I can not believe that there is only another 11 days until September arrives, Christmas will soon be upon us. Just a small update on my life in the last week. I had a whole weekend off and declined any work I got called up for and for those two days Lewis and I packed up the spare room, most stuff in the hall and all the small pieces in the lounge. I emptied the entire kitchen into fold-able crates and deep cleaned the cupboards, I have told Lewis that nothing is going back in them as it took quite a lot of elbow grease.

My calender seems rather busy in the next couple of weeks. Lewis, myself and his parents are off to CarFest this weekend, then next weekend Lewis is taking me for a weekend away to St Ives to relax and forget about work, moving and everyday stress'. Then we have that following week off to pack the big furniture and we are hoping that the solicitors might be near the end of sorting contracts.

The flat at the moment looks and feels like a tip, you start packing one room and find stuff that should go in another room. Then you have small bits that are to small for a box but have no place to hid away. And all the packed boxes just stacked in the corner. I will be glad for when we move some of them to storage Lewis' parents dining room so I can see what else needs packing. I just wish there was more time in the day because as soon as I start a room and get close to finishing its time to go to work or bed so then I have to leave it for the next day and the same thing happens again. I am lucky though to work mainly evening shifts as I can pack most things whilst Lewis is at work so he doesn't tell me how to pack.

On the agenda today is to relax this morning, tidy up the place and then to pack the last bits and pieces that I can do on my own. Lewis thinks we have packed to soon as we haven't been told a date just yet, but with being away for two weekends in a row and only be home together for two evenings during the week, it does not leave us much time and instead of rushing to pack everything once we know a date, it will all be done and we can focus on all the paperwork instead. I am a genius sometimes :).

I have created another page which contains documents that you can download if you are moving as well to help you.

Hello fellow crafters, I just thought I best check in and update my blog as I haven't wrote on here for a while.

I have been so busy lately working, completing my diploma only 6 and half more assignments to do. Hopefully I finish by late October and then I can get back in to crafting again. I have also been busy getting ready for my driving test in THREE weeks time eek :S then I have to find a car which seems a nightmare finding the right one.

I have just been on holiday so thought I would share some of the photos taken.

I thought I would have a break from writing up my assessment and update my blog. So this week has really surprised me. The sun is blazing hot and I still have my winter work trousers out. I remember last week going to work and all the clients I visit were saying that the weather was dull and that it wasn't summer weather and now this week I go to work and they all say its too hot!!

Maybe that is because they still had the night storage heaters on from those cold nights and their windows were CLOSED!! I got into my first couple calls and all I wanted to go was open all the windows up and put some lose fitting clothes on. But as the weeks gone by I have caught a slight sun tan (burn) on my arms and randomly on one knee :S from sitting in my mums garden on Wednesday as I rushed to complete my 19 question assessment due in yesterday. Which I am just finishing typing up but it is sending me to sleep :(.


I also went to the beach on Tuesday evening as I did not want to waste my night off inside. We went to Eype for a walk along the beach and then stopped in West Bay to get a ice cream which was lovely :) I purposely left my purse at home so I could get a treat. I am a cheeky one.



I am craving to go into the craft room and just craft. Mainly I want to get my images out and finishing colouring the collection stored on my shelf. My craft room is so tidy at the moment and I am not aloud to get it messy as my partner wants to sell the flat so we can buy a house TOGETHER!! Woop and I can not wait.. just the luxury of thinking that one day soon I can have a proper craft room not one I have had to make a spare room as well and also the thought of being able to go outside in the garden on a lovely day like today seems amazing.


Well I best get back to finishing this assignment :( then make a start on the next one. I hoping that whilst I am busy typing a fairy will come and do the pile of ironing my partner has left on the table for me to do today. Such torture to be suck on a laptop and having housework to do. All I can say is that this weekend I am going to relax and craft. I feel like making cupcakes as well but I have no one to give them to so do not think I will bother.

Thanks for visiting my blog. Much love Sophie. x
