It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ..........

OK Cheesy I know ! but sending my Advent Twinchies to the Netherlands Group - we open one twinchie and one inchie each day up to Christmas Day = looking forward to this.

in their envelopes.

seemed to take me ages to make - enjoyed making them though.

 

Merry Christmas everyone.

Dominiques Birthday 14th November. Have to send off early as she is in Holland.

hope she likes it.

we have to send 5 inchies or rinchies - crafted in the birthday girls colour and a little something craft wise.  I loved these little fabric hearts, so I sent them on to her hoping she'll use them. 

 

Happy Birthday Dominique.

 

determined to have a good weekend on SW !

have bought enough to make two big batches of soup - so tonight it will be soup and then salmon with broccoli in the casserole liquid.  tomorrow prawn salad at lunch and chicken salad at tea. sunday light lunch probably soup and tea will be lamb sheek kebabs.  I hope I can stick to this and find Monday I am showing nearer to the 12 stone mark again.

didn't go to SW this week

I thought the scales would be terrible !  but I weighed myself at home and showing 1lb off - I gained that pound last week - STILL I didn't go !  I want to be extra specially good this week and get below 12 Stones I hope I can, fed up staying the same and NOT getting my stone award.  THIS WEEK I SHALL DO IT NO MATTER WHAT !

my new car - lovely to drive

Charlotte leaves to have her baby Ava - so I made her this

 

after a really bad day at work I wasn't going to make anything but felt the need to craft and had nothing else to make apart from inchies and twinchies for Christmas and at the moment I feel 'all inchie and twinchied out' - hope she likes this - didn't take very long and I enjoyed making it.

 

Bad bad blogger ........................

last Sunday Key and I went into the Hyundai new car sales.  I had seen the Hyndai and seen the i20 previously about 4 months ago and thought it was nice...............anyway, cutting a long story short - got there for 1 pm and by 1.45 had test driven it and was signing up for it - £200 a months for the next 3.5 years frightens me to death my last new car was £7.500 cash I suppose it's only the same kinda thing...................will owe £3,500 at the end of 3.5 years so can pay it off then or go for another new car.  By then I suppose there will be different deals.  We should be well established in Utility Warehouse too - the shop will be doing better and hopefully I shall be retired...............but then again no one knows what is round the corner.

must post a pic of my new car, don't know why I'm not as excited about this one, maybe because we are always having new cars with Keys job ???  I was excited when he picked up the Mercedes and the Jaguar before that - but I do love my little Hyundai i20.  Don't I ?
