Look what Nathan bought for me today!
I must be am the luckiest girl in the World. Eeeh!
Thank you honey! I love you. <3 <3 <3
I took this photo in Calais but never got round to putting it up. So here it is now. [:
Nathan and I are both feeling absolutely shattered today. Yesterday was busy, busy, busy and it feels like we’ve hardly slept a wink either. But neither of us are complaining, we’re just having a quiet day and may go to the fun fair this afternoon. But we may go on the weekend, depending on how we’re feeling.
The windscreen wiper snapped off our car yesterday which is a pain in the arse. We have to park underneath a tree every night and it deposits sticky stuff all over the place; the majority being on our car. It doesn’t aim for any other car parked underneath it, oh no, it aims specifically for our’s as I’m convinced it is out to get us. That evil tree. Anyway, yesterday morning I was washing the windscreen and one of the wipers started to make a horrible noise, so I turned it off and it went flying! I kept having to remind myself that it was snapped and I mustn’t turn it on. But then we were waiting for a car to turn across us and I managed to stall as we were on a slope, and as I turned the ignition back on, I bumped the wipers on so we had this metal thing scrape right across the glass making a nail-down-chalkboard noise. It was most unpleasant. So this weekend I think we need to drive off to Halfords and get it fixed. I may pick up some other bits and bobs whilst we’re there. I’d love to invest in a Tomtom sometime. But even those are scary as people always submit stories of how they got led to cliff edges because of those navigation systems. What’s with that? That’s not cool!
Oh yeah! Nathan said he’d buy me a Tiffany’s ring for our wedding so we spent lunch time on their site. I’m positive I found my perfect one. [: I’m so excited and happy and eeeeh!
I’ve decided what to do for Nathan’s birthday and I am thoroughly stoked. I think it is a very good plan and I can’t wait to do it all. Unfortunately for him, he’s going to have to put up with my secretive self and gleeful giggles for just over a week now. I just need to buy him presents. I wanted to get him a macbook, but they seem to be a tad out of my budget right now, so I guess I’ll downsize and find something just as good. Hmm.
We also found the most amazing place the other day. We were walking through all these trees and came out onto a massive lake/pond. I really want to get in sometime and take a million photographs, but it is protected because of wildlife until July 31st. So come August 1st, I’ll be waiting in the bushes for everyone to vanish before I strike! I want to try and do a water series and make it look all misty and cold, that means Nathan will be getting wet again. But I will be too, so we’ll just have heaps of fun!
Anyway, this was just a blog to update on our busy lives right now. I think we’ll go for an afternoon snooze later. So tired! That is all for now! Over and out.
I have just finished a whole day’s work putting cases together for the puppie’s owners. I am absolutely pooped! I’m pretty happy with the way they came out. [:
I have ordered 100 DVD cases today which should be here either tomorrow or Thursday, so when I get more work, I can make more pretty packaging. Gosh, I now realise how much effort goes into making things look appealing!
A little while back we met my Godmother’s new puppy called Prudence. Yesterday we got the honour to go and photograph her and her little puppy friend called Moccasin the golden dachshund. We drove down to Dorking and thankfully the rain managed to hold off for us for the 2 hours we spent with them. They were so, so sweet… and very energetic! I’ve never photographed anything like puppies before but it was heaps of fun and kept us really fit!
I now have a party event booked for July which I’m thoroughly looking forward to! Looks like things are beginning to lift off for me (or so I hope at least!)
I really have not much more to report on. Nathan is bogged down with work but is making amazing progress every day. His immense concentration is enough to cause an earthquake. Speaking of which, yesterday morning South London saw the most incredible storm. Turns out it blew over to Suffolk and developed into this! It made the ground shake and woke up several towns at 6am. Everyone was talking about it all day long. So much for sleep-in’s, ey!?
Hello everyone!
My fingers are all sticky after devouring a blueberry muffin and now I’m eyeing up some sugar mice which are smiling sweetly at me.
Gosh, things have been a whirlwind. It really feels like God has been putting us to the ultimate test, and just when you feel like you’re on top of it, something else happens to put you down again. Oh well, things only ever go up and I think all this bad luck is about to run out – touch wood. [:
Today has been so incredibly sunny. Then around 2.30 a huge rainstorm whipped up out of no where. The wind was spraying it against the windows at a crazy force and we even heard one clap of thunder (which was very unimpressive!) And now it is sunny again as if nothing ever happened. Oh England, why do you trick us this way? Why?
Nay and I have been brainstorming ideas on how to get rich. We’re currently working on a top secret mission (well, he mainly is, as usual I’m just tagging along and then he’ll give me half of the undeserving credit). I think it could make life very different and exciting. I know this can work, it’d be lovely to have some extra cash in our back pockets. Who wouldn’t want that?!
I dream of us owning a house. A house with a patio so Nathan and I can sit outside on Summer evenings in the Sun. And it’d be magical. We’d go for evening walks with the warm air sweeping us along and we’d be in cool tops and sandals. I can’t imagine it ever being that warm again, and I don’t understand why I am suddenly anticipating Summer so much.
I found this wonderful firefly jar for sale. It is just so awesome and would make anyone feel nostalgic. It’s only $17.95 which is a price you couldn’t refuse and they’ll keep you amused for hours on end.
And that would be all for now! Until next time, peace out.
