Some more decoration type pictures using my more fancy camera, I haven't used it for a while. We'll put the ceiling decorations up tomorrow, because my dad is working over the weekend and then I can take some pictures of those too..
We out our Christmas tree today! I always feel christmassy when that's put up and we have a new tree this year, a prelit one so non of that getting wrapped up in wires and walking in circles around the tree!
Even more presents. I literally have not a single spare place to put anything now but this is the last of it. Well I also brought more things today and have hid them in 4 different places in my room so I definitely am out of room now. When I finally wrap them and put them under the tree, I don't think there will be any space left my anything else! Just have to buy my Mum a plant nearer to christmas so it doesn't grow out the box like the years before.
Tulips for helping to build the wardrobes and drawers. Very pretty and I love the colour. :]
The other wardrobe that we built today and took only a few hours, even though my back had pretty much died from yesterday and I couldn't move :/
This was one long day building these two. Luckily, the furniture arrived at about 9 in the morning and we finished building them at about 5. It was knackering. The wood is so heavy (one package weighed 36kg and there were 6 of them! and sturdy and we built them upstairs because we'd never be able to get them up the stairs after they were built.
Lotsa presents!! We went to a few different places today, and these are things for my parents. I always prefer to get lots of smaller things for my because it's more fun to open and these things are things that my Mum and Dad always use but want most. It's me getting all the presents this year so I'm going to have fun wrapping everything as this is just half of what I have to wrap and there are still more things to get later in the week! Better not leave it too late, I love wrapping though. I get selotape happy so I've been told.
Cleo giving me a 'oh crap, camera in my face again' look!
I took this too remind me that I need to do more scrap stuff for me. I've done loads for other people, which is fun but I have tons of photos and I just ordered some which arrived today so my new years resolution is to scrap more of my photos :] Plus I'm getting a big box of scrapbooking stuff for christmas, which i'm looking forward to delving into! and I have the things I got a few weeks ago that I can't wait to use, especially on those photos I took at Syon Park.
Lovely bouncy new carpet! It's really a nice colour and lights the room which once before looked really dark because the carpet was dark navy blue and with dark curtains so now it looks heaps brighter :) I love new carpet, it's always so springy!
So technically this was taken yesterday! Ooops, but I can't find a photo for today so I'm cheating! The picture demonstrates the crap which filled my room. Oh the fun we had moving it from room to room..
A very clean room. That's because all the crap that it contains.. ok not all of it was crap, there was a bed and computer but there is a lot of crap in there.. went into next door, so the carpet could be fitted in. :]
Just roses I took on my camera phone, which has to be of the shittiest (sp) quality for a camera that's supposed to be 2mp. I think it's better outdoors though and with more light.. but still. It's like VGA :\
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.
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)
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!
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 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 4.80
A dodgy picture for a reason, and I say no more.
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)
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!
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'
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!
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)
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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!
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)
A layout about letters my grandad used to write to me when he was alive. :] They are very important too me.
The cat and I have been watching too much Most Haunted this week and it's had an affect on Cleo... ooooooh!
You'd think i'd know how to post pictures properly on here but i've still yet to master it!
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.
