Had mega stress sessions - having to replace Boyfriend's car (due to recent accident and insurance deciding it was a write off) couldn't have come at the worst time...
Totally knocked my leg, yet again, in one of the corners of our bed - I now sport a rather ugly black and blue mark just below my knee. Not only it is really unsightly, but it bloody hurt too.
Finished my beautiful knitted project - more on this when it's finished blocking! And here's to hoping for a little cold spell before Spring truly kicks in, I'd like to wear said knitted item before November!
Picked up some mindless cross stitch. You just can't go wrong with cross stitch, it's just so easy, and doesn't make a mess in the living room. Bonus when you're trying to keep things tidy and organised.
Made a really tasty cake. Lemon and vanilla cake. So nice and fresh, perfect for this time of year.
Painted my toe nails red - even if they don't get out much, I feel so much more lady-like in the shower. And when I get out of bed. Trust me, feeling nice on the inside makes a massive difference to how you carry yourself on the outside.
Even found some time to paint my fingernails. That doesn't happen as often as I'd like to because, well, I'm a busy lady! Always have something to do, washing up, crafting, cleaning, cooking, and drying nails aren't very conducive to such activities. On the other hand, sitting in the in-laws' garden in the sun waiting for Sunday lunch to be served up is a perfectly conducive activity.
Enjoyed basking in the sun in said garden, wasn't the weather totally amazing this weekend? So warm (well, really quite hot some times!) that the back of my jeans felt a little sweaty after a while. Not a nice detail I know, but definitely I sign I must get ready to get skirts out!!! (Well, only after I get rid of my massive bruise first).
And last, but truly far from least, revelled in the fact that someone has changed their mind.... do you think the vendor reads my blog and felt threatened?! I was in a rather foul mood when I wrote that post, so I don't blame them!!
Congratulations - lots of exciting times to look forward to.
I sympathise with your bruising. I fell down the stairs on Friday night (only two, wasn't drunk but was hungover) and bruised my back and my arm - ouch!
Sounds like potentially very good house news!! And I am hoping your finished knitting is what I think it is (I am more than a little obsessed with it, you see).
So much to keep up with - i'm so rubbish! Only a few days go by and everyone is blogging like crazy! Think I've caught up now...I hope! Italy will throw a spanner in the works but oh well! xxx
