Wicksteed Park...


Now i know why i usually take the photos..i am so overweight its unreal but i have decided to be fat and happy and not worry about it anymore..sad thing is we went to a boat race and i got asked if i was pregnant..Not Blooming likely i said.Twice was enough i can assure you.
Wicksteed was Fun though we went on all the rides that would hold my weight that is..

Long time no see..

Well the kids holidays came and went with loads of events in between..Boo managed to break her arm by standing on her football to kick the dog..yeah i know but she still hasnt learnt that she is not immortal.She managed to take it off herself too when she got fed up wearing it.
Yes we even went to one of those indoor play places when she was in pot..

Ok so those who know me know im not girly at all but...i was at CTM the other week watching Kirsty Wiseman doing a fabulous demo..photo to follow as soon as Lyn posts me them..lol..and i saw this bag..
I couldnt get it as i was in the dog house..yes i make mistakes too..and paid for it.Lets just say i have been on the wagon now for over a week and although i miss my sauce i do feel better for it.
I went back to CTM to get one and found that oh had already paid for it and put it aside for me..what a fantastic reward!..
I also gave in to temptation and bought a cropadile..something ive been putting off for a while but its sooo easy to use and beats banging holes in the table..lol..wheres the wood filler?..lol.

Anyways the weekend i went to see KW with my teamie Lyn and i must say she is a really lovely lady..Im proud to call her my friend.She bought us girls some little bits and im ashamed to say i didnt think to do the same in return..My head was all over the place the week before.
So Lyn went shopping..lol..3 times round CTM.

Gotta craft kits are another one of my favourites..i made this wall hanging from one of their kits and still have loads left to make a couple of los.

Thats their link for anyone wondering.The kits are fabulous and great value for money and at that price wont break the bank.Im hoping to nab this months as i forgot about the pre order..duh!
So today they go live and im eagerly awaiting..Finger poised on the buy now button...

I broke my glasses yet again..i am typing with one eye shut so i can see clearly..i really need new glasses so im off to get these repaired and get an appointment..

We took the kids and Belle to Hinchingbrooke park at the weekend.It was lovely letting Belle run free but not so lovely hearing the kids arguing all the time over every little thing. It puts you off taking them out as they just dont appreciate anything you do for them.

Beth got a big bike at the weekend.We decided to let her spend last years xmas money on something she could use..a pair of roller skates and a bike..
Chloe had her school report and it was excellent so we treated her to new clothes and a ds game..she chose brain training..

thats about it for now..Boos just jumped off the sofa and hurt herself yet again...bbl

Fed up..you bet!

We had a major leak in the bathroom last week and had to spend out loadsa money to get it all sorted..i still have a hole in the ceiling and one in the bathroom floor but hey ho it will get fixed as Ohs having a few days off next week.
We replaced the back fence and gate this weekend to stop Belle getting out..it was half price so not too expensive.Just meant i had to do two dump runs and still have more to take but ohs getting us a skip and we are going to have another major clear out while hes home.I have wardrobes in boxes waiting to go up in the bedroom..had them a year now and still havent decorated our room.
We are using the old ones that were left in the house..theyre usable but not what i wanted for our room..way too small in my opinion even though i havent that many dressy clothes oh has a lot of shirts..lol..i already binned half of them but he must have at least a hundred or more.
Today Boo is at nursery again and im just doing a bit of hw..going to get my hair cut later with a bit of luck and probably sort out some scrapping to do.Ive had no inspiration lately..been too tired and stressed.

Belle gets her second set of jabs on friday then we can take her out for walks.Shes going potty being cooped up in the yard she needs to be exercised..will get the Boo to do something as well as shes a misery at the moment..cant be helped though she gets wicked heat rash in summer and it really itches no matter what i put on it..going to get her some piriton today and see if that helps.

Mum at Chelsea Flower show


Well this year mum didnt get anywhere with her arrangement..But she will be invited again next year you can bet your shirt on it.

This is my latest lo of Andys Granny meeting Boo for the first time.
Shes a remarkable woman and is still going strong at 90.

















Well tomorrow its the vets for our Belle..shes having a check up and hopefully if she gets the all clear her first jabs. We need to pick up a travel cage for her so she can go everywhere with us..not that i will be driving much with the diesel prices going up like they have..my Billie takes £60 to fill up now and i cant justify driving aimlessly about anymore so it looks like im using shanks pony for a while.
I walked into town yesterday and it nearly killed me thats how unfit i am..im hoping that having Belle will get me out a bit more on my own and exercise more as a family..There are quite a few dog friendly places to go round here.

Our bin is overflowing with Maggots yet again..every summer its the same and i use a bottle of bleach a week in it to try and eradicate them..trouble is we only have fortnightly collections and we are supposed to recycle food waste so i guess we will have to put up and shut up..

The garden is looking nice now weve had some rain ..ok so we have planted broccoli here and there but then why not it looks nice and green..we planted green beans last year but they didnt come to much..

Boos bedroom is nearly finished...it just needs more disney characters on the walls ..i did cinderella yesterday and her coach and the fairy godmother..im working on Belle and the Beast next but i keep running out of black cardstock..well its a good excuse to go to Capture the magic...lol

Today i took the kids to skylarks to get them out the house..we have been in looking after Belle and catching up with hw while the weathers been crap..kids played for an hour before the rain started coming down..and by the looks of it its in for the night.

I hate the rain...its bad for witches you know..
