slinky malinky......

.....the diet started today...........did really well all day - probiotic for b/fast - diet shake for lunch - carrots for a snack - homemade veg soup for tea.............then I am sitting here minding my own bloody business and a tub of icecream snuck out of the freezer, stealth moved across the kitchen and attacked me and forced several spoons of itself in my mouth. No matter how hard I fought back.....the will of the butterscotch crunch was just too strong.


Look at my lovely soup.....made it all by myself !!!!! It tasted superb..........I am lurvin me some soup (by now Jo has just been a little bit sick) it would have tasted much better with a few slices of fresh crusty bread but hey, that is not good for the diet now is it. I TOLD YOU...THE ICE CREAM ATTACKED ME - THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO !!!!!!!!

One day I will be a slinky malinky..........one day...


Here is a little peek at somink I a been making.........







































..................all about Samuel, quel surprise!!!!

This little fella is sooooooo clever, he has gone from wearing day and night nappy (not the same nappy-obviously Jo does change them) to wearing no nappy WHATSOEVA and no wee-bed !!!!!! Round of applause please !!!!!!!

Last thing for this evening.....Cosmo Cricket will hopefully be announcing a week today.....cross ya fingers and toes for me please..........I have the need to become Cosmo Kat!!!!

Sunday Monday Happy Days.....

......Tuesday Wednesday Happy Days, Thursday Friday Happy Days, Saturday, what a day, grooving all week with Yooooooouuuuuuu................(admit it you are singing now)

Might be pre-emtive there.....still thursday and friday to go !!!!!!!! But so far, good week !!!!

After a crappy spell we decided to cheer ourselves up with some retail therapy on Saturday........


Aren't we naughty...................tee hee

Well, it cheered us up :o) We have been wanting the PS3 for ages and the games are getting limited for the PS2 and I was actually meant to have the printer for my birthday....back in April but I couldn't justify it. I am not tight......just careful !!!!!!! Have learnt about money the hard way unfortunately !!!!











Then.......yesterday........complete shocker.........I got picked out of over 300 peeps to be in the final 12 of the Cosmo Cricket DT search.......I know.....how flippin fantastico is that !!!!!!!!

Wish me luck for the final leg.....I am on a roll.......


To top the week off decided to book a flight to see my little bit of sunshine and Jo. These things have to be done !!!!!! Somehow got to fit everything into a small holdall.....you save £5 each way by booking online but then they charge £8 each way for a suitcase and another £4 each way to book in (!!!!) and THEN another £5 to pay for it by card......how else are you meant to pay for it on the internet ???? ......again, I am not tight......just careful.........honest !!!

Good luck to Nat too :o)

giggle fodder.......

....not a big post cause I am doing stuff but keep hearing this on the tv and it makes me laugh every time. Make sure you listen to the end......if you are not giggling by the third one, even a bit, then pinch yourself cause you may just be dead !!!!!



And Happy birthday H.....enjoy the BBQ (& beer!!!!!!)
x















Off to fiddle with a cricket....cosmic !!!!!

yummyness

Just a quicky to show what I just made...........

.....if it is not obvious.....it is a bracelet !!!!!









Should really be doing other things but this just came upon me - when you have an idea you have to run with it !!!!!! If I say so myself.....lovin this !!!!!

Good times......my sis is home
Bad times.........my mum is sick

Really have to get my Cosmo Cricket sub together tomorrow night.............enough jewellery tomfoollery for me (for a day at least!!!!!!).

:o)

happy sad

Happy fathers day ............

Here we are with our dad......I am the one in the snappy dungarees !!!!!!!

Today is also a bit of a sad day for us as it is the day my nana died 6 years ago. I miss her very much and I don't really have anyone to talk to about her which is quite hard. I wish she could make me soup and carrots again, tell me the recipe for waffles (the one she wrote down for me is sooooo not the right one!!!!), give me a hug and so many other everyday things.

Kept busy today.....cleaned 2 cars.....stripped a million layers of paint from a door handle I scavenged (will show that another day).......yummy dinner cooked....kev sanded and repainted Becky Boos bed....a game of trivial persuit.......not bad really seeing as I didn't get out of my pit until 11.30 !!!!!!

Back on a cheerier note soon hopefully :o)

(New tune playing today............apparantly the other one was getting boring !!!!! I love this song and the CD (Trouble) is one of the best I have)

The lowdown....

New necklace..

......the J is for Janette our stepmum who's birthday it was on Sunday....

.....necklace is made from vintage beads and the brass thingy on the bottom is a locket.

I love collecting this kind of stuff and turning it into...well....more stuff !!!! Hopefully going to be able to find somewhere to share them soon..........

We have a poorly car...Kevs, not mine cause mine is the NooNoomobile which runs on fairy dust which is magic. So far it has been in the garage 3 days.....going towards the 4th and they still can't tell us what is wrong with it.....to me that sounds expensive !!!!!! Meantime Kev has the NooNoomobile which leaves me with my feet.......or 2 wheels. Believe it or not I have actually managed to drag my fat ass out of bed 20 minutes early for 2 days running and opted for the 2 wheels !!!! When I think about that myself I go lightheaded but indeed I have managed it and even in the rain this morning !!!

DT search is up over at Cosmo Cricket........now that would be good........guessing I am not the only one to see it though........

Off to do some stuff with some stuff

Have fun
