In Between Days

Wednesday.
Wash and chore day. Then when we had that sorted I had a card making session using the Switch machine. My rosette dies by Tim came from Sizzix, Fed Ex no less, overnight... Amazing service from them. 
My makeup annual subscription is due and I qualify for a free gift of a brush set this time. I don't wear as much as I used to, you don't as you get older you know, but I do buy it on annual subscription so I get the best stuff I can afford. I had to make do with cheap make up for a long time, and believe me it isn't worth it. I'd sooner buy basics from a good brand rather than weekly cheaper brands. It's more cost effective in the end. I perhaps wear it two times a week now rather than daily, but then I'm not on constant show behind a bar with hyper critical clientele now thank goodness. So the brands I stick to now are Laura Gellar and Il Makiage. Both do subscription packs and I chose to have an annual delivery of the basics. Great way to budget and means I can throw old palettes away so there is no risk of infection from old make up. 
Thursday.
Rudely awakened by the postman bringing my parcel from Doc Martens sale. I've got rid of a lot of footwear lately on Vinted, leaving room for some that I can wear. It gets harder to find shoes, boots and sandals I can wear Docs seem to be the best and on Kevs recommendation I'm giving the Pearson sandals a try. At the moment they seem OK I won't know fully until I wear them outside, but I kept them on all day and so far so good. I can add my insoles to them which should help. I am thinking forward because I'll need some for walking round Disney, even if I've got a wheelchair. If I can break them in now, or see if they'll be comfy enough It's better than buying them a couple of weeks before we travel, get over there with no suitable footwear.
