Winter wear.....

Everytime I hear women who dress up in things I wouldn't even call clothes, use the explanation "I wear this for myself", it makes me cringe.
This is what I wear for myself, when I want to be comfortable, happy in my own body and feel good.

My Elvis-onesie. It is fleece, so warm and comfy, bought from Primarks salerack for £3. No need for feet-killing high heels, a fuckton of make up, or tits that have been tightly squashed under my chin.
So there.

Something little....

I turned 30 last year, and my other half got me nada for my birthday, so this year, I bought myself an early present.
I got a set a year ago, used it up, and absolutely loved it, so I bought a second lot.
That set is Snookis signature perfume.
I know. I bought it originally as a bit of a joke, and as it was affordable. I love Gaultier perfumes, but they are pricey, so this one was good price for what I got.
It actually is brilliant. I love the smell, the body lotion leaves my skin soooooo soft, and I love the kitschy tackyness of the packaging. I'm not one to take myself too seriously, so this is perfect for me.

I cannot wait for my birthday now. IT'S ALL FOR MEEEEEEEEEEE!
Now I don't have to be like the Grinch on xmas day :)...

It's oh so quiet....

Bienvenidos to my newest follower. Welcome to the familia of the slightly off the norm... I shall resume my usual rants and crafting crap after I get my lil 'un on the mend. She has been poorly with a nasty bug that keeps her temperature going up and down like a friggin seesaw.
I need more coffee.
See you soon.

Crafting mania

The dark evenings have been my muse for random crafting, I stick some tealights on, put on tunes or watch the telly and try out new things.
I've also fallen in love with true entertainment channels morning shows, Road to Avonlea, Little House on the Prairie and The Waltons is keepin' that warm and fuzzy feeling even when it's cold and shit outside.
I remember Road to Avonlea from when I was younger, I loved it then, and love it even more now. It goes to the same category with Northern Exposure and other quality shows that I have fond memories of.

Autumn/Winter

This time of year tends to give out the prettiest morning and evening skies.

 The hound did some quality chewing, and then commenced on to staring at my plate, hoping the food would relocate from it to her mouth.
Sunsets and sunrise moments are the shiz to keep us going through the otherwise pretty miserable winter season. No snow to lighten up the scenery either. But hey ho.

Merry f****n xmas....

So there I was, getting my tree up, xmas curtains up, wrapping presents and other xmassy crap, and then it started........
Tree had balancing little plastic thingamabobs, one of them broke.
I asked mr. to put shelves to the kitchen so I can get shit off the table...I'm gonna glue the shelves to the brackets, as my engineer brained derp can't get screws in properly.
To top it all, I wanted to give the sofa a bit of a clean. It's always been a bit tatty, and I have used the stain remover before......
So here's a round up of things so far.....

Somehow I find this appropriate time for starting up new traditions for yuletide, including an intake of crack and worshipping satan.
Don't even get me started how I hate the kitchen wallpaper........
