What's In A Title?

The blog title is my take on my favourite quote from Stephenie Meyer's Twilight novel, when Bella realises she is in love with vampire Edward. My version is slightly less impressive than that in the book but never the less true:


"About three things I was absolutely positive, first I was an obsessed crafter, second, there was a part of me - and I didn't know how potent that part might be, that thirsted for beautiful craft materials, dies, stamps, papers, cardstock etc, and third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with scrapbooking and cardmaking"

Diet 2012 Time For Change



Happy New Year! I started the new year at our friends Chris and Jo's house, watching two Chinese lanterns trying to ignite a connifer hedge and the petrol station at the other side of the hedge. Chris, dressed as a blue Smurf was trying to put out both the lanterns whilst Superman, Batman, and Flash Gordon stood by watching and drinking beer!! Myself, that's R2D2 and my hubby, aka C3PO also stood by, assisting by taking photographs in case evidence was needed in the Arson charge against those bad, bad people who ignited the lantern in the first place aka blue Smurf, Weird Science Lady and Bananaman. Yes the party was fancy dress and the theme was characters from movies of the 1980s, what a laugh!!


Anyway, still being overweight and unhealthy after numerous diets and health kicks I have decided (again) that this year is the year that I will get fit and stay fit. As part of my Document 2012 scrapbook album I will be doing a monthly layout charting my success and I started with the above layout showing me today (in between rain storms) raring and ready to go. I also got myself a plain covered 2012 diary and covered it with patterned papers and some chipboard numbers and I will be using this to record what I am eating and any exercise and weight and inch loss throughout the year. Fingers crossed for a successful year.
