Now after I have finished Ali's cow for the wwrr I am fighting with Pamela's little shoppe. I can't believe it: only a few more stitches and then I'll have finished the wwrr. I don't think I'll be able to another one in the next couple of months. We have a lot going on at the moment.

Oh, yes I have worked out why I am not loosing any weight on the Wii Fit plus. But I'm going to have to keep you all guessing for a little longer. I'll still will do the excercise though. Last week I only managed one day because Maisie and Mario were ill. Now I'm down with it. Don't you just wish the Winter will be over soon?

Have a wonderful weekend. (It is nearly over though)

Here is my latest finish: another Humphrey's Corner design. This one is called Baby talk. I'll soon have enough to make something out of them :-D


Well, I'm doing okay on the Wii Fit. Don't seem to be loosing any weight but at least I'm not gaining any either.

I still have to finish off the little "Let it Snow" sampler. I was going to do a cushion... but I'm not too sure yet. Cushions are really the only thing I CAN do without being too worried about showing myself up. Well, I will let you know what I'll decide.

Here is a photo of the Christmas stocking. Now comes the hard bit: how to finish it without spoiling it....
Right then. I have finally finished stitching Maisie's Christmas stocking. I'll put in a picture when the battery of my camera charged :-)

It is awful here today. Our road and Beech Road is covered in black ice and it is raining. You can imagine how difficult it is to walk on this. But we did make it to school even though it took us best part of 45 minutes (normally 20 mins) I'm dreading picking up time if that stuff is still down then. Charlotte has her last maths tuition tonight. So Maisie, Mario and me will have to hang around there somewhere. Lets hope the cafe on the main road isn't too busy.

My next stitching project will "Baby Talk" from Humphrey's corner. It reminds me of when Mario has a little chat on his red toy telephone!

The girls had two more days off school because the boiler at school was broken. But school is going to be open tomorrow morning. I have no idea how to manage to push the pram through this frozen mess. But what doesn't kill us will make us stronger.

I'm doing really well on the Wii Fit. I managed at least 30 mins every day but tomorrow I don't think I'll be up to doing much. I'm going to the dentist for a filling. This tooth was hurting since March but I was too tight to go (or maybe too afraid?) Well tomorrow I'll have to go. Poor Mario will be bored but what can I do?
