she had wasted her time on us....!!! pardon !!! Whose time? I hadn't asked her to knock on my door, mind you if she had come today she wouldn't have had to knock - there's no door, it's on the drive.
The other thing was a email I received from supposedly the Inland Revenue saying I had a tax refund due of £988. 46 - great news, I just needed to fill in a claim form with my details! Think this is SPAM! Apparently it been on the tele and radio - so I thought I warn you.
I'm sure things will improve as the day goes on.....

Hi Ikki
Just watch that tax return dont give any bank details there is a lot of scams on the internet at the minute.
Sounds like a lot going on round yours, it always happens in three's.
Desk looking very tidy and organised.

Oh what day! Strangely enough I had an email telling me someone had deposited £7500 into my bank account and could I log in to verify, SPAM! I did feel better today when I went to the cash point at work someone had left their receipt and as I removed it I had a nosey as you do and on first glance thought lucky thing £45,750 balance then spotted the minus showing it was their overdraft ouch!! Hugs Pam

Gosh - I bet you're really cold today - i am with the doors and windows on... Hope things are on the up and up soon.
Sending you big hugs!!!

Ah you've had one of THOSE days, well things can only get better now cant they!
Am sure once all your decorating is done you'll be a much happier bunnie, and sometimes a break from the craftyness can put things back into perspective, but dont stay away too long.
Ugh what a yukky day, hope they get everything sorted soon with the doors and the heating. I hate rude, ignorant people and would have trapped her in a corner and given her a piece of my mind! Wishing you a better week.
hugs
Brenda
