    I just found a pure white eyebrow hair.

    This is not good.

    Is this what happens at 36?!?! :eek:

    Stressful morning at work... lots of disagreements and a few 'debates' (arguments) between management and staff, so a sombre atmosphere this afternoon.

    I had to get out at lunchtime, so popped to the nearby shops. I spent a couple of vouchers I had for my birthday :D Bought some kitchen knives as I had to throw all of mine as they went rusty. Also picked up some more 'big boy' cutlery for O, some mugs (as I had given the ex most of mine it seems - I am very mug-fussy - has to be a nice shape and design of mug or the tea doesn't taste nice :rotfl:). Just need to get a cheap set of dinner plates/bowls and my kitchen should be fully stocked again. ;)

    Also picked up half a leg of lamb which was better than half price and a few other bits. All of the above cost me under a fiver in cold hard cash, and that was taken from £30 I made last night in selling my old chairs. :D

    Someone is coming to look at a table tonight, so hopefully that'll go for another £30.

    The shopping sounds like a roaring success. All that for only £5 of your 'own money' - :j Hope the table has gone by now as well :D

    OMG re: white eyebrow.. if it helps I had my own pretty horrific 'age' moment today.. someone at work took it upon themselves to guess my age, and lets just say, their conclusion was about 10 year out and put me not far off 40!:eek:
    I felt horrified. I'm not even 30. I know it's been a rough few months but if they have aged me that much I better get myself checked straight in for some emergency botox :(
    Have a great weekend x

    I got ID'd for alcohol a couple of weeks ago. they refused to serve me because I only took my bank and nectar card. I plumped for chocolate instead. #30nextyear :rotfl:

    Am loving the furniture moving. Not so much the white eyebrow hair. let me assure you mine have been cropping up in far more alarming places for years. :rotfl: Just think.. at least it wasn't a steely grey colour. I'd like to think when I am an old lady my hair would be all pure white. :D so.. next year then.

    I'll show myself out... and take Knit Witch with me.... ;)
