It's Currently again! The delightful and charming Lindsey from Ot and Et is in charge whilst Randalin from Harvesting Kale is enjoying her time out. She's quite literally just had a little baby girl who needs all her attention right now. Co-hosting with Lindsey this week is Colleen from The Mommy Panda.
If you don't know the drill essentially you just use the given themes for the week or create your own and let everyone know what's Currently going on with you!
This week's themes are: Snapping, Stopping, Spending, Starting, Skipping...
Because of the complete and total loss of my camera, misplaced somewhere illogical, I've been happily snapping away on my phone. I like the freedom it gives me, but the picture quality is godawful.
I need lose six pounds in the next week. This means I am stopping myself from consuming all manner of crap. No more cakes and biscuits and sweets and all that gubbins. I'm not entirely sure I can manage that much in that time frame, but there's definitely no chance if I don't cut out the crap. Wish me luck.
I've been secretly spending money on four beautiful dresses that I found in a sale. I know four is quite a lot and pretty self indulgent, but they WERE IN THE SALE! Effectively I saved around £300. So I am good, right? Don't Mr Husband. I am planning on using "What, this old thing?"
I am starting to get organised for Biscuit to go back to school next week after half term. I have washed her PE kit, bought her new t-shirts and sewn name labels inside. I've washed and ironed all her uniform, checked her school shoes, her plimsolls and her wellies all still fit. I'm feeling pretty smug about it all as usually I'm a last minute kind of girl. You can guarantee that I'll still have forgotten something though.....
In a concerted effort to make less of a monument arse of myself on the tellybox I have been trying to swat up on some quiz questions. The only problem I have is that I find myself subconsciously skipping anything I don't know the answer to! I don't even know that I'm doing it. It appears that I am only capable of applying my brain when I already know what the answer should be. I wonder if they'll tailor the real quiz questions for me so that I wont want to skip those....?
Next week: Liking, Thinking, Planting, Blooming, Pinning...
So come on, if you haven't before, why not give it a go! Join in?

Skipping stuff you don't know the answers to has got you this far, which means it must be an excellent tactic that works. Stick with it. Would love to see dress photos (as long as it wouldn't blow your cover).
ReplyDeleteIt's the only sensible route really isn't it?! I shall discreetly add some dress pictures as I go along, just for you my dear xx
DeleteI try not to eat the randomness throughout the day which I manage really well, then comes the evening and it all goes downhill lol. Pointless! Well that's about the only thing I watched on tv as I can't stand old people's antique programs x
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean! They are definitely the dullest thing on telly!
DeleteI am jealous of your spending and agree with Caz, let's see "these old things" so we can live vicariously through your little spree. ps. lemon juice, cayenne, water, maple syrup. it'll give your tummy a run for its money but if you drink that and basically go on a raw diet otherwise you'll easily lose the 6 pounds. Good luck! Just don't be far from a toilet if you do this, it can get a little crazy.
ReplyDeleteHa! I'll bear that one in mind! It does sound a little terrifying though....;) x
DeleteI love how British this post is. You live in England, right? If not, I love how [where ever you live] this post is.
ReplyDeleteHa! Is it? I can't tell! You're spot on of course, I do indeed come from over the pond! :) xx
