After a 14 hour long trip, and a day fuelled by coffee, cigarettes and junk food, we're back in Manchester. Crowley the Cat is beside himself with happiness and neediness (poor little kitty. My heart breaks when I think of the time he spends alone when we're not here), meaning very little sleep as he takes turns in sleeping on our faces. Poor cat.
Still no word about the place we'd like to book for our wedding, which is making me not a little nervous. We don't really have any more chances of looking for other alternatives, so this is it. Damn it. On a good note, the postcards/wedding invitations have been purchased. On a bad note, the sample of the wedding favours (hand painted tile fridge magnets) I ordered that was supposed to look like a swallow ended up looking like a mackerel with wings. So now I either send the lady some drawings of what I want, or I look for other favours. Dang.
Started my diet today. No, wait, you're never supposed to say the D-word! Lifestyle change, then. Whatever. I'm using Weight Loss Resources again, since it's pretty fantastic. The only bad thing (no fault of their own) is that eating ready meals makes it so much easier to count calories, since you don't have to punch in all the ingredients of every recipe you do every day. But then again, I have the time. Just stop being lazy, Vanda.
Not so much with the crafting lately, but I do have a new thang: Project Almanac. It's basically a year-long photoblog, with one photo a day, from Birthday to Birthday. It's been fun so far, and I needed to get into photography again. I needed to do something creative again. So I am!
(The photo was taken a couple of weeks ago at the Moinho de D. Quixote in Sintra. It pretty much illustrates why I love Portugal so much. It's one of my favourite places in the world.)
Mackerel with wings now that is a picture to conjure up. Poor you, good luck with the diet er sorry lifestyle change.

Hello Vanda, I was tagged to post 6 weird things about myself which I have now done. I was asked to tag 6 other people and I hope you don't mind but I have tagged you. You don't have to do it if you don't want to but maybe you would like to check it out over at Willow House.
