Monday Monday......

I can't believe its monday already, this time last week we were counting down the days for the big man's arrival, now we are all overfed, over drank (if there is such a word..lol) and have more stuff to try and find a place for...in our craft rooms that is! I didnt stuff myself too much but glad we were doing stuff on the house so at least i was burning off what i ate and not sitting around, making my hips go that other bit bigger!

so in a few days time we will be ringing in the new year, and wondering what 09 will bring us, hopefully everything we all want! for me i just wish for our house to be finished and moved into it and to get back to normality and living as a couple again. I'm not going to moan too much about that though cos i am enjoying the process at the mo. we are nearly there so must stay positive!

its weird to think that in two days time we will be entering a new year and then everyone will start counting down the days to next xmas lol!

So Much.......

for keeping my blog updated every day...lol. ill update ye on what happened since my last post, very quickly.

well we went on our xmas party nite out and had a ball, well that was as soon as we had finished the meal which was 11.40pm. the meal was a disaster we waited an hour for our starters and the whole thing was ok. we eventually made our way to a late bar and had a great nite, dancing and partying the nite away, although there were some shots thrown in there too from what i can remember...lol. i have pics taken but they are on a disposable camera so not sure that i will be able to upload them. prob lucky i wont bet they are disastrous, as they were all taken near the end of the nite, so lots of red eyes and mascara running. lol.

finally got all the xmas cards made and sent off, had a lovely xmas day was up at 7am and opening my pressies like an excited kid, OH bought me a laptop, which i was totally not expecting and a game for it, got lots of other lovely pressies from peeps and a fab bottle of hypnose perfume from my best pal its fab! stephens day was very quiet OH did a bit of work at the site and then we chilled in the evening, my mam made us another xmas dinner today and it was yummy!

today was helping OH up at the site, i learned how to slab walls upstairs, insulate them and use a cordless drill (that was a site to behold) but i was determined not to let a silly little battery powered drill outdo me and after lots of cursing and giving out i mastered the art of drilling screws into the slabs to hold them against the wall. its a great feeling when you build or make something and i really enjoyed it plus we saw some progress and every little progress means we are a step closer to moving into our new house. i just cant wait to move in but will be so proud that i was part of the building process, its great!!!

thats it really, oh we went shopping today and bought new xmas baubles, they are handcrafted glass ones, clear, for the new xmas tree for the new house. gonna go buy the tree tomorrow and some purple baubles aswell, we are getting rid of our gold and red ones, they are well past there sell by date. lol.

thats it, will promise at least to update this every second day!

I Cant Believe....

It's been over a month since i posted on my blog!!! Jees the time flies, I can't believe its only 7 days to christmas im getting so excited!!!! although i still have to finish some cards and get presents sorted and wrapped!

lots has happened over the last month, i finished up my card making classes and got great feedback from them, so hopefully something might turn up for the new year! our house is coming along in leaps and bounds, but still not quickly enough for me! hopefully we should be in next march which really is only 3 mths away and if they go as quick as the last month did then ill be delighted!! lol.

weather is pretty miserable here damp and wet, our adopted cat has tackled the xmas tree and has taken a fancy to the beads and keeps pulling them off, so that needs to be sorted out, was wondering when he would start fiddling with it.

thats all the news i have for the mo.
