Good evening, my loves
Very late check in from me tonight. I ended up having a nana nap earlier because I am wrecked lately and have no idea why. I’m off for blood tests on Friday, so if there is anything going on, hopefully it will show up there and I can start getting to the bottom of it.
Today was one of those “busy but not as productive as I’d hoped” days. I had a big run of packing and posting first thing, got all your parcels away, and then headed out for my nail appointment. I decided to be brave and go for red. It is very bright. It is very not me. I usually stick to black or burgundy, so every time I look at my hands I feel like Angie Watts from old school EastEnders. I am stuck with them for three weeks now so I am trying not to look directly at them in the wild.
I am also one of those people who absolutely loathes getting their nails done. I do not know if it is a sensory thing but I cannot bear the whole process. The filing, the tapping, the faffing. Hate it. Still, they were grown out to bits and badly needed doing, so they are at least neat again, even if I feel like I have someone else’s hands.
All of today’s post went out, so if you paid over the weekend your treasures are officially on the way to you. Tomorrow I am all yours. I will be here with lots of newbies and unusual bits and bobs that I have been working with over the past couple of weeks. I am really looking forward to finally getting them up on the page and into your hands.
There is no school this week, which honestly feels like someone handed me the best gift ever. No school runs, no “get up, get up now, get up, get up, get up” on repeat every morning. Just a tiny bit less chaos at 8 a.m. and I’ll take it.
I also just had a Tayto sandwich for my dinner so I really do need to start eating better and then I might stop wondering why I am tired all the time. Cop yourself on, Lynda. I have been saying that for years.
Anyway, that is more than enough waffling from me for one Monday. I will be back with you in the morning, bright red nails and all.
Wishing you a peaceful evening ahead. Sleep well and dream long.
LOve
