Photo Every Day #3

Today has been long, mainly as I've had a bizarre neck ache all evening. I think it was just a little stiffness from repeatedly doing the same motion whilst at work looking at information and typing it in as it seems to have worn off now. In other news, tomorrow is Fajita Friday with one of my longest serving friends, which I'm looking forward to. I'm also looking forward to having no overtime at job #1 next week and having a bit of time to catch up on my to-do list. Today's PED is of some Alice In Wonderland magnets I got for xmas, I actually thought it was a mirror but was pleased to find they were magnets as it probably would have ended up broken and battered being in my handbag.

Wonderland Friends:

Song Of The Day: Robbie Williams - Candy
Reason: Ridiculously catchy; once you've heard it once, you hear it all day.

Highlight Of The Day: Seeing how friendly Draco is. He jumped up on my Mum and instantly made himself at home when she popped in.

Inspiration Of The Day: This super interesting article; Clearing Clutter - Part 1 - Understanding How Clutter Affects You - Whether You Realise it Or Not. It provides a great insight on how junk and rubbish in the house can affect you on a daily basis with big consequences.

Today I ordered some new plugs from RICAYP on Etsy. They're really nice illustrations so can't wait to get them and try them on! Thinking of wearing them as mis-matched pairs so that I can have the best of both. I love old Alice In Wonderland illustrations, I have a couple of books with the best drawings in them. I wish I had the natural ability to draw, but sadly I can only draw stick people and trees in winter.

Song Of The Day: Taylor Swift - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
Reason: Love this song, super catchy

Highlight Of The Day: New plugs which I haven't had in about a year!

Today was my first day back at work in a week and already I've got my day off tomorrow! If only it was day-in-day-off all the time! Had my Dad and his girlfriend over for tea and I made them my signature dish, fajitas with honey chicken! It seemed to go down nicely so it's all good. We ended up watching a documentary about some POWs attempt to escape from Colditz by building a two man glider that they managed to hide from the German guards! They never got to actually try the glider, which was hidden behind a fake wall in the attic, as the war ended when Germany surrendered. Really interesting stuff! Today's PED is of my new phone case that the boy got me, which has a scene from Alice In Wonderland on it! Very cute.

Song Of The Day: Faderhead - Houston
Reason: One of my favourite Faderhead songs, makes me wanna dance!

Highlight Of The Day: Catching up with the work girls.

Today we went out to dinner then I saw my friend for a milkshake. All in all a good day after a super busy week. This is my outfit from today. It consists of a black and white dress from Republic with black leggings and a feather belt from Zara. I also wore an Alice in Wonderland necklace featuring a pocket watch and the white rabbit with a black and silver skull bracelet.
