A New Week - A new Start

I hope you all had a good weekend. Mine... well it wasn't how I planned.. Malcolm and I fell out all day Sunday but we did make it up. That was down to Malcolm as he always gives me a cuddle when we fall out. Thats one of the reasons why I love him so much. I know I dont always show it but the feelings are still there. As a result I cut my little finger in 2 places and one is quite deep. Before anyone asks I am not suffering that much. I did not manage to get any scrapping or studying done. TUT TUT TUT.

On Ebay I did really well over the weekend. I even managed to transfer some into my bank account. i have my eye on some more skirts though that I liked. I know my limits so I am not going to bid more than I can afford.

I have also set myself a weekly budget for general day to day bits. I am going to stick to it.. I am going to stick to it! I AM GOING TO STICK TO IT!!!!!!!!

My wardrobe is looking good. I have sorted it all out and hung all items together. I will add a photo when I can. I still need to sort a few other things out in Malcolms house and my house to put on Ebay or sell at a car boot Sale. I have so much stuff (not mentioning the craft room) that I need to sort something out. Oh I might do my craft room as I have memorbilla all over the place and card making bits in different boxes. I just need to be tough but it isn't easy you know!!!

Oh well if I can I will write a bit more tonight but cant guarantee anything!!

Welcome to Tuesday!

I hope you all had a good weekend. Mine was kinda normal. Buying and selling on Ebay... Sold quite a few items but also bought a few. it can be quite addictive even the selling bit can be!
Malcolm and I went for a bike ride and saw some lovely gooslings. Malcolm then took quite a few photos... When I get home I will endeavour to add some on here as they are lovely and cuddly.
Last night all three of us went on a bike ride as it is fun and good exercise as well! it was only 30 mins but it is better than sitting at home eating chocolate... but only just though!!!

my coat hangers arrived and I have sorted through my tops and have them all on hangers. When the others arrive that I can hang my skirts on I will take a photo and show you the difference. I have another set coming in the post so I cant wait for them to arrive. It has made a difference as I have all my tops in the wardrobe and I could not do that before. So before you mock me for getting excited thats the reason why!

My studying is going OK! I have set out a plan to finish each section by a set date so I can answer all the questions from the other book! If I stick to it it should give me over 2 months to sit exam papers and jsut practise practise practise. Hopefully I can get some scrapping done in between but who knows.

Thats it for now!

Well good morning to you all.....


It is only blooming Thursday!!! Hopefully today I should get my coat hangers.. Yes I am getting excited about coat hangers. These should give me more room in my wardrobe. My clothes seem to be taking over the bedroom. I have thought about using Charlottes wardrobe but to be honest hers is full as well but with her own clothes... I will bore you with before and after photos when I have got it all organised.

At the weekend I did sort through all her clothes and mine and everything that didn't fit or we dont like went on Ebay... actually it will be going on Ebay pretty soon!


Last night I ate another easter egg.. you have to dont you really? What else can you do with them! In my defense I was studying so needed the chocolate to keep me going.. I managed to finish one chapter and start another one... I feel like I am getting somewhere... yes getting to nowhere fast... lol!! that was so funny.... ha ha ha ha


Ok let me show you some more photos of Kenya as it was truly wonderful!

The first day of the rest of my life

Well I have finally managed to create another blog.... hmmm well how long will it last? Any bets anyone?? No please dont as I may not manage it!!


I did some cycling at the weekend. may not be much to most people but to me it is something to shout about.... And my legs and small bottom felt the pain of it all. I did enjoy it though and that is a major thing. I know I have to lose some weight but sometimes I just dont care.. It is other people that make me feel bad about myself. I know I shouldn't let it affect me but it does and they know it does. What they dont realise is the more they have a go or make a "fun comment" it makes me want to reach for the chocolate so in the end they are not helping at all.


I have started putting things on EBAY. Yes I am clearing out my wardrobe and Charlottes. To be fair she doesn't have alot that I could sell but she did have some Next and M&S bits that went on there. She doesn't wear skirts that often not even to school. I told her that I would go through her room and sell everything... Would try and sell her but wouldn't get alot and then they may want a refund.


My studying is starting again this week as I have my exam (3rd time) in November and I want to pass this time... I really do. I bought myself some new books so it would seem different and be worded different ! Anything is worth a go right... In between studying and Ebaying I want to scrap some more.


Malcolm and I went to Kenya 6 weeks ago and I want to scrap the hundreds of photos I printed off. It comes nowhere close to the number he actually took even when whittled down to the keepers. In between everything else I also have to be a mum to Charlotte, well a better one than I am and a partner girlfriend to Malcolm. How do I fit it all in... I dont know but I guess I do somehow...
Anyway short and sweet but I will try and write every day or if not every other day!
