smiggle!

it all started at school
one of the boys bought some cute stationery from the smiggle store...(yes i have trendy lil boys in my class)
i was intrigued
very intrigued

so i asked the kids (little experts)
apparently there is a new smiggle store in carousel
and its full of great, uber cute stationery at really good prices

i had to go and see it for myself
its awesome .... i absolutely love it...
i managed to buy some bits and pieces as prizes for the kids at school

Term 3 School Holidays!!!!

Today is the 2nd day of my school holidays and feels bloody awesome!

Such a huge relief and i feel soooo relaxed!!

What do i have planned for the holidays? A lot actually - (unfortunately!! poo) only because everything that can't be done during school time is getting squished into the 2 weeks we have off.

So the list goes a little something like this....

1. Change 2 tyres on the Jazz car - $200. I dont know how it happened, about 2-3 weeks ago i noticed that one of my tyres was very flat and looking really BAD. Like slashed tyres bad, i guess someone at school hates? scarey huh?

2. Take Bella to the Vets for an ultrasound check! 3 weeks ago Bella was on heat and we had major dog porn going on in the backyard (this was a planned pregnancy - unlike last years incident). So hopefully, crossing fingers we might have puppies agaian - YAY!!!

3. Get our new blinds installed at home! Can't wait for this because the current verticals look like SH!T - well they are about 20 years old and never been replaced. So its about time.

4. Start a mini herb garden (and maybe some weeding). Its spring here and the weather is perfect for a herb garden. So far i have lemon grass (essential for asian cooking), vietnamese mint ( i dont know what to do with these yet) and normal mint.

5. Catch up on some serious reading. Just before the holidays i ordered 50 books from Bookclub for $50!! major bargain, they are mostly children's lit books, but i'm not complaining. i find that i am reading a lot of children's books at the moment.

6. Go to swan valley for some delicious food, wine and cheese ....mmmMMMmmm... cant wait.

7. Go to school and do some work and planning for next term (YUK!)

8. Catch up with all my friends that i always neglect during school time, you know who you are :o).

9. Catch up with some blogging... hehe ... i know i am lazy...

10. Catch up on some serious shopping ... harbour town here i come! and claremont, ikea, fremantle, applecross, mount lawley... shit this list is getting long!

last but not least.. the one i hate the most ... housework...urgh...

gotta goo.... housework calls...

love.clio

ps: can someone please send a servant from indo, philippines or cambodia to Perth please... i'll treat them really nicely :o).
