    Wow fab haul Tsabo!

    I'm going to get on ebay later and look for a playsuit, cant afford it but my lust is driving me mad :o

    Managed to get out with best friend :D
    had to take it verrrrrrrrry slow to be allowed to go, but that was good as benefitted from more fresh air that way!
    We had iced coffee in the park, yum, and managed a mooch around Tesco which was busy but refreshingly cool. How exciting is my life eh?

    Now flitting between online, garden and sleeping.

    Um, I appear to have bought a sewing machine...

    Outfit for today has been:

    Blue stripy & floral dress - Primark
    Black leggings & short sleeved cardi - ditto
    Tan glads - Tesco
    Brown bag - Kookai

    I ditched everything when I got home and am in the garden in just the dress now. Still don't like going out in bare legs and I can't show my arms off, so I sense it will be a summer of cardis and leggings with my dresses :(

    Today's outfit is:
    !!!!!cat tunic - New Look, but half price
    Grey shorts from Primark
    Whatever shoes I put on - either pumps from George or last year's Quiksilver flipflops

    I have a playsuit in a 14 from New Look's summer collection last year if anyone wants it....I can't wear it as it looks funny on me....I'm not made for them! I'm trying to find a picture but it's navy and has different colour hearts on it....like this one.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BNWT-Cute-New-Look-heart-playsuit-size-12-/160434766760?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Women_s_Clothing&hash=item255aa843a8
    ** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **
    ** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
    **SPC 2012 #1498 -£152 and 1499 ***
    I do it all because I'm scared.

    Alex - glad you bought a sewing machine, looking forward to seeing what you do with it :)
    It's just too hot for me I have had a range of outfits on today cool cotton summer dress at home, but had to go to supermarket and changed into skinny jeans and vest with cardie (to hide arms) - in this heat; people were looking at me like I must be nuts! Going to visit mum tonight and she is always quite critical so will have to find something else to put on tonight! Arghhhh...

    Ugh it's too hot for worrying about what ppl think kandi! I'm in a rather short sundress, hoping for a little colour at least! Just finished my book so think I'll pop back in to have some food and then get a new book and come back out..

    I know you are right - I was looking around and there were alot of people letting it all hang out today - perhaps if I show more cleavage they wont look at my wobbly arms :o

    Hello lovelies!

    Just wanted to say thank you so much for your kind comments and support this week. What lovely people you are. I know it's hard to find the right words but you've all expressed yourselves beautifully and it means everything to me.

    It's a gorgeous day. Didn't bother car-booting as I did rather well yesterday (and I'd received a fab parcel from NZ) so opted for the pub lunch option instead then a long sleep in the garden.

    I'm wearing a rose print maxi I bought about three years ago (which is on the blog) with my latest car boot clogs and a straw hat..

    Enough about worrying about that you look like in summer gear, please. A brightly printed frock or trapeze top draw any attention from dodgy bits, honestly!
    I've seen loads of girlies out today in cardis and tights and it just looks far too hot and bothersome.

    Well said goan :)
    I've been inside for a book swap and changed my dress to a strapless one as the other was just backless and i now have red patch in the middle of my bCk. Can't believe I'm the only person making the most of the sun in our garden!!
    Guna be red tomorro :-/ oh well..it won't last long!

    Wise words Goan :)

    I'm drained now, downside to this heat. And I'm still weeing allll the time and cant keep up with my fluid intake.
    Fingers crossed nurse is ringing tomorrow with my bloods results (she didnt in the end Friday) so will have a word with her, for some advice.

    Think it might be time to chuck on PJs and sit browsing ebay.
