The Best Thing I've....

Read | I'm getting myself the Game of Thrones books to read. I also want to fill in all the gaps in my Terry Pratchett reading as well.



Watched | I have finally caved and started watching Game of Thrones. You were all right, it is very good.

Heard | Really loving me a bit of Jenny Lee at the moment:

Also Courtney Barnett:

Made | Loads of makes on the go at the moment. Quilts, crochet, sewing and scrapbooking up to my eyeballs as usual in WIPs. A project I am most excited about is my studio Ghibli playset that I am making for my Niece's up coming second birthday. I am crocheting the Totoro characters and a large Cat Bus for them all to fit into. The patterns will be available for free on this blog.

So far I have completed a Chibi Totoro you can find the pattern here

Worn | Mainly enormous jumpers as it's starting to get chilly on the mountain. Also a lovely scarf that my sister got me for Christmas, a really wide and really long one. The way a scarf should be!



And Lastly ... I'm thinking about my to-do lists this year a lot. For Myself and for the boys.


For myself,

• Lose weight 
• Do my bookkeeping qualifications 
• One day trip a week with the boys 
• Get outside everyday 
• Go to the caravan more 
• Visit the Pratchett's in Oxford 
• Start playing a musical instrument again 
• Read more 

The boys list is more a list of the places I want to take them this year.
