    So, I have had work all of this week! Which is exciting :) it's been hard work but worth it and it was made me feel a lot better, being back doing what I love to do :)

    Nothing much else to report. It's my hen do on Saturday and I have NO idea what I'll be doing...!

    So, it was my hen do yesterday! I didn't know what we were doing at all, so it was a lovely surprise and a good day was had by all I think :) I was not allowed to spend a single thing all day, and was treated to both lunch and tea as well!

    Today has been a quiet day, and another NSD for me :) Tomorrow won't be as I'm having my wedding hair trial! It's only 48 days to go....!

    The hair trial was disappointing - I'm going to have to re-think things a little!

    We moved house today - it's been a long day and we still have lots of sorting out to do, so tomorrow will mainly be spent sorting through all of our stuff. The new house is lovely, much bigger than the old one and much warmer too :D

    NSD 6 for us too :)

    So, yesterday was spent unpacking and sorting - nothing exciting and we are both shattered. However, the house is lovely :D got more stuff to do, but it's slowly taking shape!

    I remember my sister's wedding day almost 17 years ago. She had opted to have small fresh rose buds in her hair but before she got to the reception they were out in full bloom. :eek: :rotfl:

    At least you have a few weeks left to get your hair sorted. Great news on your new place being bigger, warmer and costing less, very :money:!
