Clara!

I've been following the blog underbaraclara now for a while and Clara's such a cool creative gal, with spunk and...*not finding the right words* ...well I think she's just plain awesome...! :D Even though I don't always agree with her ideas she's inspiring in the way that she has an opinion on things... She shines...! ;)

Her inspiring (initially "only" a fashion) blog has gotten her work on the radio (sharing old-fashioned "housewifely" tips on everything from cleaning to baking and sewing) and now recently her own magazine - which is basically her blog put into paper. I "missed" ordering the first issue of it but the second one I wasn't going to miss! Super handy to pay via text message and it arrived in the post today! Yay! :) I have only flicked through it so far, and still managed to be inspired, but will take time to read every single word before bed...


I also got my English C book in the post today, blah!, not even opened it yet! ;) I really should get started with it as I'll be working and studying at the same time... :/

Today's been a lovely day outside, sunny and warm (that 22C and about 71F, warm in my book! ;) ), though I've been feeling quite rubbish and stayed home from school because of it... Thought I was getting the kiddies recent tummy bug but nope, not yet at least! My stomach been growling and making horrible noise all day but still behaving well... *fingers crossed* that it's just been a bit moody and not unwell! :)

It's amazing how quickly the leaves have turned green in the last few days! From tiny buds to gorgeous lime-green leaves. It'll not be long now 'til the the apple tree blooms...! :D Love, love, love...!
Stephen even mowed the lawn today, the for the first time of season, it could probably have been done last week ;) but I looove the scent of freshly cut grass...

Now I'm going to make myself a cup of tea and plonk myself on the sofa, reading my Clara-magazine!
