"Forget you"

I am back to typing in (and thinking in) full sentences. I didn't forget you! Here are a few things that I wanted to post before and whilst being ill.





1. We had our flat warming, the night before I got really sick. The theme was 'Mad Scientists Laboratory'. We
had an awesome time, and loved that our friends made the effort to dress
up. We filled jars and beakers with coloured water and actual sheep parts. In one of these pictures you can see a sheep tongue.

2. I finally got my hands on a copy of Brooke Fraser's Flags. So far only a few of the songs have really grown on me. I'm still in love with There's something in the water. Have any of you heard any of the other tracks? What did you think?

 

3. Over the weekend I went to the hair salon. I was so looking forward to it, especially as when I had tonsillitis I could hardly move my neck to wash my hair properly. I love the hair salon. Love. I went there feeling invincible as it felt so good to be out of the house. Maybe that's why I got bangs? A Gaga-esque fringe in fact. Am still adjusting to it. What do you think?

4. Bex and Andy had their engagement party. Even though I was still sick, I had an awesome time. Except I had really bad sweat/chills. Which explains my fringe in this family photo. Note the new dress? Not a good photo of the dress but I am planning on wearing it out again this Saturday night.

5. My Mum's cousin Helen is out from the U.K. It's so awesome to meet her. I found it so strange how comfortable I feel around her, even though we've only spent ten minutes in the same room. This Saturday night we are going out for Dinner at Sweet Mother's Kitchen. I am very excited about it.



6. I was gutted when I finally tracked down a song online that I'd heard on the radio. I thought the lyrics were "If I get you". Turns out the clean version actually says "Forget you" and the not-so-clean version uses another F-word. It's now stuck in my head. Song Fail.



7. My gorgeous friend Dyani, gifted me a framed portrait of yours truly. She took inspiration from my profile photo. So lucky!

8. Oh, by the way...my Mum beat Breast Cancer's butt! After less than a year, some tough surgeries and treatment she has been told that her Breast Cancer is gone. What amazing news. Words can not describe how happy I am. Congratulations Marja!

Also, did you donate and receive a pink ribbon last week? Or have you
recently purchased a product that supports a Breast Cancer charity? If
so, look out for a post in the next few days that can see that
generosity of yours win you some goodies!
