Snow Photo Project - Day 5

Day 5 : In the back garden

Snow Photo Project

I started this on facebook, and then I realised that my blog is a perfect way to do it! although I have already done 5 days so far.

What I am doing is taking a photo of the snow each day that it is around, a different photo each day...its pretty nice to see how creative you can be!

I will upload the previous 4 days, then I shall blog you a new photo each day :)

Day 4: A fond tree of mine

Day 3: My neighbours back garden

Day 2: Trees in the park behind our house

Day 1: When it first started snowing in our street

I know I did it back to front....although keep posted if you like my photos :)

Time Is Moving Fast

This year has really flown in...I cant believe I am in Week 9 of my semester at uni, I can't believe its only 33days until Christmas, and 8 days until I put my wee Christmas tree up (Yes I put mine up on the 1st). Although I feel like I am coping with university coursework pretty good, although not received many marks yet, so I don't know where I am on the scheme of things. I have wrapped all my Christmas presents so far that I have (this doesn't involve my Christmas swap though :-P). Yeah I can say my routine has improved a bit for sure...

Now all I gotta do is wait for snow!!

Here is a photograph of all the presents I have wrapped, excuse the bad quality as I took it with my phone camera :)

All The Things That Sparkle

Andy and I went into Motherwell yesterday to do some Christmas shopping, since this is our first house together, we didn't have a Christmas tree. Shopping in Wilkinsons, I see all the pretty decorations in their array of colours. I have my heart set on purple and gold, I don't know why these colours appeal to me....maybe because my favourite colour is purple, not sure. I pick out all the things I want from coordinated tinsel and beads and picked out a 6ft green tree...even after saying "No no, we will have a small tree".

Since my money budget is really tight, Andy was a gem and bought us our first ever Christmas things. I really can't wait for December to arrive so that we can put up our decorations, although I may follow the 12days before Christmas rule as that is what Andy is used to...We shall see!

I do worry how I shall buy everyone a gift, it may only be a small thoughtful things this year....

....its the thought that counts.

Bonfire Night: Remembering Mum

It has been 7 years today since my Mum died, although I still long for her and I still feel sad....I am getting better with time.I think tonight has been the first time properly since Mum died, that I have went out my way to watch fireworks.

And I enjoyed it

I just want my sister Lisa to know that I love her very much, and that I am greatful she is there for me when I need her as she is the only one who really understands how I feel about Mum being gone *hugs for Lisa*
