What is being delivered to you today?

[Passerillage]

We're going away for Easter, so I've ordered a few things for the first time in ages, and I'm childlishly excited about today's deliveries:

New swimsuit for me - I've ordered 2 so that in theory the one that suits me less can go back, but realistically I know I'm hoping to keep them both. There was a 25% discount code, so really, I'm SAVING money. 😉

Beauty Pie order - mostly just a restock for me & dd1, but still fun.

A dress from the clearance sale on Joules, but that might not come til tomorrow. I haven't bought new clothes since September, so this is quite exciting even if it was only £23.

Trainers for dd1 from Ebay

GCSE language workbooks for dd1 (less thrilling, but quite a coup to find this specific book and have it delivered before her class today).

I much prefer this to actually going out shopping.

A blue hydrangea.

Hopefully nothing. I am trying to declutter and live minimally rather than buy. My teen DD doesn’t feel the same unfortunately.

2 black Maribou feather fans

Very nice coffee. My mil bought me a few different varieties for Christmas a few years ago and I really enjoyed it so now it is my treat.

Probiotics and face sunscreen factor 50 for holiday!

Here it is if anyone is interested. Footprint Coffee

We've been decluttering too. It's been a lot easier as the kids get bigger and don't grow out of clothes QUITE as fast any more. But also the bump in cost of living has put "cluttering" a bit out of reach! So this week's spree is a rare occurance, which is probably no harm.

I'm doing a brutal declutter ahead of bin day later today when I take a break from work.

Haha, fun thread!

Here I'm expecting a school tie for my DS (yawn!) and a pile of photo prints from Snapfish, to go into some nice new collage frames! Excited about those.

A Shein order!! 😊😊😊

Supposedly my new wellies, that I've been told will defs be delivered "today" everyday this past week, so I have my doubts!

A PS5. Our PS4 finally died after 8 years' long service. The excitement in the house is palpable 🙂

I do all my shopping online. Not been to a shopping centre since before covid. Much prefer ordering online. What’s not to like!

4 pairs of Croc's ( 1 set each for me, DH and the "Fosties") to use in the car or caravan after taking off muddy walking boots.

Biography of Eleanor Roosevelt for me, as I just watched a series about American 1st ladies, and I want to find out more about her.

No doubt DD has ordered something to arrive today! Enjoy your spree and Easter trip!

Dog food, door mat for said dogs, the required boo for book club.

New trail shoes! Possibly going to be too small but they only had the size I think I need in black. These are blue. So it was worth the risk - I can send them back if they are too small!

Wide leg trousers from m&s

2 vintage Hotwheels cars Ds1 got from ebay.

Some work books for DH from a colleague.

14 bottles of wine (mostly fizz 😊) from naked wines, my balance has been building, as I was ill and hadn't finished the last case. Only ordered it last night 😳

And £80 worth of deadstock fabric, which I desperately want to find time to make some holiday clothes from at the weekend. Really excited to see and feel it irl.

DD has a few holiday bits on the way, but not sure if they will come today.

We can only buy clothes online, because nowhere stocks their tall ranges in store, and she's just tipped into the tall range (at 14 😭) so she's very excited for clothes fit!

At 9 am I saw a message telling me my parcel would be here by 10. I was still in my PJs (am retired) and DH was out so I waited. And waited. And waited. Still not here. I feel stinky and need a wee.

Nothing today but a postpartum asos order tomorrow (which I’m a bit apprehensive about…) and a lookfantastic order, I ordered some potions to hopefully take my crazy post baby hair and also the benefit prow pomade.

I’ve also just done an argos order for a new light shade for DS2 room, and a laundry basket and waste paper bin for DS1 room in the vain hope it might keep it tidier…

Sack of cat litter.

Two slimline washing baskets to try and make the bedrooms look a bit neater.

I am actually quite excited 😄

Bin bags.
Ask next month and the answer will be very different as DD1 will be home from University!

3 pairs of ice skates and accessories (new hobby which is going well so have taken the plunge😁) and collagen my friend swears by and looks far younger than her 45 years. Very excited for both.
