Photo of me and granny from 2005

 Evening~~


I kinda gave up waiting for midnight last night

we did stay up longer and I was hand sewing something on my jacket and jack was reading next to me. Then we played pokemon in bed but I didnt want to wake up late in the morning and ruin half my day. So I crawled into a ball and tried to sleep, I heard the fireworks at midnight then slept til 3am to which I needed a wee. Then I slept til 8am


This morning I cleaned Oz out and it looked so nice out that Jack suggested we do a walk

I wanted to go shops just to get out. I felt quite penned in and the looming sense of school on the horizon. So we decided to walk to TK MAXX and yeah we left the house at 10am and got back at 12....

the shop was dead. No one was shopping there was also next to nothing on the shelves. It was a bit of a wasted journey but nice to get out. I got a pair of trainers reduced from £65 to £6 and face sheets reduced from £8 to £4. So yeah that was alright really

then we had to walk back

I was so tired and achy

It wasnt cold or anything it was just a long time to be on my feet

so we got home, got lunch then I tried to go sew but felt so tired and achy and grouchy

Jack told me to go bed but I didnt want to but in the end I went for 45mins and felt no better, so turned to drugs and felt a bit better

I sat doing my jacket, the jacket that has tested me all holiday. To be honest I have had enough of seeing it!! But because I want it to look good and improve on my jacket making skills I have been taking my time with it. I brought Oz in at 3pm and sat with him whilst working on my jacket as some of it I was hand sewing - tacking. Then I left him to sew it up, only left him 5mins he was fine.

Then I did dinner which Jack really enjoyed and its so cute when we come through with dinner as Oz comes running up to us wanting his evening carrot - i love watching him then run off with it. Like Id take it back! 

I then rang mum as she wanted to talk to me, nothing major it was all mundane but think she needed to talk to a female. Then I had a bath, then looked at how to make a lined draw string bag as mum wants me to make one for her friend. I dont mind doing it at all. I just want to get it right.


I had asked my brother to photoshop an image of me and granny, which I then want to frame and give to mum on mothers day. I said it can be a joint present as hes edited it and I will buy the frame.

but his skills are so good

heres what he produced for me



the original



This was taken 2005 - I am 13 here. What a precious photo tho. Me and my granny. I would give anything to have 5 minutes with her again


I might start the draw string bag tonight as Jack is gaming with theo til late. Told him id rather him game late tonight that tomorrow or monday. i want to get into a good sleep routine before school. so I am by myself tonight as I just took Oz to bed.


tomorrow is food shop, back into our sunday routine~
