Don't know

TO be honest i don't know why i'm putting this because i'm almost positive i don't have any readers but.... i have been wanting to blog for the last few days but i have no  way of uploading pictures onto the pc at the moment. i've been so lucky to have been given some great clothes over the last few days which are of very good quality and from places i cant afford!!! I cant wait to start introducing them to my wardrobe!!! But i do need to clean out my existing wardrobe... car boot time soon every penny counts!

Jewellery........

I hand made some jewellery in my spare time over the last few days... not great but i was pleased with the result. the first one is a necklace the photo definately doesnt do it justice. It makes a plain tshirt look great.

necklace with a few sequins stiched on. Dramatic piece great to go with plain items or prints.

front of bracelet

back of bracelet. fastens with popper buttons.   
so i plan to make some more peices over the next few days. it keeps my creative mind active which i must admit has lay dorment for a while.

i wasnt going to but.... i couldnt resist. Thought id share a picture of my son with the world!!

Pink...



im trying to be a bit more girly lately. my wardrobe mainly consists of black so a splash of colour wouldnt do me any harm!! Anyway i found the sally hansen nail varnish in the pound shop and was excited by how bright the colour is. I painted my nails with it last weekend and suprisingly its hardly chipped, i have never known a nail varnish to last so well.. i may have to go back and consider the entire range!! Looking after my one year old son i tend to be washing my hands regularly and doing alot of activities so finding this nail varnish has put a smile on my face!! I also came across these thermal gloves in the sale in peacocks for only £4, with the snow falling and the wind being icy cold i need a good pair to stop my hands from dropping off, both practical and in my opinion quite attractive for such a useful accessory!
i am planning on making some more jewellery later this evening when i get a few seconds free so i will post some pictures later.
Thanks xx

London tomorrow.....hopefully

Been planning on a much needed day out to london for a while. But i have a severe chest infection which ended up with me needing an inhaler, steroids and antibiotics. That was yesterday, now the steroids have kicked in and the inhaler is keeping my breathing ok so fingers crossed tomorrow will be possible. I love traveling on the train, the journey brings a certain anticipation that only traveling on the train brings. Maybe thats just me.... i dont know. I know that im  going to need a large bag tomorrow so that i can carry snacks for my partner, son and me aswell as medication and as always the trusty "just in case" items that yu will always find me carrying around. I always struggle to take a small bag with me where ever i go. Anyway i decided that my diesel fuel for life bag is perfect for the job!!

My Kindle will definately be accompanying me on the train, great present from my partner. I wasnt sure about kindles before i recieved one because i have to admit i do love the feel of a good book, turning the pages and looking at how much is left. But the kindle is great and i hardly put it down!! Especially as there always seems to be a sale on amazon for kindle books and you can go online and get a whole load of free books. my only grudge is that the kindle doesnt display page numbers only percentage. I know its because you can change font size so pages will be different sizes but still..... a little frustrating ( but i suppose im nit picking)
 lately its been freeeeeezing and with a chest infection i need to layer up.. heavily. I will definately be wearing a knitted collar i recently purchased from sainsburys in the sale (£3).
And i will be wearing my thick river island scarf with a hood that i purchased a few years ago!! oh and my leopard print gloves
fingers crossed it all goes to plan
