If any of you know any people in Christchurch area that can help me out by introducing me to them to show my linen i would be eternally grateful.

night all rest for another week of full days and adventures

please put the word out on ya blogg for all to know about this

fantastic day

I have had an awesome afternoon-went over to Westfield mall for a fashion show
Great - Long wait becasue i wanted to be 1 of the 100 first there to get a gift bag of goodies and good prize it was too..lots of beauty products and perfume samples along with vouchers for stores promoted in the show(of interest to me is of course 20% of at u guessed it TS14 heheh not that I'll be buying anything there for a while have a layby to pay off from my last visit.EDIT well that didnt last long-was lying in bed thinking about my day and thought ah i could use that 20% voucher for the white body t I need so next week I'll grab one of them 20% is better in my pocket and it is an essential item not a luxury.

Some really neat out fits I like the 'Touch of Blush' look for the spring summer but that being said I did spied a GORGEOUS out fit that I am going to put on layby and it is very bright and out ther try and post a photo(not the best of photos but ya get an idea of the colours the blue is a indigo chiffon crinkle then bright flower under dress and tangarine over jacket also in that crushed look ($600) not so bad if ya say it fast..have a wedding to go to in Dec and it would be PERFECT.





I WON A SPOT PRIZE OF $50 vouchers so bought a nice belt from K&K, COMPLETELY out of my comfort zone not sure I have EVER worn a belt certainly not funky one like this. I also put my name down for the capri's and t in the pic with the belt they dont arrive in until next month, to complete the outfit and they had 20% off for the night so I bought a nice black and red tunic with $90 from a sale of jewellery I had early in the day.





Only thing is it sort of doesnt fit in with the 'I AM NOT BUYING ANYMORE CLOTHES' mantra I am suppose to be living by heheh
Tomrrow I am back to Westfield again for the second part of the workshop 'Fashions to look Fabulous over 50' now that will be interesting and that is when I will make the final dession on the wedding number, I might find something I like even better. i also want to know how to dress casual and still look great, guess that will come woth ever decreasing body.

I am whacked 3 good aftershocks last night so another broken sleep so my bed is calling me

Night all
EDIT well so much for sleep 5 aftershocks in an hour and I am back up again..had a drink was peecish so had cruskit and cottage cheese...guess i should try sleep again huh

lazy sunday afternoon

hey all just thought I'd pop in and say howdy.
i havent done much today pottered really listed afew things on trade me added more to my watch list done some house work had a nice wee visit from Miss Brooke earlier that was nice to hear her giggle. They have had to move out of there shack because of damage caused by the earthquake so Miss Brooke is feeling fragile and disoriented.

My man is out mowing the lawn it is threatening rain so home he gets it finished before the weather breaks. nice to see the freshly mowed lawns. he goes tomorrow for final interveiw for a new job he is so over working with people he is a bus driver and all this hassles with the earth quake has beeen the last straw for him...sum just cant understnad the city centre is closed no they cant be taken thru to see the damaged caused-not even just this once. Some folks are thick.

i have a stupid chest infection that has been giving me hell again since thursday hope the antibiotic and prendizone kick in soon so over being sick this has been my wrst year ever for chest infections and broncitis.

I go to see the surgeon on tuesday for my 3mth check up i am happy with how things are progressing for the most part so hope he is. Disapointed that I am on steriods again that will hinder my weight loss but had to be done.

off to make my man a coffee think he deserves it after doing such a spendid job of the lawns heheh

Think it is Wednesday

Still rocking and rolling here in Chch

Broken sleeps are taking there toll
Went for a drive to Riccarton and Merivale yesterday it is really bad around there LOTS of business will not reopen. Alan got caught on lytleton side of port this mornign cause we had anoter big shake and it was centred near lyttleton so they had to close the tunnel for a couple hours till it was checked for any damage

shake rattle and roll

woke at 4.3oish this morning to the worst earth quake I have ever felt and lots of after shocks still worse than some felt too not the plans I had for today I can tell you. A lot of damage around but personally all I have damage wise is my meat platter has a chip from a bottle falling out of cupboard VEERY luck. need sleep though so might go for a nana nap think it is acceptable when thrown out of bed at that hour.
