Day 4

Well, you certainly all brought the ugly yesterday!  Today the work begins in my house to replace our heating system which blew up just before Christmas, so I'm going to be surrounded by even more ugly!  To save my sanity,  today I want you to show me pictures of

pretty

My friend bought me my favourite flowers for my birthday, a huge bunch of tulips :)

Bring it! :)

Day 3

So, we've had a bit of an easy and predictable start so far. Today may be a bit more of a challenge for you!

The word of the day is

UGLY

Is there something you see every day that you think is ugly? What makes you feel ugly? What puts you (or someone else!) in an ugly mood?

Here's mine ... sometimes at night I can't be bothered to wash up and I leave it to the next day, even though I know it will be a very ugly start to the day!  Yes, sometimes I am a lazy slob!

Day 2

I was so happy to see you all playing along yesterday! There is no deadline on joining this challenge - you can start your year whenever you like!  And thank you for all the birthday messages, it made the day even more special x

Today's word is

new

Did you get an amazing new present for Christmas? Are you turning over a new leaf? Starting some new resolutions to create a new you? Whatever is new in your world, I want to see it!

Here's mine! My new diary for the new year ...

Day 1!

And the first word is, rather predictably,

CELEBRATE

Happy new year everyone!

Oh oh oh! I forgot! (see, those brain cells are dying off ALREADY!!!) Here's a flickr group for you to join and upload your photos to if you want to - not essential - but I thought it would be nice to see all our photos in one place. There will be a collagey thing on the flickr tab at the top of the blog :)

A little warm-up

I'm in a nosey mood! If you feel so inclined, please share your Christmas trees!

Here's mine:

One Month To Go!

And I need your help!

I've been looking for linky widget things to make linking to your blog posts easier and wondered if you would all mind helping me test this one out! I'm not sure if it's going to work the way I want it to ... NB IT MUST BE A LINK TO THE ACTUAL POST, NOT JUST A GENERAL LINK TO YOUR BLOG.

Please could I ask you all to post a photo, any photo, on the blog you'll be using for this challenge, add some text to it and then link to it here! We'll see if it works! Thank you all and I can't wait for the challenge to begin!!!

Grab yourself an (un)blinkie!

Oooh look, we have our own little badge! If you feel so inclined, please go ahead and add this unblinkie button thing to your blogs and signatures on forums (where allowed! Don't go breaking any rules now!). If you do add it anywhere, I would be hugely grateful if you could link it to the blog :)

Click on the graphic and save it to your computer, then you should be able to add it easily to wherever you fancy!
