Busy weekend

Posted by: fracas on March 29 @ 12:18 pm

I’ve been incredibly bad at updating my blog the last couple of days for the simple reason that I’ve had too much to do. I will make amends as of next week, that’s a promise.

Friday we had an important family matter to resolve which took most of the morning. After this Victoria and I ventured into town for a lunch at Bagels & More and some shopping. In the afternoon I had an appointment for the LPG massage followed by a session at the gym. In the evening Reinout and I went out for a meal. We had a great evening, becoming rather tipsy towards the end.

Saturday was another busy day. I had a hydrofacial in the morning and an appointment with the hairdresser for a haircut, highlights and to make my hair for the evening. I also had my make-up done. It was quite nice to be pampered for a whole day. Yet I was quite apprehensive about the dress. It’s a dress I would love to wear in a few months but it was not the dress for this period in my life. I would have wanted something more modest, but unfortunately it was this dress or no dress at all as Reinout put it when he bought it.

The party was nice. Reinout made quite a few biddings at the auction and ended up with a mobile phone, an old-timer drive and lunch for two, a consultant doing family history research for a full day, a belly dance workshop among others. After this we left. We were too tired and literally fell in bed…

    Your Message@Maria:
    Yes there are a few, but becuase of my extreme vanity I refuse to publish them ;) In all honesty I didn’t feel comfortable at all in that dress. When I first tried it on, I was like “no, no, no this is not a dress for me!”. But Reinout insisted this was the only dress he was going to buy. But in hindsight I should have insisted on not taking it, because it really doesn’t suit me in my post-pregnant body. So no, no pictures alas…
