What can I say we are back again with another week that has flown on by. Here in Australia it is Tax Time which means massive amounts of paperwork, balancing of books, sending out group certificates and mayhem really. There is also the typical stuff that I do on a weekly basis like work odd hours and my week has been hell, not a single hour that has been unproductive. I don't know how many hours I have been on the road and when the end seemed near I thought I would start sorting some stuff on my desk and put some more linen (a little bit to the front of the box) in the reflex box for Judy (Judy Fabrications) because I have been collecting some stuff for her for when she visits later this year from interstate (Adelaide) I want to sort through the box too but that didn't happen. Yes it is a mess my desk it is called dump, run and roll. Stefan is in the corner, which means DD's boyfriend must of been to visit whilst I was at work, I know this because her boyfriend is jealous of Stefan. He is good company to keep in the office at times, he never complains and rarely wants anything and not bad on the eyes either. So on my desk moving away from Stefan is still a box of media passes which were quickly dumped after getting home yesterday from work. Then there were the card kits that need finishing and some other UFO's that need sorting. The next thing I know I am back on the road working, not planned that way but this is my life, following these babies around and working with them. Here is a shot of the highway, yep camera photos whilst driving, fun. When the flash goes off people all slow down because they think they have been nabbed by a speed camera, hilarious really. But hey they slow down fast and become paranoid, much safer environment to be driving in if you ask me. LOL
Now here is the reason I am on the road, these big white babies they are called broadcasting trucks and they have all the gear in them to bring TV to your screen in your house. I follow them around the state, these ones go all over Australia but I just manage Victoria where these ones are ATM. Here we are in Geelong the home of Sandy (Lonely Cards) a really beautiful part of the country with beaches and country too.
As you can see here there is a strange Stonehenge like display, this is of famous players of different sports that have played at the venue. I really like how it is lit up at night and the place is so quiet until we roll into town. Once the Tech team start setting up, well that is another story. The guys were rolling in as I was taking these shots. I didn't have time to upload them to the blog before leaving Geelong.
Now you are probably all wondering where is Yoda, well he was missing yesterday for the short few hours I was home, he was hiding under DD's bed on top of the heating vent in there and wouldn't come out. So I was holding off posting so I could get a shot of him. Well that didn't work as I ended up leaving the house. Just so you don't fret he is alright, just snotty with me for being gone so much. Can you see that 'snotty I am not going to co-operate type of face', he wont look at me and I think I took 20 shots too. He will have to get over it soon and get his cuddles as I am back on the road again tomorrow to Geelong for a few more nights. I always say it, I hope next week is better than this one. I have to go now and get some urgent baby cards created for one of my dearest friends whom is like a sister to me, she needs 3 baby cards and one 50th card male before work today for her which is 9 am.
My baby boy who is 28 today is celebrating without his mum, I am sure he can survive, Happy Birthday Michael if you are reading this. Hopefully on Sunday night late I can catch up with you and celebrate.
I hope you all have a wonderful week crafting, I will visit as many as I can, I have visited some already but I am posting late and it is a long one, so hopefully Queen Julia doesn't complain. Please leave your link number so I can return your visit. If you are wanting to see more desks then pop on over to Julia's place called the Stamping Ground and visit the world.
Hugs to all and happy crafting

Oh Eliza, Tax Time (shudder), and your long hours! I'm so sorry you haven't had a chance to balance things with a little play/down time. Hope next week is better.

Hope you're having fun with it all!

I think you've done well to get in your craft room at all, but that's life Lol! Everyone wants a bit of you and sometimes there just isn't enough to go round.
Hope you get some time to yourself over the weekend.

Hi Eliza, gosh that is a hectic schedule you have there. I can understand why Yoda is a little miffed with you lol Three cards to make before 9am, I wish I could be so productive, I would struggle to make 3 cards on any day, I faff about far too much. Hope you manage to catch up with your son for some belated birthday celebrations.My daughter was 27 on Wednesday, I can remember being her age, sigh, makes me feel old. Hope you win Yoda round with a nice snuggle too.
Hugs Lottie x
I am so late that it is now Sunday here and I am hoping you are celebrating with Michael as I type (unless timing is so different I am catching you in your PJ's).
Thanks for such a fab account! I want a Stefan too, mind you I have very little room so he would end up being stuffed in other rooms so I guess I should just ogle your guy.
Thanks for the run down on your road trip sounds as if you are mad busy and have so much to do, wish I could fly over and help out a bit. (Well I could cuddle Yoda for you, right)
You take care my friend and don't overstretch yourself.
Hugs to you all
