'Christmas Tree, oh Christmas Tree'

Hello DECEMBER,
Had such the chrismassy week this week! Think I have all my presents ready to go and wrapped up all pretty. I put up the tree at the weekend and took some pics to share with you guys because it’s just so pretty. My mum has been collecting decorations for years and I love the snowy icy theme. Also I love putting up the tree with my mum and we had a moment when we thought about how this probably will be my last Christmas living at home. Both exciting and a little sad. Think ill have to pop back next year and still set up the tree with her though. The boys in my house are no longer interested but I love getting it all just right… bit of a neat freak I knooooow. Loved listening to Christmas songs and singing along while we decorated. Really makes me start to feel Christmassy with the lights all warm in the evening.

Started the chocolate calendar this week too!.. and went to maccas and tried their cookie latte! All the yummy things!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

This weekend I have really started to get back into my crafting. I have always really enjoyed anything artsy since I was a small child and I thought I would try my hand at water colour painting and I have really started to enjoy it. Next week I will probably post about my hand made Christmas cards that I have made for my family. Also I have started to do a Christmas (shopping ye olde scene) puzzle which is 1000 pieces and frankly my lack of patience has already made me had enough of it… must keep going... will update on progress.
This is my last week of the autumn term at uni so it’s the last push to get all those assignments in and then its FINALLY the Christmas holidays!!!!!!!!!! I have so many exciting things coming up like a visit down to see my boyfriend, a visit from a friend in Australia and going to Bristol for a night away which I am really looking forward too.
Have you all set up your trees yet and whats you favourite theme? Icy? Red and gold? Anything fun planned for the lead up to Christmas?
See you next week with Christmassy crafts!

Lozzy :)

Autumn reflection

Happy Monday folks! Where has this last week gone? In fact, how has autumn nearly come and gone! Scarfs, candles, pumpkins, warm drinks and leaves, this time of year is so lovely. This season is always one for getting back into the swings of uni/school work and coming to terms with the fact that summer is now a distant memory, the nights draw closer and the weather gets more and more dreary with each coming day…. Yay? But after a few years of study, I feel like I have got into the balance of life/work but every year September brings around the challenge all over again. With what feels like mountains to do, sometimes the things I enjoy seem to slip. So, having just been set 5 projects all due by December, I thought now would be a good time to outline what I find are the best ways to manage those stressy times but still get what needs to be done… well… done! 1)       Lists – an old but true suggestion. Write everything down. The stress of forge...

Just keep swimming

Hello hello, Heres my first blog post. Seemed fitting to start something new on the 9 th of October…. Anyone? Well I’ve been having the burning desire to chit chat and document my thoughts, ideas, mishaps, adventures and maybe even a sprinkling of advice for good measure. So here we go. Strap in folks. This is definitely going to be a bumpy ride so bear with me…. Well happy Monday. Today consisted of my theory driving test which phew I passed! Whoop whoop for me. But as anyone who knows me knows all too well, my stress levels are something that without… well…. I wouldn’t be me. So with stress levels still high but with a sense of success seeping in, I plodded through the ever coldening (not a word but should be) English weather to catch my train. Always busy. Like its midday on a Monday. What are you all doing. Anyway as I slumped into a chewing gum covered seat I rested my arm on the arm rest. But it wasn’t an arm rest. It was a poor unsuspecting middle aged mans knee wh...

Autumn at the Arboretum

Hey all, I went to Westonbirt arboretum  again this year and loved it just as much as the first time. The crunching of the leaves, the sun through the blazing leaves and a bitter breeze on my face. It was lovely to have a day away from everything. We got wrapped up in our woollies and braved the cold day and really was not disappointing with the array of colours. A time to really relax and just be in the moment. How hippy-fied of me… We spent the day looking at so many beautiful autumn colours, drinking hot chocolate and eating doughnuts! My boyfriend ( dark_matter97 ) and I took lots of pictures while I was there and thought I would share a few;   Happy Halloween and I hope you all have had a great autumn thus far, Id love to see any autumn pictures you have taken this year! Love, Lozzy
