I haven't blogged for ages now. Sorry to all my avid readers (all 2 of you ha ha)!! The Wallace family are getting back into the swing of things post Christmas so not a lot to report. I think I have had some January blues (always happens - probably because I love Christmas so much!!) and I think I have post 40 blues too! Last year was so busy, fun and exciting when celebrating being 40 and doing all those 40 things, I am sorry its over! But that's why I started this blog and gave myself a few extra tasks. Need to snap out of it - its February tomorrow so no more January blues!! ha ha

Let me update you on a few things that have been happening. Last week was Burns night and being that Iain is half Scottish and the children are therefore a quarter Scottish I decided Haggis was in order (Julie and I spend a lovely morning in Costco sampling lots of food including the Haggis I went on to buy!). Iain and I liked it, George ate it and Sophie tried a small bit and said it was spicy. We told them it was mince to start with and confessed at the end. We didn't need to do this as they knew all about it, as apparently it was discussed in Assembly!

Last Saturday we went shopping - so George could spend his Christmas money. We came back with some new furniture instead!

4 new leather dining chairs

Conservatory sofa - that can live outside - that special Rattan effect

 

 

We are very pleased with ourselves as they were both bargains from the Debenhams outlet shop! Must go back for more goodies!!

 

Iain took the old couch to the tip (thank you Mark for vehicle big enough to take couch) and brought back some loft boards (thank you Mark for the boards you were about to tip). So much for de-cluttering!! But I am hoping the loft boards will mean we will sort out the loft and bin some things? That's the plan for this weekend! The excitement is too much!!
