Last one! This is supposed to be a lovely chocolate top with a design on the back and i've waited about 2 weeks for it and today I received this.A not so lovely blue bath mat, which has a sticker on it that says chocolate hooded top. Argh!

Today I had a great day. Me and Mum booked tickets to see Joseph many months ago after Lee Mead won the show thing on the BBC (It was more me wanting to go though to be honest ahem)Anyway, I won't ramble on and on about the inns and out of how we got there and traffic and how crazy the west end is busyness wise (kinda scary how many people were about and the cars and stuff)
but it was an amazing show and Lee makes a really amazing Joseph! We saw it years ago with Philip Scofield, but this time it was loads better (Sorry Phil)
We had really great seats - just ten rows from the front and on the end so Louise's long legs had space to fit in. I should write about that on theatremonkey actually and recommend those seats..
So yeah it was a lot of fun, it was a nice surprise for a certain someone and I'd love to go again but more because it seemed to go quite fast and i'd like to absorb it again :)
And incase you didn't guess, the first picture is mine, and the second isn't!
November 21st
Ok so this picture makes no sense but there is a reason behind it but it's long to explain and I can't be arsed so i'll leave it as it is - a spanner!
November 20th
Out shopping again today, with my dad, and had more success and managed to get a coat and a rather lovely new hooded top! I love both :) Also got a few other things - my dad managed to get shoes and trousers which were reduced and I got another pair of trousers, some presents and other things which i've forgotten!I know I came home with loads of bags though!
I also got these socks, which are funky. I love socks, I never wear them as much as I should for the amount I have of them, but they call out to me and I can't help it. They were only a pound anyway.
November 19th
I never never buy clothes, only when I have too really because I hate shopping, well clothes shopping. Anyway, we headed off to matalan looking for a coat and came back to a pair of trousers, 2 tshirts, socks, and underwear, oh and a top, which cost 6pounds and I had 20% discount which made it just 4.80bargains = happy louise
But no coat = pouty louise
Tomorrow i'm off out again in search of one
November 17th
I think I said no more cat photos for a while, but she just looked really cute sleeping. She normally takes up this position to sleep, with her feet under head and her arms wrapped round.
November 16th
A dodgy picture for a reason, and I say no more.I've just realised how to post 2 pictures in one post, only took me 11 months!
November 15th
This doesn't really show up too well I don't think, should have taken it during the day really but it's my parents room. New paint and new border. And they actually don't have a nasty border this time! (They sometimes go for some weird flowery patterns - nononono)It should look nice with the new furniture, due in december, new carpet in a few weeks and new curtains!
November 14th
I love this paper! It's from the same range called 'October Afternoon' and only one site in the UK had it at the time, so I brought some!
November 13th
My Mum brought me this from B&Q and she's really fascinated by it. It is pretty sweet but she's scarily loving it too much I feel because she keeps picking it up and going 'now isn't that clever, it's a butterfly, and it lights up'(I'm not explaining it well, but I get it)
November 12th
New christmas tree! Our one is a few years old, still looks ok but it looks a bit 'gappy' and we couldn't find one in the sales last year, so Mum and Dad picked this one up in B&Q i think, and it already has 200 lights on it!(we never have enough lights on ours and the bottom row looks unloved)
Not long until we put it up!
November 10th
This is a painting my grandad did, and i love it. When he passed away, I asked if I could have it and it's special, for a few reasons (which are secret)We have a few of his paintings in our house and I sometimes wonder if I got my creativeness (not that I've got lots, but I want to be creative) from him.
November 9th
This is an example of the crap that is in my parents room, well my room while they were decorating. Those camera things have not been used for 20 years?! and my dad still keeps them even though they most likely don't work. I think he thinks in 10 years they'll suddenly be worth a few thousand.*shakes head*
November 8th
A leetle bit of a better photo of the fireworks. To be honest, I was having more fun watching them than taking photos every few seconds.. They had some amazing ones, i've never seen anything like it but they are on video.
November 7th
Christmas presents. I took advantage of the spend over 50pounds and get free delivery, not that I spent 50 pounds. My Mum got vouchers and cards and then I brought a few things. I'm doing pretty well on Christmas shopping so far actually. I have my sister all sorted which is very rare and I know what to get for everyone else :)
Well I did have something for Al, but he brought it..
(Hullo if you're reading :)
November 6th
Super cute mo. We have this little game where I place a big bit of food on the top tier, in this case a nut, and she gets it, climbs down the ladder, puts it in the corner, runs up to the tier again and I put it back and she does it again, and again, and again.I think she thinks she'll end up with a big stack of food. She's very adorable though.
November 5th
Probably the worst picture of a firework that there ever could be! It's better to be right under them if taking photos of them, but ah well! They weren't that good anyway, super tiny.
November 3rd
I have a pretty huge stereo but don\t listen to the tape player or cd player anymore. I can play cds on the laptop or dvd and well tapes aren't made anymore. So i'm going to put it on ebay at some point.. It will probably get 10 pounds at most but hey ho, that's all they are worth these days. Hopefully my lovely parents will be buying me a DAB radio for christmas, because I do often listen to the radio when in my room, or when exercising. I seem to be getting rid of everything onto ebay this year, I'll have nothing left soon!
Oh..
There's no way I haven't posted here for nearly a month!
Oh dear :/
Best get cracking on catching up!

November 1st
I can't believe i've started on christmas already, although it's not long to go if you think about it but it still feels too far away. Anway, when we were out yesterday (had to go and pick my new specs up as the arm fell off the old pair and then go to the doctors again about my ears) I saw christmas paper, 2 for 1, so I thought 'why not?' saves me trawling around an extra shop around christmas time and wrapping paper is the worst to carry around.Also brought a few other things but I won't mention them
(which sounds a bit rude doesn't it? but you never know if my family members somehow read this)
October 31st
I got me some new trainers! I never ever spend a lot of money on trainers, I hate spending lots of money on clothes or bags or things in general (happy to spend it on expensive cameras though unfortunately) I've always wanted some like this and I had a look on the internet but couldn't find anything I really like. I had a look on ebay and I found these which I love love!And they were 20 pounds less than the shops and in the colour I really wanted
= happy louise!
*pets them*
October 30th
Each year when it gets colder, my cat edges more and more closer towards the radiator. No more cat photos for a while though, it's just easier to take photos of her sometimes (i'm a lazy arse occassionally)
October 29th
A layout about letters my grandad used to write to me when he was alive. :] They are very important too me.
October 28th
The cat and I have been watching too much Most Haunted this week and it's had an affect on Cleo... ooooooh!
October 27th
You'd think i'd know how to post pictures properly on here but i've still yet to master it!
This is the first pumpkin we;ve ever got (I think) and carved, and we only got it because it was cheap - 98p. So messy though, so not sure if i'd get another.. I made soup though and added potato in and it tasted pretty good, first soup i've ever made aswell! I was sadly quite proud of myself :]
(It did so very strange after a few days though and we had to chuck it out)
October 26th
I have been sorting through scrapbook things to hopefully sell a few things on. This books helps improve your handwriting and I've had a bash at it but then forgot, so it's just one of the things i'm hoping to get rid of.
October 25th
More baking! An apple pie this time which had a bit too much pastry but hit the spot nether the less..
October 24th
Some cakey.. It's plain and chocolate, you put white blobs of mix in the tray and then mix cocoa into the rest and put them blobs inbetween the plain blobs and ^^^ happens!
October 23rd
More decorating.. This time my mum and dad's room, which has actually needed decorating for the last 15 years if not more but my dad is anti DIY until he's forced to do it. I think the plan is clearing out, tidying, sanding (I hate sanding) paint the ceiling, paint the walls, new border, new carpet, new wardrobes and drawers and then new bed(s).Oh the joys..!
October 22nd
Tags! Using my cute new stamps so it will add a personal touch to my presents :] May have to make a few more, I always prefer getting lots of mini presents instead if possible instead of one main one, more fun that way.
October 21st
Oh! I got these from that lovely craft shop at Syon Park and they were reduced. I've wanted to get them online for a long time but never brought them, so when I saw them I had to snap them up! I got a christmas one too so I could try and make some gift tags (I would like to make my own cards but what's the worth of paying out so much money when they most likely get chucked, and you can buy lovely cards for just a few pounds)
October 20th
Damn photos are going in the wrong order! This is Osterley Park, I have many many pictures from there but the last time we went it was quite greyish but when we went this time, it was beautiful and blue and the sun was coming down and reflecting on the water :] So I took some pictures with the new camera (which i'm starting to like more and more)(Although if Santa still wants to get me a Canon 400d, i'd be very greatful)
(or a cheap guitar from ebay!)
October 19th
Pictures from Syon Park. Had a really lovely day and took my newer camera. There was a waterfall there so I tested out out the shutter speed settings, I was really pleased with the results. Also finally got to try my polariser out, It worked great on the fishy pictures! We went in the garden centre, had cake, and brought a few things from their craft shop.
October 18th
I like facebook, well kinda like, the initial 'ohh new shiny toy' is wearing off fast and I can't really be arsed with it more and more. Anyway, the worst thing is demonstrated to the left.. Endless invitations to applications, which are ridiculous. I don't really want to be a slayer or zombie or look at a daily hunk or anything like that. Pacman could be cool though!(Not really a picture as such but saves me taking a peekchure of the screen)
October 16th
Most comfortable socks in the world! They do strange yes but they are lovely and nuggly.. Funny thing is I have so many socks, I have a think for funky looking ones - stripes and dots typa thing but I rarely ever wear them indoors, just when I wear shoes out but I still buy them :]
October 14th
And the third! I think from this lil course, I learned that I might not be the best photographer but oh well! I like taking photos for me, and if I like them, then that's the main thing and i'm happy to learn as I go, myself. Plus I found a load of really helpful info on the fuji website, specific to my camera which seems so much more helpful. The course was somewhat of a let down really, and I only learnt a few things that I can use in the future. The free information is a million times better so far ;)
October 13th
Another photo for the mini course, it's about shooting closer to the object or something. I like it because it's sharp and colourful :] Although I should purchase better pencils, the ones I have I had at school many years ago!
October 12th
I haven't updated this for a long time. I'm a bad girl. But I do have the pictures! I didn't realise it was 3 weeks :/ Anyway, this is kitty paws. For the little course I was doing..
