Goodbye November...

Well Hello,,,

It's been awhile again, so much going on at home right now...

Can't believe November is over, feel I like I blinked and missed it really.

It's been an eventful month to say the least.

Our office at work had a flood, which was a nightmare.

I have been living on coffee lately...both my lovely Gusto and I treated myself to Beanies Xmas selection...

Pickle took part in her first Gymnastic Comp on Saturday and got 3rd in the individual floor.

One very proud mum!

Mittens is getting more and more cheeky...

I am really trying to get into the festive spirit but with everything that's going on in my life right now I am not doing very well.  Which is most unlike me.

But I have managed to make Christmas Puddings and Mincemeat.

The slow cooker has returned!

So as we start the festive season..
Here is my first make of the season...

And it's been a year since losing my close friend, and so it makes this month even tougher.

Well bring on December and all that comes with it....come forth and know me better man.!

Love Mxx

It's Friday!

Good Afternoon,

Well it's Friday! and it's suddenly gone very dark here in Sussex, UK, we had a snow shower yesterday evening but it only lasted a couple of minutes.

I thought I would share some pictures with you that I have managed to download from my Camera Yay!

Here is some pictures of the strange sky's we keep having...

Mittens just keeps getting more and more crazy, I think it's time to let her out this weekend!

I have been crocheting granny squares for the Beware make a Square - for Meningitis Now, here is my latest one!

Hubbie brought me some lovely spring tulips the other day, they made the lounge look more colourful. I am still waiting for daffodil's to arrive in the shops here:((

So shopping is order for tomorrow, I never enjoy the supermarket experience, and I am looking forward to reading the latest Country Living magazine, I enjoyed last months, as it had about Lewes in it, which is close to me and it's such a lovely town to roam around and enjoy variety of independent shops.

I really must get reacquainted with this...

I will keep dreaming of my own craft room,.... maybe one day!

Remember to stay warm this weekend and enjoy it whatever your doing!

Thanks for visiting my blog.

Weird Weather Week!

Good Afternoon,

Well it's been a strange weather week here, we have had rain, hail, sun and even some snow, much to pickles happiness!

At the moment the sun is shining which is so lovely, it makes my office glow!, Here is the view from my office

I am lucky to work in a very old building dating back to around 1800's, it been a workhouse, post office, picture framers and more in between!

As such the building has some lovely old beams and wonky walls and floors, that could probably tell a million stories

Here is the sky at the moment!

On Friday last week, we had Hail storms

And on Tuesday morning we woke up to snow!

Here are some pictures of our Common Pond

The school walk was very exciting for the children making tiny snowballs and playing the in the snow!, it did take slightly longer to get there and all hands where cold on arrival:))

by lunchtime however it was gone, and the rain had arrived.

I really enjoy all seasons each with their own special moments.

I have several projects on the WIP list, squares for a blanket, a cape for me, crochet hand warmers for hubbie, and the patchwork cushion is still waiting to be sewed together, there are just not enough hours in the day!

Take care
