Had to be Scrapped

I knew that I had to scrapbook the images of the guys in dress uniform actually the term is undress uniform, not sure why but I do know they are oh so smart.

My man, Chris, he will soon have lost 4 stone in weight and he looks amazing for it don’t you think?

Uncle and Nephew

I simply love these two guys, Chris and our Nephew Craig.

Today was a tough day when we said goodbye to Ian, Chris’s Brother and Craig's Dad. he would have been so proud of his family today.

The Good Life

Men work hard, play hard and many of them sleep hard too ha ha!

The Good Life by Just Inklined says it all. My man could sleep on a washing line if he had to, each night I make a cup of tea and two minutes after placing it down by his side he’s asleep, that cuppa is like a magic potion.

I even got out the Pan Pastels to do a bit of background blending on this one. Coloured with Copic markers and chalk pencils and I added the string for that rustic gardening theme.

love this one for those hard to do men's cards.

End of Summer

 

No! I hear you cry, surely it can’t be. three whole days of sunshine can’t be our lot this year.

No, End of Summer is a sweet day dreamy image from Mo’s Digital Pencil and I’m hoping this is only the beginning of ours.

Suitable attire.

I have really struggled with a whacking cough and sore throat but today I had to be up out of bed bright and early, both Chris and my nephew Craig joined the cycle to work scheme and their new bikes were ready to collect, I dropped them off to pick them up and they rode them back home. This is a brilliant way to start cycling as it makes it affordable to get a decent bike without breaking the bank, Ask your employer if they do the scheme.

I then came home showered and got ready to start shopping for clothing suitable for the funeral on Thursday. Chris will be wearing full ceremonial Fire Brigade uniform so leggings for me just wouldn’t cut the mustard. I settled on a long black Skirt and a shrug and I have a nice cream top to go with them. Shoes are always a problem for me, the number one thing has to me comfort as I have psoriatic arthritis and pain in my feet are a biggie.

I’ll have to pray for decent weather as I could only get open toed sandals', little pump shoes just wasn't happening.

So the skirt

I also had my hair highlighted as I had a bit too much salt and pepper going on, not sure if I’m keen on it, a bit too much blonde going on but Chris likes it so I’ll keep it for a while until I see if it grows on me.

I was hoping to get out on my bike this weekend but my head cold and cough don’t need further help so I’ll take each day as it comes.

Daddy’s need cuddles too!

I think this has been proved over and over this week, just because men are meant to be strong it doesn’t mean they don't need a cuddle too.
