The week that was....

Just a super quick post this week. After spending all of this week ill I'm just about feeling normal again, today has been the first day in over a week where I haven't broken out in a rash :-) Finally I'm on the mend!

I also got Decembers Beauty Box from Feel Unique (if you haven't got yours yet, look away!)

Hope you've all had a good week!

Ok so maybe alot of this is for me but I did get a few other bits too but as my mum reads my blog it'll spoil the surprise! Have you almost done your christmas shopping? I think I've finished mine now, hopefully!

The week that was....

This last week has been a weird one. I had monday booked off as annual leave and then felt like rubbish for the rest of the week, by thursday came I decided to only work half the day so I took the rest of the day and used some more annual leave! I have an awful cold and felt rotten by thursday.

Friday I had a job interview at the other hospital in Nottingham, its doing the same job as I do now just in a different department. I'll hear whether I got it or not on monday now. I have no idea what the outcome will be, I didn't answer the questions very well but I'm hoping my experience will have a strong influence.

I also finally got a stereo fitted in my car. It's been a long week without one. And it didn't enough work doing to it as originally thought and thankfully it didn't take as long as I was told because it was freezing wandering round town!

I also got my new uniform for work. It's horrible. The trousers are alright but my shirt looks baggy and out of shape. I needed a bigger size for it to fit round my boobs but then it's just baggy at the bottom and makes me look fat. Great.

Oh and as well as having a cold I broke out in a bad rash after having an allergic reaction to something and it's only just starting to go down. This has meant I've had 2 days off work and I have tomorrow off too. Urgh basically I'm having a rubbish time at the moment.

One last thing, hopefully our christmas tree will be up next weekend :-) this means that I can wrap my presents and get them shifted out of my bedroom, my room is a tip because there are presents everywhere!

Have a Lush christmas!

Lush isn't a shop I normally go in because I think it's a little pricy and you can guarantee as soon as your foot steps over the door a sales assistant will pounce on you but I decided to brave it to get my hands on the infamous Snow Fairy shower gel.

I have to admit I was in there for about 5 minutes browsing and not once did I get asked if I needed help. It was great! I even had chance to decide on buying a melting snowman bath melt and a tub of Sweetie Pie shower jelly which smells like blackcurrant fruity sweets! Delicious!

After this successful attempt of shopping in Lush I would quite happily go back. In fact I want another bottle Snow Fairy to use after the festive season.

Melting snowman bath melt - £1.99

Sweetie Pie shower jelly - from £2.99

Snow Fairy shower gel - from £3.25
