  • completely fed up today - was up til about 3am, unable to sleep and trying to get everything i need to send out wrapped up and sorted, and i still have loads to do - don't seem to be able to concentrate long enough on anything to be able to get it totally done :( lack of concentration is resulting from the medication i'm on at the moment, i think, so hopefully shouldn't be lasting too long, but i feel like i'm losing my mind sometimes, forgettign what i was supposed to be gettign from the supermarket etc etc :(

    anyway, sorry for the rant, outfit:
    white tulip skirt with black polka dots, new look
    green tee, new look
    black tights
    black satin cropped blazer
    irregular choice green knit alpine heels.

    If it's any help, I'm exactly the same, only without the excuse of the medication!! I've got 10 of the 12 giveaway prizes wrapped but none of the actual presents that need to be posted to people. Argh!

    was hoping to get some of my writing and wrapping done at lunch, but one meeting ran over, and then i had to pop to the supermarkt, and it was ridiculously busy with xmas panic-shoppers. ugh!
  • Oh I hate the last week of term :(
    Am listening to a christmas album I band I really like recently put out though and it's cheering me up.

    Not looking forward to xmas shopping next week. No idea what to get OH's family. I did a basket of little things & some bicuits I made one year but I can't do anything like that this time because I need to take it on train journeys. Hmm...

    Wearing the slightly dubious pairing of skirt and hoody today. The colours don't match either :o

    Order from Dorothy P's came today. Will get some pics up for opinions soon so you guys can help me decide what to keep if you're willing to :)

    morning all :)
    Sorry I wasn't about yesterday, tbh my outfit just felt too bleurgh to even mention really. I've decided as well I need another pair of jeans since I have 2 pair, one of which I hardly wear cos I think they make me look fat, so I'll see if I get any vouchers or money for my birthday this week or Xmas before buying.

    Anyway, outfit today is for the cold:
    slouchy jeans
    purple vest
    grey v neck hoody jumper type thing
    rainbow converse

  • Oooh.... rainbow! I like!
    My converse are being a bit neglected atm because of the wet. It doesn't seem to rain much but everything is somehow still always soggy... ugh...

    I'm still in my Pjs. I meant to get dressed by now... oops!

    Here's a couple of pics of the dresses I said I was trying to choose between. I've blogged more pics (and words :p) but I thought i'd stick some here incase anyone wants to see & can't be arsed to leave MSE ;)

    red cardigan, new look
    red corsage mary jane heels, irregular choice
    brown fur coat, vintage store

    fairly unexciting, but having had an impromptu works do last night and then a breakfast meeting at 7,30am, i wasn't feeling v inspired..
