OMFG

Guess where I'm going??







OK, do you give up.....














I'm going to the Scraptacular Retreat 2008!!!

I am VERY excited!! It's in July and it's held at The Country Place in the Dandenong ranges so it's going to be very very cold apparently which will be a big change from here. I'm soooooo excited. There is a big group of girls from the EB scrap threads that will be going which is the reason I am going. There's just no way I could justify spending the money otherwise, I wasn't going to go originally for just that reason but Owen said I should and I guess it's not something I've ever done before so like I always say, you should try new things!!
I will be flying by myself which is going to be a bit of a test of courage and then one of the lovely Melbourne EB girls, Tracey, is going to collect myself and another girl, Tina, from the airport and we're going to drive to the retreat which is sooo nice of her. Thanks Tracey.
On Sunday after the retreat is wrapped up I'm going to go and visit my lovely cousin Julie and stay there for the night...or maybe 2 and then fly back to Rocky.
I'm going to miss my boys though. Owen and I have only spent about 4/5 nights apart in 16 years and I've never been apart from Jack. He spent a couple of hours at my friend Kim's house one day and I missed him then. I'm sure the excitement of meeting these girls after chatting with them on-line for the last couple of years will help ease the feelings though.
It's going to be so much fun.
It's a shame that all the EB girls can't go. :-( There's a few girls I'd really love to meet that arn't going to make it like Donna, Sarah, Deb and Brenda(who I'm going to meet up with soon though) to name a few. I'm really sorry that they can't come. :-( and I do know how you girls are feeling because I had tears welling in my eyes last night thinking that there's no way I'd be able to go, I'm just thankful that I can. {{{HUGS}}} Big hugs all the way around cyber Australia for you girls. Maybe we can hook up a webcam.
