31st January

Basicially my camera batteries were dying and this was the only picture that I got today before it completely died on me (I'm a lazy thing and I haven't charged it up yet)

Her feets are cute though :]

30th January

My eyes have been going a bit funny the past few weeks, getting headaches and such so I popped myself along to the optitions for an eye test and i've gone from long sighted to short sighted, most likely to be from using my new laptop for the past few months, so I got myself some sexy new specs! Well two pairs but these ones fit better, although the other ones suit me better, they need the backs bending down a bit more.

29th January

I'm a bit of a lip gloss fanatic. I adore them! and I used to have loads although I actually (somehow) threw a lot of the crappy ones out so I brought myself a new one and it's yummy. Perfect pink colour, not sticky, goes on lovely and I love it, so much so that I ordered another one but it's a lighter pink

28th January

Books. One of my favourite authors if Cecelia Ahern, her books aren't really too deep, kinda just books you could pick up and read and then leave leave for a few weeks or something. My favourite book by her is 'Ps I love you' (as you can tell from the spine, it's been read a few times) but I'm reading 'A Place Called Home' at the moment.

And so far so good!

27th January

Well er the only photos I took yesterdays were ones that I wanted to put on ebay bids but my phone got sold to a family member so it's saved me from all that ebay business. And I thought I would treat myself to things, mostly scrapbooking stuff (again). But I brought some buttons (800 of them if they ever turn up), some Heidi Swapp chipboard alphabets, and a lip gloss.

26th Jamaury

Another LO :] I'm not really too pleased with it, it's a bit boring and plain, I still need to add the buttons I brought if they ever get delivered so maybe that will add something more too it. I think I should have done it on a coloured card instead of white..

25th January

My new toy box! Well not exactly for toys, more junk box (or box of shit as as named it ;) I got it from the world famous maker of classy furniture - Lidls - but it's actually pretty nice for just 15 pounds and I can store all the crap I have no space for. I want to decorate it the same colour as the walls but the woods shiny so I don't know if it would work

24th January

The first and probably only snow we'll get this year! It looked so pretty and like on the front of a card (with a bit of grafitti thrown in) but it's all gone now. Didn't even get a chance to make a snowman :(

23rd January

We've had Cleo for 12 years now I think and she's just found out that the top of the tv is nice and warm and perfect for sleeping on. Whe you're sitting on one of the armchairs, you don't realise she's there until a sleepy head pops up and then lays back down, heh

22nd January

The flowers came out a little more, so I just had to take another photo (or 40 of them) No wonder I've taken over 3000 photos in 12 months, I always take about 100 photos and then just pick one :]

21st January

I brought these the other sday, I think these flowers are so lovely (I can't remember the name of them) the pink colour is so pretty and the flowers look so delicate.

20th January

The last few days has been a bit grey, and very stromy but today the sun came out. Beautiful blue sky yet nice and cold!

19th January

All gone, I wish I didn't open them now :( Although I'm trying to go on a healthy kick at the moment - more healthy foods and exercise because I did it for 6 weeks last year and I felt a lot better about myself. So today i've eaten healthy foods and walked, jogged and did weights :)

17th January

My cute kitty cat Cleo

16th January

A little squirel I saw in the garden. I keep forgetting to take my camera when I go out :(

15th January

I finished this layout this afternoon by adding the lettering, I really like this one too because I used the papers from one of the paper pads Al got me for Christmas <3 (so it all matches without having to go through all the papers I have to find matching ones) and the papers are really pretty and bright

14th January

I finally finished my first layout for a while yesterday by adding some zig zag stitching from my Mum's new sewing machine.

I think this is one of my favourite layouts because it all matches together, the bazzill matches the papers and the papers are all from the same range and I brought matching monograms and primas too. I love they little buttons too, they are really cute and paper squares has pictures behind them - like an advert calender :]

13th January

The photo says it all

12th January

One of my favourite things is to wake up and see a blue fluffy sky with the sun shining through the trees :]

11th January

From just looking at this picture, it would make you think 'aw cute!' I think that too when Mo pops her head out her house to say hello. But she's a devil! So far I've brought her a huge cage, much bigger than the last hamsters, house, ladders, a wheel which i've seen her run in once, a ball (which she's scratched to bits) tunnels, see saw tube, and so many different chew toys. I counted 10 toys in the cage and all she ever does it chew the bars, we let her out and she scratches the ball.

She's lucky she's cute!

10 January

My sister brought me magic beans for christmas and these are what are growing from them, I have no idea what they are. They seem to be growing a bit bendy though? Ah well, It's quite exciting not knowing what they are

This would be the 9th's photo

I've been scrapbooking since about April last year when I thought I would make an album for my Mum's 60th Birthday. I had to pretend that I was into it to hide the fact I was actually making a book for my Mum but I adore it now.

It's such a creative way to use and display photos instead of just putting them in a box and never really getting to appreciate them. Since then I've made a book for my cousins 21st, one for my best friends Christmas present and bits of bobs for people along the way

Making things for others meant I haven't done as much scraping for me so a new years resolution fwas to scrap for myself again. I think I forget the mess it creates in my room, how much mum hates picking up all the little cuttings and how much my bank balance suffers each time a new range of paper or embelishments comes out!

I took photos but I don't seem to have the energy at the moment to want to post them. I will though tomorrow

Part of my best friends christmas present to me (which I got today) was this, it's a bouncy ball. I kind of collect them, although I was thinking about donating them to a kids charity. I think this is the ultimate one thoough..

I resisted for 12 days but this afternoon, I finally gave into maltesers greatness that had been sitting in my drawer sitting Christmas Day

We got this puzzle for Christmas and there's 250,000 wrong ways of doing it and only 48 correct ways of doing it. It's so difficult but we managed to get 1 of them so I think that deserves to be todays picture!

5th January

This is my first photo. We all felt a bit couped up indoors after Christmas/New Year and I needed to walk off all those Quality Streets, so we went out for a walk. First we went to Syon Park which was actually a pretty cool place and it had a huge craftshop! I couldn't help myself and I just had to buy a few things.

Then we went to Osterley Park but it was a bit cold (well freezing) and grey so we headed over to The Waterside to get dinner, this was the last photo I took, on a bit of a whim and it's a favourite of mine now

So I thought I would start a blog again. I had one before but never really kept up with it, because I was posting the same things in different places, but I made one yesterday and then I heard about this 365challenge thing where you take a photo a day for a year and post it, so i'm going to give that a shot here. Probably most photos will be boring heh, and I missed a few days already but hey ho :] We'll see how we go. I might add a few other updates in with it too, see how my mood takes me with this.

Oh and the photos are enlarge when clicked on
