Bon Jovi rocks my world. So do the two little men in my life, Zak (13) and Robert (3). I love scrapbooking and cross stitch and, in a past life, ballroom dancing.

An Update

Holy crap batman - where has the time gone? I can't believe that we are in February already. Bits and pieces been happening around here - nothing extraordinary - but I suppose its all the lil bits that make it interesting!

My bestie, Kate, and I went off to Evanescence on Thursday night. OMG... Amy Lee's vocal range is awesome - that woman can belt it out.. We had a fantastic time - the time at those concerts seems to go just so quick hey.

Zak has settled into grade three really well. There's been a bit on the news lately about Queensland adopting a *streaming* system for classes. Basically I think it means grouping kids by academic performance. I'm not sure how I feel about it - I'm sure if Zak was in the top percent of his class I'd be all for it. He's not at the bottom but I have real issues with the whole snobbery thing that goes on (just in life in general)... Anyway... I'm reserving judgement until I read more about it..

Work is back to normal - Parliament has resumed so its back to the real world.. Speaking of which - Parliament (state) this week was a disgrace... an absolute disgrace - they ought to be ashamed of themselves - both sides.

Have done bits and pieces of scrapping... doing a couple of swaps over at Scrapboxx... Sharryn your swap is a great idea! Thinking of joining in a year in review comp at the Little Scrapbook Shop too.. it looks like a great idea. Oh yeah.. and bingo is on again at Shop and Crop... lol.. cross your fingers for me!

My ebay addiction seems to have not subsided at all.. insert scared face here. Lol... I finally got my hands on the Bon Jovi 100 000 000 fans can't be wrong box set - OMG - it ROCKS!!!!

Not sure what's going on with my lil man - he's been a right turd for the last month or so!! The other day Kate noticed some boogas on the wall in the toilet.. not happy jan. Then a couple of days later Zak and Jake (Kate's boy) *slimed* the ceiling in his room... (remember slime??? i loved it when i was a kid).. then there is the issue of him trying to sneak his PSP to school EVERY DAY... so he keeps getting banned from it... I've told him if he tries it again I'm going to sell it.. But then there are the days that he is a treasure.. and you forget about the turd moments...

Anyway.. I think thats enough for the moment.. hopefully I'll be back sooner!

Shelley :)
