Can you see ... there's no sparkle or Christmas cheer on my face :-(.  I'm dealing with the remnants of what feels like it was a 24 hour flu and now have terrible lower back ache which I think is caused from vegitating on the couch for about 8 hours.  Me not a happy smiley camper but I'm at work all the same as its the last few days before I go on leave for a whole three weeks from Friday.

Graeme painted Jarod's bedroom this weekend.  One wall is painted in black chalkboard paint and the others are in grey.  He was super happy when he saw it on Sunday.

The little people have now gone off on holiday with their dad to Nelspruit.  Its just us two ol' souls and the crazy animals at home.

Hope your weekend was super awesome ... although its Tuesday, with yesterday being a holiday it feels like a Monday but the traffic was a dream as many people started their leave this week.

Let me get things done ...enjoy your day and its a week of shopping left to Christmas.

Come on Summer, come on

I adore pretty feminine dresses, however, I often feel that they engulf and overpower me.  Schatz doesn’t particularly like me in fluffy/flared skirts and dresses as he thinks they make women look larger than they are.  Now being a bit of a pear, they’re supposed to do well on my figure, yet, I don’t think they look grand. I just received the images below in my morning fix from All 4 women and although there were a few ‘flared’ pear-shaped appropriate dresses, these spoke louder to my winter weary soul.
