We all need a little down-time :)

Oh, my poor little Blog, I’m so sorry I neglected you… I got caught up in tinsel and school plays, and all manner of distracting, time consuming affairs!….

 

Then I was soo tired and sleepy I nestled down in the comfiest spot I could find to rest awhile. and so, you were left to your own devices. apologies. x

I do have lots to share from the last few weeks, but today I have this;

Seeing as I’m sure I’m not the only one exhausted from the festive season, I’ll share with you a few links to the sites, Blogs and You Tubers that I enjoy watching and reading when I’m having to rest up.

My favourite at the Moment is ‘Melon Lady’, She is a wonderful, crazy, happy lady with a sense of style and an infectious laugh. If ever I feel the need for a pick-me- up, I go to her videos because she always makes me smile. ( and quite often burst out laughing, making my family look at me like I’m the crazy one!)

This is a silly little page that posts lots of pics of things that make me laugh 🙂

The next You Tuber I watch alot of is The Cherry Doll Face.

She is a lovely lady with an interest in vintage, tattoos, hair, makeup, rockabilly and all that genre of things that tickle my girly fancy!

She does awesome tutorials and is fun to watch 🙂

I recently discovered a fantastic artist called Kerry Evans whilst at the 1st Jurrasic Coast Tattoo Convention, and so have been looking through her work and admiring it all and dreaming of hanging her paintings around my home!

 

I do have an awesome kerry evans ‘Diego and Rosa’ mug though! -win!!

Kerry’s web site is-   http://www.kerryevansart.co.uk/index.html

 

And If all that is too much to contemplate, or you just need to relax, I go here

trust me, you can zone right out listening to this track! It lasts for 46 mins too.

So when I get the chance, and the little people are tucked up in bed and Mr Monst is in his gaming land, I plug in my headphones and go on adventures with random quirky tallented people on the web!

Its also great medicine for feeling unwell. I get to have fun and explore and learn new things, while my body rests up 🙂

I hope you find them as entertaining as I do 😀

With lots of love to you all

we’re Marooned!… ah well, pop the kettle on ;P

We have a Splishy issue. A giant soggy problem!

Don’t get me wrong, I love and adore water. The wild stormy sea, a meandering  brook, tranquil lake, trickling stream…all of them, love love love.

The problem is though, that my home has developed a moat!

Yep, we have huge, gigantic pond as a driveway!

This gave me the perfect opportunity to turn my little home into a cozy -snuggly type place 🙂

Its no secret that I love sparkles and twinkles, and so I lit some candles, scented with berries and cinnamon and turned on the many many fairy lights all around the house, brewed hot tea and read the little elflings a Christmas tale.

I believe that fairy lights are not just for Christmas! they bring joy and light up a dreary day whatever time of year it is 🙂 and so I have 7 sets of lights at the moment, there are always plans for more !

I’ve always admired the way that cats can get comfy, and make it look so easy!  they just oooze comfort and contentment. Oh to slip into the body of a cat, just for a while. I’d love to experience that utter comfort, the way they contort and stretch, wriggle and writhe until the position is just right…. bliss!

Mr Spook has definitely embraced the slower pace today. He is lying next to me all snuggled up, he just stretches and reaches out for a little tickle every now and then. He is the master of relaxation!

So today, my life’s lesson is to be content. to nestle and be comfortable.

for there is a 20 foot wide moat between me and the world! But in all honesty, there’s no where else I’d rather be.
