Look What I Got!

Hi all! Starting to get myself together again......haven't done any crafting this week apart from my DT work for Stamp Something which I will post tomorrow, however, had a bit of a "get organised" day today and started sorting my stamps out. Mounted all my new High Hopes which arrived last week and stamped each and every one of them and then scanned them to my computer. Also did the same for my Bellas (although there's no so many of those lol!) and my Penny Blacks. Sugar Nellies are planned for tomorrow although I keep looking at my Magnolias and then putting them back again.....really didn't think I had THAT many and nearly half of them have never been used!! Do you think I may have a problem ? lol!!!!

Anyway, would like to share the award I received three times!! It really did cheer me up to know I've got such good blogging buddies out there, as I have been feeling a little down in the mouth lately!!



I received this from three ladies (and I use the term loosely!!! only joking!) who not only are extremely talented but also make me giggle - Fran, Vanessa and Sue - thanks so much girls :)

Now I'm probably going to get this all wrong as it's 9.00 pm and I'm running very late and need to get the kids to bed and I don't have time to look up the rules. However, I think you have to award it to four of your regular blog visitors and one new(ish) visitor from abroad, so as Fran, Vanessa and Sue have all received this award, thought I'd pass it on to Denise, Dawny P, Maureen, Jose and Alex (only recently got to know Alex through Stamp Something but what a generous and talented lady she is!)

Must go now but will definitely be back tomorrow with something to show.

My Surprise For Tony!!

As promised, I'm back to let you in on my surprise for Tony tomorrow! Don't know where to start with this but maybe a little personal history first. When I married Tony in 1996 I was a UK size 14. I've always had to watch my weight and never been naturally thin but was never vastly overweight either. In March 1997 I fell pregnant with Lewis and that's when the trouble started.....the weight piled on and after he was born as well because I wasn't eating properly and just grabbing food out of the fridge when I had a spare five minutes.....oh, the joys of being a new Mum! Then I got pregnant again with Sam and even though I didn't gain much more weight during pregnancy, I made up for it afterwards! Am I boring you yet! It took me ten years and many failed diets to finally get serious about losing weight so I started my diet in January this year and this is the evidence....... please do not show the first photo to small children or animals as it may scare them !!!!!...
