Sat at mothers, using the wifi.
Just had a lush Sunday Lunch with Rents, Grandparents and the little bro. it was good. Its good to get out the house.
Advent calendar is on the back burner til next christmas, BUT i have started to get the memo board plans into action. Good old Gdad has cut me some boards to get covering.
Still feeling worse than awful, but trying to fight it!
Havent managed to get out and take photos of the christmas lights yet, i WILL take some!!!
Downloading some awesome songs for the ipod, Adele's voice is so beautiful.
Im signing off for pudding.

Children In Need 2010
So its Children in Need tonight.... i have already cried at least 4 times and have only been watching it for an hour!!! in fact i have a tear in my eye now! :( JLS and the kids, beautiful! "your generosity breaks the barriers of disability" what a quote!
I wore pyjamas to work today and we had a cake sale! raised a grand total of ... £83! not considering they only made £17 last year i think thats pretty good going don't you?
It really is an amazing thing and if you haven't donated already i think you should!! www.bbc.co.uk/pudsey or 03457 33 22 33

So what else have i been doing today? well other than eating cupcakes and prancing about in my jammies!
Oh its the eastenders/corrie bit now! how exciting!!! East Street...LOVE IT!
Enough of the children in need goss, i have learnt how to add a picture ^^^ relatively simple - even for me!
Been to my little brothers school tonight for a Punch, Puddings and Presents night = punch was guuuud (on the same lines of mulled wine! nice and cosy!) puddings certainly were...Bread and Butter Pudding made by the cookery club was amazingggg and i wish i had taken more money to buy some!! but i did get some hokey pokey...honeycomb yumminess! (diet is down the pan)
Got home (with a very large food baby) and finished off the reindeer food and christmas cards that i have been putting together for the HOPE Emporium with the playgroup kids, i will be sure to take a photo of them and post it tomorrow! i needed to get them done for the big XMAS LIGHT TURN ON!! :) i will also include a picture of those beautys!
Right thats it for me tonight!
Off to buy my christmas material for the advent calendar mock up tomorrow morning after the gym!

Start of Blog-a-thon!
Yes the common saying for most girls my age is... " i must i must improve my bust.." well for me that is not the case! i MUST i must improve my blogging skills! So im thinking that i need time every day (as often as possible) to write a little bit about me to fill you in on whats going on in the life of me....or life in general!
So... where to start!?
Originally i started this blog to help me blog at work, i work for a small charity based in the small town in which i have grown up check us out... www.hopefamilycentre.org
Management decided that we needed our website updating along with our online social profile, i started in May and have been trying to get us into the 21st century ever since! i have now opened a Facebook, Twitter and now a BLOGGER! i havent set up HOPEs blog yet, i need to work on my own first!
practice makes perfect! (or so i hope)
So i suppose i should fill you in a little bit about me....
Im 21 years old, living in Bromyard, a small town smack bang in the middle of hereford and worcester, its not too shabby, but could be better. im looking forward to the christmas lights being turned on this weekend, i live in the high street so im going to have twinkly lights outside now til new year! i have to say you cant fault our lights! they're traditional and i LOVE them! once i work out how to post a picture i will put one up of my fabulous view! they certainly make me christmassy! (just like the coca cola advert - although i think im the ONLY one who hasn't seen it yet! to be fair it is quite early!) Im blogging not only to learn but for inspiration, i REALLY want to become abit more self reliant, i am working for a charity so money is far from great and i know that i have the arty blood running through my veins but im eager to know what people think of my ideas.
First idea of the Christmas season came to me through a friend on Facebook, her daughter is lactose intolerant BUT is desperate for an advent calendar this christmas, the lactose free chocolate calendars are so expensive so i suggested that she buy one of the ones you fill yourself, this got me thinking... how hard would it be to make an advent calendar??? iv had an idea to make a washing line-esque advent calendar with various coloured (and textured) christmas stockings, with the 25 days of christmas sewn on each one? im thinking some nice cord or rope and some nice ribbons and designs on the 25 different little pockets? soooo what do you think???? all feedback will be appreciated i promise! (even negative)! i think i might mock a few up and see what the girls in the HOPE Emporium think! might make a few pennies for christmas as well as helping out the charity!
i think its fair to say i have rambled enough for today - i know ive probably bored half of you to sleep! but please check in for regular updates on what im doing!
thanks for reading! :)
