In the Blink of an Eye - Kirsty Campbell Digital Artistry

Another assignment down!!!

Just another few thousand to go LOL!!!!!
I got my math assignment back another big WOOT!! WOOT!! for myself not shy about blowing my own trumpet huh!!? I got High Distinction again!!!! YAY!!!! So much was put into both though, I think I would have been upset with anything less (problem of being a perfectionist over achieving person I suppose or as my baby brother likes to call me Lisa Simpson!!! Life is still very hard for me I thank uni for giving me something to occupy myself but I do have to wonder if I put so much into things like this because I use it as an avoidance tactic.  Dealing with my old life and violent past marriage still gives me anxiety attacks. But i think its time!!!! or I am telling myself its time, Marks telling me its time he has had enough and is ready to walk if I cant sort it out be brave and get it out there and deal with! The past is the past I know but when someone had put you down daily for 7 years of your life, the good stuff gets harder and harder to believe. Why is that?? Why do we find it so hard to trust and believe in the good things or maybe its just me!!!
But Fergie I got news for you big girls DO cry!!!

When she's back....

she's back with a vengeance!!!!! Thought it was time for a new banner, (gorgeous kiddies belong to me!!) and music, then couldn't remember how to get it to come up!!!! Hence the late hour of my post!! What can I say I can't sleep till I know I've completed things can be a real problem!!
ANYWAY another reason for my post just a little toot for my self or should I be honest and say a HUGE BIG WOOT! WOOT! I just got back my first uni assignment... HIGH DISTINCTION thankyou very much!!! Just a little proud of myself LOL!!!

NO I HAVEN"T DIED!!!!!

WOW!!! where did that time go???? BOY have I been bad or what!!!!!
Well what can I say no excuses just been busy!! Decided to bite the bullet and go to Uni, decided to do my whole teaching course and have my OWN class, so look out kids of the future hehe!!! Nothing new on the template front sorry!! Maybe one day soon....
Been in a bad place, as you may remember I had a bubba about 17months ago and I finally had to come to terms with the fact I had some depression issues. Being the stubborn girl I am I let it run me and my family into the ground first, I am getting better all the time and we are all doing well but please if anyone still comes here!!??? and reads this dont let it get you!!!! (\c c\ \ -McKenna's typing effort hehe!!) Well thanks for checking in if you did and if not well thats my fault. Will try to post more often than this ridiculous effort!!

COMING SOON.......

One hot mumma!!!
This is my sister in law how great does she look!!! ( Hi Janny!!!!;) )

After waiting all these years to become an aunty, by February I will have become one twice!!!
This was a little impromptu shoot we did earlier today, whilst we're waiting for our little West to come along!!!(cool name huh!!!). We've been doing some work on our house lately and my brother being a cabinet maker and quite handy has been put to good use!! We bought the kids a cubby house that had to be build, with my brother and Mark working on it its kinda turned into well.... a mansion!!! I kid you not I want to live in it (pics of that next time)

Isn't it funny how things change? Growing up I would never have believed my brother (check out his cool tats! he looks real scary but he is very sweet, man am I dead!!!) and I would be so close, I for one thinks its all about my darling sister in law. You see Janet and I hit it off from the very first time I met her at all of 15!!! and so I think my brother and I have learnt to get along and I can say I really enjoy his company!
I never had a sister but I feel Janny is as close as a sister gets and I love her all the same.

Thanks for visiting

Yep i feel like I followed Alice right down that rabbit hole into a fantasy land of fun and deliciousness!!! WOW!!! the talent!!
Sorry about the AWOL situation lately but well.... yep, no.... no excuses here!!! hehe!

On a more sad note our computer did a hard drive!!!! Lucky we have the laptop huh! BACK UP!! people BACK UP!! I have lost some stuff design stuff etc I had been working on old photos GRRRR!! but luckily most is on here except the more recent stuff that'll teach me for being lazy huh!
MY BABY GIRL IS NINE!!!!! my BIG baby girl that is!

although i guess it'll feel like a 'blink of an eye' and I'll be typing this about bubba kenna! Check out my gorgeous (dare I even say gothy?!!) girl yep it seems my baby is gonna be a goth! every item of clothing etc screamed goth the shoes, the tops (emily the strange (of course, her namesake after all hehe)) the dresses, the socks, the bags etc etc. I have to say i'm probably not the best to comment on how appropriate it is for a nine year old but damn it's soooo cute, she's like my own little goth dolly LOL!!! I've always loved those! I must admit i am very big on letting kids express themselves and find their own style and niche in life so i say enjoy it while you can! Not to mention Mark thinks it is just too gorgeous and seems to encourage her!

Totally spoilt as always
WE LOVE YOU EMMYBEAR!!!!!
Happy Birthday my darling girl, my child that taught me to be a Mummy!! You are and always will be my blessing if not for you I would never have learnt to be so strong, you made me believe in myself again!
Em's birthday is actually the ninth of the ninth!! and she was nine! this was the first birthday she didnt spend with us! People out there who know me will know Emily is from my first marriage and this year her dad's weekend just happened to be her birthday weekend. i wasn't sure how i would cope knowing he wouldn't let me speak to her and not even being able to tell her I loved her and say happy birthday on her birthday!!!! It was very much a day of heartache thank goodness my hubby now (hubby isnt that a horrid word?!) is not like the old (guess I DO learn from my mistakes huh?!) and was as always very understanding and loving even when his heart was aching for her too!! Thanks babe!
Well i guess I should sign off, will have some pics of kenna tomorrow hopefully she just turned 9 months!!! NINE!!!! WHAT!!!? where did that time go!! oh what the hay here ya go

Just another stunner i made LOL!!!

Oh yeah with the help of my stunner of a husband!

I got 2 gorgeous tops from a brand called Review from Myer totally divine, I usually get Alannah Hill clothes because Mark knows I love them so much, but they are a little pricey, so when I saw this brand I thought mmmmmMMM! and I guess he listened! (I will post some photos later it's only 9am here (the days just starting) Some Jean Paul Gaultier perfume ohhh yummy (reminds me of the first time I ever saw the Eiffel Tower, every time I smell it) A new All My Memories purse you put photos in already done, Mark let me put them in before he wrapped it guess he thought it would save time this morning hehe! The kids made me some gorgeous cards and mark as always wrote his story like message gotta love those I think I look more forward to his messages than anything else!
