Hello, hello

I'm alive! And rather slack at updating, sorry about that! So I finally have some pictures of my new room, all decorated now. The pictures might be a bit all over the place, but my mother's camera skills are… erm… well useless lol


So we start our tour at the view form my bed. The pooh bear is called Dusty, a lovely man in the respite gave him to me when he won it at the fair. That guy was one of the only nice points of being over there, my mother's been back to see him since as well.
I'm sure i have a better picture of the run (as in one where you can actually see it) but i can't find it anywhere. that'll have to come in a later update



Moving into the corner is my Shelf of Geek! The whole bookshelf is Doctor Who and Torchwood books, DVDs and videos. I didn't have a clue how much i had until i got it all in one place, I've been collecting hard!




This is the wall to the side ( it is only part of the length of the other because the en-suite bathroom stick in a bit). I love that tiger, it's enormous, very very pretty if a little too realistic in half-light!
Notice the two pigs, I keep dropping rather persistent hints about a micro pig or aa pigmy hedgehog, and i got them instead *rolls eyes*. I don't see what's wrong with them as pets, they're small, sweet, and they don't try and eat you like a snake which is my other desired pet!



This is a cross stitch picture on the short jutting in bathroom wall (only thing worth showing on it!). This was one we actually bought, rather than stiched, but all the others in the room either my mother or I did.



I'm missing a picture of the area with the chair, bathroom door and outside door, but that's not very interesting (and the chair looks like a bomb's hit it with all the stuff piled up, so we move on to...

The wall behind my bed. Dusty, the man in the care home, also painted me three of the pictures above the bed. One of his friends took the elephant picture home he did, but he's planning to doa  fourth one to make a matching set.




This picture went horribly light and my picture skill end up cropping and resizing so it had to stay that way! My bed (without me for a change) and the wall running down the side. And my bed with a mountain of support pillows, but no me (I'm sat in thewheelchair down the end somewhere, you don't need to see my ugly mug lol)



We now take a quick detour to the item at the top of that image. No, it's not a pretty Toclofane, it's my ceiling lamp. I can't actually have ceiling lights on at present, but it's so pretty it has to stay up there, and get shown off on here!



Right, back on tour, the three pictures on the side wall are all cross stitched, i think two by my mother and one by me (but it's not unusual for them to become joint projects)



And the end of the 360 tour with the multimedia corner. my TV, dvd, Wii etc. to use any of them though they have to be moved right to the end of the bed because of my eyesight.


Wait though, Don't go running off, I have a couple of pics of odds and ends that didn't get in the pictures but live in the room. This is a greatly tidied version of my room, for each picture all the junk was moved to a different area so some stuff got left out.

Firstly, my snake pot. As i mentioned before i wat a snake, but for now this seems as good as I'm going to get. I want to try and get the head to stay us using fishing line or something at some point so it shows up better:
 


And finally my monkeys. I seem to have gotten a little collection without noticing (There's at least two more since this image). I want to get one of those lemurs withthe magnetic/velcro paws so i can hang it from my monkey pole (the thing that was hanging over my bed to help me ove). Seems like it would be very fitting and cute!


So thank you for having a look around my new pad, i hope you enjoyed it. I'll do one of the bathroom at some point, as well as put up pictures of the african cross stitch kits i have in my to do pile for the interested sewing peeps. I't good to have my own space here, much nicer than a converted living room.
