  • Welcome DB

    You know I had some awesome deeleys back when I was a kid-red head band and glittery stars. I used to wear them everywhere.

    So life lesson number 1 million and one learned. Make sure you never put leather shoes away when they are wet. I now suspect that it was mould that killed my skirt, as I was clearing out some things and spotted one of my shoe dustbags with white furry stuff on. Uh oh I thought Baby moths in the making, I'll throw away the dustbag. That's when I discovered my fabulous sparkly Stuart Weitzman shoes with blue green mould on them, on the sole, and all over the fabric. I had to throw them away. Truly heartbreaking. So lesson learned, 1. Wear these things more, 2. Have less stuff so you can store it away properly. 3. Have a bigger house with a walk in wardrobe.

    Oh well, have to move on I guess. Leaving everything out of that set of drawers until I have bleached them. That does leave me with slightly less storage space than I had before. Oh well.

    I have a walk in wardrobe :) admitedly I can't walk into it because theres so much stuff dumped on the floor but it is truly ace. Right down to having its own little radiator to keep my clothes dry after we discovered that shutting the door without one resulted in mouldy walls and mouldy clothes.

  • Moo, I now have wardrobe envy. I fully intend when we buy our house to have one just like it, and all my fabby shoes will have shoe trees. xx

    Tomorrow I get started on tackling the fear of heights. Lunchtime to be spent going up and down in the clear glass lift I hate in our local shopping centre.

  • So I tackled the lift yesterday. Felt a bit daft when some people got in and wondered why the lift had stopped at the top floor and no-one got on or off.

    Todays task is to stop a cheque. I can only assume it got lost in the post. Hoping it hasn't fallen into the wrong hands though as It was to Equifax to request a copy of my credit report, so it contains my addresses for the last 6 years. :(
