Ants in my pants!


My latest journal page. This photo is from an old postcard and I just love these old images ( you can see the original postcard here). Stiff upper lip and all that. So I decided to jolly them up a bit and use the phrase that my Mum has been saying about me for the last 42 years! Yes, all my life I have been accused of having ants in my pants because I can't sit still and I'm always looking for what is next on the agenda. It's not always a good thing - I wear myself out sometimes, and those around me, because I just don't know when to stop. Ah well, life is short, you have to make the most of it :-) I'm not sure if this page is finished yet. I may journal around the image......I'll see how the mood takes me. I'm trying to save something to do in my journal because I'm off jet-setting again soon and I'll have to take something with me to do on holiday because......well, because I have ants in my pants of course!
