I just found a MUCH better one, and have already submitted it. I'll share it with anyone who wants it.

YEE-HAW!!!

Not bad, Heidi - I like it...I wish I could get a nice big stack or a picture of money raining down...how about a money tree?

Congrats on the TOPP, Heidi

Heidi - just put some in for approval, too - might take awhile!

Vici... The one waiting approval is a big stack of bills and coins. I DID find a Money Tree as well.

Hi Girls.
I have had a money tree sitting in my smilies for a while. Not sure how it will come up though but will post it.wish it was mine for real !!
Have just been grocery shopping.!!!
Must now fling them into the cupboards and then out again for coffee and Xwords with John.

OOhh as I thought, it is hard to the money.

Hey Vivi! We were wanting money for Cyn who is awaiting the big deposit today!
Say "hi" to John for us!

SAers

Hope everyone is having a great day/evening/night

I like your money tree, Viv!
Heidi - I submitted "money bags", a "money man" (dollar signs in his eyes) and "pooter money"

How you feeling Rola? How are the troops?

Feeling: awful, hurts to cough.. very chesty !!

The Troops: havent seen them yet !!

Rolanda!
Glad you are not having to take your mum out today...think you should pass on your list of "things to do" and stay down and rest today!
Here's some hot apple cider for you, dear little sis!

Wish I had a smilie for your "very chesty" comment, Rola! Don't think I could get it through approval, though! hehehe

Thanks Vici for the hot apple cider.

have to do the Grocery Shop sooner or later !!
decided sooner is better than later !!

I'm back from the Book Week 'parade'. It was wonderful! I took some photos, but I'm horrible with the camera so don't know if any of them will work out... If they do I'll post them, probably not today. The skirt, tie and jumper that I did for Ally hardly showed! Should have stopped at the cloak!

I also have to go shopping, there is only enough milk for ONE cup of coffee! Now that the parade is over I have to pull my house back together, finish the pamphlet delivery etc etc. Probably only time to buy milk on my shopping trip - darn.

Brenda - Welcome back! Hope your holiday was great, with good weather, good company, and fun things to do.

Gail - the smilies are SO cute! Wish I'd been more organised.

Mamacita - glad the stress test is over, but sorry to hear about the bruises.

Viv - I still ache afterwards, but not the next day, which is a HUGE improvement - and the scales say I've dropped a kg!!!!

Mariana - Ally is practising with a choir at the moment, but probably won't be singing with them! I know, weird. She has a solo and a character thing in carols in the park so goes to practice, but is too old to be a reindeer and too young to be in the adult choir so we're not sure what else she'll do on the night.

everybody.
I'm not awake yet.... over did EVERYTHING yesterday and I am still recovering.....
I need coffee........ BRB .... when the brain is awake

and I have to go out anyway..
to the Chemist to buy some stuff.. ie Cough Medicene for chesty coughs

Hey Suzy, well done finishing the cloak.. looking forward seeing the piccies.

Morning Bean.. I'll join in you in a cuppa - Tea

Vici.. What time will you arrive at my house ??? So I will be ready to be 'boxed' about!!

Well, as long as you're picking up medicine, Rolanda...but get back home soon and put on your pjs! If you borrow Viv's you're bound to feel better!
Hi Bean! Details, please!!!

Yes MUM !!

Viv.. can I borrow your PJ's

June - I've just been checking out your photos, very noice!!

Rolanda - would you mind picking up some milk for me while you're out? I really don't want to go...

No worries Zusy !!
1 litre or 2 litres ??

3 Rolanda! I usually buy 6 litres at a time, but I'll buy another tomorrow - low fat please.

I buy low fat as well Zusy, I usually buy 6 ltrs as well, 3 x 2ltr containers

Rolanda and Suzy - you gals just need a milk cow from Heidi!

I buy 3 litre containers because I still have my American fridge which fits gallon containers in the door. When I replace it I will probably switch to 2 litre bottles - they float around at the moment.

Heidi... yoo hoo,
can you send one of your milking cows here please

One of those special cows that gives low fat milk please Heidi...

mmm seems Trolley Boy may come with me to do the Grocery Shop..

Well sitting here is not getting any of my jobs done, though I have enjoyed the company!!

Catch you all later I hope..

This is the best I can do, girls. I THINK she's low fat. She doesn't look fat to me.

She's a beaut, Heidi!

Vici...nothing real exciting....

Started off the day with a doctors appointment at 9.30 which low and behold I was early for.
Did a little weeding when I got home ...the sunshine was irresistible....then off to my next appointment..

Went and met up with my sewing cronies and invited them all to lunch...date TBA....it will have to wait until I find the table....I'm sure it is under all those papers and washing...
Got a call from the agency and before I could think up a good reason not to work [don't think it being a nice sunny day would cut it] I committed myself.

Next came the frantic search for my work shirt and trousers....it is so long since I've worked I wasn't sure they would still fit.... found my shirt in the last place I looked...on a coat hanger in the wardrobe... but DIRTY!!!Wash, wash, dry, dry , iron, iron......is it worth it for a bit of money?? All this stress.

Luckily I knew the hospital and so I didn't get lost finding my way to the operating rooms.... I was given a swipe card [to open all the doors] and sent off to find the change rooms. WELL..... couldn't find some scrubs big enough to fit comfortably over my chest...twas like being in a straight jacket!! [just adding breast reduction to my list of things to be done....] One good thing about not being in surgical scrubs like everyone else was it labeled me loud and clear - I am NEW so don't ask me anything and expect me to know where or what it is!!

I was responsible for receiving the patients...you know...the nice nurse that gets to ask you to spell your name, do you know what is being done today, when did you last eat, any allergies, dentures...piercings or jewelry in interesting places..... Mastered checking them in and out on the computer and even managed to call the patients down from the ward in time so that none of the surgeons were held up....quite a feat with 8 or 9 operating rooms and surgeons on the go...

Was doing really well [and finally had the last body checked in] UNTIL...
went to check last patient in on the computer...subconsciously noticed a bag on my chair and tried to perch on the edge of the chair and guess what happened.....I'll give you a clue....highly polished floors and chairs on wheels that move...

YEP...and now for the floor show....that is Bean with a very red face spreadeagled all over the floor in an undignified heap. My pride and demeanor shattered I assured everyone that I was ok!!!! LOL.....not.....ROFL!!!!! Yep...can take me anywhere!!

It was suggested that I go find myself a drink....good idea....could you make mine a double.... When I returned the Incident Form was underway [to make sure everybody heard about my escapade....seriously it is for work cover/safety etc.] I was asked if I wanted to go home seeing as the surgical list was finished early.....guess what I said......

Vici...are you sorry you asked?
