Poor Caity, a sale, and some scrapping news.

Do you like my new look blog? I decided it was time for a bit of a face lift. The Banner is from Laura Deacitis's 'Bloggie Banners' (created by Nikki Beaudreau)from Sweet Shop design. Isn't it gorgeous?? Well, I think it is!! LOL!

Poor Caity. So this is how is started. Yesterday morning, I'm sitting here at my computer, after just spending the last hour and a half laughing myself silly (it was supposed to be a 'staff meeting for the DSO designers', but what hope is there of anything satying serious, when you have Kim and Kristine there?...LOL) when Caitlin comes out to me and says "Muuuuuum, (can you hear the whine there?) I just bumped my head." Now first let me say this, for some reason, my kids think that they need to tell me every single, little, tiny, incy, insignificant thing that happens to them all ( and let me remind you, that with 5 of them, it can sometimes seem never ending). So I say, "It'll be OK, just give it a rub" and proceed to give the back area of her head to which she was pointing, a rather vigourus rub. She heads off back down the hall, looking rather deflated at my lack of enthusiam, when all of a sudden I hear this blood curdly scream. "OMG, who's done what now" I shout. Caitlin appears in the doorway again, this time with blood all over her hand. "Look what's coming out of my heeeeead!!" It appears that indeed, she has bumped her head, and infact it probably was a 'real' bump this time. Great. So now I have guilt about the fact that I just dismissed her so easily, when she is trying to tell me she is hurt! It turns out that it is rather a small cut in her head, when she smacked it on the corner of her desk as she was trying to make her bed, but heads bleed alot and it freaked her out a little, just a little!
Lessons learnt from this little episode:
1. Perhaps pay a little more attention when your kids are trying to tell you something.
2. Buy soft corner protector thingy's for the corner of the desk.

Just in case you are wondering, she is fine this morning, and very proudly tells/ shows anyone she can about 'spliting her head open' LOL
