First post ... slightly daunting but here goes... :-)

Today is a beautiful, sunny, almost winter Friday and our first "home day" of a busy week. Tomorrow I'm looking forward to taking part in the Relay for Life, raising money for the Queensland Cancer Council. So...this morning Little Miss and I got stuck in to making a "mailbox" for our team area so that other team are able to "post" details of their fund raising events they may be holding whilst the relay is under way.

Our team name is "Grannies and Grandads" which is quite fitting as our team is mostly made up of people from our workplace - a financial planning business which specialises in strategies for retirees and it is also quite fitting for me personally as I will be remembering my grandparents who did not survive their battles with cancer.

So...I was given a bit of creative licence to do whatever I liked to make this "mailbox" and chose to go all out granny on it!! Bring on the florals and doilies I say!! :-) So with much 'help' from my Little Miss  this is what we came up with -

So...what do you reckon? Granny enough for you? lol

I think so... :-)

And in other news... I've sorta kinda been wanting (ok, I'm absolutely desparate for) an iPhone/iPad. Have been loving seeing how other people can use things like instagram and get really amazing filters on their photos...but...I'm trying to just be happy with what I've got so...

I did a little searching online....

And found a new LOVE..../http://pixlr.com/o-matic/

Both free and fun I am loving what this site can do with photos and then I can just save them on my computer and use them as I like :-)

Simple filters can really make your photos look so crisp and clear...

So many to choose from... creative heaven!!

Loving it and looking forward to using it a LOT from now on :-)

Well that's me for today...

Off to rest up for tomorrow...walking on and off from 3pm till 9am Sunday morning...will give me a kickstart to one of my many resolutions - exercise more!!

But more on resolutions another time...

Stay smiling
