A trip the the Harvester. We've found a really nice one which doesn't get overly crowded with scraming kids like some others we've been in. My reason liking the Harvester = their salad, which is free which makes it even better! I had pasta, bacon bits, garlic crutons, carrot, pineapple, sweetcorn, sauce and more than that. For dinner I had Salmon and Chips which was lovely too :)
Went to Westway because I wanted to get some LCD covers for my new phone, which I did get (Jessops is a bad shop though, they have so many lovely camera) Went into Hobbycraft and by my surprise I resisted everything in there (maybe I wasn't feeling too well)
In boots, they had all their Christmas stuff and catalogue in which is crazy but I did buy my first presents for the year! Thought I may as well while I was there and there was no rush like you get in December too buy stuff :) Hard to believe christmas is only a few months away!
My dad got this pillow thing from my Uncle as he brought he for my Auntie but she didn't want it and i've always wanted to get one. They are filled with the tinyest little beads and it's so soft and comfortable.
I'm pretty bad at book reading. I'm normally go through phases of finding a book, reading it within a few weeks and then not reading another for a few months. I think I might make a new resolution new year to read a book a month!
This one I picked up in a charity shop (I don't believe in buying books new really, and they have just what there is in a book shop in a charity shop) and so far this book is could. It's about a mother whose daughter goes to Uni and she kinda starts a new life, typical romantic comedy typa book..
A new exercise toy, which is really good and better than buying a rowing machine (which I would have no space for!) I've been doing sit ups 3 times a week and this gives a different way of doing them :)
I've had a bit of a problem with my ears the past week or so - They feel a bit blocked up, and I have the loudest cracking noises when I swallow.
I went to the doctors and she said she couldn't see anything wrong but that it might be fluid behind the eardrum (kids get this when they are young, and then they have gromits put in so the fluid can drain out. She even asked if I had them when I was younger, which I haven't) So I have tablets to take for 3 weeks for that and then the Tetralysal is for spots, which i've been getting. I have to take them for 3 months! So many tablets..
Went to pick up my glasses (again) and next door is a cheapy type shop and the last time we went in there, they had craft stuff, which makes Louise a very happy bunny normally but it wasn't great quality.
This time I noticed these felt alphabets, which i'm in love with. They are felt, with stitching and buttons on, so very cute! I doubt they are acid free or anything but I will be careful when using them and for 1.25 a pack, they can't be beaten. I reckon they'd be about 3.50+ on a craft website, so bargains ahoy!
Taken on my phone so it's crappy quality but this is what I came down to one morning. Mo is a bit of a home wrecker as demonstrated!
The ingrediants for the perfect smoothie - blender, semi skimmed milk, natural yogurt, peanut butter, vanilla protein powder and a banana.
So yummy!
A pretty poor quality photo but I think it's super cute 'I am a tiger' I wish I had my proper cameras near by at the time :)
To be honest, I have no idea how this thing is still living. I swear i'm not trying to kill it on purpose because I don't like it...
Honest.. *whistles*
Yummy cakes! We had a baking day on Sunday. Fruit and Chocolate cupcakes for my Mum, peanut crisps for my sister (they needed to be a bit more peanutty though) and scones for my dad. All very tasty though!
Ok so I know I said I was happy with my phone and it is an ok phone but I couldn't get along with it and it was so hard to text on and it was chunky
(A few times I was a second away from throwing it against the wall)
So this is my new phone and oh oh my!! it's such a dream. I'm in love and I tell the phone that everyday (sad girl) It's so easy to text, the buttons are lovely, everything is so easy to use, and it's like my old old nokia that I loved but got rid of, but even better! :D The screen is great too. I honestly think I will keep this for a long long time (I mean it) So the Sony one is on Ebay right now (Never getting a sony again, they are so boxey)
I sold my MP3 player. I haven't used it for a very long time, maybe 4 months or so and I never take it out when I got out because I have my little one. I use my laptop and radio to listen to music and was mainly using it too store music but now I have a harddrive, which is my back up.
I got 50 pounds, which I then spent on my new gadget!
This is going to help me turn into the female bill oddie next spring and hopefully birds will nest in it and I'll take some fabulous photos :D
I actually kinda like the fact that the trees are blurred and all the attention is on the box, I must remember that for next time.
We grow tomatoes in the garden every year for a long while and this is a few of them (there were many more!) although unfortunately I don't really like tomatoes (except with chicken and lettuce, I could eat that right now actually).
Oh oh my dad brought this. We have Adobe 6 I think, but this is more on an updated version and seems easier to use because although we've had PS for a long while, I still have zero idea how to use it!
This, I'm sure, is the elements of the full adobe and a lot of things can be done at the click on a button (more my style of doing things) Actually it has an auto fix, which is fab because a lot of my photos seem to have dark backgrounds and you click 'auto fix' and it adjusts it in 1o seconds. We have some party photos from a restaurant, which look so much better now! I will do my best to learn all about it, I know there's a book somewhere, so I might look into that.
A bit of a crappy sunset. I really want to be out in a big park and see a glorious sunset, or one at a beach. The same tower block and trees and pretty rubbish now to be honest.
It feels like I haven't posted a picture of the Cleo for a while (it has been 3 weeks since I updated this though ahem)
She's getting older now so I've been taking more photos of her, just because :) She's so cute though, ever so friendly which is funny because she never used to be. Now she sticks by my side all the time!
I have sme serious catching up to do of this, but I have an excuse of no glasses and I didn't want to sit for ages and get headaches, but I have them now and all is good with the world!
Anyway, Pretty flowers in the garden!
