Annie what a lovely photo- you look lovely.

Liberty, fantastic wedding dress bargain.

Shop, we go holiday on Sunday too and I have a very long list that I am working through. So long as I'm super organised, I don't get stressed much. Ds1 is house and dog sitting which helps a bit but have booked my cleaner to come in the day before we get back as his idea of clean and tidy differs somewhat from mine!

MarshaBrady · 22/07/2014 17:44

My bag and I just did work environment. Went down a storm Grin

Defo picked the right one!

Can't believe this, but we still need to book holidays. Work is a moveable feast, tricky.

OneLittleLady · 22/07/2014 18:25

thanks for posting shop have only just had a minute to say thanks, have been out all day helping my brother with some forms and stuff

Amber I bought a bright pink printed with pineapples, lightweight, loop scarf thingy today. I can definitely see you in one!

Thanks Shop! Ordered whist in Sainsbury's multi tasking.

Great when the other flats need a rest.

shopafrolic · 22/07/2014 19:51

LOVE that Marsha - multi tasking indeed! :)

I'm too late Shop Sad
Well, hallelujah , I've made it to the end if term in one piece and still haven't touched wine for 10 days but will do tomorrow as anti biotics finished
Thought I'd throw caution to the wind and wear white Baxters to work......8year old had a huge nose bleed. Like the total pro that I am I donned rubber gloves, gave him masses of tissues and matched him inside .....at arms length with the words "don't you dare touch my jeans" Grin farmer's son, he's toughWink

Shop I'm like Sleep, don't stress about hols, just get v excited. Usually start piling stuff on spare bed a week before. There's nothing I can't buy, even abroad. The only thing I worry about I'd DH's time keeping Sad causes major arguments. Can't clean my house this year.....that will make me a bit sad but I'll come back to 2 brand new bathroomsGrin

MarshaBrady · 22/07/2014 22:16

lol Dry you are a pro! Did any get on your Baxters??

I'm a very last minute packer, but early turner upper to airports. Aren't I Novice? Wink

MarshaBrady · 22/07/2014 22:22

I ordered this Rag&Bone t today.

and finally got round to ordering these Paige verdugo skinnies. But if there's a hint of dark indigo going onto the bag, they are out, the bag comes first!

Drywhiteplease · 22/07/2014 22:47

Marsha the Baxters survived so did the boy

libertychick · 22/07/2014 23:04

Good prioritisation Marsha!!! Sounds like you are loving the bag Smile

Coming home to new bathrooms sounds fantastic Dry.

DH bought me this Pandora pendant for my birthday - not on the list but 'inspired' by the list and I do like it!! It works well layered with some of my other silver necklaces.

Went into Jigsaw today and bought grey slouchy short sleeve sweater and long pale grey cardi. All I seem to have done in these summer sales is buy A/W clothes Grin

What I really want is a work dress in cotton, blue or pink. Something pretty but smart. Can I find this elusive thing? Can I hell!!! Actually it does exist this is it sold out every sodding where (sob) Sad

MarshaBrady · 22/07/2014 23:35

Lovely stuff Liberty! I know, that dress is so pretty. I had the white version on my wish moist for ages but didn't get round to ordering it.

Buying AW stuff in the sales is a good way to go, pretty much all my stuff is for AW too.

libertychick · 22/07/2014 23:40

Oh I didn't realise it was the same as the white one you were looking at Marsha! I remember that now. I am kicking myself as it was on Matches last night in a 10 and I decided I would probably need the 12 so decided not to order but wishing now I had tried the 10 - darn. I have it wishlisted in the 12 just in case hopes somebody somewhere hates it and returns it

MarshaBrady · 22/07/2014 23:48

Oh god am laughing, wish moist?! Sounds a bit rude. Wish list! Grin

Yes I hope they send it back, I get daily emails nearly from Matches with stuff on my list people have sent back.

Sleepwhenidie · 23/07/2014 07:44

Face=>Palm Shop I left eyelash tint off the imperative list! all joking aside fake tan would actually be on mine Grin

Sleepwhenidie · 23/07/2014 07:45

Belated happy birthday Liberty Smile

Fedupnagging · 23/07/2014 08:27

Morning all

Liberty, lovely necklace from your dh and I also like your knitwear links esp the s/s jumper. The dress is really nice and can see you in it so shame it is out of stock.

Marsha, sounds like you are enjoying your bag!

So, dh rolled in at midnight last night from a business trip to Europe with
this mascara as I had requested. He also brought me this in the large size which I had not requested. I am very pleased Smile

Weather is dull but pretty warm here today. Am meeting with friends to do a long dog walk followed by coffee and cake in a while. Can't decide what to wear yet.

Drywhiteplease · 23/07/2014 08:36

Nice Fedup
Shame about the dress liberty it's v you.
Marsha how's the wish moist today? Grin

Plans for today......gym (painful) shopping with DS(painful) drinks to celebrate holidays at friend's house (could be painful tomorrowGrin) prosecco in fridge already.

shopafrolic · 23/07/2014 08:42

LOL Sleep - got suitcases down last night so feeling better.
All bets now off anyway as lovely friend has had a new baby which has ended up in ICU. Today will be spent food shopping and cleaning their house (they only just moved in) to help out.

OP posts:
Fedupnagging · 23/07/2014 08:54

Shop sorry for your friend. Yes something like that puts everything into perspective. I can't imagine how she is feeling right now but hope her baby gets better ASAP.

Good luck today Dry! I will be taking ds2 shopping tomorrow which will be pretty painful too. I am also trying to persuade him to get a haircut. So far, nothing doing - he says he's growing it! It just looks an absolute
mess.

libertychick · 23/07/2014 08:59

Your poor friend shop. What a nightmare. Hope baby is out of ICU soon.

Fake tan is on my holiday essentials list too sleep. Eyelash tint is a good idea. I can't tolerate mascara in the heat.

BrandyAlexander · 23/07/2014 09:40

Morning all.

Hangover + 3 yo pestering me at 6am = hell.
