<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Thank you for your interest and support in this, my first blog. I hope to see you over on "Head in the Clouds" - my new online space where I will continue to share bits n pieces of my life, loves and inspiration (but hopefully in a more cohesive way).</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Ok, bye.

I realise it's been a while, but I just thought I should check in and let you know that the reason things have slowed right down here is because I'm working on a new blog. Yep, I've decided after much deliberation that I'm going to start fresh and focus on a new blog that delivers what I'm trying to achieve, or is more like the blog I picture in my head when I think up ideas and such.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The decision came to me after realising that I have been working on this blog for a year and it still has a long way to go before it becomes what I have been visualising. Of course I could re-vamp this one, but I think it would be better for my focus to start afresh.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I'm really excited about this new blog! I hope you will come along with me to my new online home when the time comes. In the meantime, I'll keep you posted. :)</span><br />

Today it has been hot hot hot in Sheffield - Autumn it seems has disappeared and Summer is back in full swing! The parks are full of people having BBQ's and playing ball games. Me and Floyd has our tea outside (which we didn't think would happen again this year). Super!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Anyways, I'm back here today with more items for my wishlist. Check them out...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">January was when I started a few of my regular features such as the wishlist, inspired posts and the Sunday walk (which I need to do another of soon). I also wrote this short but fun post about <a href="http://cellardoor22.blogspot.com/2011/01/my-friends-cat.html">my friends cat</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I still have a lot of ideas for this blog. I want to post more things about my everyday life and my dreams and plans for my online shop. I want to make more of an effort with my photography, and I'm going to make a new blog banner. I want to post more pictures of my home, my city and myself. I'm going to be brave and take more self-portraits. This is all a learning process for me and I use this platform to experiment, so just as a forewarning - not everything will work!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I can't believe it... I was reading <a href="http://skunkboycreatures.blogspot.com/2011/09/sponsored-giveaway-little-luck-tree.html"><u>this post</u></a> earlier on</span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">where it talks about someone celebrating their one-year blog anniversary, so I thought I'd check to see when my first post was on this blog and guess what - it's tomorrow!! Completely by chance I have come across this bit of information, and now I don't know what to do with it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I might hold some sort of give away, but it will be a bit of a last minute thing. Has anyone any other suggestions? All ideas are welcome :)</span><br />

You may or may not have noticed that I don't post an awful lot of pictures of myself on this Blog. I do try, but I'm not all that great at taking self-portraits and I feel a bit silly asking the boyf to take pictures of me - I just feel a little vain and self-conscious posing in front of someone. Therefore I've decided to improve my skills and dedicate a little time to taking a good self-portrait</span>.<br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">As you can see I find it a lot easier taking pictures of 'bits' of me. These are fine, but I'm finding that the majority of my self portraits end up being like one of the above (also see my profile picture to the left!).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I like reading blogs where I can see what the person looks like, so I should make it my mission to add more (good) photos of myself to this one. I need to invest in a remote for my SLR camera, but in the meantime I will have to make do with the timer function and arms-length shots.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">If you are wanting to do something similar, I have read a couple of good posts on this very subject <a href="http://abeautifulmess.typepad.com/my_weblog/2011/08/5-tips-for-better-self-portraits.html"><u>here</u></a> and <a href="http://lunevintage.blogspot.com/2011/09/its-all-about-lookin-fine.html"><u>here</u></a> - take a look, they offer some great advice.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Cheerio for now :) </span><br />

I've had a crush on ol' Gwen since the days of 'No Doubt' when I used to prance around my bedroom singing my heart out and pretending to be her. I still think she's awesome (and with the cutest kids!). There's no doubt she has amazing style (ha - see what I did there), and I still stick on some of her pop-tunes every now and again and have a sing-along session and a boogie - B.A.N.A.N.A.S!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Love her! She's such fun.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Anyway, today I've been trying to catch up with old projects. I had to undo and restart a (secret) crochet project today as it wasn't turning out the way I wanted it to... I hate doing that, but I can be a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to things like that - especially if they're things for other people (which this is). I will show you the finished product when the time comes (it's for my step-sis who's having her baby in 3 weeks!! *hint*).</span><br />

For that reason I'm going to stick on a tune to cheer me up a bit and get me feeling motivated to crack on with some crocheting. So the tune I've picked is this little number by Caravan Palace.</span><br />

I took Floyd for a meal at the 'River Cottage Canteen' - Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's restaurant. It was amazing! We ate some really tasty grub. We also took a day trip to Lyme Regis - a sweet little seaside town on the Jurrasic coast. Here are a few of my instagram snaps of the day.<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">..</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">You can see them properly (or buy some if you like) <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/81245472/neapolitan-moustache-magnets?ref=pr_shop">here</a>. I have them in my kitchen at the moment - they're a great addition to my fridge. I love adorning the fridge with all sorts of pictures and postcards, and funky magnets are the best thing to help me do that!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I'm going away tomorrow for a mini-break, so won't be back to say hello until Monday. I hope you have a smashing weekend :)</span><br />

It's been really crazy weather today in Sheffield - the wind woke me up this morning and didn't really let up all day. How is the weather your way? It's turning cold now in England... I don't really mind Autumn - in fact I quite enjoy it - but I'm a miserable Minnie when I'm cold so I'm not all that excited about the approaching Winter.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Anyways, here's a tune I've picked to lighten up the evening. It's one I've been listening to quite a lot this past week - <i>Feist</i> with "sealion". Win.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">You can use washi tape in all sorts of decorative and creative ways; it's so versatile.</span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I'll be posting some ideas soon of different ways you can use it, so stay tuned.

We took two weeks off to pick up Betty and get her used to us. We had so much fun playing with our new pooch friend. Here are some pics of some of the things we got up to</span>...<br />

How was your bank holiday weekend (UK people)? Mine was fun and food-filled. We went down to Cardiff to visit some friends and managed to catch a food festival whilst we were there - lots of yummy stuff in and around my mouth!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The tune I've picked for today is from another one of my favourite bands - <i>Everything Everything</i>. I love the whole of their first album, but I've picked a track I think will get anyone going and put a bounce in your step.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So there you go - awesome yeah? Let me know what you think. If you like this you'll love the rest of the album; trust me.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I'm going to bed now as I'm pooped!! Betty woke me up at 5:45am howling in the kitchen as she needed to go wee really bad (I'd probably howl too - it's not her fault). So I was up early walking her in the rain and need an early night now to recuperate. </span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Up early again tomorrow though for work; but hopefully it'll go fast because we have some good friends coming over for the night who we haven't seen in ages! Then off to Cardiff on Saturday (early again)</span> <span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">for another friendly get together - plenty of food, wine, song and good times.</span><br />

Welcome to my new feature where I will be sharing music that I love with you every Tuesday in the hope of making you smile, have a little boogie or maybe show you something you've never heard before. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I obviously picked Tuesday because it's the best day (I was born on a Tuesday - "full of grace" - ahem!) and it has nothing to do with alliteration at all *wink*.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">So the first song I've picked is from one of my favourite bands' latest album...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I've been listening to this song loads ever since it came out and I'm still not sick of it. Hopefully I'm going to see them in September as they're playing in Sheffield - woohoo! Anyway, I hope you loved this as much as I do. Let me know what you think.</span><br />

I've just been randomly looking through bits and pieces on my blogger dashboard and noticed that I have written 99 posts to date... that means this is my 100th blog post!! This feels like a bit of a landmark for me - I know I've not been at this long, and I'm still learning and evolving as time goes by, but I'm quite chuffed that I've reached this number and noticed in time for me to give it it's own special mention.</span><br />

As promised I've put together a little post to introduce the newest addition to my family - Betty. She's the cutest little pug dog I've ever met and has been cracking me up non-stop since the moment we got her! She's 17 months old, so still quite young and full of energy. She has a great sense of humour (not sure if she realises yet) and is really sweet and well behaved.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Isn't she beautiful? I've become one of those people who talks to their friends about their pets all the time. I just can't help myself though - she keeps us so entertained! Honestly, I've never met such a silly creature.</span><br />

Wow it's been ages... much longer than I anticipated. I'm sorry. I honestly didn't think it would take this long to get back on track, but it did!
