do you like my lovely vile floral curtains that came with the house? this is my completely gorgeous lambs leather skirt and beaded top from kookai. i LOVE them!

dad has been picking these sweetpeas for mum every day when theyve been in bloom!

two very different sky shots and the same view :)

izzy and matt helping with the garden and some of the things we found...

this little biddy baby caterpillar had 'ugly bug ball' in my head from Summer Magic!

yay

i got a gorgeous bouquet of flowers of the boyf sent to work today :)
sex this morning (tmi maybe? :P)
to play with my dogs
and the area manager came to work and loved Kristiana's section (kids) and mine (travel, religion, philosophy and MBS- mind body and spirit) she thought they were kept at a high standard, well presented, tidy, looked after, she was please i knew my figures, that my shelf offers had done really well (some of the best in the entire store last month) and she was happy i knew my stock and customers. she also liked my honesty, i admitted i was new to using Product Group reports but found them interesting and she was happy i was prepared and passionate. so really really positive and we had a good chat about travelling and Glee...

the only low points of my day were my pounding head and the fact i didnt get any banana liqueur when i went shopping the other day as it means i cant make a bahama mama!

tomorrow i shall be going to specsavers to tell them theyre useless wankers and to get money back off them. to physio for brenden to see my back, to my farm so glyn can buy a pie and we can buy something for tea! to holmfirth to see my pottery clock which is exhibited at the local tourist information office there and to look for a sweet shop and to buy some creamed tofu and palm oil 'butter' from the health food shop

hopefully my hall will loose some of its horrid brown, untouched ikea boxes containing furntire. we NEED to finish painting my room so we can put up the shelves in there and finally get the rest of my desk put together. tho tomorrow we might just maybe manager the set of drawers for our bedroom (chorus of hallelujahs please)

mum and dad have said theyre coming over next weekend, i need dads strimmer for the garden and he wont let me put up the 2 mirrors we have. when all of this is up i think it will actually be done. we shall be finished. finally.

except for the little bit of painting left to do for the bedroom and the ensuite... and the fact i want all the bathrooms carpeting cos im sick of almost breaking my neck whenever i want to wash myself... which is at least once a day, sometimes twice...

i also sponsered my boss £5 in her race for life on sunday, only i dont know if she will know its from me cos i only put 'sarah' on and im sure she knows many. hmm. should i mention it or no? will she figure it out? we shall have to see!

ooh i got a PJ Tracy book today! yay! their 5th has FINALLY been released, its only been 2(+) years! i also bought the boft some boring book on the renaissence to do with his doctorate. *yawns* right, im off to bed now after i put my next load of washing in! york on sunday with izzy and georgi! yay!

its all new new new

ok last night, the microwave started making some DODGY noises, when i has 3 baked potatoes to go! the rest of tea was ready, as each potato went on it made more noises, slowed right down and everything was coming out either scorching or undercooked, soooo today when taking an 'oak effect' shelf back to b&q (didnt look owt like our oak dresser or table set) we called into comet, which is next door (well, across the car park, meaning to just grab a cheap microwave and be off...

damn fucking sparkly things. you know im addicted. i am. im sorry. i cant help it.

the cameras looked all sparkly and i wandered over as my cybershot is dying (doesnt always turn on, turns off when you try take a pic, and the flash wont work anymore) and i fell in love with the daddy of the one i have, the granddaddy was too expensive and wouldnt fit in my bag, tho this one was about half my months wage! *cries a little*, the smelly shop assistant gave me 20% off the memory card (best they could do apparently and they shouldnt have done that according to the weirdo)... i wandered over to the microwaves while i pondered the camera (the smelly weirdo assistant followed me- i couldnt shake him off) and omg to say you can 'pick up a cheap microwave now' is true, but the one we got was in my mind, still too much money, but the panasonic ones were the only ones that didnt look like you'd need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that the fuck to do to put it in for a minute. why does a microwave need a button that says 'porridge'??? HOW LAZY ARE PEOPLE? i know i say that and microwaves are really for lazy people. i use ours for instant rice (yes lazy), baked potatoes (i prefer them) and hot blackcurrant and lemonade (you cant make it any other way) i really dont use it for anything else! so spending £100 on one today shook me. tho, wow, i now have a 900! i didnt even know that made them that powerful, i was still in awe that i had an 800, i mean they still make 750's... anyway *yawn* microwaves are boring... and im off to make a hot blackcurrant and lemonade :D
anyway smelly assistant haunted me the entire day and got alot of my money :(


next up to go- i'll put money on mum and dads old tv and vcr- the tv doesnt always turn on anyway, everything else electronic we brought to the house is fairly new!
however, the oven, house alarm, fire alarm, showers, boiler... all could go!

The House

about half moved in now :D

its getting me down a bit, mums trying to clear me out alot quicker than im willing to move it seems, i'll be sad to be leaving here, being able to talk to my dad everyday, my room and howw its all set out, and i'll have to live with a smelly boy...

cooked tea for frances last night and they had a good look in every cupboard and corner and then fran and i set up my sylvanian families in the attic cos we'd moved a massive chunk of my childhood toys up to the attic. :D
