    I've been Money Tipped!
    Hey girls, can you keep your eyes open for long length vests...straps or racer back..whatever not fussy about that. I want them for summer layering with shorter tops over the jeggings, so they need to keep good bum clearance!

    Of Course, of course DB!

    I just ordered this
    SS09205-9800TPS392395.jpgSingle duvet set from Tesco reduced to £1.95 delived to my local store. I'm thinking of using the material to make a maxi, it's quite similar to the second one from yesterday. For that price it's worth a try!

    right, actually at work now rather than on the way, hence the speedy and misspelt post earlier...

    vicki - can't wait to see the playsuit, i really like them in theory, although wish they would make them longer!

    lost - hope you manage more baby chicks as well :)

    daisy - i do know what you mean about the frustration of feeling as though you've been "dropped" by your RL friends..i guess my only advice would be that things like this show you who your really valuable friends are..i think i went through a similar thing last year - i was quite depressed, and things with the ex were not going well, we were going through some traumatic stuff i guess, and it lead to me leaving my "extra" job, where most of my friends of that time were..as soon as i stoppped seeing them at work / going out with them at weekends etc i didn't really hear much from most of them..my "better" friends stuck with me, and we're closer now than we were - reegardless of the fact that most of them don't live anywhere near..

    maybe see what she says if you do see her next week? if she mentions the gift etc, hopefully it's just because she's busy..and lost's right about having more time to dwell on things and how that can make them seem bigger/worse than they are..

    anyway - rant over :-/

    outfit today is a grey cotton hitch-hem skirt i got from primark at the weekend, with meadow type floral print in greens, pinks and blues..
    with a bright pink tee, h&m
    grey tights
    pink mary janes, topshop sale - forgot i had these until last night..
    teal shrug
    chunky pink / oatmeal bead necklace

    Pretty dress DB, they had quite a few like that in New Look yesterday in the sale, I think it was the Mela loves line.

    tyhat's a fab idea, vicki, i love charity shops for cheap and floral duvet sets etc to be made into dresses...i really like that as a duvet set anyway, although i don't need another!

    Ohh that's good to know, hopefully they'll have stuff in still when I go in with birthday money..though not quite sure when that'll be! I'm determined to get some pretty clothes to wear in hospital/grow in to as well as taking jogging bottoms and stuff!

    Right. I am going to be positive for the rest of the day, and if I feel negative I just wont post ;)
    Fingers crossed bloods aren't traumatic, my nurse is away this week so it's a locum doing it apparently which could be fun! So gorgeous out, looking forward to a little wander around the village with Mum,
    think we're going to the factory outlet shop too as they had some really awesome suitcases in, so I can pick one to have for my birthday.
