Word art freebie and packing

Whooohooo.... it's the last day here, tomorrow I will be on my way !
Today it's a case of cleaning and tidying up one last time ....so Shaun has a harder job to mess things things up while I'm gone , and packing the last things into my suitcase.
It's not just me who is cleaning ... Reggie was doing the same yesterday.Bur at least he doesn't have the cat litter boxes to deal with .... they make me gasp for fresh air every time.
And packing is a tough job for a girl ,lol.... unlike Reggie who just slings a week worth of clothes into a duffel bag , for a female the mix and match syndrome has to be considered. What can I wear with that t-shirt, which shoes are best to fit with most of the stuff I'm taking? Any occasion to dress up? What am I going to wear? Luckily I'm easy in the make-up department,lol... a bit of mineral powder , lipstick or gloss,Mascara and eyeliner ...and unless I really want to lay it on thick a mineral blusher and some eyeshadow .Which happens once in a blue moon,I much prefer a natural look and not as if I have fallen into a Crayola Paintbox ! I'm taking one set of different jewellery to wear for our night out , not half the contents of my jewellery box,lol. Weight limit is 50 pounds or 23 kg for the suitcase, plus hand luggage of a x of 13 pounds or 6 kg.
So later I will have to weigh the the suitcase to make sure I'm not over the allowed weight...or I will have to pay on top.
My e-cig will be so practical during the journey....6 hours on the bus to London and then 9 hours flight.I'm grateful for my refillable electronic cigarette and spare batteries ! This little baby cuts my smoking in half of what I used to.

Oh yes, Sam has a new favourite place to sleep. I bought a rug to go under my desk chair , as the wheels kept doing damage to the floor ...and he likes it a lot. His new favourite place is at my feet ,lol.

Unlike Dusty , who enjoys spreading out on the sofa with Misty.Comfortable???

                So currently the floor is taken up with suit case and rucksack , waiting for the last bits to go in.... and occasionally the cats trying to make a bed on top of my clothing.... oh no, you are so not coming with me,lol.

Reggie has two more days to work , today and tomorrow, so he went to bed early last night as he has to get up at 4.30am, we stopped talking around 8pm.
Kyra, I deposited all my plants downstairs, so Shaun won't have to go into my room upstairs to water them-he would forget anyway.... watering plants is not something 20 year old young men are interested in.

But just in case ...there is a reminder in the kitchen where he WILL GO to make coffee,lol.

Enough of that now though...here is the Word art freebie.

There will be more to come soon, so keep popping in.I'm not exactly sure when I manage to get more stuff uploaded , but it will come.
Otherwise.... I spent the last days reading a lot , I am addicted to "50 Shades of Grey" ..I finished the first book and ordered the 2 next ones with the thought in mind to have something to read during the long flight across to Charlotte. They arrived yesterday. How am I supposed to resist this? I started , then put book 2 down , really trying hard not to touch it.....and I failed miserably ! Ah well, guess there is always book 3 ,lol.

Not something for closed minded people , -it's erotica.These books go into BDSM, but also with a lot a lot of humour and I think the characters are well thought out.I have to admit I can certainly often identify with Ana. A lot of times while reading I keep thinking "OMG, this is so me !" ... they are the kind of books that keep you hooked and you don't want to put the book down until you have finished it. I know I am not the only one thinking that way, I have seen comments from other friends saying exactly the same. And from what I hear a movie is planned ...http://www.buzzsugar.com/50-Shades-Grey-Movie-Cast-23286731?slide=24
Personally I would love to see Ian Somerhalder or Alexander Skarsgard in the role of Christian Grey, Chris Hemsworth would be another possibility in my eyes to fit the role well.Rofl, so if you want to explore your darker side go ahead and read the books ;)
I also designed another picture after reading the first book....here's another Snowraven creation...and I thought the quote fits rather well.

Snowy style... the bargain hunter was lucky again... a black dress for £12.00 and earrings for £3.49
I never understand woman who spend tons of money on fashion. They are copying a media fashion image but they don't have their own style and are not being themselves. Seriously...have you seen the latest stuff around? Can you imagine me in bright neon colours , flashback of the 80ies? I think not ! I sometimes wonder about the fashion disasters some woman wear ... Walmart springs to mind,lol. These woman should bear in mind that simplicity and covering a bit more than they show creates a better effect.
PS:same goes for make-up... looking like you have fallen into a box of Crayolas doesn't earn brownie points !

20 days left until I leave here for Gatwick and my trip across to Reggie. Can you say I'm getting excited? You bet,lol.We had gorgeous weather here and I even had a little bit of a sunburn on my chest and shoulders. The highest SPF I can get here in the shops is 30, Ivy told me she uses a SPF 75.....I so have to put a higher one on my shopping list when I'm across there.I really don't fancy being fried , and it will take some days to get used to the higher temperatures anyway.I also spoke to one of our guys who spent time in South Carolina, he advised me to go for a high factor sunscreen...he said "I never had such a bad sun burn , us people from over here in UK are just not used to that strength" ....guess what's on top of my list to get,lol... I love sun , but I don't want to get fried :)
Anyway, I have rambled enough for today and shared "Snowy's wisdom".For me it's nap time and night shift recovery today . Till next post -Hugs Snowy

Part 2 of Another Journey

Grrrr.............. Mediafire won't let me upload , five tries, two days in a row and I'm giving up ! Then I tried 4shared.And that site is p***ing me off as well as the uploads are painfully slow. I think I have to search for a new file sharing site, seems the two I used to upload my stuff to have gone pants!Now I'm just trying Sendspace. Let's see.............
So far I have not had time to design anything more. Early shifts always kill me...not literally , but you know what I mean.I just don't have much energy left when I get up at 4.30am.I'm much more a night person! Although the weather yesterday and today has been fantastic with temperatures in the 70ies and sunshine. Don't laugh...I was waiting for Reggie to be home from work Monday night to chat on skype......wake up and see a message from him telling me he was home which was sent almost an hour earlier ...yup, I had fallen asleep. Sign of old age or what,lol?He was still awake when I contacted him, but with both of us tired we soon went to sleep.
On the way home from work I could not resist to pick a few flowers by the roadside...the colour is just fantastic!

Although I did play a little .... I made new pictures for our Facebook page.

I Iike playing and blending pictures together.Soon I won't need to anymore... I'll make sure I'll have enough to last me until December ;)

Oh, the story of new contact lenses.... 2 appointments and they want me to try out a new lens for my right eye, a torric lens. After wearing it for 3 hours I had enough , it was so uncomfortable! Tried another one yesterday...same result. They can keep their torric lens , I want the same normal ones I had before. And I shall have ! They lost a customer because I ordered them via the Internet...f*ck me about and you will loose . And I paid a lot less as well. But no, they said the torric lense is better and more comfortable for me ... hah? I think I know myself what is better and more comfortable.I have another appointment on the 6th where they want to check up how I got on and hoping that I will order them ... dream on , by that date my Internet order will be already here,lol. I will cancel that appointment. 
Hey , my files have already uploaded- I'm pleasantly surprised about the speed
So here are the links for the second part-have fun with them :)

Freebie part 1

Hi all,
Yesterday was busy ! First another contact lens appointment at the Opticians where they gave me new lenses to try out, paid bills , picked up my Coach tickets for travel to and from the Airport, then the shop where I normally go to didn't have the Mineral Powder I use -so on to the next one, where I didn't have any luck either. I was finally lucky at the third store.
Then home, got some work done and finally got out my sewing machine. 3 cats are not good for any sofa cushions -they do like to dig their claws in , so I wanted to quickly stitch up a new pair.... oh no! Machine not playing and finally the needle broke off. Damn ! I just could not be bothered to carry on after that, so I went on FB after going up to my room and getting comfy on the bed, chatted via  pm a little with Reggie's sister, then the man himself was home from work and I was laughing about stories of pranks they used to play in the past.Jeeeze...compared to what that lot has been up to in the good 'ole days I am an angel and have led a very sheltered life! No , I'm not going into details otherwise I have parents complaining to me for giving their youths bad ideas if they happen to come across this post,lol. I leave it to Reggie to pass that sort of stuff on if he wants to corrupt children :)
This morning I tackled the sewing machine... took it apart , gave it a good clean , a new needle in ...and voila , the thing works again. So I finally finished the cushion covers. It's an antique white colour with a similar pattern as the sofa, quite simple.

Kyra wrote on one of my last posts : Good idea to catch a good night sleep in the airporthotel. The travel is already long enough! Can you imagine it's already so near? Must be a real great feeling!
Have a lovely weekend
Hugs Kyra
Yes, it was the best and safest way to get a room at the Airport, I could have slept at a friend's, but the thought of having to change trains and on the underground at six in the morning put me off the idea.I have been counting the days (still am !) and I'm glad the time is going so quick. As for a great feeling ... the greatest feeling will be be when I'm finally there.
But I have uploaded the first part of this new kit as freebie for you. I'm very slowly getting back into designing in the moment. Do you think I can find how to put in onto the freebie page since Blogger changed everything? Nope ... so TFS , it's going on here !
Have fun with the first part , I will still be adding more to this ...
