Well here we are folks...and just in time for Christmas...I have loved the build up to it, as I always do...all the buying and making chrimbo pressies...wrapping them up and decorating the house with vintage and modern decs.
I bought these boots, just in time for more snow to arrive!
....and don't you just love them?
....and don't you just love them?
When I saw them...I squeeled and just had to buy a pair, as they are just like Converse's, but in wellie form! with real laces....mine are still a bit new at the moment...but it won't be long before they have dirtied up a bit!
Don't you just love them :o)

Is totally delightful!
My lovely Mum invited me along to one of her outings that she arranges for the WHSmiths retirement group...my Dad used to work for them and my Mum has organised the outings for this group for about 25 years now...
On the way we took in some wonderful sights.
....can you please bring me....
This lovely Fossil Key-Per Across Body Bag...I sooo love the graphics on this!
So you can imagine that my birthday, is shared with thoughts of him and I couldn't possibly do this post without mentioning him. I lit a candle for him, as indeed I do every year. He was a great inspiration to me, and you will often find me chatting away to him, as I always feel that he is with me....and more so in this house, as I often can smell the tobacco that he used to smoke on our landing :)....
Freddy always buys me roses for my birthday, as you know how much I love them....and this year he chose these lovely pink ones...Oh I just so love pink, Rosie also bought me a little rose plant...which I adore!
OMG! Blighty has never had it sooo bad!
OK, so you hardy gals, in colder countries are probably thinking! Yeah! so! :)
But honestly us Brits have not seen weather this bad for aparently 45 years....I don't remember it this bad in my lifetime! Anyway!
Phew! look at this weather! I have been mooching around my garden looking for bones that I have hidden last week....and I just cannot find them in all this Freeeeeezing cold white stuff!
sniff sniff! Na, nuffing there!
aha! whats that moving over there!
Right from laying them, with my Dad, as a little girl on my Nanna's grave to my lovely hubby sending me 24 red roses the day after we first met!
....and it wasnt until the other day when I decided to look through our pile of quilts that I realised how far the addiction had got...you see I decided to sell some (quilts) on a well known auction site to raise some money for chrimbo!
When I came across these two below a crocheted one and this pretty duck edged blue durham quilt...these had been lost and tucked away in amoungst all the others...I was thrilled to find them!
I was watching Kirstie's Homemade Home on catchup last night and to my surprise, I watched and drooled over her lovely new addition that she found at the lincolnshire Antiques Fair.....
For it was our Holivan in miniture! I am sitting here tapping my fingers on the table! Waiting! and I am still waiting for that phone call! for I am sure she bought it with me in mind!....I know! Perhaps she is saving it for me until Christmas!
Yes it will be a lovely surprise!....I'll wait a little longer then Kirstie, :)

Hello gals! today I had a brainwave! I know! I know! It doesn't happen that often! lol....but as I have left the garden to overgrow quite a bit lately! I need a gardener! Badly! I decided to tie the BIG WEED type thingy in the front garden up with some HAPPY ribbon!
Why oh Why I hear you holla....because this contraption does look rather SAD!
I am still here and I want to write about so many things....but I just have no energy or want!...Yeah I am contradicting myself there a bit aren't I...but that is the way I am feeling...I am in an 'any how' mood...and it has been going on for a few months now!
Hello gals, I have been a busy bee lately and havn't had any time to sit still ! so my apologies!...for not blogging sooner!....but before I explain all! I just wanted to show you my latest blog design (above) for Violet Adelaide....Yes yes! I am still designing blogs and websites! so if your are interested!...you know! to have a little treat, before the christmas rush and all that :)....then CLICK HERE to get your order in, so that you can be done and dusted before the celebrations!
I have also listed card scrapbooking packs - perfect for those little stocking fillers. There are plenty to choose from and are such a delight to create.
Thanks to you all for wishing my lovely Mum Good Luck in my last post....she was very brave and went ahead with the operation, the doctor told her, that she would be able to use the palm of her left hand still, so that made her mind up!
I am off this weekend to visit my Mum, she needs an operation and I will be traveling the 20 miles to London to take her there.
I will be travelling in my little car...Hopefully if hubby hasn't parked it in the middle of the road and it hasn't been smashed to pieces! LOL! (see post a little way down!)
I shall be leaving my poor hubby to do the washing up and stuff, but bless, he can't do much these days, so I am sure Rosie will help him :)
Its our anniversary on sunday...we have been married 23 years, so we promised ourselves that we will celebrate next week sometime, once I know my Mum is ok :)
No doubt we will be drinking plenty of tea to help Mum get over the op...its only a lump on her finger, but she is 80, although you would never believe it! but we are very worried about it because she has had dislocated hips from birth and she uses her arms all the time, so if there are any complications, we will have to see if it will be worth her while to have the op, but I'll let you all know when I get back :)
Speak soon gals,
Do you think this car has been parked by a person that holds a current driving licence?
or do you think it has been dumped by thieves who have just done a Bank Job!
LOL!
No! this is our car, that has been parked by my hubby who owns a current driving licence! he parked this in the evening and when Rosie and I went out in the morning! we couldn't stop laughing...so we had to take piccies!
...And mores the worry! when we asked him to tell us what was wrong in the picture! he couldn't understand the problem and why we were laughing so much! Eek!
Now we have proof why womens car insurance is much cheaper than mens!
SIMPLES!
