I love shopping. Or rather, I love buying pretty things and the way it makes me feel. I'm not talking about spending lots and lots of money, it could be a £1 purchase, but if it satisfies my eyeballs it gives me a very good feeling inside.
Today I bought the above 'wrist-wear' from a TKMaxx adventure. The watch caught my eye to begin with as I really love marble at the moment. But then I saw the bangle with the quote 'Be Here Now' and I knew I had to have the set. The whole set was only £19.99 - a complete bargain I feel! I also purchased a new notebook, I'm not sure why but I love notebooks! There are some lovely designs out at the moment, I'm going to need a lorry to take home all the stuff I've bought during the summer break.
'The Dead Ex' by Jane Corry is my current reading material. I'm really enjoying it at the moment, although it's quite a disturbing story! There are two stories currently being told: Vicki's and Scarlet's. Vicki (whose story is set in 2018) is a woman who suffers from epilepsy and the police believe she has something to do with her husband's disappearance. Scarlet (whose story is set in 2007) is a young girl who has been put into foster care as her mum has been arrested. I'm trying to work out how these two stories are going to link together, but I can't guess at the moment. I like that, the last few books I've read with 'twists' have been disappointing and easy to guess. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this continues the way it has started!
I think being an October baby has really influenced my preference in seasons. Autumn is in the air and I am very excited! I love everything about Autumn - leaves falling, a chill in the morning air, wearing scarves and boots and snuggling under a thick blanket when it's raining outside. The cold weather is also much better for my health and it means I don't have to worry about being exhausted because it is too hot for me to cope. Roll on Autumn 2018 - it's going to be a wonderful one!
One final thought...
