And I have another retreat coming up as soon as we get home from convention #1 and a break in the Netherlands.
So first all of what has the post yielded this week - well there was this - can a girl ever have too many scarves??? The answer to that question is a big fat NO!!!!!!! There is no such thing as too many scarves and to prove it I now have a pink scarf with flamingos on - it will match the new hair!!
I resolved end of last year to only buy one stamp set from each new Penny Black release this year - I broke that resolution this week!!!! The new release was divine and I narrowed it down to two sets and three cling stamps in the end - ooooops but they are all so lovely and I know I will use them lots and lots!!
And it is also the time of the month when we get our monthly Birchbox - a lovely selection this month, I think I will use everything in the box this time.
And on to today, I have mainly been blonde since I was 16, apart from the odd flirtation with auburn and some red streaks over 7 years ago, I have pretty well stuck with the same blonde highlights. So this month I fancied a change and thought that convention time was as good a time as any to have a complete change and I fancied pink - I didn't want fluorescent pink or candy floss pink but something that would last more than one wash - so this is how it turned out -
It will fade down to a much softer pink after a couple of washes and I think I like it, I do a double take in the mirror at the moment LOL - and tonight under artificial lights it looks more red than pink, in fact Mr P even called me Ging-er earlier - he likes to live dangerously LOL!!!!!
The rest of today has involved deciding what Marillion t shirts to pack for the convention - I only have a couple to choose from!!!! (There are about 10 t shirts missing from this photo) - I will get it down to about 8 eventually!!
I also need to finish these as gifts for so many of our friends - the now traditional convention chocolate sets -
But I did finish some special gifts for some of my friends that I am sharing a cottage with -
But I must dash now - my packing is calling me, I need to have most of my stuff and all the foodstuff packed by tomorrow evening and my to do list is growing by the minute. If you get a moment go and say hello to Sian over at From High in the Sky and if you have time please join in with us Mondayers.
