Hi Veronica mars, I'm a long time lurker on the diaries I love them. In particular I'm coming out of lurkdom to say how much I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your diary and blog - they are simply brill! Goes back to lurking.......:0) x

Very talented? Well I think we all know that is a lie, but I accept flattery in all forms Mummy+2 so thank you very much! :beer:

Everything I have been doing has literally to save money or revive something I already have! Got so many projects planned for when the good weather starts... IF the good weather starts...

Hi Maryland cookie - what a good name! :T What lovely things to say, thank you very much!

I want to wake Mrs Mars up and ram this computer in his face and say "see, Maryland Cookie loves my diary AND my blog!" But I feel at that point he might actually think he has lost me to the fairies and squirrels that roam my head. :rotfl:

Gotta love a lurker. It's not related, but since we are sharing...I'm a part time stalker. Seriously, I am. I don't think you believe me, but I really am...

Since we are on DFW, I feel I should note I checked one of my credit card statements and the balance has reduced to £2,250! :money:

inspired by Fraggle Rock, I've changed my Avatar to a Highland Cow, because if there is one thing I love, it's a Highland Cow.

I'm loving your new cow - and you are talented!


I can understand you don't want any neighbours after the experiences you've had. Sounds terrible.

Love the blog veronica mars, i'm doing the same re - de clutter and making things to save some pennies! I'd be really interested to a post of the other glass things you have painted, i was thinking of osmething along those lines for presents or wedding gifts too!

Hi All :j

Thanks for dropping in!

I actually can't describe how awful things were for a while if at first.... I have vowed that I would rather live in a caravan in someone's driveway than live like that again. People might not believe me - but I am 100% serious.

Thaaaaaaanks Staple 28! I am going to a wee wedding set for a evening wedding I could not make (I still think you should give a gift even if you cannot attend) so will TRY and take some detailed pictures. Going to go with the grey, pink and white as that was the bride's colours! Plus I think it will look good on the glasses.

Today's post though was how I melted bits of old candle and made a candle out of a jar: http://lifeatthelodgehouse.blogspot.co.uk/

Hello DFWs!

How was everyones weekend? Here is a summary of mine:

• I won a free dinner (and a free starbucks) - YUM (one pitiful picture on my blog).
  
• Had trip to IKEA - to assist with getting my life/junk in order.
  
• Fixed a brooch (also on blog).
  
• Had a nice day at my parents for Father's day.
  
• Went a 12 mile cycle and a 4 mile run.
  
• I'm now chilling on the sofa with Mr Mars watching Red 2 with a cuppa :coffee: and some lemon pie!

Got a lot on next weeks, so here are my goals:

1) Get packed and organised for weekend away next Friday night (sounds simple, for someone who lives life in chaos, it is not ).

2) Get new passport on Wednesday (appointment booked - need to get pictures)

3) Send form for new drivers licence.

4) Send mobile off to get fixed.

5) I have signed up for a race in August, sooooooo want to try and go running every morning next week.

6) Weight myself. Been enjoying myself post wedding TOO much! :beer:

I think that's it!

I stalk everyone Maryland Cookie! Anyone I want to be like. Usually frugal people I know, who I think are super cool, yet I know they are frugal with their cash... or alternatively people who are super organised. They are also in my stalker !!!!!! collection. :rotfl:
