My life is sooo disorganised. I have a squillion and one things I COULD do, but end up achieving nothing.

I could -

Paint up the two new picture book ideas I have (if a little daunting)
Do some housework (yeah right)
Go up and work at the allotment (tempting)
Work on my new card ranges


Ugh, I think I'll go up allotment...bye for now!

I've been having serious blog guilt, I haven't posted anything for ages...
Time to catch up...

Today I went up the allotment and while Nick was doing something with my beans, he accidently disturbed a nest of little mice! Mum ran off too quick to catch her, and the babies all started scurrying off in different directions! I collected all the babies together and we made a little nest for them and covered tham up again. I hope mum comes back! They were making enough squeaking noises! I wanted to bring them home but Nick wouldn't let me :0(
