2 AM. check in.


No crafts tonight, I have just been looking at some of thousands of photographs that are clogging up my lap top.
I have posted a selection of my favourite ones.


I love this one of my son in law with the kids, taken on a visit to a castle.



My son Will & Sophie.



Billy washing up!



Lottie having a cuddle.



Amy, my daughter & Lottie my grandaughter.


Billy enjoying being creative.

Attention children ...
the bathroom door is closed!

Please do not stand here and talk, whine, or ask questions.

Wait until I get out.

Yes, it is locked. I want it that way. It is not broken, and I am not trapped.

I know I have left it unlocked, and even open at times, since you were born, because I was afraid some horrible tragedy might occur while I was in there, but it's been 10 years and I want some PRIVACY.


Do not ask me how long I will be. I will come out when I am done.

Do not bring the phone to the bathroom door.

Do not go running back to the phone yelling "She's in the BATHROOM!"

Do not begin to fight as soon as I go in.

Do not stick your little fingers under the door and wiggle them. This was funny when you were two.

Do not slide pennies, LEGOs, or notes under the door. Even when you were two this got a little tiresome.

If you have followed me down the hall talking, and are still talking as you face this closed door, please turn around, walk away, and wait for me in another room. I will be glad to listen to you when I am done.

And yes, I still love you.

Mum.

2 AM Project




Just made a Christmas mat for the coffee table.

The proper English way!




The wind is still howling but at least we haven't got the dreadful floods.

In Cumbria, it's awful.



Jedward are finally out of X factor, now we just have to get Katie Price out of the jungle!
(only sad people in the UK will know what I'm on about!)

Men are like ...

Men are like ... Weather. Nothing can be done to change them.

Men are like ... Blenders. You need one, but you're not quite sure why.

Men are like ... Commercials. You can't believe a word they say.


Men are like ... Mascara. They usually run at the first sign of emotion.

Men are like ... Popcorn. They satisfy you, but only for a little while.

Men are like ... Lava Lamps. Fun to look at, but not very bright.

Dream home


If you could live anywhere in the world in your dream home, where would it be?

This is mine. Isolated, wild, hills & the sea.....perfect.



The inside would look like these rooms.




We would have to have good internet connection though, however isolated it was!
I wonder if Tesco would deliver the groceries way out there?

Happy Saturday








  • Three old ladies named Gertrude, Maude, and Tilly were sitting on a park bench having a quiet conversation when a flasher approached from across the park. He came up to the ladies, stood right in front of them, and opened his trench coat. Gertrude immediately had a stroke. Then Maude also had a stroke. But Tilly, being older and more feeble, couldn’t reach that far.











  • Worldometers - real time world statistics



    Please check this site out, its fascinating! (Well I thought so anyway!)
    Have a great weekend......xxx

    For Mam





    A bit late this morning, have had a headache from hell, all night long.
    Couldn't even be bothered to switch the laptop on!
    Anyhow, these funnies are dedicated to my mam.........!
    She dislikes cats as much as me, but has had to look after her neighbours cat for a week while she was on holiday.
