Yey!!!

We have our stuff!!! Our furniture, pictures, kitchen items (including a beloved microwave) and books books and more books...and other stuff...sooo much stuff...amazing how people collect things...

I have got most of my stuff (minus some books) in my room...hubby has his stuff in his room and in the hallway...we have almost put the furniture where it needs to go, but will finish that part of the organizing tomorrow. Today's priority was to get his desk put back together, get things in the right room...

We got up just before 9am, made a cuppa tea and got ready to have breakfast when the removal men showed up at the door...We were expecting them to text or call when they got close to Inverness so we could be properly prepared...so we had to get the doors opened, the cat shut in the bathroom and the dog in the car, move the car and make coffee for the boys...and then watch them move and shift things and tell them where everything went. By 11am the whole van was empty, one step ladder missing and the slats for the bed missing...so we are stuck in the spare bed for a few more days while they get replacement slats sent to us... That is the good thing about insurance...

I will get back to sorting through and putting things in drawers and cupboards tomorrow...if I try to do anything tonight I will have to utilize the space on the bed, which means I have to clear the bed again before going to bed, so I will leave it til tomorrow when we get up...just makes more sense...

Then I can get back to sewing and stitching:) YEY:)

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...

New Year, New Home, New Outlook!

Ok, so I have been very bad with writing on my blog...I am slightly ashamed... I do however have a reason for it...This last year went pear shaped, and I lost myself a bit. Firstly in March, my husband failed his final exam for the first time, causing a lot of stress and worry. Secondly, we lost our gorgeous baby girl Tara, our almost 12 year old GSD...she was in too much pain in her back and back legs, she was dragging her back feet as she had no strength to lift them to walk properly on her pads. This caused her to wear down her claws so much that she was bleeding on one occasion. After this occasion we made sure to walk her only on the side of the road so she could drag her feet on grass instead of asphalt. At the end of April 2014, we sent her across the Rainbow Bridge, to join her friend Darwin whom we lost in December 2012. After this awful event, things were quite tough at home, and as if that was not enough, my husband still had to study and practice for his final exam. He ha...

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:)
