Outfit details:
Dress: Country Road (op shop). Stockings: Target. Boots: Sandler. Scarf: Alta Linea. Earrings: made by me. Top: Reserve; and Jacket (not pictured): Sportsgirl (both from Jeannie).
Yesterday, I had lunch with Jeannie and then raided 2 suitcases of her old clothes. I came home with a small suitcase of clothes (a whole new wardrobe, shoes and accessories included). I was raiding her old clothes because she is about to move interstate. Sad Face. I will be visiting her soon, but we won't be just catching up on a weekend or playing gigs together. :(
Today, given its sad face status, required some blues. Blue earrings I actually made for Advent one year.
And blue and black and grey colour block stockings. When I took the first boots photo I noticed a wrinkle around my knees. I pulled up the stockings and discovered a whole lot more blue could show.
Other sad facts from today: my first student (this is my first day back after being off sick) sneezed on me. (With splatter. Ew). I sat around a lot today because it seems to be crazy activity week at school as well as "Let's be unwell" week. I worked out I will be doing catch up lessons for the rest of the term. (Goodbye lunch breaks). I didn't get my post-breakfast, or post-coffee, or post-lunch naps.
A few happy faces: My first cardio session for a few weeks and I didn't die. (I didn't go nuts like normal but it wasn't too easy-going). The kids I did manage to teach were quite lovely. I saw one of the violin teachers who teaches on different days from me. Tomorrow is a public holiday in Brisbane - I'm anticipating a lovely sleep or three and, fingers crossed, my first run for some weeks. I can't wait!
Today's photo:
I have 2 aromatic pink pillar candles, and I found blue-pattern plates at an op shop for them. Last time I was burning this one all the wax dribbled down the side and pooled around the base.
