Well, of course I still have a lot of work to do at home for school - things you haven't got the time for during a busy school week - but it is awesome to be able to plan your time on your own during vacations

Just made a tiny mac purchase. Needed more studio fix powder (my first compact lasted FOREVER, I was very impressed) and then treated myself to an eyeshadow. I got "Motif," I have a sudden interest in neutral looks.

Hope you plan your time well! Have fun!

Good that you have a good rest! And I'm happy to hear your house is nice and clean, the way you like it!

I had a good sleep last night too. On Saturday, I had a fruitful shopping trip after work and a good dinner.

Today, I just watched tv and tidy up parts of my room, and the day is gone! The thought of another week starting again is killing me.

yeah i find that weekends do go by far too quickly! esp when you have to work one of the days!!

next week i shall be away from home for 3 days at the sony conference. so i shall be very tired from the long days but hopefully i will see lots of cool stuff and also get some nice gifts! you always get given blu ray movies, cd's and stuff. and some people even won ps3's and other items!

My weekend's a quiet one. Hubby's in the US again and I have no special plans and am to lazy to go out... I did some cleaning yesterday and my craft room is neat and clean again! I'm supposed to study for my exam in December but am really lazy!

That sounds like fun although it is tiring. I hope you get the fun games and gadgets!

[kittykit]

Have a great Monday, ladies!

 

[PeachTwist]

It's official, ladies.

Moving house is the worst thing ever. I've been moving all weekend.. non frigging stop. Sunday was the worst for sure though. Started moving everything over at 10am and was still going at 10pm - and to think, we've left and thrown out SO much stufff... but the van guy we hired was a nightmare.

He kept parking on the sidewalk - yes, the actual side walk outside peoples houses. Then, one trip.. he knocked some guys wall outside his house. Yep, he goes, "Did I hit something?" my StepDad was like "yeah you hit that wall, you might wanna back up." What did he do? Went forward!

The dude is insane, seriously. Then on top of it the old neighbour came out shouting and screaming (even though it wasn't his wall who was hit) so that was awful.

Anyway. Finally got into bed with a cup of tea at 1:30am. Fell asleep I'd say around 2:30 because I'd just needed some time to myself for the first time all weekend so I was online for a bit. Not happy though. The house is like a damn war zone. It's awful. Looks like it's either been bombed or Hurricane Katrina came through here. It's going to take weeks to get this place sorted. By the time it's done, it'll be Christmas time. Ugggggh. It really makes me dread Christmas coming, which is a shame as I love it.

I woke up this morning at 10, so had a decent 8hrs but feel like I could hibernate until next year sometime. Went downstairs to make a cup of tea.. frick. I can barely walk. My Mom, Step Dad and I all took our socks/shoes off last night and noticed our ankles were swollen. The rest of me hurts, but nothing compared to my feet/ankles. This is a nightmare.

Anyway, I have training at LUSH tonight at 6pm 'til god knows when, I'm gonna have to call to find out and get reminded as to what I need to bring because during the move I completely forgot. I know I need to bring my passport, my bank details and I could have sworn there was something else. Blah.

Anyway, sorry for the long post, just thought I'd update. I won't even go in to how annoying my tv/broadband company is, lol.

I hope you're all well girls!

 

[LMD84]

i'm so sorry about all the moving hasstle Peach

from what you also said on twitter it seems like things are very crazy indeed!

 

[LittleMaryJane]

Sorry about your moving experience. Moving is the WORST.

 

[Miss QQ]

It is a very warm day today. The past few days have been very warm. I wanted to have a subway sandwich today but I resisted. The sandwich of the day (at a cheaper price) was chicken breast but I want to try meatball (Wednesday) or turkey breast (Thursday). Probably I'll wait for another week to get a subway lunch.

 

[LMD84]

^ that is funny! today it was chicken that was the cheap sub too. but it wasn't plain chicken.. it was chicken teriacki? (i can't spell it!!!) and i really don't like that.

 

[LittleMaryJane]

I can't get into Subway. I've just never had a sandwich there that I really enjoyed there

The meatball one DOES look like it could be pretty good--I've never had one.

 

[PeachTwist]

Thanks ladies.

I've just needed to rant. By the end of yesterday I was cursing at everything and everyone in sight. Had to apologise today because yesterday was just horrible for all of us, unfortunately when I've had such a bad time and I'm tired I let my anger get the better of me rather than control it. I'd have a blog to rant to.. but it doesn't work - tried it. lol

Soo I had my first training at LUSH tonight. Was good. I asked a lot of questions - made sure I understood things and what not. Turns out one of the girls lives 4 doors away from me now, haha.

My first shift doesn't appear to be until Oct 28th and 2 training nights a week until then and one in Glasgow for a day. I think I'll enjoy this job - I hope so. Just a bummer it's come right after moving day. Could have really used some time to prepare and unpack and what not. I'm absolutely exhausted and have a headache etc. This next week I think is gonna be a really tough one. Gonna need a really stiff drink by the end of it. Haven't unpacked anything.

Need to buy more clothes too. I gave over half of my wardrobe to charity before I moved because I didn't wear a lot of it - but now I have a job I need to stock up on black and white shirts. Lots of them. lol I hate spending money on anything other than makeup.

I'm so sorry I keep ranting. I promise when things go back to normal in my life I'll stop! Lol. I hope you're all well!

 

[LMD84]

^ it's ok! you need to vent somewhere! and i think it's good that lush give you so much training

i'm sure you'll be great at the job.

today is my last day at work before the managers conference. have lots to do. yesterday i was quite naughty too because not only did i buy a scarf. but i bought two tops and some new jeans! however one of the tops is for the managers conference so i did need to get that! and like peach i sometimes wish i could spend all my spare cash on make up rather than clothing and other boring stuff like bills! which reminds me i need to pay my mobile bill! another £35 gone!!!

things will get better, cant you stock up on some cheap primark shirts for work until you get paid, or tescos and asda do some good quality work wear, for next to nothing, i get all my work trousers at asda cos they're just standard black trousers and only cost about £4

 

[Miss QQ]

Peachtwist, congrats on the Lush job and I agree, things will get better!

Teriyaki is a japanese version of bbq sweet and salty sauce. I'm ok to the sauce but I only had the chicken teriyaki at subway once. The sandwich goes much better with other meats and sauces IMO.

Today I didn't have lunch until 2pm and I was so hungry. And because of that my gastric reflux is affecting me again.

Not a major problem but I really dislike it as I have to take medicine for the next few days and it will take a week or two before the discomfort is gone.
