Fabbing wise, I am about to take off my makeup and use that avocado face mask and then lots of moisturiser and an eye cream. I am also shaving my legs in the bath later. I went for a short walk today and it is very warm here. Not too hot, which is nice.
Oh yes, I am currently wearing my new white sandals around the house to break them in when I wear them outside. I'm wearing them with my nightshirt.
I don't have any delivery men coming round to answer the door looking like this, luckily.6 -
Sandals and a nightshirt! That's quite an outfit! 🤣
Great news about your husband. What a relief for you both. 😊 What with your PIP and that news you can move forward to your new stage of life. It seems that moving out of the city is a new trend. You were ahead in your thinking.
Healthy eating and hydration is good for your general health regardless of the vaccine so all good. 😊7 -
pixie sorry to read about your burn. They can be so so painful, I hope it heals nicely.
maman I love your door bell. It’s actually a bell!!! Please can you invite me round so I can ring it. I don’t need to come in, I’ll happily stand outside and just ring the bell. There aren’t many opportunities to ring bells anymore.
Your bargain roses look beautiful and very chic. Inspired by you, I popped to our local co op on my way home, but they don’t seem to sell flowers.
Wednesday I’m so pleased about your DHs test results. What a relief. Your plans for your big move are very exciting. I’ll be looking forward to reading all about your adventures.6 -
Thanks Chanie!
I know Maman, it feels like we are having a run of good luck at the moment.I do drink lots of water anyway, but now I am really drinking a lot the past two days, I think the nurse said that to me because of the thrombosis risk.
They asked me a lot of questions before the jab this time and told me it takes 21 days for immunity. I said to her that I thought it was 15 days, but she said it was 21. My friend had his second AZ jab too and they told him that he shouldn't drive for 15 minutes after his jab. They didn't say that after the first jab. Strange.
I had to take my sandals off as they were too uncomfortable. I always find a lot of footwear uncomfortable, it's annoying,
Oh yes, I also bought some fake tan to try and some new tights from Amazon as my old ones were getting holes in them. I have some B hair removal cream and I think I will do my bikini line and my arms tomorrow. I think I did my arms last summer. The hair is quite fair on my arms but I thought I would try it again. I thought the fake tan might go on easier afterwards as well.

Pleased about your news Wednesday. Can't type much, right hand is so painful and left hand is slow. Can't sleep but going to try more painkillers. Hope to see doctor tomorrow.
Beach is lovely but busy.7 -
Thanks Sugarbaby and CG.
Sorry your hand is still hurting Pixie. I hope you get an appointment tomorrow.
I think it is supposed to be hot here today. I am just going for a short walk to feed the birds and I will wear my sandals out to see if I can walk in them okay outside the house!
I have been trying to declutter and tidy for a while now so if I am feeling energetic I might reorganise my kitchen cupboards later. I will at least make a start.2025 GOALS

Hope you get an appointment today for your hand pixie. 😊
It's hot here Wednesday but quite humid with it. I need to go out later to get some birthday cards. I've not worn my sandals yet but. like you, might try them out for a short walk.
I've had a lovely pamper session and put on some fake tan mixed with my body lotion. I'm using up a Garnier one and then I'll buy my favourite.
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Natural Bronze Body Lotion 400ml | Superdrug
I notice it's on offer in Superdrug so I will buy one today if they have it. My local branch is quite small so they don't stock everything. I wore a skirt when we went out yesterday and was very conscious of my pale legs.
I need to think through my 'one mile clothes' for summer. I have a few good dresses for going out. I don't like shorts but what to wear when it's too hot for leggings and a tee shirt. 🤔5 -
Sorry I've been missing. Last month wasn't a very good one health wise. All a bit up and down. But I'm ready to take on June and get going properly again.
Himself had a telephone appointment with a consultant at the hospital today. He has been told to make some lifestyle changes. Less alcohol, more exercise, etc, etc, etc. I don't quite know how I'm going to convince him to do it. I've got back to eating properly and I'm not drinking. Intending to have a walk tomorrow. Maybe that will spur him on.
Must make an appointment with the hairdresser tomorrow.Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.5
