My new make-up thanks to my Mum

She always knows what to buy. She always buys me sheets, towels, fancy shampoo/conditioner and this year I found these goodies also tucked in to a cute make-up bag. She proudly showed me what the colour of the nail polish looked like on her toes ("I had to give it a go Katrina".. haha!). I've …

She always knows what to buy. She always buys me sheets, towels, fancy shampoo/conditioner and this year I found these goodies also tucked in to a cute make-up bag. She proudly showed me what the colour of the nail polish looked like on her toes (“I had to give it a go Katrina”.. haha!).

I’ve already ripped in to them and used them all!

Thanks Mum!

 

PS. I bought that new bed finally I was talking about here. We are picking it up after lunch. I’ve gone for a king, so I’ll need to buy all new stuff for it (although thanks to Mum, she already bought me the sheets). I can’t wait to sleep in it. Andrew has mentioned more than once “we have to break it in.” #eyeroll

 

PPS. I’ve been having a few off moments this past week and A-M sent me this yesterday…

Whatever your problem or challenge may be, laugh at it. Laugh long and hard.

Because you are forever and it is temporary.

It was just what I needed.

 

Today I am going to clean out some more clutter while Andrew takes the kids fishing.

Happy Thursday! x

    Haha love that your mum tested out your gift!
    Congrats on the bed – we got a king when we moved to and I love it! Extra room when all the kids decide to jump in! 🙂

    I think my Mum gave me that exact same lipstick. I think she said something along the lines of “Coral will give anyone a lift”. I wish she had given me the matching nail polish as well.

    Most guys would come out with that sort of humour with a new bed…. funny but true! Kings are awesome you will both love it.

    Great pressies from your Mum, you have been spoilt-great nail colour.

    A-M has words of wisdom there; good to re-read every so often.

    Oh what a typical male thing to say lol.
    After you have broken it in – I hope you get a wonderful & blissful night’s sleep.
    Hope A-M’s words helped with the stresses you have had this week.
