Small update.

And finally we start to see almost all of Sammy's face!!! It's still a long long way from being completed and I can see it not being finished by the end of this month so it's probably going back into rotation until March so I can work on my cabin for a while. But at least it's finally back on out TV screens :-)

One day!!!

I came across this story, isn't it beautiful? Our world would be such a better place if we all had the heart and took the time to do something that didn't benefit ourselves every now and again. Sometimes small things can make a big difference to someone of something.

Lazy sunday

So today I had a good few hours to work on my stitching, firstly while watching the footie then the grande tour and later while I watched a film with hubby. I'm itching to get this completed but it can be such a chore with all the greys it can feel like I'm getting nowhere fast. It's times like that I put it back into rotation but I'm really trying not to this time I'd love to get it completed so very much this year :-)

Last weekend

So this is the last weekend after Christmas I always say let's try empty the cupards and get healthier. Sometimes it lasts sometimes it doesn't. Been thinking of the best way to tackle it this time around with my husband working shifts and mine never staying the same week to week. Also still fighting off this flu virus it's going to be hard work trying to get back into exercise but I'm going to try. 

On the same note, eating healthier isn't all bad apart from all the prep that goes into it and spending much longer in the kitchen but this is something I want to try and do by myself before I pay someone to help. I made this for food tonight and it was yummy I love lamb so it was a very nice treat :-)

Rainy rainy day


All it's done today is rain, it's been such a miserable 12th day a real reminder that the sparkly fun time of Christmas is really over. I braced it and went out for a while but have to say I was glad to get home, summer can't come fast enough!!!!!! I have to be honest I spent most of the afternoon playing Harry potter on the ps4 but when you still aren't well and don't have a voice I think that's ok :-)

Quiet as a mouse!!!


Ive been struggling for what feels like weeks rather than days with this flu virus and not getting any sleep hasn't helped either with all the coughing once I lay down, even tried the Vicks on my feet, didn't help. So I got up this morning with no voice, can't say my lot are very sympathetic mind you they seem to be enjoying the peace and quiet!!! All I can say is it's going to feel like a very long shift in work tonight.

So on that note the exercise plan hasn't started as I do not have the energy to even want to start thinking about it feeling as completely crappy as I do, but on the other hand I have gone back to the healthier cooking as Christmas is over and I now have normal shifts and I have more time. Will weigh tomorrow and see how I do this week :-)

Stitchy update



After spending the day cwtched up on the sofa with my blanket and a box of tissues, I decided to try work on my supernatural boys tonight once my eyes stopped running I didn't do very much but I was amazed how much I did manage to do with how crappy I am feeling at the moment. So here is where I am up to. Really hoping it will be my first finish of 2017.

Always a sad day


Don't you just had getting out of bed the day after you take down your decorations? You know you are going to go downstairs and Christmas is gone for at least 10/11 months?? With almost everyone back at work today it just seemed the best thing to do. Not that I had much time off over Christmas to enjoy them!!! I'm dreading my shift this evening since I've fought this flu thing hubby and the kids have had but I guess it has to be done!!!

Running free over rainbow bridge

I still miss you so much, can't believe how long it's been already. We still talk about you all the time especially when we see bubbles and remember how bonkers they made you, or see a bee and remember how you used to eat them!!! When it rains and you refused to go out!! How grumpy you where when you got told off :-) there are so many stories we remember. Love you always Budd xxxxx

Happy new year!!!!

The last few years have had their ups and downs with many losses and heartbreaks but also many smiles and giggles. I'm not planing on suggesting this year is going to be any better or worse than any other year, all we can do us try to make the best of it we can xx
