Potpourri Gardener

My Husband simply loves Sage and Onion Stuffing…. yuck. I think it’s the sage that I dislike but I’m not sure, at Christmas time he cons both My Mam and his own into making him a bowl of the stuff and he eats them all to himself. Christmas gone he even made some himself and of course had to have a practice make but we did have problems buying extra sage to add to the mix.

My Mam is an avid gardener and on Monday produced a large potted sage plant for him to dry his own. There is no escape I tell ya.

This newly released image from Just Inklined is right up my Mams street, Potpourri Gardener.

Souvenir Digital Scrapbooking

Well it was a funny sort of night last night, I wanted to get a card made but after making 2 dinners and two lots of washing up it just wasn't going to happen.

I then remembered a picture that I had wanted to share with you all.

Jack is such a funny fellow now, he even knows how to kid you into things and knows how to have fun winding you up, little imp that he is.

This is the fun loving little man on his holidays have fun on the rides.

His smile is infectious no?

So I have started trying a little exercise each morning, nothing major just enough to raise the heart rate a little, so every morning I have a date with the Wii fit, aerobics step, hula hoop which should be hidden from the public eye ha ha, and then a little jog. Today however it didn't happen, nothing was working on me this morning so I won't miss out, I intend doing it tonight when I get in from work.

Slugger Sam

Seeming as though I’m in a sporting keep fit mode I thought I’d share Slugger Sam with you.

Slugger Sam is a fun character from Dr Digi’s

Coloured with Promakers by Letraset papers are Stampin Up and the Ribbon is from Ribbon Carousel 

A Night Out

Well I had a night off on Sunday and my husband took me out, not far just to a place we used to go every Sunday night, I wasn’t drinking unless you can count 2 diet cokes and a J20.

It was lovely to see old friends as it has been 4 years since I had a proper night out, you sort of get stuck in a rut, forgetting what fun it is to socialise, some of our old friends aren’t with us now and it was strange going in to our local and not seeing them sit in their normal seats, you know a week in week out thing.

Another thing that was strange for me was I wore an on the knee skirt without tights or leggings, being a psoriasis sufferer my legs were always in a terrible state so skirts were generally a no no, since being on my injections most of my psoriasis on my legs has cleared up, yes I have loads of scaring but 90% better and I felt confident enough to show a leg.

We even had a game of bingo ha ha, not so funny really as Chris won a line and a full house, I was surprised they didn’t kick us out. I may even try to get back into the habit of having the occasional night out again, I was wished Happy New Year and Happy Birthday, I had to ask which one as it had been so long.

So i thought I would leave you with my tidy ribbons, much tidier than they were, I am still sorting and adding some of my favourite and most expensive ones onto something special to store them and hopefully I’ll be able to show you that real soon.

Not colour co-ordinated but type co-ordinated

my others are on spools in colour gradients so I think I’m getting there.
