Its been a while.......

But I'm still alive. Its been ages since I've written a blog post so I thought it was about time I got to it. Well since I last posted, Christmas, New Year and snow has come and gone, and January is nearly at an end, thank god, I bloomin hate January. Christmas was a busy affair full of cooking, cleaning and entertaining but a good time was had by all. I had some lovely Xmas pressies and wasn't short of CK. especially hand cream. I don't think I'll need to buy any for a while.
I can recommend the wild rose hand cream, its absolutely gorgeous and I slap it on everyday. I'm hoping to have some time to get some crafting done at some point so I can get to use my new sewing and pin tin. I just haven't had time to do anything of late, and I'm having sewing withdrawls.

The new CK spring catalogue popped through the door last week and had some lovely new designs inside. I hope to be able to do a bit of shopping this weekend and treat myself. I had hoped to go on Saturday, but we had a very poorly puppy on our hands at the weekend. Had to phone the vets out of hours and got little Beau to see the vet first thing Monday morning. He's on some medicine now and is doing much better, almost back to his normal bouncy self. We just need to fatten him up a bit now as he lost so much weight.


The snow had the dogs acting crazy. They both absolutely loved it. In fact Woody loved it more than Beau, you'd think he was the puppy. This snow man became a good friend of theirs. Beau decided to steal his stick nose.



I've popped over a few of your blogs, and hope to get around to a few more in the next couple of weeks. I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. I won't leave it so long until my next post. Catch you later folks. xxxx Pixie xxxx

All De-Christmased

Well first of all Happy New year to you all, and heres hoping 2009 will be a good year. We bought woody a new bed for Christmas, which he completely ignored for a while, but now happily curls up in.
Today has been spent taking down the decorations and de-christmasing the house. It does look bare now. It took ages to get straight and the more you tidy and clean the more you seem to find to do. I felt myself getting quite cross gggrrrr.

It didn't help that hubby's in a bad mood today and its rubbed off on me and I definitely have the New Year blues now. :o(


But I'm now sat blogging with a glass of cava and feel a little better. Although already thinking about going back to work on Monday which makes me feel :o(.
I have so much I want to achieve in the coming year, far too long to list but I hope I get somewhere with my plans for this 2009. On the top of my list is to be more more organised, especially with the house and the shopping and plan meals. Save money, Loose weight and get fit etc. I'm sure I will be a much happier person if I can achieve all of these.



You never know we may get to decorate our lounge and get rid of that ghastly gas fire. :o)
I've got some lamb in the oven for dinner tonight which I'm hoping will be tasty, and then a DVD I think.
Have a great evening folks. xxxx
