Day 138: Saturday 28th August 2010

I have literally never felt this close to death. Don't mix your drinks kids. Here are the only things getting me through today....

Can I go back to bed yet?



Day 137: Friday 27th August 2010

Had a brilliant day today, took an extended lunch break to go see Scott Pilgrim Vs The World at the cinema with Antony and then this evening I went for dinner and drinks for a friends birthday! Good times.

Tried to take pictures of my outfit/hair, but I suck at taking pictures of myself! Here are the outtakes...



Day 136: Thursday 26th August 2010

I love packages :) Today I got a rather nice spotty one from Topshop full of sparkly new bikini's for my holiday!! Off to Turkey on the 6th September with my man and his family- cannot wait to get some sun!

Day 135: Wednesday 25th August 2010

I may have visited a shop or two today... check out everything I got over on my style blog, here's a sneaky peek..

Day 134: Tuesday 24th August 2010

Tonight my sister came over for a girly night in! Being a very talented hairdresser too she coloured my hair! Got some blond bits put in ready for sunny holiday in a couple of weeks :o

Day 133: Monday 23rd August 2010

A whole week of writing for me this week! Got myself some time off from shopkeeping :) Tonight I went over to see Antony and ate lotsa Pizza!! NOM.

Day 132: Sunday 22nd August 2010

Was at a bit of a loss as to what to do today- never normally have Sundays off! So in the end me and the parents headed to Richmond for a lovely afternoon by the river :)

Of course, I took lots of photos! Here are the best ones...





Day 131: Saturday 21st August 2010

I have the weekend off work!! Wahooo! Today was a thoroughly relaxing day at home catching up with blogging, reading magazines and watching rubbish TV. Fab.

Here's a corner of my room, where I spent most of my day :D

Day 130: Friday 20th August 2010

Watched a lot of new music talent show 'Must be the Music' tonight- and it was actually bloody good! Instead of simply looking for someone that can hold a note, they are actively looking for a talented musician, be that a singer/songwriter, pianist, rapper, band- anyone with originality and talent. Felt quite refreshing.

Here's a musical picture for ya.

Day 129: Thursday 19th August 2010

Worked from home all day today so my picture comes to you from the exciting world of my kitchen!

Wednesday 18 August 2010

Day 128: Wednesday 18th August 2010

Shopkept all day today! boooo.

Visited my mum's charity shop during my lunch though and found loads of beauties (will be posting about all of them later over at Style Limbo), My fave bit was probably this locket...



And it had some photo's inside! How romantic :)

Day 127: Tuesday 17th August 2010

My day was thoroughly productive today. First I worked, (yawn), then I took Mr. Gingerbread Man on a lil trip...



First he headed to India and rode an elephant!



He then visited Thailand and walked with tigers at the Tiger Temple...



Then he got bored of animals and skipped over to Africa where he proceeded to try chatting up this local woman...



But then her Ninja boyfriend turned up...



Finally, after wondering the earth alone and full of sugar, he finally found a friend for life and fellow freak... Wall-E.

Day 127: Monday 16th August 2010

Went for an evening out with my parents tonight! Went for a yummy dinner and then saw Toystory 3! GREAT FILM. Ken is my Idol. Here's a dodgy pic on my I=phone of where we ate...

Day 126: Sunday 15th August 2010

Today was less inspiring. Here's my ceiling.

Day 125: Saturday 14th August 2010

Day off! woop didi woop! Much fun was had this evening by myself and my friends Zoe and Rochelle, went out for a much needed drink and a dance :)

However my pictures have nothing to do with this, instead they document a day of cheap fun for me and Antony in our friendly local garden center!

There were bunnys...



Parrots....



And an army of Meercats...

Day 124: Friday 13th August 2010

Happy Friday the 13th everyone! 13 has always been kinda a lucky number in our family, so wasn't bothered by its presence. Went to see the beautiful man tonight and proceeded to take a picture of shadows because I have officially run out of things to snap in his room!

Day 123: Thursday 12th August 2010

Cannot believe it has taken me this long to take a picture of Muffin the mule!! A legend of the small screen and indeed my childhood. Will keep him forever and creep out my grandkids with him.

Day 122: Wednesday 11th August 2010

No real explanation for this picture- just what was lying on my bathroom counter. I know- DEEP. Pretty though, in a high-gloss beauty ad kinda way.

Day 121: Tuesday 10th August 2010

URGH- this weather is depressing me. We're in mid August and outside looks like this...



WTF sky?

Day 120: Monday 9th August 2010

Fairly non-descript day today- work, work work. And some pretty flowers. Naaaww.

Day 119: Sunday 8th August 2010

First of all- HAPPY BIRTHDAY FI! (One of my good friends who has been featured in here a couple of times :)

My picture today is not of the beautiful Fi however, she was busy having a brilliant surfing weekend in Devon! I had to work and spent the evening with ma man. I took a pic of his geetar and collection of comics/mags. The Rolling Stones mag from the 70's with Fleetwood Mac on the cover you see there was a present from me! Love it.

Day 118: Saturday 7th August 2010

DAY OFF! I know, I get far too excited about this every week, but hey. Went for a lovely lunch with two friends and now I'm just gonna chill the f*** out for the rest of the afternoon. Took a pic of my new skirt because its the first fashionable treat I've given myself for months and it made me happy :)

Day 117: Friday 6th August 2010

Worked from home all day today. Was in a bit of a blah mood if I'm honest, but then I saw this gem in my old bedroom and it cheered me up. Bring back overly colourful 80's body warmers!

Day 116: Thursday 5th August 2010

RIGHT, so today I went over to Antony's for the evening after work and...um... kinda forgot me camera. So politely asked my dad if he would take a snap for me! I know it's cheating... oh well :)



(That's a bell out of focus in front of our garden btw)

Day 115: Wednesday 4th August 2010

Took another reflection shot today- from our mirrored bin in our bathroom (classy, right?), like the distortion. Ignore my face in the corner...

Day 114: Tuesday 3rd August 2010

Another day another dollar. Or is it another dollar another day? Either way this week looks like this- work, get changed into uniform, different work, come home, get changed into baggy jeans, work some more, sleep. Then I wake up and do it all over again! All worth it though...

In other news I took a picture of some flowers today! My mum always has a fresh bunch knocking around.

Monday 2 August 2010

Day 113: Monday 2nd August 2010

Read an article in the latest Elle magazine about lists and whether or not they are useful- personally I'm a list fiend! So I thought I'd take a photo of my list of fashion brands...



I don't know if you noticed but i really like both crossing them off AND ticking once they're done. I'm cool.

Day 112: Sunday 1st August 2010

Got home from work today to find the typewriter of my dreams! I had a dream ages ago about a pale blue vintage typewriter, but it cost £50,000 so even in my dreams I couldn't get what I want! But my lovely sister walked passed a charity shop (in real life!) and saw one in the window for a measly £25! So she kindly picked it up for me- proof that dreams do come true. OH YES.
