So I was wondering, I probably should have been doing some of the sins I am about to confess to Grin. Is it just me are is everyone else really bad at polishing shoes, fixing loose buttons etc, just the little things that probably would really help, I don't plan either just grab stuff as I get ready for work.

I do these things and used to enjoy it weirdo. I fucking hate it now - so time consuming and faffy. I loathe getting trousers taken up etc. but still do it as it makes such a massive difference. However, I do polish over chipped toe nails often.

Oh I'm rubbish at it. But last year I did finally organise my tights as it was getting ridiculously stupid trying to find the right ones. They all get bagged up be denier and colour. First sign of a run and they're in the bin if they're thin and families. Thick ones if it won't fix with nail varnish or be hidden by long boots they're out too.

The episode that led to this was the wrong colour tights with a hole in them. Looked more like a bag lady than normal. Essentially I shamed myself into sorting it out LOL

Totally me - always running out of time - the other morning realised my legs and under arms needed a top up shave so I did it whilst already dressed and in shoes! I am way beyond buttons hanging off - my go to summer culottes have lost tbeir button but the tie waist belt covers over it, so I don't care.
