Tomorrow, tomorrow and tomorrow......

...I shall be more organised!! How difficult can it be to type a few words each day...the amount of time I spend on here you would think this would be an epic by now!! So...cometh the new year...cometh the new me!! (She says) I will try harder...I will, I will, I will.

And now we have a scrummy new camera (thankyou the aged P's) there is no excuse not to keep up with it all :D

So...have a good evening and I shall be back tomorow

Playing catch up!!

Well, guilt has made me hastily photograph some things I have been making...one of which tastes delish!!

I am on a knitting thing at the moment and these socks are either going to be for FIL or DH - haven't decided yet...


And then there is the scarf that I made a while ago...pattern from GetKnitted.com and the wool is Debbie Bliss Soho. It uses 2 balls and I mean 2 complete balls! I have made 3 now and panic each time I get near the end but there is always about 20cm left over....PHEW!!!


And finally the chocolate brownie that I made this afternoon. It is a bit gooey, as you can see..but is is seriously belicious...and rather sickly...think I ate too much. Ben had some too but it defeated even the little biscuit boy!!!

I have also been making some cards and an altered tin for Scrapkits but I will wait til the newsletter comes out before I put them here.

The pressure is on!!


Oh my life...someone has a link to here on their blog (I am very flattered Jo..thankyou) but it means that I really had better upload something that I have done. I think blogger is being naughty this morning though as it won't let me add an image :(
Now it has..here is the necklace I made with my birthday beads :D
DH has a trianing day today which meant that he took L to school and will be home before 7 for the first time this week! It also means that I wallowed in bed til 7.30 - a complete luxury!

And now the postie has arrived with my christmas wool...so I shall away to droll and try again later to put on piccies...............

To do!!

Okay, this is like a kind of to do list of all the things I am wanting to put on here and HOPING to get the time to!!

DS1 is off school today for a training day (teachers) and so we ar going out to play..he won't let me leave him but, thankfully, his friends mum is really nice so no trauma there. Tomorrow I may be helping in his class and then I have a gym assessment so quite when this TO DO list will get done I don't know!

So.......


  • Keep up to date with stuff I have done for Scrapkits DT - still have to send Lou piccies of the gorgeous tin I did from the 3bugs..sorry Chick!
  • Post piccies of the necklace and earrings I made from birthday beads (thankyou Auntie Jan and Uncle Paul:D )
  • Upload (taking first) pics of things I made ay my crop at the weekend
  • Uplaod pages that I have done (I am seriously behind but I can't always be learning new things!) for Shimelles class.

Well...not much to do there then!!

ETA Oh yeah..and update my People to See links cos that is seriously lacking!!!!!
