My pet spider!

It seems we have a pet spider in our house. We saw the same size spider in our bedroom last week but then scared it away. Today I went to get the hoover from the corner and there it was again, same huge spider! This time I managed to snap him before he ran off. Seriously this spider is HUGE!

Anyway, today I started with the best of intentions. My new goal - to iron, iron, iron. My ironing pile is all the clothes we own apart from what's ironed and put away, about half dozen items in the laundry basket and some in the dryer. Can't you tell I hate ironing!!!

Anyway, I'm not moving any of it until it's all done and put away. Even if it takes me the rest of the night! I got way laid earlier and cleared out and re arranged the cupboard in the spare room. Which is also one of my goals but for another day. Oh well, it's done now. At least I managed to get all the holiday stuff in one place on top of the wardrobe. All the 'memory box' stuff in the cupboard along with my various folders and finally, the bottom of the cupboard is my new hiding place for all the stuff I keep for crafts/junk modelling. Craig hates me keeping boxes and bits. Now he won't notice. He never goes in that cupboard lol!

Well I better start on the ironing or Craig won't have no where to sit when he gets home!

2. How long does it take you to eat lunch? Depends, usually about half hour.
3. Caffeine or decaf? Caffeine
4. Chicken or beef? Chicken
5. Pen or pencil? Hmmm...pen I think.
6. Autumn or spring? Autumn. I love the colours of the leaves.
7. Baseball or basketball? Neither. Football :)
8. Survivor' or 'The Amazing Race?' Don't have these in the UK either lol!
9. Come up with one question I can ask our Monday Madness participants in the weeks to come. Chocolate or biscuits?

If you're Craig DON'T LOOK!!

I'm SO excited! Friday I went and had my wedding dress fitted. I haven't seen my dress in ages so it was really nice to see it and try it on again. It needs quite a bit of length taking off it as I'm such a shorty LOL! I got to bring my veil and tiara home too. My veil is even nicer than what I remembered. I haven't got pics of my veil yet but I will at some point.Here's a pic anyway:

White Cliffs of Dover

So last week we went me, Craig and his mum to visit his bro and family. It was the first time I'd met them. I had to get used to people calling me Auntie Azzie or Auntie Angharad! My niece to be, Sydney, is an absolute gem! She's so polite and very sweet! She's coming up to 3 years old but you wouldn't think it from looking at her. Here's me, Sydney and her mum Claire at Dover Castle:

We all had a wonderful day at Dover Castle. It was the only day when the weather was glorious! I also got the chance to ride on one of Claire's Shire horses! They're huge! It's the only thing we didn't get photos of actually. It was a really nice break away altogether. Oh and we were fed really well!! His bro is a chef and Claire is a great cook too. It was like I'd died and gone to food heaven! Anyway, I'll try and upload all my photos to my album tomorrow for people to nosy at!

Apart from that I'm having a real horrid week but I won't go there or I'll be here all night. 'Til next time enjoy the view:
