this is the layout from the 2nd prompt of Shimelles new class pretty paper party, it's a layout using all patterned papers.

I am having a mini break from work

So far I haven't done a thing.
We woke up this morning about 4 am we both heard a noise from the kitchen. I thought it was just the fridge or freezer making a noise then we heard something else.... Dave and Kelly went to investigate and went outside as well, nothing.. then heard it again and I realised it was the insect repellant squirting like it does every 20 minutes or so.. oops back to sleep.
