61 days to go: Grey Clouds And Silver Linings


It has been a funny old week.
I can't really go into details as it doesn't affect me but someone very close.
Work has been challenging but it looks like my contract will now be renewed for another year.
Best of all - my friend told me today she is getting married.
And she wants me to help choose her dress.
Yes, shopping for clothes is perfect pick-me-up medicine even if it isn't shopping for my clothes.
Amidst the grey clouds there is a peek of blue skies and silver livings.
And my outfit echoes the theme with shades of grey, silver and blue.
I worked like mad this morning to get lots of little things done and I have finally crossed the last job off my list.
I will soon be leaving to go to Liverpool for my counselling course.
I have met some great people on the course where we have gathered to refine our counselling skills - and boy have I needed them this week.
But the nicest thing about Thursday is my husband has to cook for our children and get them ready for bed.
I walk through the door about 10.30pm and apart from my eldest everyone is fast asleep including my exhausted husband!

Today I wore...
Boots - Dorothy Perkins
Skirt - Marks and Spencer
T-shirt - my daughter's (from Matalan)
Necklace - Matalan
Belt - Tesco

This is really cute! I like the t-shirt. I'm not a fan of graphic tees but I wish I were so I can dress like this. I guess I am too boring.
