A haircut!  Did it on a whim last night....got about 5" chopped off so my hair's just above my shoulders now.  With high temps 'dipping' to 102 by the weekend, I was just ROASTING under all this hair!!! 

Wow!! Any pics to share?!?

Not yet....stay tuned.... :)
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

Thinking that the inside of my linen cupboards could use a face lift and painting them ultra-white. They look 10 times bigger and more inviting. All that for about an hours worth of work! :)

Been looking for AAAAAAAAAGES for a white summer top that will go with loads of skirt & trousers - something casual and smart, sexy but not tarty - finally found the PERFECT top in Gap in the sale for a tenner!!

Found GORGEOUS Vera Wang crystal champagne glasses at Marshall's for $9.99 apiece!!!!!!!!  Perfect for the wedding I'm going to this weekend.  And since I saved so much on the gift, I bought a new outfit to wear to the wedding!   ;D

It's the same company as TJ Maxx (TK Maxx in England).  The sell close out stuff from 'spensive stores - all designer names and stuff.

Oh yes, TK Maxx is fabulous! But there was a Marshalls near where I used to live in the US I was particularly fond of, and I miss it!

Oh!!!  I didn't see the little crying smiley, he didn't show up at first, so I thought you were asking what is Marshall's!  :)

Yes - they are wonderful and amazing stores, I bought THE SEXIEST pair of black trousers I have ever tried on, and this gorgeous sheer black blouse (but not revealing sheer) with beads down the front over where the buttons would be (it snaps up the front, but the snaps are hidden), and on the cuffs.  Both items for a little over $50!!

TK Maxx rocks!  I've bought several pairs of name-brand trainers from there, for cheap cheap cheap!
