on me bike!

hya all,

just wanted to mark the fact that i went on me bike last night for the first time in over ten years! The pic above - my hood! its amazing what you miss unless your looking ain't it!

positive thing...

i'm getting all active in my attempt to loose a sizable amount of weight in a reasonably short amount of time (don't worry i'm not gonna be daft) i've done it before so there's no reason i can't do it again but last time i did it all with diet where as this time i'm doin the whole exercise thing as well, and what better excuse than getting out into the great outdoors with all this sun and such nice views at my door step!

Apedale was ace!

Hya all,

went on a photographic workshop trip out to apedale yesterday with fellow mind blogglers! I've never been there before twas really nice, def worth another visit!
turned out to be a totally top day, great weather, great views, greatest of all.... great company! top stuff!
thought i'd put a few of the pics on but its taking far too long so if you go to the following link there's a few on there!

Reasons to be cheerful 1...2....3 (& then some)

Hya all, just been inspired by etcb's latest post which features things top to ones self here goes..... - music - music - music - and did i mention music - gigs - friends (full stop) - sunny days - starting a laughing session for no particular reason - kids laughing - viewing art - viewing sculpture - doing art - doing sculpture - blue sky - looking at photographs of happy times - playin a new tune on the guitar - going for long drive to nowhere in particular with top tunes blasting and not having to curb the decibels when singing along - thinking! (believe it or not! ;-) ) -dancing to top tunes
- me cats
- feeling a genuine connection with people especially when i don't expect to!
- gerbra's (fav flower in the pic thats lasted since my birthday!!)

positive thing...... read the rest of the post! ha ha

let the sun shine in!!!

hya all,

my i take this opportunity to say what a difference a bit of sun makes!!!!

normally i'm not a great fan of the sun on account of being generally uncomfortable, hot and bothered and the fact that it reveals just how much weight ya need to loose mean as though everyone else is doing the whole beach babe goddess thang!
 but that said i'm loving it! just seems to make the whole concept of getting out of bed in the morning and then doing something worth while once your out of there that little bit easier!

postitive thing...

its sunny! let the sun shine in!!
