The life & times of Jacks

By Jacqueline

New Shoes!

Steve and I are getting ready for our holiday next week. We are heading up to Aberdeenshire to spend the best part of a week with my sister, her hubby and my gorgeous little nephew, Aidan, in a cottage in a remote area of Aberdeenshire! I cannot wait. It feels like an age since I've seen them.

Sounds really sad and soppy and although occassionally my sister and I argue I really miss her due to living in High Barnet (North London). I also miss seeing Aidan grow up which he seems to do VERY quickly. Thank god for Blip - even the days I don't post anything I always check to see if there is an Aidan update.

Anyways, we are also attending a wedding while in Aberdeenshire so today also involved getting my hair done (cut and colour) and it is rather darker than I intended but am loving the change. Am sure the boys in my team at work will have a field day though as it is quite a drastic change in colour - especially since I have been natural for the past year and my hair has gotten quite light as I get older (prob the white hairs starting!)

I am having to kinda work this weekend also so managing some emails and issues delayed our shopping trip to Lakeside as I also wanted to get the eyebrows threaded and tidied. Plus of course a new dress. The traffic was mental and we ended up detouring but by the time we got there our lunch was at 430 or thereabouts.

While I was there we saw these cute little kiddies converse so I bought a pair for Aidan - I had to choose the exact same pair I have but in miniature cause I think it will be cute for Auntie Jacks and Aidan to have the same shoes.

Yes I am officially sad sometimes.

Anyways - early night as I need to get into the office first thing in the morning hoping all our issues are solved and we can get some system testing done as time is definetly NOT on our side!
