I’m a lot better today, thanks :). Feeling cautiously optimistic that I have turned the corner. I hadn’t realised how debilitating three weeks of toothache was and it kept me on painkillers long after I needed them for my boobs. So I was feeling pretty constantly nauseous or woozy. Mouth is still niggling but I hope it’s settling and I haven’t needed any analgesia at all for about 36 hours so everything feels more manageable. I think the toothache disturbing my sleep, coupled with my fear of DVT which meant I didn’t rest properly at all for the first two weeks had me exhausted and worn down. Add opiates, antibiotics, anti coagulants and anti inflammatories to the mix and it was a recipie for feeling crap. Slept for 12 hours last night though, boobs have suddenly softened a lot and generally feeling a lot more human.

DD had to go to uni for a meeting with her supervisor so she’s dropped me in town for a couple of hours and it’s feeling lovely just to wander round the shops and have a coffee. Feel much more like myself than the down, weepy mess I’ve been.

woowoo, I tried that coat when I was a 12 on the bottom and an extremely busty 14 on top (32K). The 12 fitted well.

WooWooWitchetyWoo · 13/03/2019 14:25

Thank you ilovecherries I've gone for the 12 Smile

Glad you're feeling better ella

laska you should definitely persevere with the sewing, what with the dye projects you are clearly a creative type.

Today I am wearing dark blue skinny jeans and a burgundy jumper from Whistles. It's blowing a gale outside!

Has anyone tried the Hush Angela side stripe jumper?

ilovecherries · 13/03/2019 15:04

I’ve just bought 4 cotton slub v neck tees in Debenhams for £24. Tbh, I’m not seeing a big difference in quality between them and the hush ones.

Ellapaella · 13/03/2019 15:29

Got a link cherries?

Think this is it, ella. I bought two white, a mint, and a red. www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_057030410780_-1

Hello ladies Smile I don’t suppose anyone has the black wool biker (currently on sale for £90)... I’ve just ordered one in a panic because I’m heading to the US in a couple of days with no frigging jacket to wear. Bit worried I have A: Bought too big and B: bought something that will make me look like a hippo!

dontcallmelen · 13/03/2019 18:46

Cherries so glad you are feeling much more ‘you’ yy cocktail of drugs does play havoc physically & mentally.
Ella glad you & mini are feeling much more chipper as well.
Laska sounds like a very good plan & yy maybe having another go at sewing, my dm was sooo talented wish I had tried a bit harder when she tried to teach me, I get so frustrated as I’m quite creative as well yet can’t get my head around patterns/cutting etc.
Was out with dd & dgd today, H&M have some nice stuff in they had a lovely khaki silky pleated skirt, denim dungarees & some really good wide leg tailored trousers all good prices (I resisted 😇)

neveradullmoment99 · 14/03/2019 12:29

@cherries, thats a great buy on the debenhams tees. @Ella, love the top on you. Its really nice. I suppose it does depend upon how versatile it is. As for me, haven't ordered anything yet. I have my ds birthday in April so really need to watch what i spend this month. So am being very careful. Trying to exercise and loose weight by fasting Monday, Wednesday. I had a good week but find i am really hungry on my non fast days so have to temper what i eat and especially so after exercise!!!
Today i am wearing my old hush long line long sleeved top in blue iris under my denim F&F pinny! tights and boots.

neveradullmoment99 · 14/03/2019 12:54

so have placed a little order for the leopard dress. So will hopefully come tomorrow. It looks pretty short on the model but she is much taller so should be a few inches longer and plus i have shaping up my legs ha ha ha....fine with leggings or tights im sure.

neveradullmoment99 · 14/03/2019 12:54

*I have been that should have said.

twosoups1972 · 14/03/2019 15:16

cherries they look good and a great price.

Hush have £20 off selected jackets and jumpers including the green Angela side stripe jumper I have my eye on. I may try it.

neveradullmoment99 · 14/03/2019 15:23

Its a lovely jumper soups but being sallow it sadly probably wouldn't be the best colour but it looks gorgeous. Would love to see it on you.

neveradullmoment99 · 14/03/2019 15:24

Oh I thought it was the fleck one. The angela jumper is lovely too.

Ellapaella · 14/03/2019 18:38

Sandals arrived - Likey Smile

Very pretty sandals @ella :)

Ellapaella · 14/03/2019 18:53

Looking forward to seeing the leopard dress never

OP posts:
Ellapaella · 14/03/2019 18:54

I have been tempted by that dress but was also a bit concerned by how short it looked, looking forward to seeing how it is on you. I'm 5'7, how tall are you never?

OP posts:
neveradullmoment99 · 14/03/2019 18:56

I am nearly 5ft 6. Hopefully it wont be too short. It reminds me very much of some whistles dresses I have had.

Unbelievable18 · 14/03/2019 18:58

@Ellapaella where is the lovely white broderie top from please? I love it on you. Sandals are very nice as well!

neveradullmoment99 · 14/03/2019 18:59

I also ordered the black jumpsuit. We will see. It will be a choice between both not keeping both. [ the sleeveless cropped one] Thought it might look nice with a tee under it.

Ellapaella · 14/03/2019 19:04

@Unbelievable18 it's from New Look, I'll see if I can find a link

Laska2Meryls · 14/03/2019 19:05

Nice sandals ella yes, bring on the sun! it looks like another stormy weekend here

I didn't get an email about £20 off knitwear, but I did about enew Aster collection (that hast been on prshots..Hmm ) . What do we think?

Its not 'me' ( luckily) or the resolve may have been tested!! Grin

Never have I just seen you selling on ebay ? GrinWink.. I have watched a Hush jumper on there (a replacement for one of my favourites which I have snagged so i figure it wouldn't count if I got it ) ..
