Whimsical picnics and magical shoes!

Ahh I'm very aware of how badly I've neglected this journal lately! I shall make no excuses because true or not they're never very helpful and talk about stuff that has happened of late! As well as having a birthday (I'm getting old. My bus pass will surely be on it's way in the mail any day now...) and starting roller derby and going on vacation, I have been up to a few interesting things...

This past weekend I went to a picnic meet up in Sheffield. It was a super fun time and the weather stayed mostly fine for us. A number of photographs were taken and I haven't seen them all yet but here are a few humourous shots post-picnic.

Curse the sky!

I also had a lovely day with my mother yesterday. I bought a book that has been in my que forever and she surprised me by buying me the most amazing shoes. Ever! When I saw these shoes I was instantly enamoured with them. I have dubbed them my magician shoes because to me they look pretty and spooky and enchanted. My mum spoils me...

I have also been busy with other bits and pieces. As well as crafting I finally got around to cleaning and slightly rearranging my projects/placetohordefabric/dressing room! It is now dust free! I am preparing to deck the room out with more wonderful spookiness for Halloween too - my black tinsel is never far away.

I believe that's about all for now. I must return to making copious amounts of coffee and umming and ahhing over possible future hair colours...
