Fireworks in August

Last Saturday it was our town show.  After a day of fun on the prom it was time for the main event; the fireworks.  Its not a usual sight, fireworks on the beach...especially in August.  Here are a few photos of what can only be described as an amazing firework show.

Yes, I'm different, but that;s ok.  I like being different, it's who I am.

Wednesday Words (21 August 2013)

Seem to have been knocked down a few too many times and struggling to get up again.  But still trying which is the important thing.

What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? (21 August 2013)

Thanks for the tips last week on getting my mojo going.  Think its all to do with lack of organisation.  Since moving my craft desk also houses my computer and I have to move things around and pack away all the time.  This means I have to unpack and then pack away every time I craft which can be so demotivating.  This has been why I just don't feel like scrapping.

My desk this week:



This week I have been working on some project life pages.  Managed to print off some photos and choose cards.  I then took the page protectors to work and stuck the photos down and completed the journalling.  It is just too much hassle to embellish whilst at work but I hope I can find some spare moments to do this at home.  

Think I may try this again this week as it has meant I have sorted the photos and completed the journalling whilst the memories are clear.

Don't forget to pop on over to Julia to take part or just have a little nosey around craft land.

Project Life Tuesday (20 August 2013)

Sadly not much time for scrapping this week but I did manage to complete 2 weeks which is keeping up in a round about sort of way.  Well, it's certainly not getting further behind!

This is week 12:

Dancing The Night Away In Aid Of Wales Air Ambulance

This week we have gone outside for some fun and laughter but then sort of gone back inside.  

Inside a barn....for a barn dance.


There were cowgirls and cowboys....



Bull riding....







And plenty of dancing....







The Boy and The Girl danced and danced.  Something I never thought I would see with The Boy.  The Girl even got Grandad up and dancing.

And me?  Yes I did take part too but as I was in charge of my camera phone sadly there are no photos.  Darn, what a shame!

The evening was in aid of Air Ambulance Wales.

Crochet Time

Not much progress this week as I have been super busy with work related things this past week.  All I have managed is 4 partial hexagons and 1 complete:

interesting.....but I'm not sure you can really "give up" anger, maybe "holding onto anger".  It just might take a lifetime to really get there for all 15.


Felling a little overwhelmed these past few weeks and then saw this.  Think I need to work on about 12 of those at the moment.

What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? (14 August 2013)

A little different view this week. 

This is me showing my Daughter how to French Knit:



Now my Daughter has taken charge of the french knitting, can anybody give me an idea what I do with it all?



Paper crafting has left the building.  Just not had time to sit down and do any at all.  Part of this is down to lack of mojo and the other part down to lack of time.  The problem is the less I am doing the less mojo I have!  Any Suggestions?

At this point you know what to do.  Julia is waiting for you.
