I’ve noted all my numbers this month, more out of habit than anything else. I seem to have run out of enthusiasm for making a Project Life style scrapbook page, so I’m simply going to record them here. I went on 36 walks with Tilly I took 16 online Step classes via YouTube I did 31 sessions … Continue reading Month in Numbers | May 2023
It was a month where I read one new book (from a favourite author) and re-read books on my shelves. Between Us by Mhairi McFarlane | paperback | Mhairi weaves a story like a master painter, full of layers and detail and nuance. If you want a synopsis, read the back cover. If you want … Continue reading For the Love of Books | Currently Reading May 2023
It was a week of getting stuck in. 🙂 I began the redecoration of the spare bedroom Tilly and I met up with a friend for a walk around the park I nipped into town to see Chelsea in Bloom I went to The Boy's Summer SHINE Concert, where he was the compère 🙂 I … Continue reading Me on Tuesday | 30 May
London's Chelsea Flower Show has been on this week and the streets around the venue have been decorated in what can only be described as a floral abundance. 🙂 As Monday is a UK Bank Holiday, the next scheduled post will appear on Tuesday, 30 May.
The Kitty Boo CraftAway was a free-flow, work-at-your-own-speed kind of Crop (the best kind) and delegates had plenty of options to choose from. I usually avoid anything that includes backfilling a cut file, but I really like how this finished page looks. It probably helps that I love these photos of The Boy from 2010 … Continue reading Kitty Boo CraftAway Spring 2023 | What I Made | Part Four

On the 12th May 2023, the Mass Observation Archive repeated its annual call for day diaries, capturing the everyday lives of people across the UK. I treated the day like a Day in the Life entry and my key word was detail. I wrote the timed entries without much thought to structure. I didn’t add any photos this year, simply because I hardly … Continue reading Mass Observation Day | 12 May 2023
It was a busy week, with a lot going on both at home and out of it. The Best Friend had spent the night on our return from Crop in the Country and used our kitchen table as her remote office before heading home late morning I began the bedroom swap and discovered that there's … Continue reading Me on Monday | 22 May
The Kitty Boo CraftAway was a free-flow, work-at-your-own-speed kind of Crop (the best kind) and delegates had plenty of options to choose from. One of which was a boxed mini album. 🙂 I have an idea what to use it for, so I'll report back at a later date when it is stuffed to the … Continue reading Kitty Boo CraftAway Spring 2023 | What I Made | Part Three
As stated yesterday, the Kitty Boo CraftAway was a free-flow, work-at-your-own-speed kind of Crop (the best kind) and delegates had plenty of options to choose from. Here's a look at two more creations. I dithered about making the layout below, because I wasn't sure about the colours. But now that's it's finished, I really like … Continue reading Kitty Boo CraftAway Spring 2023 | What I Made | Part 2
