Not a pretty picture...but...still had to share...

I am not sure i told you about Darwin's latest preferences of sleeping at night...just above my head...which is normally where I have the pillow and my head (logically)...I have had to move downwards in bed curling up so he has space...and most of the time I have Tara at the bottom of the bed, so I end up in fetal position...that's life with pets...
This picture was taken this morning (not a pretty picture, I know)...I thought Darwin was done for the night, so I removed my pillow and reached my arms above my head just to stretch a bit, but he jumped up and went straight in to cuddle, and you should have heard his purring...he can be VERY loud...lol

On another note...I am still hoping I will find the missing thread, so I decided to start a new canvas work project from one of the Inspiration magazines...found some variegated DMC threads I won ages ago, and a nice pale blue for the central diamond. I will show pix tomorrow...gonna do some more work on it tonight, and perhaps even finish it. The project will be a pincushion according to the magazine. I may use it as a scissor keep...or just an ornament...and I am loving the colors so far:)

    Thanks:) It is lovely, but sometimes hard work...especially when they really want something...all you gotta do is accept it and do what they want...with a dog you can tell them no...it may take a few times but they will eventually give up, but with a cat...they don't know what giving up means...lol

    What an awesome pic of you and Darwin. He's such a love. Yes Dear stays away from my head. She doesn't want to get tangled in my air hose, lol. But she often lays on my legs or back or chest. Silly cat!!! Can't wait to see your new canvas work project. And I'm still hoping you find the spool that Pearl stole!!

    I'll post a pic of the canvas work tomorrow. I was gonna do it tonight, but then I did the Kirkwall pix instead...I love my mobile phone camera as it is amazing...not very good with a zoom, but just straight up it is really good:) Darwin is in the period of being very clingy...not sure how long he will be wanting to sleep with me, and for my sanity I sure hope it won't be too long...lol

    Cool, I can't wait to see. And Darwin, well, he's just Darwin. He'll get over it sometime, and you'll love him in the meantime.

    I'll always love Darwin...:) It is quite funny at the moment the way he comes to get me in the evening when he feels it is time to cuddle...and he won't rest until I put my arms out so he can cuddle in them...if I don't have my arms available to him, he just sits there staring at me...lol

    LOL,sounds like Yes Dear. She will, when she thinks she needs petting, climb up on the desk and sit in between my arms. She then stares at me till I stop typing and pet her, lol. It's too funny.

Slimming World update!

I AM SOOOOOOO HAPPY!!! I lost 6 1/2 pounds, which means I have reached my 1st stone milestone:) I am so surprised but happy...I have gained 1/2pound three weeks in a row because my period was 3weeks late. Now my period has come and gone, and it just shows how much my body is affected by the f***king period...  (and those stars are hiding REA and nothing else...lol) So, tonight it is Nando's dinner...chicken, coleslaw and ratatouille (or perhaps some lovely chips) to celebrate weightloss as well as payday...I do normally let myself enjoy a nice treat of some sorts after my weigh in...that way it is easier to stay on track the rest of the time...:) I am getting on with my Siamese cats, and am about halfway through with the white, and once that is done I am finished and can make them into a cushion cover:)

Refreshing my blog (long time coming)...

Hi, I haven't posted here for a very long time. Towards the end of the last period of blogging I completely lost track of my craftiness and there was just too much going on in life. Now I am finally feeling like myself again, I have started a web shop on Etsy and have started selling my jewellery from a shop in town. I have not yet been brave enough to do a craft fair, but I have my eyes on one in October and then it is a matter of doing some Christmas fairs to get my name out there. Below you can see some of the things I have made, and I will be posting my finished items whatever they may be both on Instagram, Facebook and here, planning on going a bit more in depth here for whoever wants to know more:) So, here we go:) This was a commission, made up of peacock colour freshwater cultured pearl nuggets and silver-plated copper stardust beads and findings. It consists of a ring, ear studs, bracelet and necklace. The lady who ordered it absolutely loves it:) Below are so...

Notice

So...I have told people at work that I am leaving, and feel sooo relieved:) Did not enjoy it for a second, but the reaction was ok, and the fact that I am gonna hand my notice in tomorrow (still won't leave until middle/end July) is gonna help my manager start looking for a replacement straight away, and hopefully I can train my successor before I leave. Other than that I am just potting about looking for inspiration even though I have way too much to do already...been out wtih Tara for walks yesterday and today in teh drizzle...halfway through today's walk the sun came out an dit was really warm, but now it is grey again...I am not complaining too much as it is a relief after so much sun...the ground needs it as well. Am gonna take my sewing machine down to the kitchen table tomorrow, and my fabrics, and am gonna play around a bit whilst my husband works nights over the weekend...am hoping to have some pictures to show for it:)
