Days 145 - 152

Another space for catch up.  Hopefully a long bank holiday might help me get my act together!

Today - Day 152 - the prompt is 'Bargain' and here are my 20% for the Jubilee new white trousers - all ready for my red white and blue patriotic look for Sunday.


Day 151 - Groceries - well the cupboard is full, so here are some of them.


Many of our usual favourites - Marmite, chick peas, curry and home made marmalade - yum!

Day 150 - Messy - no contest - DD's room is a hole.  Oh the shame!! After I took this photo I did make some inroads into the clothes piles - amazingly it was tidy very recently, but descends back into chaos the minute I walk out of the door!  I try to stay out of it, but every so often I can't stand it any longer and dive back in for an epic clean.



Day 149 - tools

I'm not a big tool user - DH has a tool box, but I couldn't be bothered to get it out to photograph.  I do use some scrapbooking tools, but I decided to photograph the tools I use most often - kitchen utensils, in a basket I have had for years and love still.



Day 148 - unfinished - this is the current sock project - love love love this clever wool that makes it look like Fair Isle.  Sadly they are not for me.



Day 147 - Cleanliness

Cool shower gel - aimed at making small son more enthusiastic about showers.  He'll spend hours in the bath but sometimes you just need to wash quickly.



Day 146 - boring - don't think so - today was too exciting!  I've wanted this pendant for ages, and I got my birthday money together and a couple of friends chipped in too, and today we bought it.  I love getting something I've saved up for and had to wait for, then I know I really wanted it.



Day 145 - was my birthday, and the prompt was 'Soft'

DH took me to 'The Breakfast Club' for lunch, and my pancakes were gloriously soft and gooey with maple syrup - delicious.

Days 140 - 144

Day 144 - Artificial



A couple of random gerberas that lived tucked into my filing tray - not sure why, they've been there for years,  but they do brighten the place up!

Day 143 - Restful

What a beautiful day it was!  I went to Broadcasting House with DS1 to hear a Radio play being recorded and when we came out, there was the spire of All Soul's Langham Place soaring against a perfect evening sky.



Day 142 - Ornament



Used in the verb sense! My 'go to' jewellery - none of it valuable, but it goes with most of the things I wear (see below!)


Day 141 - Off piste!



Today my lovely goddaughter was christened so I'm sticking with a photo of my very good friend Ali with her at the after party lunch.  So sweet and she behaved so beautifully!



Day 140 - Interior



The inside of my wardrobe - and the colours more or less mirror my scrapbooking! lol

Day 139 and all that come before (eventually)

Stuff it!  I've got all behind lately and need to have a grand sort out of photos to catch up on this project, so I'm going to post today's picture and worry about the rest later - otherwise I'm never going to get to grips with it - procrastination only  makes it worse!

So today - Flower!


from my garden - these flowers are so weird, sometimes they come up pink, sometimes purple, but as they re-see themselves every year I'm not too bothered.

I'll add the others as I get my act together!
