Wow it’s been a while since I posted it’s been busy & I’m so very tired at the moment
I keep feeling that I’m being stretched thin I’ve been trying to catch up with so many people as well as get so many project completed the house is almost back to normal apart from the massive subsidence cracks that we have to leave until the insurance company finish arguing again with the council over who is going to pay for the damage so we can’t redecorate! So that’s it probably till summer again I wasn’t really looking forward to shifting all my stuff from one room to another while they redecorate anyway it just makes me realise how much crap I really have & how good I am at hiding it! LoL
So I’ve been making presents & cards for Christmas none of which I can show you sorry but I can show you baby cards as L has got the card I made her & C for baby C who’s not here yet but I wanted her to have it for the baby shower which we don’t really do over her in the UK but I watched friends so I know you guys do that sort of thing LOL
And before anyone complains about the skull they are rockers and liked it & I have it on reliable info that baby C likes guns N roses so may well be a rock star one day just like his daddy, so there! LoL
And for those that prefer san skull I had 2 more baby boys (not me, my friends) and they both have older sibs so I made badges as I’m an older sib I remember being a little jealous of all the attention so I always make special things for them.
Ok so I met up with a blogger friend my 3rd B & husband C her daughter also a B is over at the moment & we’ve been out a few time I had such fun we went to Hamiles & down oxford street & on to Harrods I hope they had fun too (I was a little scanty) don’t do people photos unless I have permission but here are some of the other bits!
I found my self in Greenwich on Saturday so I did a little Christmas shopping and went to feed the squirrels as it turned out to be a really abysmal day it really rained hard there were very few people feeding the squirrels so they were very happy to see me in fact I got very close to them and at one point I had 10 surrounding me along with a murder of 20 crows & about 60 pigeons. The squirrels in Greenwich are actually quite used to people & will come and sit on you if you have the right attitude I had them tugging on my trousers when they had finished so I could give them more I was too busy feeding them to get a photo unfortunately but it must have look hilarious to anyone who as walking by!
Greenwich Park is part of the land that the crown used to own & hunt on King Henry the 8th & Elizabeth the 1st used to ride their horse through it and hunt venison for the table (I’m not really into hunting but it‘s the history of the place) so they have always kept deer here there is a little bit you can go to, to see them but you very rarely do, so
I went to the deer part just for a rest where I met another squirrel so I turned to feed him also (yes I’m a sucker) when I turned back to my amazement there were the deer! And not just a few but the lot of them & the stag too in all the time I’ve been going to the park & it’s a lot my granddad used to take me as a child (it’s were I go to remember family instead of a graveyard, it’s my happy place, you can get lost in it!) I have never seen the stag that’s 38 years & he was posing it is of course rutting season & there are 2 fences between me & said stag! I have never wished for a better zoom camera before but I did today.
(But I think its time to start saving for the cannon as of Jan the 1st that’s what I’m gonna do I have reached the time when I actually need a digital SLR)
anyhow it made that rain, cold & mud all worth it as did the very sweet squirrels & the friendly chatter of the dog walkers who come to the park I got quiet muddy play with everyone else dogs!
So I walked across the heath & got the bus back home where I had a nice cup of hot chocolate & chocolate a cup cake (or 2) waiting!
Oh dose anyone know if the Host by Stephenie Meyer is anything to do with the twilight series or is it a separate new series? You guys in the US know more about it than some of the shops here! Thanks looking forward t seeing twilight when it finally starts here I’m hearing it’s close to the book not really sure if the books are that big over here as I’ve only heard my US friends really talking about it but maybe everyone will come out of the closet after the films release, a little like what happened with Harry Potter! LoL
Ok better go or this is not going to get posted, hope you are all well will try & get around leave some comment love I really do mean to but you guys are just so dame prolific LoL! Seeya hugya *G*

And having heard another interview he didn't keep any of the money he made from the posters & stuff (he didn't make much) and he wasn't paid by Obama's campaign either he did it because he believed in it

Sorry haven’t blogged for a while life is got in the way nothing bad just life! Just thought I’d drop by & say good luck with the vote not sure who I want to win the rottweiler in waiting or the alien magnet! (Well if you see any film in Hollywood the second America gets a Black president we get invaded by Aliens or a major disaster happens! LoL)
We never get so much coverage of our elections & I’m not sure if that’s a good or bad thing I am distrustful of politicians in general I think they on the whole start out as good but somewhere along the line they get corrupted or lost in there own important’s! But it must be very hard to have that much power and not let it get to your head. Ok at work better get going 7 weeks till I’m on my xmas break can’t wait & yes I am back to looking for a job any ideas as to good web sites protocols about putting you CV on web sites (never done that & am a little scared about ID theft always used agencies but the few I’ve tried don’t seem to be having much luck with me I think they are inundated)
