Hellooo, I appear to have lost my blog mojo and my creative mojo, what is going on!!! Today I am not overly talkative, funny for me!! but I really must get back into blogging as I do love it!L went back to school (with a new hair cut and highlights!), J is back at college, and I am finally starting to get my house back into a bit of order. The weather has definitely changed and its like Autumn, although its sunny today!
L has to get that new jab for cervical cancer in two weeks. I don't know how I feel about it really. I will have to do some more reading up on it.
Sadly our hamster Clover died mid week. I was in the middle of watching 'Lost in Austen' (was very good) when I realised she was not out as usual. She was ill through the night so made her comfortable, and she had gone when we got up in the morning. L was really upset. I made a little padded pouch to put Clover in and embroidered her name on it too. Then J and L took her to the park and buried her. Aww they don't last long these mini pets!
Here are some of my car boot finds (finally got the camera batteries off J)
Some glass Jelly moulds for £2.50 (the lot).
Lots of knitting needles for a £1... need to learn to knit properly now!
A tea light lantern for a £1.
And a very sweet card for 20p. 
I am getting quite fond of these car boot sales, though I am very good and I don't buy much as I already have far too much stuff in my house! I have also been given two awards, thank you so much Louise and Twiggy! This one is from Louise.. I too love your blog Louise.
And this one is from Twiggy!
As I am feeling a little blue today.. and lazy, I am going to pass it on to all of my blog friends who have stuck around with me while I go through stuff and always cheer me up when I need it so that means you... and you, you you and you and most definitely YOU!!!

Sorry to hear about little Clover.
Afraid I was a little disappointed in Lost In Austen - didn;t find the modern girl who switched (see I can't even remember her name!) very engaging - Think I would have preferred seeing Lizzie Bennett in 21st century London! Oh well I shall give it another chance, maybe it will grow on me!
Congrats on the very well-deserved awards!

Sorry to hear about your little hamster. It's never easy to lose a pet no matter how small :(
Those are some great car booty finds. I love those jelly moulds!

It's a funny time of year, I'm sure your mojo will return! Bootsales are great, they finish in my area at the end of September so I know I'll only get to a few more this year (even less if this blooming rain continues). I like what you found. Have a good week.
Pop over and have a look at my creative mojo instead. Giveaway announced. I like the little pictures that you use on your posts.
Hi Jennie
Sorry to here about Clover, we get so attached to them and they are so cutsie too.
I love your car boot finds.
I think change in weather doesnt help mojo!. I have been a terrible blogger for a few months now and always mean to blog better!. I think its being a woman , we should blame it on hormones!. I know it does seem scary thinking about jabs as they seem so young , and you just want them to be safe and do the best
take care x Dom
well done on the two awards! Sorry to hear about your hamster. hopefully your mojo will return soon so you can make lots of pressies for xmas! (I know eaxtly what you mean, as I'm supposed to be making three things but what I keep making isn't turning out right so I have to keep starting all over again!)

Hi Jennie, Im so sorry to hear about Clover XX
P.S. Love the jelly moulds
Hello you
My mojo is all over the place, my cardmaking muse has arrived, my sewing muse disappeared - ho hum. Sorry to hear about Clover, I was gutted when my guinea pig Queenie died this year, doesn't matter how small your pets are they are still part of the family. That's quite a collection of knitting needles you have there, and fabby jelly moulds.
I've sent you an email to get your mojo back - hope it doesn't take you 3 weeks to download - it's not that big - honest ;)

Love those jelly molds! Wonderful bargains.
So sorry about Clover.
You have some great finds from the sales; love the jelly presses!
I do hope that you get to feeling better soon...
Blessings and hugs,
Pam
Hi, great bargain jelly moulds and I love the little card at the top of your post.

I'm so sorry about Clover!!! Really really sorry. I'm giving you a mental blog hug right now.
Shame about the hamster and hope L is OK. I thought the photograph at the end of your post was of a giant heart cookie but realise it isn't. (I'm dieting. It's understandable).
Hi just found your blog. Love the postcards you use i have been collecting lucie atwell postcards for years and have them framed in my kitchen. I love the jelly moulds and the knitting needles. Great finds x
It's always sad when a pet dies whether it's big or small.
My dd also has an inviatation to go for the jab here in NZ. I just worry that there might be things they will only find out about in later years. Like you I need to read up a bit more.
Love all those needles.
Sorry to hear about Clover. It is such a funny time of year, mixed feelings, new beginnings etc, bittersweet. Hope you have a good weekend

Hi Jennie, hope you've managed to banish those blues, I must admit I find it hard to keep the blogging and crafting motivation going sometimes too. Well done on the awards!

OOPS... NEARLY FORGOT... I LOVE YOUR JELLY GLASS MOLDS!
Fab finds! Sorry to hear your sad news.
Big hugs, Sal ;-)
You deserve the awards Jennie. Sorry to hear about the family pet, you do get very attached to these little creatures. I love boots but have to stay away most of the time, I just have so much stuff and no shelves to display it on! I wasn't sure about Lost in Austen after the first episode but I enjoyed the second one. I hope you get your mojo back very soon! x
OMG GOODNESS Jenny, I LOVE them Jelly molds!!!!!!!!!!! I havent been around much eh? So Glad to see you and your wonderful cheery blog is still here!!!!!!!
