Oh, and I promise there will be some actual writing and reading done at some point this week. Life’s a little crazy at the moment. Good, but crazy. Hope you’re all OK and I will catch up soon.
Mwah.
Oh and I got a prezzie, nana nana nana. My lovely friend Kim sent [...]

When cool got married

Yesterday was quite possibly the coolest wedding in the world ever.
Why?
1. The bride, my mate Lu, was wearing a fabulous creation from an amazing and also very lovely Nottingham Designer who makes clothes for Dita Von Teese and the Scissor Sisters. So she looked like a princess but with a funky/sassy edge that [...]

I love toast, me

Right now, if all is going to plan we should be surrounded by lovely mates and having a fabulous time. Misses E and M will probably be no longer sweetly smelling and neatly attired, but red faced and laughing doing knee slides across the dance floor. Mr B will probably have gravy [...]

Tomorrow La famille Beaufoix will be attending a very special occasion, the wedding of one of my bezzie mates in the world ever.

We were 22, an age when you think you’re grown up but most people think you’re really not. There was me and there was Lucy and there was Dez and there was Nats.
We decided a girlie night was in store, but not the usual trawl around the finest hostelries in Nottingham before a [...]

Nuts

Argghhhhh, I am being dragged away from the pc by red wine and cashew nuts.
Arghhhhhhh.
(So yeah, I’m tired and need to snuggle my hubby. I’ve been working at my dad’s and just got in and it’s after 10pm, so I’ll catch up tomorrow, I promise.)

Finished

10.40pm Jo and Mr B finish putting together Miss M’s wardrobe.
The room is done.
Jo is so knackered she can barely type and has gone all third person.
Weird.
You want pictures?
Well I can’t give you the before as I forgot to take pics, but where Miss M’s bed is now there were built in wardrobes. Her [...]

Going pink

Why is it that every time I paint my hands end up like this?

(And I already washed them twice.)
And why do my lovely new pristine brushes end up like this?

And why do my wrists look so wrinkly in the top picture?
Cough, anyway, as I was saying, how is it that when I paint, everything, and [...]

Hairy knees and a little calm

There is something so good about spending the day ripping out a wardrobe. Mr B has taken Misses E and M to see Grandma, but I stayed home to destroy stuff.
Clearing out Miss M’s top cupboards of the built in wardrobe in her little room yesterday I noticed mould and lots of it. [...]
