working on it

Yay! It's Naarmamo time again!

I have to say I think I've peaked already! I am so ridiculously proud of this, ridiculously .

I made a book! From scratch! Out of paper and glue and ribbon and stuff. I sewed pages and glued things (including my fingers - Superglue really does glue your fingers together in seconds.)

Oh but I love it! (I'm sorry, I know it's bad form to say things like that, but mostly my stuff is rubbish, so I'm happy!)

There are 31 double pages, so I am going to paste a picture or two of each day's Naart in there, so I have a proper diary/record of Naarmamo 08.



( And a couple more shots here... I can't believe *I* made this! )

( Starsky & Naarmamo = .. oh well lookit and see! )

*sorry!*

( Naart Day 8 -Still experimenting with watercolours )

nb in the truest sense of the word I may not actually *be* artistic - but Hell, I'm prepared to lie if it lets me look at Starsky's bum!!!

You should all applaud my willpower! - or pity me. I'm not sure which.
Starsky came - and I have done things today other than purely watch dvds!

I went on a proper walk with my friend and her mum's friend's mother's dog. We walked in nature with trees and grass and crickets chirping! We scrumped apples. I have big blisters now, but it was still rather fab. (The dog was a bit of a nuisence,I'm not really a dog person, so could have done without her, but it made us look more natural when we were looking for apples!)

I spent several hours trying to create a gallery for my naarmamo stuff ( I did: http://pics.livejournal.com/lolabobs/gallery/000051h3) but it's a bit crap, 'cos the 'taller' pictures are just showing the middle section and I don't know how to adjust that, and after the huge effort it took to rearrange them into the correct order I just gave up. Still a record of my Naarmamo experience is there for all to see.

I did some cleaning, and had a long bath and spoke on the phone several times.

AND I WATCHED STARSKY & HUTCH!

I have only watched a few - I think Starsky is much prettier with longer hair. I think they work so well together, and I can't possibly squeak about specific things here, 'cos I need to go to bed - but in The Fix (which was fantastic in every way) there was one particular moment - and it wasn't all the hugging and holding and embracing ( though that, of course, was wonderful), but Hutch is on a wall, kind of just lying there, and the look that Starsk gives him then is just - perfect.

Right. bed.
