More scrapping...

I was worried it was too many photos to all go into one post, so here's the second one...

Some layouts for an 8 x 8 album I'm doing:

 

 

 

 

  

 

There are some pages to go in the middle that aren't yet done - I didn't have the photos printed, so they may happen tomorrow...

For my scrapping friends...

Hi all,

I've been promising for a while that I'll get up photos of some of the scrapping stuff that I've purchased - as well as the work I've been doing with it.  So, here goes...

This was the first layout I did, when I found some scrapping stuff - before I'd printed any photos:

Here are some of the goodies I've brought:

 

 

And some of the layouts I've done for an 12 x 12 album:

 

  

 

Swedish words...

Sorry, I've been awfully slack in my postings - combination of spending too much time on a computer at work (and not wanting to when I get home), finding scrapbooking supplies that I've been playing with at the weekends (and yes, to everyone I've promised - I will get around to putting up photos), and generally feeling a bit unwell and so so tired...

The last few days (since the clocks have been set back to non-daylight saving time) it's been dark, and I mean night time dark, dark at 4.30 in the afternoon - it's just not right, and it's messing with the body clocks on all the Aussies!

But anyway, here I am.  I thought I'd give a run down on some of the Swedish words that we've learned since we've been here...
 

Swedish	Pronounciation	English
Hej hej	Hey hey	Hi
Hej då	Hey doh	Bye
Ja	Ya	Yes
Nej	Neigh	No
Tack	As it’s written	Thanks (don't say it with an 's' on the end though - that means dog!!)
Tack sä mycket	As it’s written	Thanks so much
Ushekta	As it’s writen	Excuse me
Bra	Like the underwear	Good (most guys I know would say it’s what’s in the bra that’s good, but anyway...)
Slut	Sloot	Finish/end
Lax	As it’s written	Salmon
Fiska	As it’s written	Fish
Biff	As it’s written	Beef
Kyckling	Shickling	Chicken
Fars	Farsh	Mince
Kista	Sheesta	It’s a location – where we work

This is a bit about how my train trip looks on the way home from work:  We get on at Kista (Sheesta) where we work and catch the train to Fred (Fridhemsplan) where we change lines - Fred is the station straight after Start Shaggin' (Stadshagen - actually pronounced Stads-hagen), then catch toward 'home'.  We stay near a station called Odenplan (Oh-den-plaan) I practice saying with the train announcement quite often - it gets me some weird looks, but hey - I'm the chick who sings and dances in the supermarket aisles - I've had weird looks before!

Well, I guess that's about all I can go on about for tonight - thanks for reading along!
