July 2015

...Awesome. So get out there and Make shit happen!!
You see what happens when you don't?? Yeah no calendar for June *sad face*. Well I did eventually get it sorted but so much of the month had gone that it didn't seem worth posting about it...
Anyway so here is the July 2015 Desktop Calendar. I think this is going to be my new daily mantra and combine it with a Power Pose (and YES those things really DO work!!).

As usual this has been exported as a .png and will fill a 1920 x 1080 screen. Just click on the image, or the link in the text, to open the image. Right-click your mouse and choose to 'save as' to save the image on your computer. Then all you need to do is find the image in your 'Downloads' folder and again right-click over the image and just select 'set as Desktop background'.

Right well I'm off to do a quick two minute power pose and be all productive :D xxx

So even though the weather has actually been quite lovely recently (some days a little blowy and dull) I always think of rain for April... yeah you know it has to be because of Disney's Bambi!! Anyway here it is with lovely colourful raindrops - the April 2015 Desktop Calendar.

Better Late Than Never... Again!!

FINALLY!! it's here... at long last the March 2015 Desktop Calendar!!
The last 5 - 6 weeks have been quite difficult for me to use a computer too much, I've been having problems with my hands and joints being incredibly stiff and painful (I ended up having to have several blood tests and x-rays and am currently taking very strong anti-inflammatories whilst waiting to see a rheumatologist).

Anyway today being St Patrick's Day, obviously I've gone with a little bit of a Celtic theme - greens, a simple Celtic knot pattern for the border, a Celtic-style font and I've also added an ancient motif of three hares surrounded by oak leaves.

As usual this has been exported as a .png and will fill a 1920 x 1080 screen. Just click on the image, or the link in the text, to open the image. Right-click your mouse and choose to 'save as' to save the image on your computer. Then all you need to do is find the image in your 'Downloads' folder and again right-click over the image and just select 'set as Desktop background'.

Anyway, whether you're celebrating St Patrick's Day or not (possibly wearing green to avoid being pinched) or even having a liquid lunch of the black stuff. Have a great day!! ...and I'll be keeping my knobbly fingers crossed that my hands will soon be back on form :D xxx

January, February....

Well we've FINALLY got the first proper snow of this winter!! So as it's my day off I've been making an early start on the free downloadable desktop calendar for February 2015. As usual this has been exported as a .png and will fill a 1920 x 1080 screen.

Just click on the image, or the link in the text, to open the image. Right-click your mouse and choose to 'save as' to save the image on your computer. Then all you need to do is find the image in your 'Downloads' folder and again right-click over the image and just select 'set as Desktop background'.

Anyway, while I was working on it I had the lovely Barbara Dickson singing in my head. My mum was a bit of a Barbara fan when I was growing up so of course I had to have a quick search on on YouTube... honestly, isn't she just FABULOUS!!! And yes I did have to have a bit of a sing-a-long (so I've included the lyrics below)... Enjoy!!

Oh yeah one last thing... is it wrong of me that the colour opacity of the small hearts is 69% on purpose?... what can I say? feel the love people :D xxx

February 2015

JANUARY, FEBRUARY...

You just say the things you want to hear
And like a fool I believed everything was clear
But now I feel so distant
I don't know what to say
The things I thought important are just another day
And you and I are miles and miles apart
You got me on the road
To one more broken heart

[Chorus]
January February
I don't understand
Why it is you say you're leaving
Then you turn around
You won't settle down
You've got both feet off the ground
January February
Don't you come around

Wake up I tell myself but I don't even hear
One more night, another day, another year
It doesn't seem to matter
'Cos you don't seem to care
If only there were some way out
A way to anywhere
'Cos you and I are miles and miles apart
You got me on the road
To one more broken heart

[Chorus]

It doesn't seem to matter
'Cos you don't seem to care
If only there were some way out
A way to anywhere
'Cos you and I are miles and miles apart
You got me on the road
To one more broken heart

[Chorus]

January February
Don't you come around (repeat)

I'm planning a new project for 2015... a free downloadable calendar for each month. So as a trial I've updated my own desktop for December 2014.
