      Good for you BM.

      I'm so pleased Veggiechicken started this thread, it's inspired so many people to do things that they wouldn't normally do. We all get stuck in a rut when there's so many opportunities and so much fun to be had out there. Keep up the good work everyone.

            I know what next week's challenge is - getting an appointment at the dentist's and having my front tooth repaired A big chunk has just disappeared into a Nutty bar
            I thought it was a nut, so I crunched it! Hope its not a Crown job This wasn't quite what I had in mind for next week.

              I already know what next week will bring for me. Week 3 - I've volunteered for Samaritans. First meeting is on Monday. It's something I've been thinking about for a while, but I'm not 100% sure what to expect yet. Has anyone had any experience in this kind of thing?

                Week 2

                I made olive and coconut oil soap tonight. It's in the mold for now but i'll get some photos when I cut it.

                Need to get my thinking cap on for next weeks challenge.

                    For this coming week I've decided to start swimming again- every Friday.

                      Week 2 Challenge

                      Sort out the drawer of photographs.

                      The earlier photos (from 1981 onwards when I first had a camera in my teens) were in six scrap books stuck in with those little sticky squares, which had all lost their stick over the years, and so every time you turn a page over, all the photos drop off. The later photos where just in their packets stuffed in the drawer.

                      I invested in some new self adhesive albums from Wilko, and have spent all week going through the photos, labeling, arranging, culling (do I really want to keep 24 photos of assorted views around Tenby taken when I went on holiday with my friend Jane in 1989? No, I don't think so).

                      It's been a week of nostalgia, poignancy (and laughter), and now I have three nice tidy albums with everything nicely organised.

                      Before and after pics:





                      So week 2 challenge: done.

                        As we are due to have loads of snow in the mountains this week, its probably time to ski one of the off piste routes which we've not tackled before. It always makes me slightly nervous as you are away from people if something goes wrong. Fun but scary.

                        If the avalanche risk is too high, rest assured it'll get put off and I'll think of something else!

                            Week 2 photos

                            I think week 3 should be to fix up some sort of lighting to take pics in my kitchen when there is no daylight.

                            But here they are.

                            Second thoughts, they are so bad i'll just put one up.
