Things have been crazily busy this week, finally starting to feel on top of it though. House hunting really got too much for me on Tuesday, been through the entire spectrum of emotions it's possible to experience & back again. From being excited at the prospect of my own place to the despair at not knowing if I can afford to move out. I still think I want to make the move as I feel the time is right, but I've also realised that taking things slowly is the best approach, it'll definitely help ease the strain & feelings of panic if nothing else.
So that explains my absence from blog land and the reason I'm so behind with updates on my France album. Just counted & I have 14 layouts to share including a few doubles. Don't like doing marathon posts with lots of photos as blogger tends to go a bit weird with the layout & adds in lots of extra spaces. Hopefully I'll be able to do a few shorter posts each day until I've caught up.
The cycling layout in the post below is the last in a total of 5 layouts for the 10th June so I thought it would make sense to share the first 4 in this post. The little layouts are in a 5x7 protector which is a great size to highlight a single photo or use as a jornalilng page. As I know the order of the pages in this album won't change, I am able to use both sides of a sheet of card or patterned paper.
Our first Friday in France was quite a disappointment for Dad. He's an architect and likes to read Roman fiction novels about gladiators & battles (I got him this book for Father's Day) so it was no surprise he was interested in seeing the ancient ruins around Frejus. I felt really sorry for him when we found there wasn't much to see.
The evening was better. We went to Luna Parc after a walk along to St Raphelle. Usually Dad & I go on lots of rides together at theme parks. My Mum doesn't like rides but she enjoys the atmoshere so doesn't mind waiting. Unfortunately I think I am getting more like her. Although I'm not afraid of heights & going upside down I seem to suffer from motion sickness now. Two rides seemed to be enough to make me queasy for the rest of the evening :(
