Bleurgh!!!!!!!

Back to normal this morning, its 4.15 am and I am here with a cuppa and some toast, that can only mean one thing!! Yep, holiday over and back to work......bleaurghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Nuff said........have a good day everyone.........

.........................having said that....today IS a gooooood day too..........because its not many hours till I get to see NEW MOON :D :D :D :D....let's hope I stay awake!!!!!

YESSSS!!!!!! There IS a god!

They have been booted off...........at last..........hurrah!!!!!!!

at last the X factor has become a singing competition and not a total farce.......well nearly!

It's almost time......

Tomorrow I am going, with karen, to see this........I am drooling already.....






Tissues and waterproof mascara at the ready Karen!!!!!

......and so it begins!

Yep, its officially started! Christmas that is....the last couple of days have seen me making a start on wrapping pressies and making lists of what still needs to be bought( which really is too much for the amount of money in the Christmas pressie purse!) I sat down earlier with a nice cup of tea....a festive bacon butty lol....and a bag of bits and bobs, some of which are going in stockings...oh yes and I had some Christmas music on just for good measure( well it all helps doesn't it!)

Tomorrow I am off out with my lovely hubby for the day, we are hoping to pretty much finish the pressie shopping, but to be honest I am just really looking forwards to having some one to one time with my man! So watch out Crawley, here we come!

I have also made a start on some Christmas cards. I like this one apart from her cheeks, I just CANNOT get the cheeks right and all the girls seem to end up looking like they have contracted mumps or some such nasty disease LOL!

I have discovered today that we can now get Promarkers at my most very favourite stash shop Cardinal Colours http://www.cardinalcolours.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=175

so I am now trying my hardest to sweet talk my hubby into getting Santa to bring me this set...

What do you reckon my chances are?...............

Those twins are like Marmite........

you either love em....or hate em..... and I have to say I am in the latter of those 2 catergories! I really enjoy watching the x-Factor, yeah sure sometimes the judges get on your nerves with their remarks and fake tears but hey, thats all part of the show isn't it!And I think that there is a fair amount of talent on their this year, I don't agree each week with who gets the boot always, but then I am not in the profession, so what do I know???

But JEDWARD!!!!!! Perleeeeaaaassseee!!!!( even the name makes me think of something you could clean your toilet with or its something nasty and contagious!!) Don't get me wrong, I know they are only kids...BUT....they CANNOT sing!!!!!! Not a bit, sure they are entertaining, in a strange sort of way....They have some sort of power over you when they are on stage, you don't like them BUT you can't NOT watch them perform lol.

So when this joke was emailed to me I absolutely rolled about laughing....and thought i would share it :)

So Mellie, if you read this Hun I just want to say a big THANK YOU to you for sharing it with me, it made me laugh big time....and that can only be good right?....xxxxxxxxxx

The best thing about rain.......

is when you look out and see you have been treated to a rainbow. But it is just soooooo very frustrating when you cannot capture the true beauty of it, even after taking over 20 shots!!!!

This was the view looking our front door earlier this afternoon..xxx

A Taste of Things to Come......

I have been working on my class pages for January, I like to make January a Christmas layout for my ladies so that they can use their latest Christmas photos on their page. December's class is generally not a layout and this year is no different, they will be making something that they can either keep for themselves or can give away as a gift.



Anyway, back to January's classes.... I thought I would give a little sneak of a teeny bit of both of them...so here they are.
So, now I need to start on Febs pages.....talk about wishing the year away LOL!
I am really not sure where this year has gone, its really flown by hasn't it! maybe its true what they say about time passing faster as you get older?!?!**!!

The weather is still atricious today, although to be fair the wind does seem to have settled down a bit now, but we are still experiencing large downfalls of the wet stuff. Hope it clears up though as I am on holiday this week...alas not going away anywhere, but just to get 3 and a half hours of extra sleep each morning by getting up at 7am will be fabulous, I have NO intention of letting go of the quilt before that.
Have a smashing Sunday...xxx
