Small Crazy Jan Challenge Finish!

Good evening!

So the weekend is coming to a close, and it is almost time to head back to work again, however some good news is I have another finish!

This was my day 11 start of the Crazy January Challenge, so that means out of the 15 I now have 5 complete so 10 still to go...a third of the way there! I don't think that is too bad to say we still have 10 months to go!


This cute little chap is Rory Raccoon who came free with Cross Stitcher issue 268, I have to say I enjoyed stitching him a lot, I think he looks great in his little frame too :)

Not sure where he will live now he is complete, but I will figure that out later!

Valentine Surprises :)

Good afternoon!

I hope you are all well and enjoying your weekend. Here it is windy and raining so I have no plans to venture out today, perhaps tomorrow when I shall go for a run!

Another successful week with the weigh in, losing another 2lbs! So that makes 12lbs since I've been on Slimming World and 25lbs total! I am very happy :)

So yesterday was Valentines day and I must say I was very spoiled this year. First, while Heaven and Earth were still having their 50% sale he bought me three charts!






I love them all, and they were all on my wish list. I have no idea when I will get to stitch any of them, but I look at it as an investment for my retirement - even if it is 40 years away! Hehe! :D

Then, once we got home these were waiting for me too :)


Later he cooked me a three course meal, with parma ham with warm ciabatta to start, followed by Steak and Chips and finished off with a chocolate millionaires shortbread dessert - YUM! Not so sure there will be a weight loss this week after all that! Haha :D

I have only stitched a little this week, and it has been on a secret project, which I can't share with you at the moment as I know the receipient reads my blog - sorry!

I would just like to say hello to all my new followers too, and thank you all for your lovely comments you leave me, I don't always seem to have the time to reply to them all these days but I do try :)
