WISELY wandering towards Spring, we are Avidly selecting seasonal things...

[notyummy]

Not very inspiring- think the tiredness is showing!

hopefully It's like a hot stone massage. Instead of stones they use seashells from the Seychelles which are filled with some lava-like stuff to keep them hot. It was great, really!

mim Rest, rest, rest if you can. Hope you are not too uncomfortable.

Forgot what else I wanted to say. DD is in bed and needed extra cuddles

Thank you for the kind messages about my mother I`m very touched. My relatives left today so been catching up on housework.. joy !.

Sorry you feel bad MIM put your feet up and relax, you have done an brilliant job already.

I ordered one of those Graze boxes to stop me nibbling biscuits might help the calorie counters too.

Ring Hopefully check out their customer service.

Bidsitter Red or Ill win it for you I wont post my method here but its good.

I flirted with the ocado driver ny ( my favourite one) though he is not good looking, intelligient or witty. I need to go out more.

Exciting week for W&A I`m looking forward to style reports about MU already.

I have a code for IO 25% if anyone needs it.

Lastly I leave you a quandary Smythson Emily Red. Mini Gracie, or Mulberry of choice. ? What would you do.

red I think that white shirt is good. I sometimes wear one of DH's white shirts, probably looks ridiculous and too oversized. Will check out bonsoir's link from this morning too.

Hello everyone.

Slay...you poor thing. So sorry to hear of your loss.

Icey - wonderful name. Hope you are being pampered, enjoy ! How is P with the new incumbent?

MiM...Sweeps have worked for me in the past so fingers (and toes) crossed for you too!

Decam...hope you are feeling much better.

Fritzi - love the citrus clutch...love that colour. Looking for some clothes in that shade.

Bloss...hope you are feeling better too. I find that particular time of the month to be a time when I need to eat a bit more protein for the energy boost.

Red- new bathroom sounds very nice. So exciting. We are just putting final touches to the plans and I can't wait to get into the finer details.

Verity - belated Happy Birthday...We were born in the same year. I'm August....

Bonsoir- Marni stuff is lovely - you chose well!

Crappy 24 hours here. DD2 very poorly with vomiting and ear infection. DH away (unsurprisingly), and feel a bit peed off. She screamed through most of last night...was totally incosolable. Hope things better tonight. Also worried about my Dad who has been unwell with Noro virus since weekend. Fingers crossed people. Am wolfing down Risotto to cheer myself up!

Oh dear, I've killed the thread!

Hi dauphin! Hope you get some rest tonight and DD recovers quickly.

Ta-da: Another scarf for bloss .

Ooh nice fritzi!
Hope things get better soon chez dauphin
gorgeous outfit. Great styling at Matches right now.

slay I think you need deca's advice for the right choice of bags. She might tell you to get all three though

Slay, if I had a mini gracie I'd wear it just like this.

Ooh Slay what a conundrum to have - all depends on which bags you currently own and where the gaps are. Yes, you do need Decameron. Am intrigued by your methods - please do fill me in.

That is a lovely outfit Bloss and I own similar. May try to recreate.

Hope tonight is a better one Dauphin and that your DD and Dad recover quickly.

MiM you seem happier about that decision - great that they're 'letting' you wait for another week.

Bonsoir I did try searching for the shirt you mentioned but couldn't come up with anything - perhaps a brand only available in France? Fritzi I just slipped one of DH's shirts on and it looked, well, ok; although will look better in one designed for someone under 6ft!

hopefully Leather jacket for you?

Dauphin, MW neon jumper. Hope both DD and your Dad are on the mend. Pity you have had to cope on your own, is DH back now? Enjoy your risotto.

Just sent a PM to meet up people - Ants, whatever version I try of your name it tells me I have it wrong, so just PM me and I will reply!!

Thanks NY - will all go out of my head on the day, am sure!

Thanks Fritzi will try to hunt it down on Sat with my swatch book in hand! So glad you didn't have lava poured on you

Pickled I like that neon jumper (although colour awful on me), am generally really liking Theory stuff atm, although out of my price range on the whole!

Dauphin I hope your DD is better tonight and you get some sleep.

Slay think I will give them a call tomorrow. Am at you flirting with your Ocado driver.

Have topped off my 928 calorie overload with Shred (good) and Ben & Jerrys Phish food (bad).

Tomorrow's another day, right? Possibly time to pull out the fat pants for MU...

Thanks ny.
Beef curry worked a treat. Really hot and spicy. Think I was craving red meat. DH has given me a stern talking to re eating more. He is probably right. I think I have reached my goal, and more, and should be aiming for maintenance now.
I need to start prepping for MU: organize outfits, flex credit card, fake tan...

Bloss, glad you are feeling better. Yum, curry.

Matches is a great store, staff not pushy and they have coffee on offer and toys to amuse the children. I also like the pretty boxes they package their clothes in.

Red, your house will be so lovely.

Mim, glad you have an end date in sight.

Slay, I prefer the Gracie to the Emily. I have the regular size Gracie and it is quite a classic bag. I also really like my tan Alexa.

A woman commented on my baby's strawberry birthmark in the GP's waiting room today, told me she would be bullied at school because of it and it looked odd. It is behind her ear so not noticeable and several doctors have told me it will disappear by the time she is 4 or 5. I think it is quite cute, it is heart shaped. How can someone be so rude about a little child.
Dauphin, hope your DD and dad get well soon.

Hate typing on my phone so chat tomorrow!

Decameron how bloody rude! Hope you gave her a stare of death.

It's weird to start revising the name list for MU, right?

Decameron outrageous comment! Completely ridiculous. I would have been fuming.

Portia, you're welcome to the silk top - which one though? I will pm you.

MiM, I hope you're feeling a bit more comfortable now, glad to hear you're feeling relatively calm about either possibility.

Slay, I didn't say earlier, I'm so sorry about your mum. Of your handbag choices, I'd go for Gracie I think.

The memorisation of the names for the MU is funny, I did the same last year! Red we can test each other on the train.

Ollie, the Marni/H&M dress I have is the zigzag one not the spot one, I'm happy to bring it to the MU if you want to try, returns are within 28 days so no rush.

And Dauphin, hope tonight is calm and all in your family are feeling better very soon. Parents are a worry sometimes, there's been a noticeable shift in the 'who worries about who' dynamic for me lately.

I'm waiting for DH to drive back from Heathrow, no point in going to bed as he is incapable of sneaking in quietly.

Bloss, glad you are feeling better. Yum, curry.

Ooops, sorry, posted twice. Yes, I gave her a dirty look!

Aww Decameron, how nasty, I'm afraid she would have got a piece of my mind, and it wouldn't be a MFP portion size either. Yesterday in the park my DD was cheerfully sitting on the grass enjoying nature when a lady helpfully pointed out she was chewing on a twig. She was most horrified when I said 'yes, I know' and went back to reading my magazine. Hasten to add dogs aren't allowed in that park and it was very blunt [not germphobic]

Oh Decameron I would have struggled not to twat her one. How unbelivably, hideously rude. My sister was born with only a very small piece of cartilage in place of one of her ears and the stuff people used to say to my Mum - one woman stopped her to ask if she knew her daughter was missing an ear. have never been into a Matches, shall rectify forthwith.

Apuski I look forward to it!

Glad you're feeling better Bloss. Sensible man, your DH.
