♥ Wrap up warm ♥

Yep, I know I keep moaning about the cold.. but it truly is freezing! Not helped by the fact that I went to bed super late last night, only to have to get out of bed to the doorbell for an appointment I didn't even know was today. I didn't even have a chance to put my face on and had to sit through an appointment with an ugly face, clothes I just picked up randomly off the side to chuck on and sitting there not really concentrating.. just thinking I'd rather be in bed instead of having someone talk at me while I sat there looking disgusting. Ugh! Great start to the day.

On top of that.. a parcel was "delivered" apparently they tried to ring my doorbell and knock even while I was standing in the hallway.. and they just put a slip through saying that they'd left it with a neighbour. They didn't even bother knocking or ringing the doorbell cos I would have heard it.. so now I have to deal with a disgruntled other half who is too stubborn to go round and pick it up, since he doesn't know that particular neighbour.. and since it wasn't his fault he doesn't see why he should get it. I told him that it's in his name and if he doesn't get it.. he's likely losing money for whatever he bought. Knowing my luck it's probably one of my Christmas presents and his reaction to it was just "Meh, whatever, I'm not getting it. I don't care if I'm losing money, it wasn't my fault!" Men!!

Now I've got my real life ranting and raving out the way.. onto Second Life.. which is much more chillax and fun. Last night I spent a little time on my grownup avi, which I don't really do.. but no parents were on last night and I was bored so I decided I'd see what the grownup side of SL had to offer for a change. I ended up just going to The Arcade, getting some of the grownup clothing bits there.. dressing my avi up and then wandering around sims looking for someone to talk to. Did I find anyone? Nope! Where do grownups go to hang out besides icky places? It baffles me how grownups manage.. I seem to only ever meet noobs, weirdos or people that want icky things. So.. I went back onto my usual child avi and chatted to my kid friends for a bit, while I made this pic.

Sorry for any mistakes in this post, I usually proof read it.. but I can't be dealing with reading back the bad start to the day I've had! Oh great, now as I type this my cat is about to eat the Christmas tree..

♥ Let it snow.. ♥

Feeling a bit down today because my throat is absolutely killing me.. blah.. and it's still freezing cold here. I feel like my Eeyore quote on my picture today pretty much sounds like how I'm feeling right now. But we've gotta look on the bright side, there's been no earthquakes. I've actually felt two earthquakes in my life time.. but thankfully they weren't anything major. I was in bed for one and heard it more than felt it.. weird. The UK doesn't really get them on the scale that most other places do, touch wood. 

Put the Christmas tree up finally yesterday, so at least my home looks a little bit Christmassy. I hate constructing the tree (yes, we used an artificial this year) and I'm too short to ensure the lights look good the whole way up.. but I enjoy decorating it with baubles! We used to put tinsel on it too, but have since decided it looks tacky.. plus my cat likes to eat it and we end up removing very festive looking poo from his litter box since it has tinsel poking out in all directions. He's obsessed with the tree and we're already getting exhausted from telling him off whenever he goes near it. He just wants to eat the branches for some reason! When he was a kitten he would knock the baubles off the lower branches, but now he's so big he can stand up on his back legs and have the whole thing over if he's not careful. Being part Norwegian Forest and part naughty fat kitty he's a nightmare to control when it comes to the tree! 

We've almost done our Christmas shopping, minus about 4 presents.. and of course all the Christmas food. I think everyone goes mental when it comes to Christmas food.. don't even get me started! 

Anyways, on to this outfit. It's from Ello Poppet and is so cute. I love the collar on it and the fluffy boots. I love these nails from Tiddleywinks too, I wish you could see them up close.. but they're so awesome and Christmassy. The umbrella is awesome too, it's from Cute Bytes found at the Woodland Treasure Gatcha event. It has snow that falls on it and coats the top of the umbrella over time, a teleport effect and it can be opened and closed. There are lots of colours to collect! This one just happened to go with my outfit.
