Right I'm going to pack my lunch for tomorrow and sort myself out for bed. had a lovley soak in the bath tonight and it's didn't feel wrong because the weather is cooler *YAY* I'm desperate to finish the book I'm reading because it's crap and I've got a pile of others I want to read, but once i start reading I have to finish it, even if I'm not overly enjoying it.
Am hoping to get to the gym before work and then go into the charity shop after work, so a busy day ahead. I poped in to say hello to everyone and realised how much I miss being there every day
Outfit for tomorrow: Black trousers hareem style (fitted at the ankle and wide round the hips IYKWIM) £1.50 brand new from carboot few weeks ago, think they are by florence and fred at tesco, then either a plain white t-shirt £1.20 charity shop or oasis black fitted t-shirt with silver sequins on shoulders £2.99 charity shop, with black waistcoat 50p carboot and black brogues with chunky heel £3.99 charity shop, couple of strings of pearls and big chunky silver bangle - prob throw on a jacket/coat but don't know which yet.

Night Queenie

Mia, I wouldn't rely on anything still being in stock at Primark as things vary so much from store to store and from week to week. IMO, the other one is a very decent price and is prob a lot better quality.0 -
Am feeling too tired (and far too lazy to go to the gym), although I'm starting to think it's pointless paying for something I'm currently not using!*wonders when they will make dressing gowns acceptable day wear?*No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!NSD Jan 2/150

I'm having that debate. Constantly exhausted and yet really hating myself at the moment lookswise. I have weight to lose. I just need to do something about it!

Morning, Its thoroughly miserable here
. I was going to walk into town and have a nosey round some charity shops but now I just want to curl up under my duvet and hiberate.
Totally dressed for warmth today (as I am far too stingy to put the heating on after my last power bill :eek:) in baggy jeans, slipper socks, old t-shirt and a hoody (totally inspiring :rotfl:)
I think I might do a bit of listing on eBay, need to get rid of some old clothes.
Hope everyones having a good day so far
Make £10 a day challenge (August) - £175/£3100 -
Morning,
You wouldn't believe the torrential rain here this morning, so autumnal in Glasgow (good excuse to buy some new season clothes!).
Won a coat on someone's blog and it's lovely. Wore it to work this morning - really chuffed with it. Will get some pics taken at some point.
Have a good day all.

Morning, all
Managed a very quiet car boot before the rain started. Rubbish really, all market traders and counterfeit DVDs but I did snaffle a 1956 Pin-up magazine called "Blighty" and some vintage seamed stockings.
Off to do some eBaying, have a nice day!0 -
Hey girls.
Insomnia hit last night and I didn't get to sleep till 5.30am, therefore I'm working from home today and probably won't bother getting dressed. Think I would probably crash the car if I attempted driving it.0 -
Aw alex, i hate not being able to sleep :S
Decent that you're able to work from home though..I never get enough done when I try that!
Was up sewing til the wee hours myself..but managed a few hours which is good for me..
today's outfit:
white dress with blue/ green floral print, tk maxx i think...
long bottle green bf cardi, new look
green / white snowflake knitted irregular choice "apres ski" heels..
various pearl bracelets, giant teal heart ring and a green elastic headband with a bow as my hair is a mess and better off up!
also a gold chain necklace with a tiny sewing machine charm on, and a flower charm, bought from my friend's shop recently with mad discount..0
