    Morning ladies- hope everyone is okay today.

    Lovely sunny day and i have no plans so i may go for a really long "thinking" walk down by the Loch.

    Soon be time for wine drinking evenings on the loch shores soon :) Roll on summer.

    My daughter and her friends are counting down the days till they can go down after school to swim at the loch or midnight swims in the reservoir. Slightly jealous I'm too old to do that now really.. it would shock some people if i did ha!!!

    Better think about getting dressed then.

    I'm feeling quite down and out this morning. Been awake too long I reckon.
    Will feel better once I get myself dressed and find something to do with the day
    gorgeous weather so will drag my lazy bum in to the village to do some errands later I think, the fresh air should help.
  • Meds where in Scotland are you?
    Walk round the loch sounds good. Always better to think in tranquil surroundings.

    Wearing today: All Saints tshirt dress in beige with peacock feathers, rams skull and other patterns. It sounds awful but I really like it! I may do another photo today. Was wearing it with leggings, leather jacket and military style boots when I was out.

    Doctors went well in the fact I have a diagnosis (post viral fatigue [though online it says this is the same as ME..which wasn't mentiioned to me] ) but not so well in the way that modern medicine can't help.
    Not sure how I feel about it all really, the doctor wasn't too helpful and I might see about contacting someone else.

    Ok, enough about me! I'm meeting my boyfriend later to buy fake tan (for me, not him!). I hope he treats me. ;)

    Hope everyone else is having a good morning. I'm back in bed with an apple turnover. mmm.

    There is a lot you can do for post viral fatigue, but its hard work...and totally dependent on self, which is damningly hard when self is fatigued!
  • Morning Peeps..

    Tsabo I suppose its good they have given a diagnosis where are you going from here with it? ((hugs)) hun.

    I have taken outfit shots for the blog then the camera died so cant upload them til the battery charges...grrr

    Im wearing:

    rose print skirt with gold waistband bought the other day from Primark
    green tights- primark
    black v neck short sleeve- primark
    Pink round neck short sleeve cardigan- Peacocks ages ago.
    black ruffle front pumps- Tescos
    pearl necklace with big gold bow- Asda (I think)
    long pearl earrings (same)

    Yes Im wearing black...I couldnt wait any longer to wear my new skirt and at least Ive teamed it with coloured tights! I feel a bit indecent in this skirt as it a tad see through (well in my mind it is) and the sun is so bright I feel everyone can see my pant's...luckily my v neck is a longer style so I can pull that down- oops. Got a few look's going into nursery this morning but dont know if thats becasue of the green tights...felt quite good though haha

    right, another day that style forgot here: I'm having really trouble with this hand, and being me,if I can't makeup properly I wonder what the point is.

    sam white cropped trousers....have struggled for nude knickers to day though...

    leopard print and pink vest from M&S and a pink ruched sleeved jumper. Will wear what ever shoes are by the door and are easy.

    Hair in a messy pony tail, the best I can do!

    Take the looks as a compliment!! There are two styles of mums at my nursery - the ones that only ever wear skinny jeans/leggings and black tops and the ones that don't really try. I stand out like a sore thumb being a working mum!!

    Pf - a good chat always helps! Both me and my sister turn to our Dad in times of trouble.

    Daisy - hope the sunshine and exercise perks you up.

    Lost - I agree with the stockings on podgy legs :(.

    Tsabo - if I were you I'd be looking at alternative therapies. Where are you based? I practise Reiki and would be happy to help if you're close by.

    I'm a bit down in the dumps today too. I'm trying to lose weight and despite eating well and doing lots of exercise the weight isn't shifting. I know I'm shaping up, and starting to lose inches, but I'm fixated on the flipping scales. Why did I ever buy them??!

    Todays outfit:

    grey high waisted fitted skirt (fab as it gives you instant shape!)
    black long sleeved top tucked into skirt
    black opaques
    electric blue boyfriend cardie
    high heeled court shoes in grey/white/silver tarten with a bow over the toe - I love these shoes :D

    Claire- if you are exercising and losing inches then chances are you are toning and building muscle which means you'll be looking smaller and fitter but the weight will be slower coming off. Scales are the devil.

    I'm dressed.

    White long sleeve tee with fancy buttons down front: river island
    Black sheerish polka dot bat wing top: new look
    Vintage blue/green/pink/white floral skirt: yellow shop in bath
    Raspberry tights: either new look or primark
    Cut out detail zip front shoes: matalan
