    evening ladies

    happy birthday Fiasco :bdaycake:

    great news about the job tokkiandoliver :beer:

    some uu's

    clarins multi active day gel - love clarins products, this had a lovely light consistency and did a great job as a moisturiser - wmba if I ever get through the rest of the potions in the stash

    max factor masterpiece mascara - does a good job, wba when I've used up the others in the stash

    olay 3 point serum, I like this, no idea if it actually does anything though! moving on to an elemis one next

    we finally had some sunshine today :j:j

    happy pampering, xo
  • Happy birthday Fiasco, enjoy your birthday meal!

    I don't have any pets at the moment but my fantasy pet would be either a tiger or a giraffe (I did say fantasy!) I'm thinking that with some selective breeding like they have done with miniature horses then a house pet sized giraffe should be possible :rotfl:

    I am also a map turner and whenever I do it I think of Joey in Friends getting into his map as well willowbee :D

    I have some Ins, my first of the month though so I am almost seeing this as a success!

    Avon Superenchant mascara, was only £3 in clearance and I don't have that many mascaras in the stash.

    Avon Glimmerstick eyeliner in Vivid Grey, no excuse for this, I just liked the new colour range!

    Nivea night cream samples x3 came through the post yesterday.

    Good new about your job Tokkiandoliver.

    I have another UU

    Body Shop Sweet Pea Duo 200ml - WNBA only bought this as it was on special offer of £1, when I last did a body shop order, don't really like body butters prefer body lotion. There are no more body butters left in the stash, only lotions now, using the Ren rose Otto one now then onto the Elemis one that my lovely Sunswap buddy sent me. Going to look in the stash for a cheap one DH can use as I'm not letting him use either of these ones.

    I have opened a couple of the little Ren skincare minis I got with my orders and they are lovely products and my skin seems happy with them and it feels nicely soothed. Still loads of other brands I want to try, but so far my skin likes the Ren stuff.

    Do you have any pets and what creature would you like to have if there were no practical limits (and the animal was perfectly well cared for and happy?)

    I don't have any pets. In fantasy land I would have a panda cub. Just watch the pandas in the video below - so cute!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGF6bOi1NfA&feature=plcp

    In the real world, I would really like to have a little dog like a Westie. However, I think it'd be cruel to leave a dog home alone for the day while I was at work, so I'd need to get a dog walker.

    If nothing else I will get a dog when I retire - something that is a loooong way off, especially if I don't get my unnecessary toiletries habit among other frivolities under control!

    No UU so far this week, but on the positive front despite being tempted by a number of special offers I've managed to talk myself out of all of them.

    As to yesterdays question, am usually pretty good with maps and don't tend to turn them upside down. Use sat navs for unfamiliar journeys since I moved to London but tend to learn routes pretty quickly so don't rely on sat nav once I've got a route into my mind.

    Willowbee - glad you got thro yesterday Ok, hope you managed to get some sleep last night.

    Fiasco - Happy Birthday!
    Tokkiandoliver - congratulations!

    - that is one huge list of in's!!!! Bet you had a smile on your face when you saw all that lot!

    Mingle
    - what bread of cat is Sebastian ?? I ask because my parents have a Maine Coon (Sam) and our old neighbour used to call him the local Mountain Lion!!

    I have two cats, both beautiful longhair Persian girls, one cream and one blue colurpoint. Angel and Affie. Both rescued as adults from families who no longer wanted them.

    I will never understand why people get a pet and then decide to throw it away like chip paper when they are board of it. But it was my good luck in the end - both my girls are amazing:D:D:D

    In fantasy land I would love a white tiger. Had the oppertunity to spend lime with some cubs last year, I fell in love...... In 'real' life, eventually I would like a German Shepherd - once I can spend enough time at home to look after it. I also feel a little selfish in saying it, but I would love a Persian kitten. Since I moved into my own home I have addopted all of my animals as adults. They have given me such joy that I would love to watch one grow up in front of my eyes. Maybe one day....

    No Buying Toiletries in 2013

  • PETS: In my fantasy world, I would like to have some foxes, wolves, tigers, lions, bears oh my LOL
    I am a HUGE animal lover and animal rights activist.

    In reality, I have a precious pomeranian/american eskimo mix named Oscar. He is my baby boy. He is very anti-social as he was rescued from a puppy mill, but he is so sensitive and the sweetest creature walking this earth (lol at least to me). He is very fluffy, and I just changed my avatar to him, so you guys can all see his beautiful face :)

    ITZY - wow, what a bargain on that huge haul. Last month, I sold roughly 40 items off of facebook too. I prefer to sell in lots myself. Good luck using all that fabulous stuff up!

    I forgot to report some IN's in the beginning of the week - yikes!
    Bad me!
    Guerlain aqua allegoria perfume in grapefruit and Guerlain blush duo in chic pink. I did end up getting them for roughly 50-60% off, but of course I need to be more mindful of my money at this time due to the upcoming holiday.

    I'm off of work today, and I'm worried as I already have had 2 NPI!
