A Nice Day

I had a lovely day today cropping with friends and apart from running out of tea bags we had a great day lol. I didn't really do any cropping as I was busy sorting out my PTI stash and glittering up a fairy wallhanger that I bought for my craft room. I saw it in my local florists and when I read the saying I thought I just have to have that - it is just sooooo me.

I've been busy tonight cooking dinner and preparing Laura's stuff for her signing competition tomorrow. We have to pick up some of the other girls at 7.45am so there won't be any time to do it tomorrow. It's being held at the SAS Radisson in Glasgow and we will probably be there all day so I'll need to be prepared with lots of food and drink to see us through.

I'm now going to have some ME time and do a bit of blogsurfing.

Till tomorrow.

Poor Jim

After an endless round of Doctors, hospitals and specialists we are no nearer to finding a solution to Jim's illness. He did seem to be making some progress in the latter part of last year but has steadily got worse again. The pain in his leg is causing him real problems with walking and standing and he is still having severe headaches on a daily basis. No one really seems to know what has happened to him or how to solve it and he is quite frustrated with everything. He is desperate to get back to work but he is just not fit enough.

At the weekend, I popped into 02 to change my phone. I am now the proud owner of a Blackberry Torch which is a bit fancier than my old Blackberry. Let's hope that I can find out how to work it.

Tonight Laura and I "performed" at a concert with our Signing group (Signs & Wonders). I'm sure I must be the "wonder" bit of the group as I'm sure people must be "wondering" what that old woman is doing up on stage trying to do sign language to music lol :) I'm learning as we go along but it is much more difficult than it looks. The group had eight songs to perform but I was only involved in five and that was more than enough to concentrate on. When the younger girls do it, it is sooooo beautiful to watch. Anyway I don't care what anyone may think, I enjoy it and Laura and I have a laugh about her daft mothers mistakes. I am so past being worried about what people think anyway that I really don't care.

I had actually double booked myself tonight as I had also arranged to go to the cinema with my friends Cathy and Agnieska. We had planned to see The King's Speech but I had to pull out when I remembered I had something else on (call it a senior moment) however, I'm hoping to go later this week with another friend.

Later peeps.

What a Night!

I've just got home from work after battling torrential rain and winds and I am thankful to be home safely. Several trees have been blown down locally and it is definitely not a night to be out. So I am sitting here all cosy in front of the fire with my slippers on and have no plans to go anywhere.

I have been re-arranging my craft room this week so that I can crop a bit more at home since it it still dark in the evenings. It is still in a state of disarray but I'm working on it lol.

PTI Bloghop

Thanks to everyone who commented on Jacob's card. I really enjoyed participating in the PTI bloghop and I hope to visit some more blogs soon. It is fantastic fun to check out everyone's blog and see just how creative they are.

Coming to a layout soon is this photograph as it is one of my favourites. It was taken on our recent holiday on the island of St. Lucia and you can clearly see the twin peaks (the Pitons) in the background.

Catch ya later.
