Extinct, lets hope not.

One thing I’ve noticed with when adding additional information to my photos on this website, is that so many of the wildlife photos have a status tag of endangered, threatened, or critically endangered.  This is possibly because of a lot of the animals are in zoos or sanctuarys only because they are endangered in the wild, however the doesn’t change the fact they in trouble anyway.

I love animals and most of my favourite animals are endangered species.  I was luck to find out about the EXTINCT programme currently on ITV.  EXTINCT – ITV 1.  This has been an interesting and sad programme seeing the plight of these animals.  Lets hope they can be saved and don’t become extinct.

Busy time again!

But this time I’m not busy with craft stuff, it Christmas stuff or work! 

Sunday I spent most the day on the phone.  Each time I tired to do something, the phone rang!  I worked out, that I got about 6 calls over about 3-4 hours!  I got all the xmas decorations out the loft and spent the rest of the tidying and hoovering to make it clear for the tree to go up.  Sounds like my place it a mess, it’s not, it’s just that there are normally some craft items still hanging around.  But not now!  I then got side tracked and put one off my photos up on the wall.  This covers an empty picture hook from a painting I took down in August or September!

Atleast last night I got the Christmas tree assembled and the lights on it.  It’s a start!  Not doing too bad with my xmas shopping and hope to complete it tomorrow.

I’m getting there, slowly.

Time to Decorate Again!

This time however, I not talking about normal decorating!

Having been put to shame with my lack of Christmas decorations, I am going to venture into the loft tomorrow to drag out and dust the Christmas tree.

I guess once this is done I will start to feel in more of a festive mood. Also next week I will hopefully be able to sort out a lot more of my xmas shopping, which will be a relief.  I also have some birthday vouchers still to spend as well.

I’ll have to see if I can find some mistletoe!!

A Time of Waiting

What with one thing and another, it seems that this is a time of waiting.

I have a few things on order at the moment and am waiting for them to turn up.  Still waiting for my Stereophotography items to turn up, waiting for xmas presents to turn up.  That’s the problem with internet shopping, buying online is great, but then you have to wait for the items, and make sure you are in incase they need signing for.

Wonder what the weather will be like this weekend?…
