Hello there goodnightlittlespoon readers, my name is Katyha, I blog over at lovekatyha. Bianca was so lovely to ask me to do a guest post while she is away getting married and enjoying time with her family and friends. For the guest posts Bianca has asked that we pick an idea from Keri Smith's 100 Ideas and while I struggled a little with finding an idea that was perfect for me, I eventually managed it.

59. List ten things you would like to do every day

Thank you Bianca for the honour of being able to fill in for you today. Oh and congratulations! My fingers and toes are crossed that your special day is super amazing and magical. I cannot wait to see the photos.

my life lately
[+] a bit of flower picking from my garden
[+] a bit of op shopping
[+] visiting baby sister for her birthday and baking her macarons
[+] meeting baby sisters pup (who scratched me every time I walked by)
[+] finally finding a speak & spell after many, many years of wanting one
[+] planting my avocado
[+] a little more knitting
[+] rejoicing that the salted butter caramel turned out beautifully...what a shame the macarons didn't :(

film corner


 

I am so behind in this, mainly because I haven't been doing too much movie watching. But this last week changed all of that.

A thousand words despite its very low rating was wonderful, I cried a little and laughed a little. Jack and Jill was terrible, Man on a ledge was very action packed and ok. One for the money was a little disappointing as I love Katherine Heigl, Wanderlust definitely not G rated and not one I would watch again ever, and Wrath of the Titans was amazing. Four men in the house these are the movies they love so although not my choice I have to admit it was quite good.

stationery making

third week of holidays...and man oh man do holidays go by quickly especially when you are sick. Not a very enjoyable time but at the same time I am extremely glad that I am not sick while going to class. I am so ready to be well so fingers crossed this (whatever it is I have) doesn't last much longer.

Spending time indoors due to sickness and the wet weather is crummy but this is what I got up to today....a little stationery making for a stationery swap I am participating in. Gathering a little inspiration from Bianca ;) every aspect drawn by me (and if you look closely you could probably tell)...my only question, is it too much pink?

tim tams and holidays

20120606_5842

I can't believe we are in June already! and for that matter I cannot believe my semester is finally over. It feels good despite being sick most of last week and this week, definitely not perfect timing but since I have finished assignments it doesn't bother me too much.

I finally ventured outdoors today feeling a whole lot better than previous days and tim tam fingers were very much in order, that and a little bit of knitting. But my diary is looking awfully empty apart from a doctors appointment tomorrow and a iridology test Friday my days are completely free.  YAY! Time to cross off some list items from my holiday to-do list. Some a little fun, others not so much

[+] clean behind fridge and washing machine
[+] dye hair (lots of greys) and apply Brazilian keratin treatment (lots of frizzy hair)
[+] visit new op shops
[+] buy film and do a little film photography
[+] paint my bedroom walls and hopefully living room & kitchen
[+] more knitting and definitely more crocheting
[+] watch some old movies
[+] mail writing
[+] and sleeping-in

Number nine is definitely a HIGH priority ;)
