My new bedroom.

Ta da! Here it is!



Its quite similar to my old one, only its way bigger and looks out onto the High Street. For those of you who remember this as the jamming room - some difference, eh? I love it. Its the best bedroom I've ever had, and its my favourite room in the flat so far.

Thats because my 'woolly' room isn't complete yet....

The room is a lot bigger than it looks in this photo. I didnt take any panoramic shots because I spent so long taking this one - all of the previous attempts had wee Luna with her leg cocked in the air licking her bits. Euurgh!

Another nice day - yay!!

Sunny days and wind turbines

The weekend is over and I'm glad to say the move went well. Lets talk about that another time though, more interesting things happened over the weekend. The sun was shining constantly!! Erm, thats it. Thats the more interesting 'things' that happened. It was awesome.

I went for a wee day trip with my homie-o, LW on Sunday. Fresh air and friendship is good for the soul.


Here is a view of the sea. I love the sea! The sun was out, and it was a lovely day, but it wasnt all clear blue skies. Some parts looked a bit muggy, while others looked BLUE.


This is LW hanging out of a gurret on the beach. Is it a gurret? Maybe its a turret? Hmm. I dont know. I will check this out once I have finished the post.

We left the beach and headed for the hills. We stopped off at a wind farm near Largs and took a wee daunder up to check them out close up.


I found it really eery approaching the wind turbines. I cant explain it, I get the same feeling when I walk near a huge electricity transmitter. I get overwhelmed by the size of the thing, and I have an odd feeling inside.


The closer we got to the turbines the more freaked out I was. I was actually scared. Proper, poop my pants kind of scared. I managed to get about 5 metres to it and laydown looking up. Phew! The wooshing noise of the blades rotating was strangley calming, yet it was still weird. LW went right up to the base of the monstrosity and hugged it. Grr, this meant that I had to get closer too.


Fear! 100% unjustified fear!

The blades are so high, they are NOT going to touch me. I know this. I KNOW THIS!! Yet, every time one came round I ducked!

We didnt stay long, we admired the view for a few minutes and promptly left - I had the same feeling that I get when I spend more than 5 minutes in a graveyard. A 'lets get the f00k outta here' kind of feeling. Weirdo!

The drive back was nice, we had some good old fine girly chat on the go and the windows were down letting the spring air brush past us.

We stopped once more for another view over Largs. Check it out:


Yeah!

The world is beautiful, and life is sweet. As a mutha funking nut.

My last night in G'hill.


Tonight is the last night in Chateaux De La LT.

Honestly? I'm pretty sad to be leaving it. I love my gaff! Out of all of the houses I've had since leaving home, this has been the only one that I have truly felt at home in. Owning it probably has something to do with it, I took a great deal of satisfaction in basquing in the glory that was my home once I had cleaned and tidied, and I loved how it looked when it was like this, unfortunately it didnt last very long. I'm quite messy!

I'll be happy  to get moved though. I love Love LOVE unpacking and finding new homes for things, and just admiring the amount of crap that I have acquired over the years. It will be interesting to place my much loved 'things' all over the place and slowly establish a new home. I hope this works ok though, I need to remember that Schmerc will be stamping his personality about the place too.....

I stayed at the new place last night, and i had an AWESOME sleep. My bed goes well in the new room, its newly decorated and so far devoid of clutter (wont last!). To  top it all off I woke up to glorious sunshine, and it has been a fantastically gorgeous day ALL day! Cue the instant happiness!

I wont have any time for weekend posting, so I guess I'll catch you next week. If anyone is in Paisley town and wants to lend a hand o'er the weekend - come on in!

If not, ciao!! For now.

C P Design and spring time :)

Thanks for your comment on my last post - you know who you are! ;)

I will change the font size and make it slightly bigger to help those fighting off old age.

I mentioned my friends blog last time.. www.cpdesign22.wordpress.com Check it out! Carlo very kindly created a post about some fabulous work he completed for me - helping me with the LT brand. It's awesome! He also wrote a very nice review of my blog. I'm so touched!

So, if you need any design work Carlo comes highly recommended by me. He takes a brief and works wonders with it, all in a timely fashion! What more can you ask for? He is a lovely chap too, if that was the 'more' that you would have asked for. he he.

On another note it is all over Facebook today that its the first day of spring. Yay!!

Hooray for spring! I love watching all of my solar powered friends get more energy and come alive, almost as beautiful as the flowers and the trees. It really is a magical time, I hope you all feel energised and have a spring in your step on this most wonderful of days.

Peace n Love Homie O's.

Blog layout - help required!

I am looking for your thoughts and opinions on my blog please.

I have customised my background and layout so much that its quite 'messy', I'm sure I'm breaking all of the rules of clean design, by having lots of swirly colours in the background. Should I change it to a more clean cut, eays to read, more professional looking layout/design?

I have just boggled my brain by looking at the options that are available.. another option includes a Dynamic view template that posts all of the posts on the home page in the style of a photo album. That looks quite cool, but it might become annoying over time.

If you actually read this, please please please take the time to send over your opinion. My friend Carlo has just created this blog: http://cpdesign22.wordpress.com/ I like it! He is using a different Blog site, but it gives you an idea of what I mean by clean cut!

On another note, I havent posted anything for a while as I have been very busy decorating, my old and new house, as well as packing up all of my stuff. The official move out/in date is a week today. I am wholeheartedly looking forward to the end of next weekend. I should be moved, unpacked, settled. Hopefully my normal life will resume quite quickly. I was kindly given a sewing machine by a friend, and I havent even tried it out yet. I cant wait to try it out! I'm looking forward to getting in a tangle trying to thread it. I'm looking forward chilling out with my crochet hook and wool. I'm actually looking forward to loads of things - come on next week - hurry up!!!

On a plus note, here is a photo of me and Schmercy pants when we were in Ardfern last week :)


Me. Being all shexy and that like, no?

Schmercopolopadopalous being all strong.


Ciao for now amigo's... have a good weekend :)
