My Week #25

Here is my week #25:

Monday

On Monday and Tuesday I was off work ill, I had a chesty cough (that my mum decided she wanted to share with me), so spent most of Monday and Tues in bed catching up on TV and watching movies.

Blog plan for Week 25

I'm finding that having these blog plans during the week helps push me to blog, so I'm gonna keep these up.

Tues + Wed

Wednesday, I was back at work, which was manic, we also had a form to send off recorded delivery. We managed to get to the cinema to see The Iceman starring Michael Shannon, Winona Ryder, and Chris Evans (review coming soon).

Tues

Tuesday, I was off ill and as you can see I caught up with some movies and some TV

Thurs to Sunday

Thursday was quiet, but I ended up going to the docs on Friday as I still had my cough. My parents went to London for the weekend so me and my partner had the house to ourselves so just vegged out infront of the tv.

Thurs

Thursday close up.

Thanks for tuning in

Teesside Park 19.06.2013

We went to the cinema to see The Iceman starring Michael Shannon, Winona Ryder, and Chris Evans, so while we were over at Teeside Park I thought I would have a little look in Staples and Hobbycraft if i was lucky.

Staples Haul

 I didn't really buy that much from Staples this time due to the fact that it's near the end of the month, but the coloured notebook was only 70p and the stickies I use to mark down when I've started a new book, and the clips I use a lot at work so must haves basically.

Hobbycraft Papers

I saw these papers in Hobbycraft and thought that they would make excellent dividers in Jack and Violet (and Saffy (purple Saffiano) if I can get her next month

Hobbycraft Sale

Hobbycraft were also having a sale on some clearance items so I managed to get some stickers, stamps and some gorjuss notelets for under a tenner.

Hobbycraft items

I also grabbed some more smash books, deco tape, ink pads, and stamps. ( a lot of this you will see in the coming weeks).

Thanks for tuning in.

My Week #23

Welcome to My Week 23:

I bought an insert from WHSmith's that was 2 days a page (as you can see i've reverted back to Jack and Violet has been put back on the shelf for the time being)

Start of Week 23

The start of the week had me covering at work (which was absolutely manic and a baptism of fire I can tell ya)

Tues + Wed

Tuesday I had training regarding a new scheme that is coming in at work and most of it was spent catching up with the tivo box.

I bought some coloured flash cards from WHSmith's as well as I thought that they would look quite good in Jack and would be good when it came to things that needed to be done that week (due to the fact that they are bright you can't miss them)

Thurs + Friday

Thursday, I went to my friends to pick up my partylite order and we ended up chatting till 11pm lol. Friday I was invited out by another friend for a night out.

Saturday, was shopping for Father's Day, managed to get everything that I wanted and ended up spending a small fortune in Paperchase (see post).

Saturday (under the sticky note)

On Saturday morning me, my partner, and my stepson ended up watching Wreck-It Ralph (a really good film).

Sunday (Under the sticker)

Sunday, me and my partner ended up going to Newcastle to see the Speedway team the Newcastle Diamonds, they were against the Ipswich Witches. The match ended up being a draw.

Thanks for tuning in

Metro Centre

A late post on stationery that I bought.

Me and my partner went to the Metro Centre a while ago and I just had to go to staples.

I'd heard that the Martha Stewart range was being discontinued at Staples so I just had to stock up on some of the sticky tabs. I also grabbed one of the light blue notebooks. I've kept a journal/ diary for years and recently I just don't seem to write as much as i used to when I was younger, seems life has caught up with me. So i thought for a grown up journal grab a nice Martha Stewart one while it was on offer.

For the eagle eyed Filofax spotters you will see the Violet A5 Domino, I got it on offer at £20 (I love Filofax but I haven't got the cash to pay full price (even though I may be tempted with the original in yellow). I also bought a plastic A5 folder to go in the back so I can put in sticky notes, sticky tabs, paperclips, and other things.

We went to Ikea and they had this coloured paper block (orange, white, and silver) I thought it would look nice in Jack

I also went to Paperchase and bought some more Washi Tape (I wanted the blue one with white stars but there was none in store, will have to order online). I also grabbed some pencils (just because they were brightly coloured)

Thanks for tuning in
