Had my appointment with the psych this morning. I think i have abandonment issues...

I had a good visit with my grandparents, and came back with another new hand knitted scarf! It's a pale creamy colour, and will keep my neck lovely and warm in the wintery cold months ahead. I also discovered that my grandparents, when they were first married, took in a family of evacuees! I had no idea.

After visiting them, i stopped off at Fosse Park, i was pleasantly surprised to find that i could make the journey to Fosse park in around 35 minutes, and although it doesn't have as many shops and Merry Hill, it certainly had a good selection, and is a much easier journey than the trip to Merry Hill. I may end up going there again when Christmas looms (or maybe afterwards, since i had a great deal of trouble finding a car parking space!).

Friday night i nipped into Wallis and tried on a red dress that i have had my eye on. The sort of xmas party dress i have dreamed off. Apart from being about 6 inches too long, it was nice. But not for me. The red did not look good with my pinky/white skin tone and the dress itself emphasised that i have an "ample bosom"(as it were) and a huge stomach. I think that i may end up buying a nice top instead and wearing it with trousers. At least i can wear the top with other things, and end up saving myself about 50 quid!

So what did i buy? Well i bought a new black top from Marks (reduced from 14 pounds to 8 pounds) and a grey top with a star logo (reduced from 16 pounds to 10 pounds).

I also bought a new fleece from Tescos, which i know i will need as the weather gets colder, and my old fleece is now too ratty to look nice.
