Today I’m a moaning mess. I’m in work feeling like total and utter crap, and counting the minutes(115) until I can go home. My heads banging, my throat feels like really hurty sandpaper and my nose won’t stop running. My husbands reply to this this morning was “Suck it Up”, Ever the charmer. I am used to this as we have run our own business for 5 years which has consumed our lives. But today I’m just feeling sorry for myself, and seeing as my hubby won’t indulge me in any sympathy then I’m indulging myself.
On top of that I seem to have two pimples, which I have named pinky and perky,that seem to have taken up permanent residence on my chin. I have (at least) 2 day old hair which decided to protest this morning over not being washed and not do anything that remotely looked styled, also my shirt poppers keep popping open from over indulging one too many times lately…. did I mention I was feeling sorry for myself?!
I’m at the point where no amount of spanx can help. So on the recommendation of Karen at:

I have bought the Ab-tek to see if I can rid this jelly belly that I can no longer blame my son for as it has actually expanded more since he vacated.

Whilst writing this, I was thinking what a moaner I am(see I can’t even indulge myself with sympathy, stupid brain!) so I started thinking of good moments of the day….
My son waved to me for the first time when I was leaving for work this morning and blew kisses. This makes me smile from ear to ear. It never fails to amaze me how wonderful he is and the amount of love you have for your children. His tricks include: Clapping hands, sniffing the flowers(where he screws up his little button nose and vehemently sniffs and blows), dancing, shaking his head for No, air kisses and now we have added waving to his repertoire, lol. I am ever the proud mummy, showing off my son’s tricks, much to my dismay when he doesn’t cooperate and blows a raspberry at me. Its almost like it’s his way of saying “mummy I’m not a performing seal!” lol.
My second happy thought of the day is that Dorothy Perkins are having a sale. I do love a bit of Dotty P’s and got a couple of bargains.

Ok Ok,the lovely cardigan wasn’t on sale, but it will go with soo many things I already have, and with the summer we’re having so far I NEED a cover up for this chilly weather we’re constantly having. ( yes, I am trying to justify it to myself) also the lovely floral dress was a bargain at £12!

I also have my eye, for practical reasons I assure you, on this little beauty!

It comes in beautiful primary blue, yellow or red, and I just adore it. It makes me think of being a kid, and being a major advocate of growing old but not growing up, I heart this coat very much! It makes me want to go jump in puddles and have lots of fun!
Its definitely on my “Must Have” list!
Plus, like previously mentioned (I do moan a lot about the weather!) British weather is as disappointing as ever. So this is my little bit of sunshine. It’s practical and cheerful!

And of course my other ray of constant sunshine is my Neo xXx
