Had a great day today. Went to work and spent the morning catching up on a job I usually stay back after work to do because it was so quiet today. I finished work for a half day at 12.30pm, met my husband for lunch and even managed to get the grocery shopping done before he had to go back to work. During this time I got a new pair of shoes to wear tomorrow night at the wedding party we are going to.

Hubby dropped me off near my dear son's school because I had a meeting there at 3pm. I say dropped me off nearby but it was a 15 minute walk in heels - I don't know what possessed me to put heels on (apart from I am only 5ft 4inches) and now my feet are killing me because after the meeting I had to do the same walk again to be collected! Back to the meeting...... it is that time of year here where Year 10 kids are choosing what subjects they want to take for their GCSE exams. DS also had to decide if he was staying on at school until he is 18 (which he had already decided was a yes). So the subjects were chosen and now we have to wait to find out if he gets his choices. I know this will be a very long wait! So he has signed the agreement with the school and so have I. I still can't believe I am supposed to be an adult and be able to do these things - it is hard enough making decisions for myself!

Even after such a busy day I still got home from work 90 mins earlier than usual so all in all it was a productive day. Especially new shoes........................ yes I am addicted to shoes!

As we are going to the evening 'do' for this wedding tomorrow evening I thought I better get the card made so I spent an hour in my 'craft' room and made the card in the pic. Unfortunately in the process of making the card I managed to break my brand new punch the first time I used it! Not impressed but it was my own fault - I think it calls for a spot of superglue! We will see.

So dear son has his life planned for the next 4 years, I need to fix/replace my new punch, I got new shoes, we got the oh so boring shopping done and still have time to pretend I'm a mermaid and have a soak in the bath (to ease my poor aching feet) and catch up on some TV before snuggling into my lovely bed and sleeping until my alarm goes off again in the morning.................. but I am taking another half day's leave tomorrow so I can visit the Stitch and Craft Show, King's Hall, Belfast. Oh I can't wait!!!!
