Jingle Bells!

Hey hey hey :) I'm so excited it's getting so close to Christmas :-D 


Not last weekend but the weekend before, I went to Glasgow from Friday til Sunday.  Friday was a quiet day at work, so I travelled in the morning from Edinburgh to our Glasgow office, and worked there for the day.  I took a loooooooong lunch, during which I met my friend for a munch and then left her and went shopping!  I have an obsession with nail polish, and as I had bare nails that day and didn't bring any through with me to Glasgow, felt that I Had to buy some.  Have you seen the new Accessorize make up?  Well I'm not sure about the rest of it but the nail polishes are lovely.  I bought 4 of them, and also a Barry M - Dusky Mauve and bottom/top coat.  I bought Accessorize Molten Copper-

Mermaid

Pink Spice

and.... Idol

I am absolutely loving them.  I'm loving Barry M's Dusky Mauve too but I'm sure you've already seen that.


I was going out on Friday night but unfortunately I had to stay in the office til 5pm.  The good thing about that though, was that mostly everyone left around 4pm, leaving me to sneakily paint my nails in the office while it was quiet! ;) I went out with my friends that night and had a great time.


On the Saturday, I started my Christmas shopping.  I got my mum & dad's from Molton Brown, and got bf's from Hugo Boss.  I then met my friends again for a couple of drinks but headed home after a couple with my heavy bags.  That night I started to feel ill, and by the time Sunday came round I was dying with the worst cold ever!  My Nana came to collect me and we went to my Aunt's birthday tea.  I was due to go n see Frankie Boyle with my friend that night but I gave it a miss as I felt so ill.  I got the train back to Edinburgh and my lovely friend Steven came and picked me up at the station and dropped me off at my flat :)


I was off work til Thursday and ended up going to the doctor where I was told the cold had brought my asthma back and so I now have an inhaler for the next wee while!


Me & bf took a half day on Friday there and went to Glasgow.  The weather was bad but we got through fine.  We had dinner at his parent's house and stayed over.  On Saturday I got my hair done, then me & bf went to the cinema & for dinner.  Stayed over at his parent's again on Saturday night then went home to Edinburgh on Sunday.  Lucky we left early coz after that the weather went mental!


And so now I am in the middle of another boring week at work!  It has been quiet due to the weather, which means I've had the chance to get right in to my Christmas shopping :) still got quite a bit to go though.  Can't wait to get it finished :) xx


PS.  I think I may have repeated myself in this post and the one before that, but hey! :) x

Let it snow!

Oh it's so beautiful outside, it won't stop snowing :) it's getting heavier & heavier as I type, I love it :)


Last week was a bit of a nightmare.  On Wednesday I had to be in the office for 07:30am...... uuuuuuuggggghhh!  I made it though!  Then I was in for a long, tough day at work.  Went to sleep about 11:30pm, and was woken at 12:30am but the people downstairs having a party :( then I was up til 5am because of them!  They didn't quieten down til we got the police out.  They are generally noisy & annoying but this was just taking the piss.  Bf went down to see them the next day and they said they were sorry, didn't realise they were so loud, blah blah blah.  I was away most of the weekend but last night one of them came to the door to say that they had people over (10 people) and that they were meant to leave yesterday morning, but because of the snow their flight back to Poland was cancelled and so they are here for another week.  I don't believe there ever was a flight they were meant to catch and I suspect that they all here looking for work.  I don't know about in other parts of the country, but in Edinburgh, when you have Polish people in a flat, there always seems to be about 10-12 of them in 1 or 2 bedroomed flats.  Well I hope they all get jobs and move out or go back to Poland soon coz they are doing my nut in.


So anyway I was in a terrible mood all of Thursday because of lack of sleep, and another tough day at work.


Friday was great.  I worked in Glasgow, I started late, met my friend for lunch, bought new nail varnish... managed to paint my nails in work when it got quiet, shhhhhhh!  After work I met my friends in the pub and had a nice night :) stayed in Glasgow all weekend.  On Saturday I had a lie in then spent some time with my mum & dad.  My mum has an amazing jewellery collection and managed to get her to part with some of for me ;) then I went Christmas shopping (Hugo Boss for bf and Molton Brown for mum & dad), and met my friends in the pub.  Only stayed out for 2 or 3 drinks.  They were having an all-dayer and I just wasn't in the mood.  Went home, had a nice bath and watched X Factor.  Yesterday I stayed in bed most of the day then went to my aunt Ann's for her birthday tea.


The only bad thing about the weekend was that I developed the cold from hell :( it started on Saturday night, and it was the reason I stayed in bed most of Sunday.  I was meant to be going to see Frankie Boyle last night in Glasgow with my friend, then getting the last train back to Edinburgh, but I felt too ill and so I cancelled.  I got the train back to Edinburgh and my lovely friend Steven came and picked me up at Waverley and dropped me off at my flat :) I am a 15/20 min walk from the station, but it was too dodgy to walk it and the taxi queue was massive, and also I was dying with the cold by that point so he was a total life saver.


Me & bf were meant to be going to the cinema & stuff today but I just don't feel up to it :( I feel bad coz bf was really looking forward to it :( I was too though.  We are meant to be off today but he has had to nip in to work for a while and I have asked him to come back with medicine & hankies for my cold!


Hope you are all enjoying the snow! :) xx
