Feeling festive :)

The christmas decorations are finally up, the cards are all made (although I forgot to take pictures before I wrote them and sealed the envelopes - doh!) and all my presents are just about bought - yay!!! Only got a few little things to get.

Had my first night out on Friday and it was a really good laugh. Had our team lunch at Osta's in Stirling and then stayed out the rest of the day. Came back into Alloa about 8pm ish and met up with some more people from work, eventually got home at 1am after Pete came to met me in the pub!!! Was very tired yesterday. lol

Still got a couple of christmas presents to make mind you, so I need to get cracking on those.

Hoping that it will be a fairly quiet week work wise cos I've got 3 nights out at the end of the week :) Thursday is the Wildhearts at Academy - I'm soooooo excited. Friday is Town Hall so I'll be out from 5.30pm and Saturday is our couples night out which will be a scream. Next Sunday will be for sleeping only!


Look at what I've found - this must have been taken about 15 years ago - scary! But festive :)

Times flies ......................

It's been 3 weeks since I last posted ................. I'm sure there is a time fairy stealing all the hours of the day!!!!!

I've been making christmas cards and not much else these days, well no, not strictly true, 2 sets of ATCs, a CJ entry. And I've got another CJ entry to get done and posted off by Saturday (must remember to do this!?!?!)

Look at what I bought today .........................

I love these, they are SO hideously gorgeous :) Definitely a case of love them or loathe them but I don't care if no-one likes them, I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!

I'm back

Blogging two days in a row!!!!!!!!

What a minging day it's been today :( Cold, wet, windy, brrrr! But nothing put me in a bad mood today because ............................................... Last night was AMAZING!?!?!?! Can't believe it's been 4 years since I last saw Skid Row and they didn't disappoint. Had a sore throat all day from all the singing I was doing, well I call it singing, more like screeching, but who cares I had a great night. Been exhausted all day today but it was worth it. First saw them when they supported Motley Crue which was back in 1989 or 1990, god I feel old now!!!!

Where does the time go?

What have I been doing this month?

Well I've had a birthday, so I'm now another year older! I had a godd birthday, I got some lovely pressies including tons of beads so my bracelet is now full and I'm starting on collecting more so that I can have a colour co-ordinated bracelet. But here is what it looks like just now ................



I've also got a new ipod nano, Pete needed a new one for the duo so he got my one and I've got the brand new one!!! It's really cool, I can even watch videos, so of course I had to download a couple of Motley Crue ones to watch.

Really should be doing lots of 'work' work this weekend but I can't be bothered! We're going to see Skid Row tonight, I'm getting really excited. It's been a couple of years since we last saw them, in the Glasgow Garage again. Should be a great night. I get to see Rachel again, yippee!!!!!


Come to the conclusion I've got a thing for american bass players with dark hair and girls names! What can I say these two are gorgeous .....................



Ok, I really need to get on with stuff so I'm signing off for now.

Where did October go????

Who stole October! It's almost the end of the month. Which is good and bad. Good because it means my birthday is nearer but BAD because it means the year is nearly over and our holiday, feels like just a distant memory!

Speaking of holiday I finally ordered some of the pictures, only 500 of them!!!! Only scrapped one of them so far. There are too many to pick from, it hurts my head to try and decide where to start.

I've had a busy week, spent two days on a training course so I'm totally confused about which day of the week it is?!?!? Monday seems like such a long time ago.

I must confess I have a new addiction, well border line obession! (well not really new just refreshed!) Mr Nikki Sixx!!! He's just simply amazing! How gorgeous is this photo :wub:



Having read his new book "The Herion Diaries" on holiday, which shows a realistic side of addiction and depression, you see a "celebrity" in a new light. It's quite a bold step for someone in the public eye to be so open about what they had done with regards to drugs and alcohol. But it also highlights that he is able to come through it and he's trying to put that to positive use by supporting a charity in LA for young, homeless kids.

Plus he's not to rough on the eyes either LOL

I've not done that much scrapping lately, did do some of the UKS cyber crop. Made a really nice birthday book and my very first card. Even did some stitching of paper using my sewing machine. Kinda given me inspiration to make my own christmas cards this year. So if I can find the time I'll probably give that a go!

Going to Crafts for Scotland at the SECC on Sunday so I might try and get some fab christmas papers there and see what I can come up with.
