Week #43

Welcome to Week 43.

Let's get on with the show.

Week 43 - Part 1

The start of the week was quite quiet, had the regular tuesday meeting, and was scanning all day Wednesday.

The last part of the week was busier I started earlier on Thursday as we had time out so it allowed for me to finish earlier which is always good.

Friday I changed my nail polish colour and put on Essie's After School Boy Blazer (A review will be going on my sites Beauty Skool Dropout and Nail Polish-ed).

Saturday and Sunday were spent with my stepson, we ended up in Clarks getting his feet measured (he has grown so we need to get him some new shoes).

You may have noticed through my week I had little post it flags, I have added these as a reminder for blog posts that are due during the week, it's to help keep me blogging regularly, and not leave really long gaps between my posts.

Thanks for tuning in

Caran d'Ache Eco Ballpoint Retractable Pen 826

DISCLAIMER: All opinions are my own and I bought the product with my own money.

Caran d'Ache Eco Ballpoint Pen

Writing Sample

Caran d'Ache are a Swiss company known for their fine writing instruments especially their gold and jewlled pens. The eco ballpoint is priced at the lower end of their range.

Caran d'Ache Ballpoint

The hexagonal barrel allows for easy grip and stops the pen from slipping out of your hand. The pen writes with a thin line, this allows for finer writing in small spaces.

A good thing about this pen is that it is refillable (hence the eco part of the name). It also comes in four colours (blue, black green, and red), now I could be wrong about how many colours the pen is available in but on Cult Pens it is 4.

As I mentioned I bought the black and the blue on Cult Pens for £2.95 each. These pens do write quite nicely and are now a staple in my pencil case.

Week #42

Welcome to Week 42.

I'm getting back into the swing of posting on a Monday, but for the next couple of weeks I'm gonna try posting my new weeks on a Sunday (it means I have more time to spend on the post)

Week 42

As you can see again Week 42 was an empty week. It was flu week again so massively busy at work but Monday afternoon I started to get a sore throat and on Tuesday I ended up with a full blown cold, so Tuesday onwards was taken as sick days from work (so expect my next My Week post to be completely packed with work to do's and blog posts to do)

Thanks for tuning in

Week #41

Welcome to Week #41, Sorry it's so late life has somewhat caught up with me, and then I was sick as a dog for a couple of days, but on with the show.

Week 41

As you can see my week was somewhat empty, it was because it has been so busy, we started flu weeks at work (this is where we have clinics of 100 appointments for patients to come in and have their flu jab)

Thanks for tuning in

The Woodcutter - Kate Danley

I decided to read The Woodcutter by Kate Danley as part of my 100 books in 2013. I'm not doing too bad at the moment, seem to be making headway with it.

Lincoln Center - NYC

N.Y.C - Lincoln Center

I've had this polish since Christmas 2012, and have only just managed to use it.

This was a lovely dark red, and it went on quite well, wasn't too drippy. It did blob around the sides of my nails so the correcter pen was out in full force.

I will use this colour again, and I think this is a nice colour for Autumn.

thanks for tuning in

Week #40

Week 40 - Part 1

Week 40 - Part 2

This week was a slow one.

At work we were mostly getting ready for the start of our flu clinics, my partner and I celebrated 2 years together, had my flu jab.

I did a first order from nailpolishdirect.co.uk and order some polish's from O.P.I. and China Glaze (post on O.P.I. - Can't Find my Czechbook to come)

On the Sunday it was my partner and I's anniversary, we ended up at Teesside Park and Middlesbrough shopping. We also went for a meal, and went to see Filth (starring James McAvoy)

So it was quite a quiet week.

Thanks for tuning in
