No buying unecessray toiletries in July

sunshineyday

evening ladies,

uu S&G the righteous butter, this is a really good moisturiser, I have another one in the stash but think I will choose something else to use next as I do get a little bored with S&G even though it is very good and long lasting.

uu Balance me facial wash - a mag freebie, love love love this! my skin is definitely responding well to this cleanser and doesn't seem to get oily as quickly, have two more in the stash.

happy pampering, xo

read in the boots mag that the average woman spends £2000 a year on toiletries.......OMG what do we spend then???:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
looking forward to trying the Ren goodies,have awful weeping sores round my nose at the mo like you get after a cold:(:(:(so having to be a bit careful.
was in Marks trying to decide where the money goes in the new self service tills and had to get the SA to show me:eek: when I made a comment about modern technology she said it makes things quicker(not always true...think when you call a firm and gets so many options you forget why you called in the first place!)anyway I said "us oldies don't agree":eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:first time I classed myself as old:rotfl:....was asked if i had grandchildren this week,then the girl apologised as she saw my shocked face:rotfl:not as bad as when a woman at work asked if I started work there when I retired:eek:

No more INs so that is good, went into Boots yesterday to buy my lunch and didn't deviate from the fridge units :j
This evening I have my swedish massage that my BF booked for me. Kind of looking forward to it.
The rain has stopped today, so that is good. :T

Had to smile at this:D, it comes round to bite us on the bum! when I was in my teens and twenties I thought anyone older than my Mum and Dad (who were young parents) was incredibly ancient, then as I gained a decade my definition of old got pushed back by the equivalent amount, now I am 63 and know lots of very energetic and fit 80+ year old it doesn't seem so bad a prospect. Anyway OLD is mostly in peoples heads, (my nail varnish colours vouch for that:p), keep going, keep smiling and stay interested in what is going on around you I say. My late FIL was always living in the past and that is really ageing imho.

DAY 19, no more purchases, BUT I think I shall FAIL right at end of month, I have a £10 voucher code fromQ** and I want to try the Alph-H Liquid Gold that is Beauty Product of the month, double size, £10 off and free postage means I can try it on 30 day MBG and it will only cost me the return postage if it does not suit me. (Wearing :money:hat).

just popped out to the PO van for 10 mins and of course DHL came with my Clarins:mad:wish they would leave stuff with neighbours,now have to stay in tomorrow till they decide to come:(

Rosemary understand your frustration re the DHL delivery, My REN delivery came only a couple of minutes after DH left the house to walk the dogs, worst timing now have to wait until Monday for a redelivery. Worst thing is next door was in, so don't know if they didn't knock there (or they didn't answer the door, they don't always).I have more UU to declare later, when I get home from work. Work is very frustrating today, as office is quiet and a lot of people gossiping instead of working, making it hard to concentrate.

It's frustrating her for me too. My computer appears to be the only one that still has internet and network access. Everyone else's has gone down. So I have to continue doing work while they all sit around doing nothing!

Re DHL and the like I think they work on a 'when you're done you're done basis' and they don't like knocking at neighbours as it delays them. When they knock at mine I think they allow 4 seconds for you to answer before they go back to the van. Heaven help you if you are not able bodied.

No ins, no outs no uu, very boring:(
