What a Weekend...

So today I got a bit over excited, lots of good things have just smashed together and I'm feeling all bubbly and happy. Considering the horrid weekend I have just had, well I had to share my bounciness. :-)


*The awful bit* On Saturday we went to the Royal Armories in Leeds, half way through the visit my mum called to say my Aunt had had a massive brain hemorrhage and well, it wasn't great. My other half drove us all the way to Mansfield to the hospital and we went to say our goodbyes. They didn't brain scan, drip feed... there was no point apparently, it was just that catastrophic.


By this point I'm numb, dreading every text, phone call, waiting for my mum to say she's passed away. But on Monday I received news that my Aunt had woken up, was sat and talking. (We are all stunned...)What they thought to be a massive brain hemorrhage was actually Epilepsy. I know Epilepsy itself is nothing to sing and dance about someone having, but as we were preparing for the worst, it is, for me, an amazing relief.


Today we decided to go and pay a visit to the Armories again, to finish the day out we started on Saturday. I was so paranoid all the way round that something bad was going to happen...


Then we went to Castleford; initially I was in search of a coat as my coat from last year is well... too tight around my boobs. (I have this annoying body habit of gaining weight and it going around my boobs, then no matter how much weight I lose, it never shifts from there. Ever.)


Sounds great, it's not. There will come a point one day where I'm more boob than person, I swear.


Anyway, although I didn't find a coat I did find a lovely dress and a butterfly top (with a collar!), I will post them tomorrow as I can't get any decent lighting at the moment. But I am really excited because I thought I was never ever going to be able to wear a top with a collar as often my boobs make it impossible to wear these lovely little tops with high necklines, collars etc. I'm like a cross between Dolly Parton and Bernadette.


*fist pump* feeling the collar love right now.


I also managed to grab some more Warpaint make-up from Beautyoutlet. The more I see of this stuff, the more I love it. I picked up a pallet that looks suspiciously like the Urban Decay Naked pallet, it also has a suspiciously similar name. But more on those soon, I want to try them out before I tell you all about them. I hope they're as awesome as they look. I've also been on LUSH and bookmarked some lovely things to buy when I get paid next week.


And then my lovely other half (or more like other two thirds as he's a foot taller!) bought us Dominoes pizza, and we ate it by the Foreshore. It was lovely and despite the water near the Humber Bridge being a little dingy it was still really nice. (Feeling very soppy right now).

So I'm going to sit here, play Clash of Clans and sip my tea. Marveling at how life likes to throw you up and down, like a tennis ball.
