Day 111: Saturday 31st July 2010

Ahhh the precious one day off I get a week! Today has so far looked like this....



NICE.

Day 110: Friday 30th July 2010

Walking home from one job to another I caught a snapshot of some garages near us. Reminded me of my college days when I dressed up my sis in Urbanite wear and forced her to model, cigarette in hand, up against these dirty doors for a photography project. Here I am 6 years on and I'm taking pictures of the same thing....


I need to move outta here.



Day 109: Thursday 29th July 2010

Another evening with Antony and another evening well spent eating ridiculous amounts of ice cream. Hello lardville? Yes, I'm on the way, give me two weeks. Curse you Ben. You too Jerry.

Day 108: Wednesday 28th July 2010

Came home from work to a lovely surprise today, a bag full of charity shop scarves from my mum's shop! Ahhh, heaven.

Day 107: Tuesday 27th July 2010

Spent the night at my lovely man's place tonight and took a quick shot of his very cool guitar made out of match sticks.

Day 106: Monday 26th July 2010

Another in-house photograph I'm afraid. Gave myself the day off before I burnt out. Having a great time relaxing and blogging :) Here's a pic of a cool clock we have in the study...

Day 105: Sunday 25th July 2010

Went over to one of my boyfriends friends new house this eve after work for a BBQ! Really fun evening :) My photo has nothing to do with that sadly, as I forgot my camera (boo hiss boo). Instead I took a pic of a picture my parents had painted for us kids when they travelled to Asia (both were cabin crew for BA). Each symbol means something sweet and act as a prediction for our lives! My symbols say I will have these things in my life...

Nobility, Beauty, Happiness, Love and Money. (sweeet).

Day 104: Saturday 24th July 2010

Had to work today instead of having my usual day off. Ended up very sleepily taking a photo of one of my many tattoo's before stumbling into bed declaring defeat.

Day 103: Friday 23rd July 2010

Work at home and at Paperchase today, exhausted. Came home and found a new friend in my room, isn't he pretty? I named him Merth.

Day 102: Thursday 22nd July 2010

Again, a lil stuck for inspiration today... ended up holding my paperweight up to a light.....

Day 101: Wednesday 21st July 2010

Went round to see the boy this evening :) He picked some fresh herbs from his garden and made us a yummy dinner (as always), brilliant boy.

Day 100 (!!!): Tuesday 20th July 2010

You can always count on the power of fairy lights to make a messy wardrobe look chic....

Probably should have taken a slightly more interesting shot for Day 100 huh? Promise to do better for day 200....

Day 99: Monday 19th July 2010

Another day working from home writing until my lil fingers bled. Running out of inspiration in the home for pictures.... But got a cool shot of our lampshade. so all is well.

Sunday 18 July 2010

Day 98: Sunday 18th July 2010

Had a funny sort of day today, had work at Paperchase, and my morning started off terribly (ran late in the morning then continued making stupid mistakes) but by the afternoon things were great, I was getting trained up on the paperwork side of things and my manager was singing my praises! So by law of averages my evening should be spectacular...have a feast of a BBQ with the fam, then off to see the boy, so my guess is that it will be!


Here are some yummy berries I get to eat later....


Day 97: Saturday 17th July 2010

Had a plan to spend all day relaxing, reading and blogging today- but lucky for me a couple of my friends called me up and ruined those plans in the best way possible! Ended up joining them to the lake near us for a girls wakeboarding day, now I don't wakeboard myself, but my friends do and watching them play in the water was brilliant. In between rides we kicked back in the sun enjoying hot dogs, cupcakes and games. Ended up going for dinner together too, was such a nice day- I love it when things don't go to plan.

Here are some pictures from the day, most of them are of us playing on longboards, which I've decided I must own.






(I'm not gonna lie, I didn't take this one, this was the fabulous work of Fi!)





(Yeah that's right, I had a go! WANT ONE)




Good day :)

Day 96: Friday 16th July 2010

Had to catch a quick picture of the pretty sky tonight. Very excited for my only day off tomorrow! Then its 14 days straight! Eeeek.

Thursday 15 July 2010

Day 95: Thursday 15th July 2010

Hehe, to make up for the lack of birthday boy's involvement in yesterdays post, had to get one of him today! He was napping. Naww.

Day 94: Wednesday 14th July 2010

Well let me start by saying, "Happy Birthday!" to my dad!! unfortunately my picture isn't related to this in any shape or form. Instead I took a picture of my wooden tiger I got out in Thailand! Was looking through my pictures from the trip and made me all nostalgic for the place! Really want to go back one day, beautiful country.

Day 93: Tuesday 13th July 2010

Went round to Antony's this evening and was greeted by stacks of records! Didn't realise he had so many! Couldn't resist getting him to display them nicely and getting a snap- some classic tunes in that pile!!

Day 92: Monday 12th July 2010

Have seen a photography project type thing somewhere called 'corners of my room' (or words to that effect), so thought I'd give it a go- here are some corners of my room!



Day 91: Sunday 11th July 2010

Watched one of my new favourite films tonight called 'Away We Go'. It's about a couple who are basically on the hunt for a new place to settle down as they have a baby on the way, and all the shenanigans, revelations etc. experienced on the way. Really heartwarming :)

Day 90: Saturday 10th July 2010

DAY OFF! woohoo :) Me and Antony both had the day off, (which almost never happens), so we celebrated by going for a picnic! Ate amazing anti-pasti food, chorizo, cured meats, feta cheese, bread, sun blanched tomatoes...arghh was yummy.

Anyway enough daydreaming about food, here are some piccies...

Day 89: Friday 9th July 2010

Full day of writing today, worked my lil tush off to finish a huge list of brands. Ended up seeing some friends for a BBQ this eve and while I should've taken pictures of the pretty fairy lights, food, people, etc....I got a lil hammered instead and took a blurry photo of my room when I staggered home. CLASSY.

Day 88: Thursday 8th July 2010

Lots of evening shots this week I'm afraid, too hectic during the days to sneak in a photo, so here's a night-time shot from Antony's window, second time I've taken this shot, but very different results so it's allowed hehe...

Day 87: Wednesday 7th July 2010

Another day where I nearly forgot to take a photo!! Remembered whilst lying in bed and was so damn tired I just took a pic of me cowering under the covers...

Day 86: Tuesday 6th July 2010

Well had a thoroughly lovely evening tonight! Went to see some friends for a drink and then got a tour of one of their new housies! SUCH a lovely house. Makes me very excited for moving out one day with the boy.

Here's a pick of some room-mates chillin at the house, Benny and Woof...

Day 85: Monday 5th June 2010

This week is gonna be quite manic, working mornings at Paperchase and then freelance writing in the afternoons/evenings. Wish I could do one of them all day though....

Day 84: Sunday 4th July 2010

Having real issues staying awake at the moment, seem to be tired constantly! Never fun. First day working all alone at Paperchase today! Was fun looking at all the pretty things I wanna use discount on....

Here's me lookin sleepy at the end of the day....

Saturday 3 July 2010

Day 83: Saturday 3rd July 2010

Nice and sunny today, rocked out my gladiators and took some pics in the garden :)




Day 82: Friday 2nd July 2010

Have had the house to myself for the last week and I've been loving it. Took some silly photo's of me and the emptiness. I know, I'm lame.





Day 81: Thurday 1st July 2010

First day of work at my new job today! Have had to get a part-time job to help with money while I'm freelancing, although I fear this job may just make me want to spend money....hmmm....
