Muddling

It’s been a funny week, in a non-funny way. Being back at work is doing me good but it all feels very surreal still. Staff sickness means I’ve done bloods every day, including today…yesterday I had my first fainter which was certainly an experience! This outfit is typical of what I’ve really been craving clothes wise; TK MAXX jumper, Next jeans, Jeffrey Campbell boots c/o Sarenza. My motivation to think about and put together outfits feels somewhat limited, partly due to the weather I think (always blame the weather)

Even though I wanted to ignore it completely, I still had some presents for my Birthday. A highlight and one I can’t wait to experiment with was a bag of Lakeland baking goodies from my Grandparents (I can’t bring myself to not say that) which included a much admired cake pop maker. Watch this space!
Other highlights included a gorgeous vase from my Brother and his girlfriend and a Pandora gift card from Best Friend (of which more will be said soon).

Mae has had a pretty good week, spoiled by having her original owners home (which was lovely despite the circumstances) she was in her element being cute, and Tuesday saw her first adventures in to the big wide world of the back garden; she’d never been outside before and it was so cute/funny to see her bunny hop, sniff and explore this new world. As soon as the weather allows we’ll be cat flap training her and getting her some more freedom; we also need to get her micro-chipped due to her refusal to wear a collar (we’ve decided her neck is too stumpy).

Well, my work uniform beckons and I’d best get moving…the long weekend is looming, and I for one am quite looking forward to catching up on some much needed sleep and spending time with my family.

What are your plans? If the weather gets better I might venture to the frankly dire attempt at a May Fair at the park opposite me. It hasn’t changed in the 25 years I’ve been alive, and that really is not a good thing!

  1. Love that jumper.

    I didn’t realise that cake pop makers existed, but now I’m desperate for one!

    Have a good weekend.

  2. Almost the weekend and a long one at that. My outfit when I get home as been very similar to yours too. Comfort has won hands down.

    Cake pops fascinate me and I can’t wait to see how yours turn out.

  3. It is definitely jeans and jumper day today. I didn’t even think about wearing anything else.

    My last fainter was 20 stone and fell towards me onto the floor. Nightmare.
