Back to school

Well, after 8 weeks of bliss, life has gone back to normal again. Why?? School!!! No more lazy mornings, drinking coffee and watching Homes Under the Hammer (sorry, but I LOVE that programme!), no more impromptu midweek trips to the caravan, no more wine with Tuesdays tea (if we were at the caravan then, it just FELT like a weekend!), no more scrapbooking in the afternoons or tootling along the country lanes around Alne on my new bike. No! Who needs a life like that when you can get up at 6.30, argue with your daughter because 11.30 is a better time for her (!), spend your day in school and have to eat a school dinner (where I just found out the chicken comes from Taiwan, yeuch!), then come home and race round shopping, cleaning, helping with homework and making tea before collapsing into a heap at 8.30 and wondering how soon you can go to bed?
Oh well, it'll soon be half term...
On a brighter note, while I had a life in summer, I did manage to complete my scrapbook pages for June and July. Here they are..

I like the way you can scrap a whole month at a time like this. I think I might plan to do next year like that. What size of pages - is it 12x12? and would you do it again?

Yes Juliet, the pages are 12 x 12". I've loved doing it, but if I did one again, I wouldn't bother with the envelope page, and would maybe do 1 big LO and just one side of the divided photo page, so each divided page would last 2 months. Still, it will be a great reminder of the year (although if I don't hurry up and do August I'll have forgotten what happened before I can scrap it!!)
