Decisions Decisions

Well Ive been debating about whether to continue this blog, i had not told anyone i was doing it to start with but i have been persuaded to carry on. I think in the long run i will enjoy doing it, its a bit nerve wracking to start off with so here goes.

The last week or so has been pretty busy, we have been filling holes in the walls in ML room now the carpet is down, i know we always end up doing things arse backwards even though we say we will do it properly every time.

Well i ordered my telephoto lens for my camera on Feb 2nd and I'm still waiting its soo frustrating, i just want to start using it NOW. I'm so impatient sometimes i want things like yesterday as many people who know me will tell you. After numerous calls to the company they have taken my name and number and have said they will get back to me and of course they haven't. I finally managed to speak to someone who knew what they were doing and from Friday 13th i now have to wait a further 7-14 days.


One of my other passions is Freecycle for people who may of not heard about it, it is a recycling group online where people can offer there things to other for free to stop them going in the landfill, all you have to do is email the person with the particular item and ask for it and then they decide and you just go and fetch it.

I have had some fantastic things from there including a bunk bed with a single bed at the top and a sofa at the bottom which converts to a double bed too, Quarry tiles, curtains, tv unit, tripod for my cam.
Its a great way of getting rid of stuff you don't want or updating your old things.
I have got rid of many things on there myself too and i have met some lovely people through it too.


We have decided we really must push on with the decorating it has come to a halt and been like that for about 4 weeks now. We have to decide what kind of paper we are going to use for the living room but if you knew my husband and i, we are not good at decision making it is just sooo hard. We will start our search for wallpaper this week sometime hopefully.

We had visitors on Thursday namely my mum and sister, my mum had been visiting some friends in Inverness, her flight had been delayed 8 hours,she couldnt fly to Manchester so ended up flying to Birmingham airport instead which is nearer to us. They arrived a mum smelling of incense sticks, a desperate dog wanted to strectch his legs and a frazzled sister who had been at the sirport since about 8am. They stayed the night then continued there journey home on Friday back to North Wales.


We have had some lovely weather so i have been doing gardening just mainly weeding and ML has wanted to help also even though i brought her bike out for her to play. I ended up getting her bucket and spade from the shed and so she helped weeding, along with finding worms and a frog much to her delight, her face was a picture. I also managed to get JR off the sofa too, to lend a helping hand which was a nice change so it was a real family affair doing the garden.
