Life of a Web-WAHM...

I'm a single mum with 3 kids and I work online full-time, from my kitchen...drinking half-cold tea and burning copious amounts of toast while I multi-task.

I started Card Making World 3 years ago when life hit a bad patch, and because I needed to make money but also have max flexibility. So, to the amusement of some, I turned to the internet...and I'm still here and still loving it - the internet has now become MY hobby! :-)

We all know how many gorgeous goodies there are out there, it must be pretty daunting to know what you need and what can wait. So, when someone says they want to get into card making but don't know w…

NOT HAPPY - Deleted Kids Photos :-(

After tonight's scrapbooking lesson I thought I'd go dig out some pics to have a go with.

Opened up Picasa...pics not there.

I re-organised all my 'family' pics last month...or so I thought - forgetting that Picasa only 'virtually' organises stuff. So, I probably deleted my pics thinking I'd moved them to my new folder!

Then, being a good girl, I cleaned up my PC ...so I can't even restore them from the Recycle Bin because that got emptied as part of the cleanup. I have an online backup thing… Continue

Been at this nearly all day and MUST get to bed.

Enjoy all... :-)
