  • LadyM - it's really interesting looking at your make-up collection so please don't delete any photos. Lots of lovely things there! :D It doesn't look like too much to me but that is because I like to have lots of colour choice too & I have even more make up than you :embarasse (That smiley looks too sad. I was aiming for embarrassed but not sad!)

    I'm so glad that your meeting with the OT went well. It sounds like there are lots of small adjustments that might make things a little easier/better for you. When you're so run down even small improvements can seem like a miracle :) I wouldn't have thought of raising a sofa either - what a great idea :T

    Hugs to you. Well done for winning your case. I'm not surprised that you feel exhausted by it - it must have been incredibly stressful and I think it's a brave thing that you did. You have probably saved other people from being bullied by your boss. I hope that you wake up feeling much lighter tomorrow :)
  • Lots of interesting reviews popping up today :T

    Itzybitzy - I almost ordered a set of Abhana goodies from Latest In Beauty (I don't think they have them any more) but I have enough body lotion to last a lifetime. I do love my Neom body lotion sample though so was interesting to hear it's similar.

    its nowhere near as bad as mine! :eek: I'm moving in a month or so, so i'll have an opportunity to get it all out. i think photographic evidence of it will stop me buying more, when its in boxes stacked in a drawer its easy to forget exactly what you have.

    That's why I'm concentrating on toiletries first. I think I'd have a meltdown if I tried to tackle my make-up 'collection' at the same time! :rotfl:

    Phew! It's not just me (I saw your post after I posted mine, EvilSquid). I'm sure that I will get round to listing everything or maybe photographing it eventually...

    Been offline for a few days as the houseguest hogged my computer quite a bit, so i ended up mostly on my phone... but hes gone now (yay!) started his new job yesterday, so i took him to Watford on Wednesday evening after work. All would be good youd think - except in the two days after, weve noticed that we are missing about £25 in cash, an ashtray and the radio that mum put in the spare room for him to use.... now I REALLY hope Karma exists.... :(


    UU - the hand soap that I bought in tescos - cant remember the make (thoguh it sounds like it should be posh?) bit of a LHJ,cos i bought 3 reduced to £1 each cos there was no proper lid on them. WIBA? no, probbaly not - it didnt smell remotely like grapefruit and whatever else it was meant to - and ive already bought two palmolive hand soaps that are currently half price.
    dont think ive got any other UUs or Ins for the moment - unless i havent said about the bath bomettes that my friend got me for my birthday last week? there are 6 of them - hopefully they will be nice !!

    Huge hugs for everyone who needs them - hope you are all ok xx
    Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup

    ladymorticia care to share any quick reviews on your mascara collection? i love mascara reviews, there are so many rubbish ones out there :P

    i've put a few more sealed items on ebay and i feel like i've made so much progress and shifted half my stash but it's more like 1%

    I think photographing it has definitely helped me realise how much I actually have! I never realised I actually have so many coloured eyeliners.:o I just like to be a bit different with my eyes sometimes.:o

    Oh no, Trudi. :( That is so horrible. How could someone do that when you gave them a roof over their head when they had nowhere to go? :( That's just disrespectful and abusing your trust. :(
