and now i'm making a change, i'm living the day..

thanks everyone who cheered me up on my last post with some lovely comments, i am feeling a lot more cheerful than i was for a number of reasons:

001 - the weather! i love a bit of sun, and managed to have the roof down on my car at lunch without it being freezing, which was great !!

002 - a lovely weekend; i managed to get a little bit of the wardrobe room started (one step at a time), and spent a lovely day out yday complete with pub lunch, sunday papers and a road trip, which is always good..

003 - still got the love for my babyliss straightening hairdryer, which never ceases to amaze me when it can turn this into this...

004 - new purchases, for another post...

005 - most excitingly, this amazing parcel, which arrived on saturday morning from the lovely nicci.. (i did take a picture of the prettily decorated box, and then wondered if it was a very good idea to post my home address to the world, so left that off..) but it was my prize from her recent blog giveaway!

containing a lovely little note, a gorgeous necklace which i coveted in accessorize last year, and a pretty floral scarf..somce chocolatess, cake cases, nail polish and bath bombs, and a copy of pride and prejudice, and most excitingly some dinosaur cookie cutters - in the words of lovely laura, i very much need to 'get my bake on' this week - i promise to blog the results..

thank you very much to nicci ;)
