Woohoo Thursday - A day off for me this week :)

Wow, I had the bestest fun training at my new job this week! And I even got to scrap at the shop, isn't that just the most perfect job!!

I did 'feel' the full day of work though, and Katie hasn't been handling it too well, but I'm sure she will get used to it and is just LOVING having me at home today, total performance going on here with her, telling me ALL about this weird kiddie program she seems to watch at my Mum's haha.

I'm back to work on Monday and then Wednesday next week, so am going to enjoy my break :)

On some yucky news. On the way to work a truck spit out a stone onto my windscreen DOH!!! So I have to use one day's pay to get the windscreen fixed and have to hand around at home from 10-1 this morning to wait for them to turn up DOH!
