Now that makes me feel old, I left school in 1981. Still haven't finished the tapestry clutch bag I started in the first year in 1976.

Well done on all the decluttering! You're doing a fab job!
You can go off people you know! Mmmm I might find that clutch bag whilst i am declutteringSome days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow -- Mary Anne Radmacher0 -

Amazon parcel despatched at lunchtime - after postage should give me a profit of £7 for something that was in Dad's pile of books, so am happy with that.

Only been away for the weekend, and it took a lot of catching up on your thread Hypno, there were so many posts
Didn't manage any Shred, I thought the hotel guests in the room below would wonder what was happeningBut tons of walking/shopping.
Capsule wardrobe update - well I'd a big gap in the knitwear department, well I'd thrown most of it out as long over due throwing/worn out, fortunately TKMaxx had just started their knitwear session, and got some classic sweaters and cardies. Also bought a couple of full price items, I'd been searching for months for them, a Chanel look breton style striped T-Shirt from Whistles, and a similar style cream and navy sweater from American Apparel - at least I used a cash back credit card. So only a couple of things on the list now.
New me update - Well after a nice Sunday lunch with wine with eldest DS, decided to walk off the lunch/wine around town with OH. Body shop was open and empty except for lots of staff with nothing to do and a big advert saying to ask about makeovers, so got up the courage (the wine helped), and went in and had one
It was really good, I've now got some updated products and techniques to bring me upto date, currently got them laid out on the dressing table in the right order to practisePlanning to practise for a while, work out what works and doesn't and then maybe try another makeover somewhere else to try to improve on products/techniques a bit more. It was handy having OH there, as it gave an opinion other than the shop assistant, so I'd recommend taking a friend.
Just got to get back on the diet and exercise straight and narrow.
Pleased to hear that your 'new me' is going so well Hypno and all the others joining in here are enjoying having a go too :T:T:T.0 -
I did a similar thing with Bare Minerals earlier in the year, Se, and it did wonders for my confidence, so good for you!
I am off to the theatre this evening, having been invited by MiL. I can't remember what it is that I am going to see, but the cast is quite famous so hopefully should be reasonably good......so a quick turnaround this evening - gourmet meal of crumpets with butter for dinner, and a quick freshen up, then away I go again.....
Hope you are all ok, and that you have a good evening xSuccessful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -
