Hey all it is the Festive season all kind of crazy shopping and just all round happiness and lots of splurging going on. I hope most of these folks are saving some bonus money for 2017 we need to be prepared.

So let me start my daughter started her first temp job this week. Alghamdullilah. She is super chuffed to be earning some moola finally LOL she says this free babysitting of her siblings is not on hahaha. Tough luck if your the Eldest it is your JOB for life to care for your siblings no like Seriously it's a Muslim , Coloured thing like really...

Ok so other than that i am gonna be at work this entire December until next year when every one comes back all refreshed from their December holidays and all tanned and ready to face the year of 2017 .And i'm going to be like the little train that just has to keep on keeping on even though i'm so exhausted i can't wake up for work in the mornings and i have an almost 2 year old who cries his heart out when he wakes because he knows his mommy's going to leave him again to go to work UUURRGHHH Adulting SUCKS. Yes i know there is no such word as Adulting but it is working for me.

Other than that my WONDERFUL husband just had 12sqm of paving blocks delivered at our home which he hopes will be laid this weekend and what weekend is it. Yip it is Christmas weekend DING DING DING!! I have no idea where he intends to find someone to do it but hey he managed to tile our house once during an Easter weekend so maybe he can make some magic. Me i just go with the flow i can't stress myself over things like that. What will be will be.

Oh and wait there is more Rayyaan won a R1000 +Baskin Robbins  voucher via @goodhopefm for a Happy dance i uploaded on twitter. We are still waiting for our Prize but hey we will Sabr baby just paid for his 2nd Birthday ice cream cake with his winnings.

It's been too long

ASLM Wow it's been a while since i popped in here. It's the end of another year and since my last blog post we had another addition to our family and his turning 2 in January. This year as with many of past years has been an extremely difficult year i was broken to piece and i lifted myself out of those pieces and just rebuilt myself stronger than before. I take immense comfort knowing that the Almighty gives these trails to his strongest soldiers his ultimate plan is that one stays close to the Almighty and depend on the Almighty alone. I have asked myself many times why are all these things always happening to me? Then i realized i am truly Blessed i am being shaped and molded to become a better Muslim. I have not always been this eager to learn about my religion (ISLAM) However i am now older I've made mistakes and i have learnt from them. My ultimate wish is to just be a Better Muslim -Mother, Wife, Colleague, and self. even though our Islamic new year has passed already my message going into 2017 is a message of SHUKR (Thanks). Thank you for the Good, Thank you for the bad, Thank you for my kids, Thank you for my Husband,Thank you for my Family, and Friends.Thank you for my Health and for the Knowledge that i gain daily that makes me love ISLAM more and more. My journey is taking one day at a time to become a better Muslim and to leave children behind who will love each other as true Muslim's even when i am no longer here.

WALSM from Fuzzy
P.S just a quickpage i made from Rayyaan's 1st birthday i discovered quick pages and i have been digiscrapping away *my happy place*

So four months later and alot has changed

So after my news of a new job and all that .I now have to break the news that i'm no longer working yip the job lasted me all of 6 weeks. Turned out my ex bosses where not so good after all. They turned out to be rotten scoundrels. I've been a sahm for the past few months and just started a VERY jnr temp job close to home like less than 10 mins away from home. Hubby thinks I'm crazy to work.He wants me to stay at home longer unfortunately i needed to do something to keep me sane. The kids sure loved having me at home and i loved being with them too i think we need that as mom to take a break from work and just enjoy our kids. However in today's life we cannot afford such luxuries. Unless your like me who happened to be unemployed and makes the most of the situation.

What can i say ?? I miss scrapping gosh i never thought not scrapping with make me feel so so like i'm losing out on capturing the kids moments. And also i don't have a computer at home any more i'm hoping the temp job last long enough for me to save up to buy one. Other than that all is good My shuttle co is going well i don't make any money from it YET. But so far i've got 3 contract drivers and they where all unemployed. So i did my bit for the community i think. And i'm desperate to start marketing it but i need my puter and internet access so i'll get there. As long as we going. I will have to say good bye now lots of work to do here. Chat soon hopefully i'll have more positive things happening the next time i blog oh and some digipages too ........

Mid year and our Month of Ramadaan is approaching

So what's new with me . I took the job i started on the 1st of July i'm the new sales and marketing manager for teh comapny i'm working for. It feels great to have made the change.I have wondewrfull bosses and i knwo ti was the right thing to do.I'm learnign so much and i'm very very happy here.I dont; work weekends and if i do i work from home. And i'm driving into work every day. But i'm writing my drivers test on saturday morning so send me lots and lots of karma please. I've also got a horribel rash which i know is me stressing abotu the test so i/''m hoping once sat is over i'll have no mroe rash.The kids are all ok they have the odd cold and coughs you know the normal winter sniffles. We haven't had a lot of rain like we normally do but i suppose the month of august will bring the bulk of rain for us.Also we start fasting next month and we can't wait this time it's in winter and no hot weather . So it's gonna be a good month.Ra'eesah fasts full day and i'm gonna let mik do a three hour fast as his only four turning 5 in september but he needs to start learning now already .
Ra'eesah fasted her first full day from the age of six and she did this all on her own i did not ask her too. She wanted to.

ON the studies side i decided to wait another year before i start studying i'm learning lots with the new job now so i'll join unisa next year probably. My hubby on the other hand has done so well now with his second year he passed all four subjects for the first semester and his got four more left for the second semester. And then he just has one more year left. I can't believe how time has flown.We've made lots of duah that we would make it through. And by the grace of GOD( ALLAH) we did. All the sacrificing and hard work is def paying off.

Oh and i forgot to tell you all i started my own transportation company we are currently transporting kids from a childrens home to school everyday.It's called cape shuttle services.
my website address is www.capeshuttleservices.co.za

If there are any web fundies otu there who whats to sponsor me to have my site done please mail me on
fazlin.bedford@gmail.com please i would greatly appreciate it.

I hardly have any time for scrapping now but i'm sure i will be i've got lots of events coming down and that means lots of photo's that i will have to scrap to capture the memories and the moments. Oh and it's my birthday this sunday yes i'm turnin the BEEG

oh the drama's of job hunting

So after my months and months of job hunting woes and goign to interview after interview. I get a job offer handed to me on a silver platter . It should be good right NOT. It's not close to home i will have to travel and they want me to work on saturdays . So i've not accepted the offer. But it's like i'm haing one of those moments where i see the story in my head about the guy who was sitting on top of his house after a hurricane praying for help. And the boat came and he said no his waiting on GOD to save him, then a helicopter came and he refused their help too. and as the water was risign he asked GOD when he was gonna save him. And the reply was he was sent various means of help and he refused.
so here is my dilemma after all these months and months of searchign and not finding anythig here i get somethign given to me . No it;s not ideal but it will teach me so much more and i will gain lots of expierence which is what i need to earn more kwim.
But i have to sacrifice the time with my kids on sat's and travel in .

What to do ???????

Everyone says i should keep on looking but what if it is like the scenario i explianed above what

Flip they just called me now WTH !!!

April 28 2009 where has the

year gone . Shew it kinda just flew right past us. I've been slacking on my plans to start my website what is new i am seriously sabotaging myself . I should have had it up and running over a year ago and still today nothing. I think i need someone to actually just create it for me now so i can get my asset into gear seriously. As a friend said to me yesterday i am what they call frustrated creatives we are creative creatures but so frustrated cause we have no outlet for our creativity. Mine is def digital scrapbooking ,creaing websites( if i can learn more) and I would love to start photography and combine them all kwim. Gawd it's so frustrating knowing what you want but not getting there it's seriously eating me up. I'm gonna have to figure out a way to get the website online atleast that would ease some of this frustration i'm feeling. So yes that is me and what i'm up to now
I think i need to start scrapping i've been very busy with work and little time to scrap and play. This was the last page i made and it's seriously lacking the normal fuzzy OOmffph ... ok i'll have to load later blogger image loading is bombing out on me

What a weekend !!

Eish i ended up in bed on Sat evening. with a fever so bad and i kept on shivering as i was cold as hell. On Sunday morning I was knackered and i still had to do my chores. And to top it off hubby has 6 boils under his arm all due to him stressing over his upcoming exams OI. Lucky my sis took the two kids with to a family day i decided to keep mish home as she just potty trianed recently and i was not gonna send her with my sis and make her day hectic by running around with a 2 yrs old to the loo every few minutes.

When they got back on sunday evening they where exhausted they had wayy to much fun playing soccer, feeding the horses and jumping on the mega beeg jumping castle.

And then after they all went to bed and i packed everything for this morning i decided i'll make some cupcakes. Only to see my stove died on me again. Hubby then fixed it and just before 1am out popped my yummy cupcakes and i packed them away for the kiddies to take along to school today.

No i did not go to sleep Mik's chest then acted up and the poor child coughed not stop so i had to give him his meds and wait up to hear if it cleared up. It cleared up a bit but only enough for him to sleep. I packed his meds and a message for his teacher to watch him at school today.
So yip i got to sleep just before 2.30am and i woke up at 5.00 this morning so this is a blue monday cause i'm tired and i need sleep and i think my family needs to get well now.

Happy Spring day for South African's



Yes it's the 1st of spring on our side of the world and guess what it's cold freezing actually .We had such a cold weekend with storms and gale force winds. Lucky me and my family where all nice and snug inside. Gave me time to catch up on household chores and my ironing. Also today is the start of RAMADAAN which is the holy month for Muslims all over the world. I've had a good first day so far and i'm just thinking of my 10yr old poppit Ra'eesah who is also fasting the whole day i'm hoping it goes well for her too.

Other than that i'm trying to 1 create some kits to sell and 2 complete my freaking site which as of today has a header and BG paper but nothing else. I worked on a sample at home but keep on forgetting to pop it on my flash drive so i can bring it to work and edit and fiddle to complete it.

I've created 1 page for this month yes i'm lacking in all my areas of creativity. here it is
Thanks to the snap and scrap team for this awesome galaxy kit.

here are my monsters.

OK that Karma stuff is darn good

LOL so yesterday i asked for work karma right so guess what.
One call from the company Unilever but their offer was too little so did not take it and they situated even futher .2nd offer was from another school closer to home not very close but closer than where i am now and for less money, i replied and asked them if they could negotiate since it would be more work than i'm doing now.

So keep on sending the karma you guys sure do rock...
