OOOOOOO - I wanna do it.
I've been buying and colecting things for a few months now. I can't wait until I finish college for the summer and get all my assignments done - then I'm doing it Grin.

I have a feeling that DS has bought me a pile of lidded storage boxes - to put everything into - for mothers day...is it normal to get exited about the idea of being able to go through everything and sort them out ready for use, or am I one sick woman Grin.

at least you have a dining table - we have the trusted living room floor!!! (Our army house doesnt have space for a dining table even though its a 3 bed house - wrok that out!)

Im still tempted to move Becky into Jessi's room and turn her room into my craft room!!!

Now very jealous Envy. Since we moved I don't have room for a space of my own. I had an enormous attic at the old house - here the rooms are too small to be used for anything other than the usual furniture. I've even got my very small, purpose built desk in the only available corner of the kitchen Envy

need one of them!

Becky has had her own room from day 1.... we even got the army to move us to a 3 bed so she could.... but surely now she sleeps through the night she is safe to go in with her sister?!

Surely them sleeping together from the start will make them love each other even mroe?!

(girls are 20 months and 5 months now!)


I NEED A CRAFT ROOM - I NEED TO STOP SITTING ON THE FLOOR GETTING A NUMB BUM!

yup, your need for a craft room is farsuperior to their need for their own rooms
so you go stick her cot in her sisters room giirl.
and make me more jealous in the process.
