Insomnia Is Not My Friend

Ok so its now 7am. I've been in bed since 1.30am. But haven't slept a wink because my brain didn't seem to want to shut up! So at about 6.10am I grabbed a pen and some paper and started writing all the things in my head down. Funnily enough, none of it was that funny! Except the thought I had about vicky Pollard (Little Britian Character). Anyway. Insomnia is horrible! I hate it and yet the doctor wont give me anything for it! Boohoo I know! Get the tiny small small violins out! That is for this blog I just wanted to share that! Bet your to hyped up to sit still after reading this, eh?

Snow Joke

Yes, I'm blogging about the bloody snow! I live in Derbyshire, the capital of s**t weather. We had snow for 3 days running. Almost continually. In most places in the UK the snow has almost disapeared. But where I live it's still knee high. I like the snow. As long as it's only around for a few days. And I'm in doors. And I have no where I need to go. Unfortunatly the town I live in has only just started to run normally again.

Message to Snow: Go away now please and dont come back until boxing day. Thank you very muchly!

Anyway on a different but related note; the best thing about this weather is seeing people fall on their butts! I remember a few years ago I was with a few friends and one of them was showing off on the ice and boasting about how easy it was. Then she slipped and ended up doing the splits & split her trousers! I couldnt stop smiling all day!

By the way do you think they call it 'Doing the splits' because the person to bring it to the publics attention split their trousers while doing it? (I'm speculating as to if thats what happened!)

A Few Small Things

I just wanted to do a little blog inbetween house work... yeah I know right... borrring! Anyway here are the little small things on my mind at the present;

  1. This book counting thing I'm doing. (FYI I'm seeing how many books I can read in a year, its at 50-something now). Anyway, do you think I should count childrens books? If so I should add about 100 to my total.. or do you think thats cheating??
  2. Have you had one of those moments of.... Oh my goodness, why on earth did I say that? Im having one of those moments/days! Its so... cringe worthy!
  3. I had an email earlier about sponsorship. For a cook wear manufactuoror. The email said my blog has things in common with the website... ok yes I did once post a picture of a rice pudidng I made myself. But I am no culinary Godess! Might take up the offer though!
  4. I hate cleaning! Although it gives me a good reason to blast some Oasis out! Nothing more to add to that one!
  5. My mum just asked if my blog contains; 'why did the chicken cross the road?' jokes. Then stated that it was for a friend at work who would find them amusing... Hmmm

Alright I've wasted a good ten miinutes writing this blog so now I should go get on with the housework.

New Name, New Appearance

So those of you who read reguarly or postly will notice that other the past day or two the blog name has changed from The True Gift to Little Laughs Of Life. Andd also the appearance has changed from yellow to purple! The reason behind all the changes is that I felt the blog name didnt make sense when compared to the material it was currently hosting. So here we are! New blog in fact! Heres to continuing with the blog!
