OOOOOOOW!

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! My shoulder kills! I have just finished practising "The Eye Of The Tiger" with three of my brothers and two of my sisters. altogether the six oldest kids in our house playing music. One brother on the drums, one brother on the bass guitar , one brother playing the melody line on a guitar, and two of my sisters playing on the keyboard. And yours truly playing lead guitar. shall I tell you how much it hurt? Okay! It hurts a lot the shoulder strap shows no mercy to its owner, but seems to be intent on digging through the shirt sleeve on my shoulder, and once it's accomplished that , through my skin ,through the muscle , bone .... *shudders the mental picture is to grisly to think about long*. Any way enough of the moaning. Sorer muscles will heal, and besides what are sore muscles to the joy of having had a very enjoyable time playing the song near perfect with sibling in our loft? Yes the song is going really well and i am enjoying playing lead . And after all that playing I have a Bon Jobi song going through my head!!!! I hope all your music playing/practises are going well . And now I'm going to read book four of "The Obernewtyn Chronicles" . LOVE this series .

I'M WILD ABOUT.......??????

Dickens. Doesn't that name send your spine tingling with anticipation to read a book by the said great author Dickens? I always get a tingly feeling just before I read Dickens . And it doesn't just happen with Dickens any other book or author that is one of my personal favourites does the same. (Almost.)
There is something about Dickens , maybe it's his writing style , maybe just the brilliancy of his stories , or maybe a personal feeling I have of which I don't yet know the meaning.
I like Jane Austen's books but when I have a Dickens I'm reading my poor cousin gets neglected. And in fact in the long run , well,I'M WILD ABOUT DICKENS!!!!!!!! *ducks and dodges the rotten fruit being thrown at her by furious Austen fans*
I'll say it again shall I? I'M WILD ABOUT DICKENS!!!!!
Yours Truly almost died the other week when two younger siblings went to the movies to see the new *drum roll* ..... "CHRISTMAS CAROL"!!!!!!
I'm dying to see this and I must read the book again . And also get some other Dickens books. So, yes Austen is brilliant and I enjoy reading her books and really enjoy them but.
Dickens .What wonders that man wrote!!!
I LOVE DICKENS!!!!
Here are some pictures of the illustrious author of whom I am a very very loyal fan.

Champions.

My sisters and I have just recently started having " champions".Which are favorite male characters out of a film or movie. Eden's is "Farid "from the Inkheart Trilogy, Vellvin's is "Sir Gawain" from the squires tales, and mine is Dustfinger from the Inkheart Trilogy. These champions may only stay champion for a day or even an hour Dustfinger has been mine for weeks.
And just because he is my current champion here are some pictures of him.

I AM ALIVE BELEIVE IT OR NOT.

Okay I'm not dead, and I have not been ill .Last weekend and early this week were spent cleaning ,for the real estate agent to come and take new photos .
So we did a big house clean . And after we finished cleaning it only took her TWENTY minutes to take the photos.
Which seems very unfair to a large family who stressed themselves out to make their house presentable for photos . Alright we did feel very good after we had cleaned .
Which is why I did not do "A Damsels Daybook" earlier this week. I am planning to pre-publish some blog posts this week . So thank you for your patience.

Beauty In My Week.

These are my pictures for "Beauty in My Week". I was unable to do it last week because there was no computer spare. Anyway,these are my pictures for this week. I like the first one because it reminds me of my sisters and I doing things together.And also because of the wonderful feminine outfits. And also because there all outside together.



I like this one because it looks like the mother is just enjoying being with her chil and the child looks like right now its mother is the only thing that matters to him.And also because it looks warm outdoors. I don't know what there called or who their by or any thing about them. Except my mother is planning to use the first image for something for me and my sisters. She will be doing a post soon so keep an eye on her blog.
