    Whoops - no chores or exercise done :o

    Enjoyed my shopping though :) Got a lovely black, fur coat as my Christmas pressie from my lovely Mum :A Been looking for ages and managed to get just what I wanted

    Didn't get a shrug but am embarrased to say I think I have one somewhere :o - need to delve into the back of my wardrobe!

    Treated myself to some MAC make up too - a lip glos and a face primer which people keep recommending to me :)

    Just waiting for pizza to cook then I might paint my toenails whilst I watch X Factor - and then bed with my book :)

    Well we could have chat amongst ourselves if I didn't keep posting then running lol I've been playing the Family Fortunes board game. I won the first round but became too competitive :o so decided to become the quiz master instead.

    Your idea for christmas sounds like a good one, you'll be amazed how much you save I bet. I have just starting saving my £2 coins in a terramundi and not planning on opening that until its full and I'm going to spend it all on ME ME ME!!! :D

    I'm thinking I might buy a right furry piece with my styling money!

    I love fur :j but took me a while to find what I was looking for (far too many made me look like a giant teddy bear :o) Have gone for classic black, 3/4 length, slightly waisted - so think I will get a few years wear out of it (thanks Mum :A)

    I now want a hat - am loving trilbys! Woolly ones do nothing for me, my face is too round :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hey girls,

    Bowski - spending the £2 on me was my original plan, but as I've not yet stopped treating 'me' then I think it should really go towards christmas .

    Once I'm debt free all £2 coins will be mine :D

    Souk - glad your weekend was a success; you'll be very proud of me, I've been clearing out my wardrobe again.

    Shoesy - Great news on the fur coat; I would love a leopard one but have already had 3 new coats/jacket this year so being good.

    H&M also have some trilby / fedora style hats.

    No exercise here either :whistle: but plenty of goddessing; hair treatment & all nails done :D

    Hope everyone's monday is fine
    xx
