Champagne Lifestyle on a Lemonade Budget.

Wednesday2000

I got a new purse and a new necklace. The necklace was 5% off.

I also bought a tray to organise my jewellery in my chest of drawers. It all looks neat and tidy now. I keep going back to the drawer to look in and admire it.:rotfl:

Thanks CG,
Champagne moments today were pottering outdoors in the garden then having a smile looking through a box of old photos. My I had "big" hair in the '80s:rotfl::rotfl:

I think we all had big hair back in the 80s. Mine is big now unless brought under control with straighteners. Well I guess the upside is I won't go bald.


Joining those of you on the losing weight kick - it is just creeping up and up and that needs to stop.


Went to the cinema last night to see Pet Semetary - remember reading the book as a teenager. Not a good choice for me - I jump through horror films and found it quite disturbring. The next ones on my to see list are Wild Rose, The Keeper and Red Joan.


Have a good day all with lots of champagne moments.

Champagne moment.

Just pulled out a bag of summer clothes I have not been able to wear for the last couple,e of years. I will be in them soon.:D.

A whole new wardrobe awaits. :rotfl:

Bitterly cold wind here, so having a declutter and a cooking day. Then later a bit of a mini spa session.

Went for my massage yesterday, feel a lot "looser" so going to do some Pilates in a bit.

Some good films there, Shirley.

Big 80s hair......lol, shoulder pads and perms. Ha ha.

Good evening everyone,

Good to see I'm not the only one that suffered from "big hair ", though quite why I thought my naturally curly hair needed perming:rotfl::rotfl:. Thank goodness for straightners these days:D.
"Champagne moments" for today were my dental costs being much less than expected and after having a serious cull of my personal paperwork getting it all re-filed and put back in the cupboard.:)
My various pots of money are coming in handy as I've had a number of largeish outlays regarding my Dad's affairs. I'll get the money back once his estate is settled but it feels good to know I can cover these in the short term without dipping into my main savings with the resulting loss of interest. I feel for folk that aren't able to do this and end up with debt when a loved one dies.:(

Well done to everyone who is losing weight and hugs to caronc. I lost my mother last year. She died after moving to a nursing home, just as we were in the process of selling her flat, so everything had to be on hold until the estate was sorted out..
I have started to get quotes for refurbishing my bathroom, which I think will be nearer champagne than lemonade but will be worth it in the end.

Definitely worth it ancientmum. Had my bathroom done last year. Cost an arm and a leg but I absolutely love it.

My Champagne moment today was having my grandson pay an unexpected visit this morning. It was such a relief to see him and to be able to give him a really big hug as he is really struggling at the moment.

I went to see the film Dumbo today at my local Odeon and I had such a fun time. I felt my inner child really relishing every second of this incredible remake of the original film. This film was even better than the original Disney cartoon. I would give this film 10/10 :j:D
