At the weekend I...
- 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!!

So you're moving?! Woo! Very exciting, but yeah, probably won't get a chance to paint your nails again anytime soon! :)
And your cake looks fantastic!! x
God I want your cake SO MUCH!!!
Sorry about your bad news but really pleased by your good news.
Fingers crossed for you!
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!
That cake looks amazing - picture perfect! x
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).
Does that mean they accepted your offer? Hooray, such good news! Your lemon cakes looks utterly delicious!
