Umbrella + would have been 81

Oha~

Today would have been granny's 81st birthday :(
she almost lived to see it!
mum decided she would like us all to go out for dinner
for such an occassion

I slept rubbish last night i woke up twice scratching my face!
So now I have quite a red face from scratching =.=
why was i even doing that!?

I sat with the piggies as always
pinky seems a lot better now thank god
then i went upstairs and started to get ready
to take photos of my hoodie
i realized that a bit was wrong so i had to unpick 1 inch
then sew it together again then i took photos :D

Then i sorted my wall out i felt like changing
a few bits round. i get fed up of looking at the same scene each day
mum came home we had lunch then went out
we just did 4 charity shops and the bank
i saw this in a charity shop tho for £1.99

umbrella brooch, i always like thick plastic brooches 
but theyre usually very expensive. ive seen em at vintage fairs
and antique shops they usually £20+
this was one cheap and different at it has metal decorations - flower and handle
so im guessing its not worth anything but i sure dont care i love it!
its going on my new winter coat which is pink ^^

Came home and went to bed as i knew id need my strength
for the evening, usually id be fine but given i barely slept
i thought it was best to top up my sleeping hours

then got ready to go out
were going to a pub about 20mins away
i hate eating out i really really do
as i hate being in the presence of my dad and im always
on edge when him and pubs are involved 
ive had many panic attacks in pub toilets because of him
also its food. food at restaurants stresses me out big time 
depending on how strong i am depends on weather i have soup
or a proper meal. and if the menu happens to list the calories of
each meal i know im looking at that!! it frustrates me so
its not normal behavior and i tell my head to shut up
sometimes i win sometimes i dont
see how i go tonight
im wearing grannys necklace which my auntie got her
she always used to wear it when she went out anywhere
so i thought id put it on in memory of her i have kept her ring 
and necklace on at all times tho. but this necklace is one
i really associate with granny. because it was my auntie who gave it
granny im thinking of giving it to sarah on the day of the funeral
my auntie was her mother who died before granny so it became precious to granny
i think it will mean more to sarah than myself
besides i do not want to look greedy and grave robbing as i chose
the jewelry i wished to remember granny by 

tomorrow im not sure which project i want to start

A good sunday of sewing and anime

Good Evening all~

Last night as i layed in bed
i was drifting off  to sleep and a random thought 
popped into my head
"granny isnt here anymore" now why would i think that
at 10:30pm? it did make tears start to dwell on my eyes
so i quickly thought about something else

today it is now a week since she died
feels like 3 weeks

I had a good day today being in my own 
little world. I woke up at 9am
And from there I had a long morning sitting with the girls
then I went upstairs and took the whole of my new hoodie apart
thats right i stripped it to piece which took me an hour
but I put anime on and the time soon went
i have been watching an anime called Kokkuri-san
god its been making me laugh i love it!

So i was sat in my room resizing and re-stitching the hoodie
it just wasnt fitting together nicely so i used my best template
and suddenly it all fitted together!
it did take me a while to sew it together but i did get it done
and watched 8 episodes of kokkuri-san whilst working on it

i went for a short 15/20 mins walk
i popped into grannys house by myself and checked if everything was
ok and she didnt have any mail or anything

went home and slept for an hour
played with tiffin upstairs as it was too cold and dark
for him to play outside
and i sat and did some yin yoga

and that was my day really
it was a nice day apart from my head
having a lot of thought about food
its been giving me a rough time today actually
i hope i can sleep!

i'll upload photos tomorrow of the hoodie!

My first yoga workshop

Good Evening

I watched gogglebox last night with my family + pets
it wasnt that great but something to watch i guess
I went to bed praying Id sleep as i knew i had my yoga workshop in the morn

So I got up at 8:30am the workshop started at 9:45am
mum told me she wasnt feeling up to coming :(
i was disappointed but i didnt want her pushing herself
so i went by myself

I arrived to find my teacher stressing that she couldnt
get into the school, but just at that moment of me arriving
a lady came and opened up for us
my teacher was stressed cus she was hoping to have got set up
before we all got there and to have a quick stretch herself

So the lesson started late as we all had to get set up
and we ended up waiting for a couple of people who were late
but we had to bring so much with us
usually i just take my mat and a drink
but this time we needed
mat
drink
block/brick
2 cushions/pillows
1 blanket or 2 towels
we all looked like we were going camping together XD

it was good, a bit intense at times but i went with it
i didnt push myself to the max as i trying to pace myself
but i did work up a good sweat
she had 12 of us in the room
4 of which i knew from my wednesday yoga class.
we introduced to friends of my teachers
there was a couple next to me who had just set their own
yoga studio up in chesterfield - so i knew these two were gonna be good
then there was a lady she first trained with - she was lovely
then there were 3 skinny as hell and mega flexible woman
when i told my dad and my brother that sentence they said the same thing
"thats you" im not skinny as hell
anyway the class was good and i watched the pair next to me as they did
head stands!!! it was amazing and one lady helped me into a hand stand
i was well happy the hand stand i did - supported i'll add

we did some yin yoga - i have never done yin yoga
i  really enjoyed it and found it easy and relaxing
then at the end of the class my teacher said she didnt get through everything
she wants to do a 3 hour workshop next time! 2 hours was enough!!
she handed out peanut butter & dark chocolate flapjack and herbal tea
i took the one peanut butter thing to be polite
and it was nice just not my sorta thing
then i thanked her and left, ive since left her a thank you note on facebook

got home and announced "i cant walk" when i came through the door XD
i ate lunch and headed to bed cus i just needed to

when i woke up i did some sewing
then did a tiny bit of dancing - thinking if i do exercise then hopefully
i wont be stiff tomorrow
sewing again then drawing
here's the start of my halloween picture

tomorrow i short have my hoodie finished
as i only have the hood to sew on :3
i hope i can walk tomorrow!!
