Project 365 Week 6 of 2014

Project 365 Week 6 of 2014 The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseProject 365 Week 6 of 2014 The Oliver\\\'s MadhouseYay a full week with no sickness from anyone in the household, so a much better week for us!

Saturday 1st February – A win at the hockey match in the morning and some lovely pampering time in the afternoon trying some stick on nails.. not my normal colour but hell a girls got to take pampering where and when she can get it!

Sunday 2nd February – A candle burned bright all day remembering Matilda Mae

Monday 3rd February – Ollie has a day off so we head to a furniture warehouse to browse Sofas, Ours has had far too much mistreatment and so it’s getting ready to be replaced, so an hour browsing while Joshua tries them all!

Tuesday 4th February – No matter where I look this week I have bulbs springing into life and its making me crave springtime even more.

Wednesday 5th February – I have no idea how to make these Olive trees stronger. Last year around the same time the other one did this and subsequently snapped in half, now this one is attempting the same thing .. its like it’s trying to escape!

Thursday 6th February – I am a shoe zone ambassador and as part of the review this month I got to browse and spend in my local store, I like these shoes but thought I had better go for pair far more suitable to the wet weather!

Friday 7th February – On Thursday evening I had the most amazing pastry plat/pie type meal at my friends Stacey and Simon so taking the basic idea I tried one for Ollie but with a middle that I knew he would love … fajita! although it was not very aesthetically pleasing it was delicious!  … thanks Stacey and Simon!

    Glad everyone is well now. I am so looking forward to spring too and seeing those spring flowers. Love that nail colour too. I have no advice on the olive tree but with all this wind I can’t blame it for doing that! I see I’m not the only mad woman still awake – really must go to bed now though!

    Lucky you having bulbs coming up – just keep your well deserved pampered nails away from the garden dirt!

    we noticed signs of spring on our walk round the village this week, it is coming. Not really had much of a winter right enough.
    Those shoes are very pretty, be nice for an occasion.
    Have you tried a cane to tie the tree to for support , or turning the pot round so it has to grow back towards the light ( if thats what it is doing)

      I keep attaching the tree to the a cane and a metal rod but it keeps blowing down 🙁

    pretty nail colour! i agree about those shoes they are lovely but totally unpractical for this weather and time of year!! i am enjoying seeing all the signs of spring too – the tree which overloks ours is budding at the moment and i cannot wait to see it in full bloom . xx

    Love the picture of the candle burning for Matilda Mae, beautiful gesture.
    I really like those shoes too, perfect for when we get some nicer weather – may have to go and find a Shoe Zone.
    Also, yay for you all being sickness bug free this week, long may it continue! x

    Those shoes are very pretty.
    The olive tree needs a bigger stake and tying up. Old tights are good to make ties – just cut circles from old pairs.
