Last Friday I took a lovely, leisurely day off work and took my credit card and my mum out shopping. Yes. My mum. I’m 27 years old (jeez!) and I really do like going shopping with my mum, and felt this time I needed to […]
February’s Rainbow Challenge – Seeing red
Here’s a one week progress report on this month’s rainbow challenge. First week’s colour was red. Red is an easy colour for me. It’s my favourite colour, so you’ll be hard pressed to find anything in my house that isn’t red. My sofas are red, […]
Snow on the weekend = fun
Last Saturday evening I was struggling home after watching another brilliant couple of rollerderby bouts. (Which Ron Howard was at! Can you believe that?!) Why struggling? It began snowing! Not just a little, but quite a frigging lot. It didn’t stop overnight and then when […]

Things that are making me happy today
It was almost light on my way to work this morning. Also. It wasn’t quite all the way dark on my way home from work last night. Conclusion? I really, really bloody hate winter. It’s nearly over! (Also, looking at this photo makes me happy. […]
January’s Alphabet Soup is running a little behind
Remember I said that I’d post weekly updates on how my alphabet soup photo challenge was going? Well, I’m a few weeks late on this, aren’t I? Ooops! Also, I’m running behind in the alphabet. This challenge is proving harder than I had initially thought […]
