Feeling a bit lost...

Hello lovely bloggers,

Here we are on the hottest day of the year so far and half way through the year. As you will have seen, I haven't blogged for a while. I'm feeling a bit lost at the moment, there's lots going on in my life right now, it's not all really bad but some of it is upsetting. I'm sure I will be fine, just need some time to sort myself out but I think I will have a blogging break for now.

I have still been looking for highlights most weeks and I had some written down, that I didn't get round to writing up. These included taking my niece and nephews to Paultons Park, going to the Harry Potter Tour, my cousin giving birth to twin girls, a couple of Birthday parties, going on holiday, seeing a band and meeting up with old friends and having a really good laugh!

I really hope to come back to blogging at some point this year and I will try and keep up with all your blogs too.

I hope you all have a lovely summer, whatever you're doing!

Happy New Year!

I hope you've all had a lovely Christmas, our's was fun and the children had lots of presents! Unfortunately, I didn't finish the crocheted Minions in time for Christmas but the children had Minions bought for them. I will add some photos once they are finished.

On Monday before Christmas it was really windy and we could hear the wind blowing in my parent's chimney so I told my niece that it was Santa's Elves making sure the chimneys were clear ready for Santa! She liked that story and was very excited!

Last Saturday was my nephew's 3rd birthday, we were supposed to be seeing him but they had a stomach bug and now it's passed to everyone except three of us. I'm really hoping I don't get it!

It's almost a new year and I'm not really into making New Years resolutions but I hope next year will be better than this one. Here are my hopes for 2014:

• To find a job or make headway to pursuing a new career
• To meet new people and see more of old friends
• To do more crocheting and finally finish my Granny Stripe blanket
• To carry on blogging and join in with '52 Weeks of Happy'

So, as this year draws to a close I wish you all health, happiness, love and laughter! See you in 2014!

Something for the weekend

This weekend I'm looking forward to:

• Partying! - Attending a 21st birthday party on Saturday night. If you read my last 'Something for the weekend' post, you may remember that I was partying that weekend too. My social life isn't usually this busy!
• Celebrating my nan's 80th birthday by visiting her tomorrow with cards and presents.
• Packing - Although I won't be packing until Thursday, I put this as I will be sorting and washing my stuff ready for packing for my holiday. Again, if you read my last 'Something for the weekend' post, you will notice I have used the same photo of my suitcase. This is because I didn't want to get it out of the cupboard again to photo it!

Have a great weekend!

Something for the weekend

I got this 'Something for the weekend' idea from the LuluLoves blog. I will put up a few things that I'm looking forward to doing at the weekend. I'm not sure how often I will do this type of blog, maybe once a month.

So, this weekend I'm looking forward to:

• Partying! - Attending an 18th birthday party on Saturday night.
• Flicking through my new copy of Essentials, I got a subscription for Christmas and have been reading it for a few years now.
• Packing for my holiday next week, I'm not looking forward to the packing but I am looking forward to the holiday! I'm going to help with the children and we are going to Great Yarmouth. I hope we get to the beach at least one day, I would like to look for sea glass as I had never heard of it before last week when I read about it here, here and here.

After my last post and not being able to move down the post properly when there are more than a few photos, I've downloaded the app Blogsy. The photos in last post weren't positioned how I would have liked and so far Blogsy seems very good.

Whatever you have planned for the weekend, I hope you enjoy it!

Such a busy week...

This week has been so busy and I haven't had time to write until now. I have been helping out with my niece and nephew and the new arrival for most of the week. We had my nieces birthday party here yesterday so it was a long day but I didn't get a chance to take any photos of the party.

Although it was a busy week I did manage to get to hobbycraft and buy some wool and it was on a 3 for 2 offer. I haven't been able to do any crocheting this week but I'm hoping to do a granny stripe blanket like this one from BunnyMummy and I have ten colours of wool.

 

I will post an update when I get started!

I have enjoyed seeing the garden come to life this week, with the arrival of lots of tulips and the flowers blooming in the rockery. I bought some flowers from the garden centre on Friday and I'm hoping to pot them up later on today. I will try to remember to take some photos to put into my next post.

I have got another busy week coming up with visiting friends, helping with the children and we are going to Legoland tomorrow for my nieces birthday!
