Introducing Miss Betsy Bunny....

Good afternoon everyone.
I hope you are all well.
Well it's been a another busy week at work so once again it has been a bit slower on the crafting side....
And I have also developed yet another cold but at least this time it's not been during my annual leave....hopefully I will get over this before the end of next week when I have a week off....
I would like to introduce you to....
Betsy Bunny

She was made for me by the exceptionally talented Mandy from A Sprinkling of Glitter....

Sadly 'No' weight loss this week....so that's eight pounds so far....my little weight loss tracker at the side of my blog remains the same....hopefully I will do better over the next week.

I have read two more books.....

This one was very creepy....

And I loved the cover on this one...

I enjoyed this book too....a very easy read.

I have already started my next book.....that's now 8 books read towards my 26 in 2019 Goodreads Challenge...

Slowly, Slowly....

Good afternoon everyone.
I hope you are all well.
Well it's been a busy week at work and there has only been slow progress on everything I've done so far....craft wise that is.
Valentine's Day brought a dozen red roses from my lovely husband....

And I invested in a little 'Herdy' money box to help me save for my yarn obsession....

Happily I have managed to lose another pound in weight....so that's eight pounds so far....I have updated my little weight loss tracker at the side of my blog....
No books finished this week but I'm three quarters of the way through this one...

Very creepy...

Can you see my little 'Herdy' bookmark taking care of my page?

I Knitted A Hat....

Good afternoon everyone.
I hope you are all well.
I'm late posting this week as we were away this weekend.
We went to see Peter Hook at the O2 Academy in Leeds on Saturday evening....and I had a fabulous time....what a great night....loved it!!!
And of course I managed to get home in perfect time to watch my beloved rugby....
Another cracking win from the boys in white....I have shouted myself hoarse.....
Anyway this week I have managed to lose yet another pound in weight....again not a great deal but it's another pound lost.... I have updated my little weight loss tracker at the side of my blog....that's a total of seven pounds lost so far.
I'm quite pleased with this as my will power is 'Poor' especially when it comes to cake and chocolate.

I have also read another book....that's now 6 books read towards my 26 in 2019 Goodreads Challenge...

I enjoyed this book although I was half way through before it picked up any pace but a good read all the same....

I have almost finished my 2nd stitching project of 2019...

Little House Needleworks - Little Sheep Virtue no. 4 - Courage

Hopefully I can finish this one this week....

And finally I have finished knitting my hat...

This is the first hat I have knitted and I'm really happy with it. It had tiny glass beads in the wool and they look really pretty....only you can't see them very well in this photograph....and the best thing is it fits me perfectly too.....I stole the fluffy bobble from one of my old hats.

Ok, so that's my catch up for another week....

I will check in again next Sunday....all being well.
Until then have a lovely week.
Keep safe and warm....

I hope you are all well.
Here I am again....This Sunday posting definitely works for me...
So....
This week I have managed to lose another pound in weight....not a great deal but it's a pound less....I'll take that!!!. I have updated my little weight loss tracker at the side of my blog....that's a total of six pounds lost so far.

I have read another book this week....that's now 5 books read towards my 26 in 2019 Goodreads Challenge...

Another nice easy read...

I have made a start on my next stitching project from my WIP's list...

While watching my beloved rugby I set about a new cast on....

A Hat....

When have I ever knitted a hat....The answer is 'Never'!!!

I'll keep you updated...a nice simple pattern and I quite like the beaded wool too....

I also went to a 'gig' (my husband said I have to say 'gig'....)...at The Adelphi in Hull on Monday evening....We saw Public Service Broadcasting....another new band on me....I have to say I did enjoy it but I wish these bands would come on stage earlier....so way passed my bedtime.....I know....'Get with it Grandma'.....

This is my second 'gig' of the year.....Ohhh get me....

We saw British Sea Power on New Year's Eve at Louth Town Hall....I have to say I do like British Sea Power.....but don't tell my husband as this is one of his favourite bands....

Anyway that's my catch up for another week....

I will check in again next Sunday....
Until then have a lovely week.
Keep safe and warm....
