Day 9. TTF.

Day 9 of Three Things February. Wednesday 9th February.

01. Finding. Being told my mp3 player had been found alive and well in the glove box of the car. I haven't seen it since October so very pleased to get all my cheese back.

02. Bracelets. I have a wedding fair coming up in a couple of weeks. Spent most of the day twisting small pieces of silver into smaller pieces. Resulted in some beautiful sparkles ready for some beautiful brides.

03. EdTweetUp. Went along to my first Edinburgh Tweet Up at Illegal Jacks. Had a great night, tasty chilli and got to meet the real life versions of lots of lovely Edinburgh tweeters.

Day 8. Sleep, Read, Eat.

Three Things February was started by Sarah Rooftops. If you want to read 3 things by more people you can follow the #3thingsfebruary hashtag on Twitter.

My 3 things for today are

01. Lie in. Didn't get up till 0830. Lovely.

02. Emails. Got a much awaited email this afternoon. Can't say exactly what it was but I've been waiting on it for 3 weeks. Made me very very happy.

03. Dinner. My lovely husband had dinner on when I got home. A lovely beige meal of scampi, cheese & onion rolls and garlic bread.

Day 7. Three Things.

Day 7 of Three Things February. Monday 7th February.

01. Gardening Book. Today I bought Gardening Through The Year, its a month by month guide of how to look after your garden. I have no idea what to do so bought the book with the simplest steps I could find, this one is excellent. A lot of my family are great gardeners so hopefully gardening skills are hereditary.

02. Free Surprise Food. Nipped out of work for 5 minutes to get some lunch. When I got back there were 2 mini burgers a sandwich and a drink sitting on my desk. Lovely.

03. Snow. It snowed again.

Hungover Three Things.

Day 6 of Three Things February. Sunday 6th February.

01. Bacon, Tattie Scone Butty. On toast with far too much ketchup and dripping with butter. Mmmm the perfect breakfast after a late night.

02. Columbo. Perfect Sunday afternoon viewing.

03. Birds. Watching the wee birdies in the garden eating the peanuts. Happy.

Wiiiiiiiiii.

This is my Three Things February for Saturday. Running a wee bit late cause yesterday was housewarming day.

01. Housewarming Party. Lots of lovely people, many that I hadn't seen for ages. New babies we'd never met. Lots of fun and lots of laughs.

02. Wii. We love Wii Party.

03. White Russians. With a Woozle twist, yummy. Suffering for it this morning though.

Day 4. More T's.

Friday 4th February. Day 4 of Three Things February. You can find more posts by people taking part in #3thingsfebruary by following the hashtag on twitter.

Today has been a pretty rubbish day. Lots of things went wrong but I have to write about happy things.

01. Tunnocks Teacake. Yummy, wasn't meant to open them till tomorrow but needed a sugar fix.


02. Toast. Breakfast of toast with lots of butter, black pepper and balsamic vinegar. I know that sounds weird but it is so good, I've eaten it for years. Try it.

03. Toms. We have 2 neighbours called Tom. Both are lovely and came round to help me with todays leaking window disaster.

Turtle & Pals.

Thursday 3rd February. Day 3 of Three Things February. You can find more posts by people taking part in #3thingsfebruary by following the hashtag on twitter.

01. Turtle. My poor wee turtle in the garden is falling apart. When he came out of the kiln he had already lost a leg, but now his face is falling off. That's a bit sad but he still made me smile when I saw him in the garden. This picture is from a few weeks ago, less snow now but more flakey turtle skin.

02. Photographs. I was looking through our computer albums this morning to find pictures to fill some of the many photo frames we seem to have lying around. It seems we have been given a lot of picture frames, and never seem to have got around to filling them. It was lovely looking through old pictures of smiley people and happy times.

03. Bus Stop Lady. Some people are so friendly. Had a lovely chat with the lady at the bus stop while we waited in the monsoon for the #44. She told me all about her loft, her welly boots, her £10 boots which had lasted 5 years and her trip to Jenners. Brightened up 5mins in the rain.

Trainspotting, Twirls & Twitpics.

Wednesday 2nd February. Day 2 of #3thingsfebruary

1. Trainspotting. We're just back from the 15th anniversary showing of Trainspotting at the Royal Scottish Academy. I won tickets last week on the radio, was really chuffed as I hardly ever win competitions so was really pleased to get a phonecall saying I'd won. From the reaction of some of the audience I would say there was a fair few people at the viewing seeing it for the first time. Seeing it on the big screen really did make such a difference, the last time we had watched it had been on VHS. What's VHS I hear you say?

02. Twirls. Currently my chocolate addiction is Twirls. I love them. Only one eaten today, but it was good.

03. Twitpics. Today I learnt how to do Twitpics for the first time. Turns out its ridiculously simple. Must not get carried away uploading rubbish now I've discovered how easy it is. Take picture >> Share Picture >> Select Twitter = Done.
