Ok so I have been doing a little dance this last few days, I was promoted at work on Thursday, so I am a very happy bunny and I have to confess although I have a long commute, I am one of the lucky people who actually love thier job!
Today we had gorgeous spring weather, blue sky and a warm breeze, so we decided to take the boys to St. Andrews for the day, to see the Aquarium and visit the beach, the boys had a great time and so did Vicki and I.
Kris with his new lion-cub pal. In the Entry Tank: Robbie & Kristofer watching the fish: A Tiny Ray: This gorgeous tiny breed of Ray waves (well I want to think he was, so he is lol!) Dino Ride Fun: gorgeous creatures: Pretty or Ugly??? I can't decide?!? Then some fun on the beach before we headed home: They love the beach: What a great day, back to work tomorrow, then a day with mum on Tuesday. Life is good!!!
This is my first week Joining in with WOYWW! I know it's fun because my Mum and partner both play along but I was being a bad blogger so I decided to wait until blogging had time back in my routine before I started to play.
So here is what is on my Workdesk:
Ewwww hmmmmm, think this needs sorting out lol!!
I am planning to use this pile of stash to create 3 different layouts
I have also decided on my project for celebrating a year of WOYWW, that should be loads of fun.
I was actually excited to have done 2 whole layouts in the last month, although they are different, I actually like them both. So here they are:
So I gave up on the 30 days project but not because I didn't enjoy it, more because I could not decide on my fav. things. I have too many things I love! lol.
In my title it says a new leaf, well I have finally taken my life in hand and have a routine, my new leaf is a diet plan for my wedding in October (YAY!!!), looking after my diabetes (which I have not been!), spending quality time with Robbie and Kristofer, (2 of my gorgeous nephews, both of whom are placed with my partner and I currently)and of course spending some us time with vic as we don't get much of that lol. I am in a really good place in my life and I am truly happy, my only sadness is I have very little time to scrap, so that has also been added to my routine.
I am planning to teach at the crop that I co. run, this month, I am hoping to do a class about journalling, it was something I often had trouble with but now I enjoy all the different ways to add it to projects.
To finish up, here are some pictures of a few days of fun with the boys on my days off:
Leven Beach fun at the arcade and the bouncy castle:
A Day on the Links Market Rides
Family day out swimming with Lisa, Kevin, Jamie and Oscar, Clair and Daniel, Vicki, Myself,Chris,Robbie and Christopher, then we headed to the beach for a burger. What a fab fun day.
I could blog so much but I better make sure that I blog more often rather than a huge post once in while.
Well I am a big fan of J R R Tolkien, so my choice is: The Hobbit a stunning book which I have read and read and read. Also LOTR of course.
I must also mention my second choice which is Harry Potter, the first book was outstanding and I love all the rest too. JK Rowling has a very nice way of writing for all ages in the same book.
I did managed to scrap 1 layout at the crop saturday before I took ill, then another tonight, I shall blog pictures tomorrow.
What a wonderful Easter we had, the boys sat down to a yummy roast with us at lunch time, then in the afternoon, we prepared the garden and snuck in surprise guests, Sharon (mummy) and Chris along with Auntie Clair and cousin Daniel, we took the boys out to the garden where we had set up an Easter egg hunt, the kids loved it, they had great fun.

What a lovely Easter day we had, thanks to all who came and made it a special day for the boys.
OK so I missed yesterday but I have day's 2 & 3 for you today
Day 2 is fav. Movie, I have so, so many but finally decided that my fav. Movie of all time, took the world by storm on it's release and was light years ahead of it's time:
STARWARS
and still so watchable now, some movies become dated but I can always watch Starwars and all the other movies in the series.
Next is Day 3
My fav. Television Programme
Well for this one I had 2 and could not decide between them, I finally decided to give the title to GLEE!!! brilliant acting, outstanding singing, stunning writing, hilarious comedy and painful honesty, Genius!!!!
However I will also have to pay homage to the timeless comedy that is FRIENDS!!!
The unbelievable and timeless writing and acting involved in the 1o seasons of this outstanding comedy will live on forever but the reason I chose Glee is that I see this having the same potential if the writers find places to take the show and the music is awesome.
There are so many brilliant shows and I don't just love comedy, I do like a good medical drama and murder, Grey Anatomy and Dexter are up there in my top 10, I have to confess that I relate far more to American humour and drama that the UK produced shows, I am not sure why but I do.
