I got my hair done yesterday and I manged to score hand massages in addition to a scalp massage. It was a bit of a treat waking up with both good hair and a tension free upper body. I sort of felt unwound down both arms and into the shoulders.

I finally got a box of Epsom Salts for the garden.
I’ve listened to mum’s advice and used them on the soil around that mystery citrus tree near the side gate. Apparently you just sprinkle them on straight out of the box. No need to make up a solution beforehand. It rained after the Epsom sprinkling anyway so hopefully the soil got what it needed from the salts.
I had to forcibly remove myself from Target yesterday.
On account of how good their ladies knitwear is this season. Probably the best edit of this season’s colours and styles I’ve seen on the high street so far.
There were so many beautiful sweaters for $69 and under and while they were cosy as well, the main reason I was so keen on them was that they looked practical. I tend to look as if I’m getting eaten up by a woolly mammoth when I wear coatigans and long drapy knits plus I’ve been known to catch myself on doorknobs and wall fittings as I swoop past, oversized knitwear trailing in my wake. When I saw the flattering cuts and shapes of Target’s range, I had to investigate further.
The being eaten by a woolly mammoth visual effect did not stop me from buying this fauxtastic chevron fur coat. $49 down from $99. It was a fairly recent markdown and there were plenty of all sizes still available at Bondi Junction yesterday.

I know. You’re thinking what I’m thinking. From somewhere in LA, Rachel is going bananas over my find. I’m even going to steal her style and wear mine over a black shift dress.
My more sensible purchases were a khaki V neck sweater and a very fluffy round neck black knit.
I did a quick detour to the $3 Pocket Money Toys display and found (among other things) this etch-a-sketch like toy for Preschooler SSG.
And good news for those of you who perpetually miss out on Priceline’s 40% off sales because they’re always only on during weekdays and you can never find anything that you need in stock online…
Chemist Warehouse are doing a 1/2 price off RRP for quite a few if not all their beauty brands. Their website doesn’t say for how long the promotion goes for but the promotion currently applies to their online store as well.
I’ll be off then. Wishing and hoping and willing the weekend to get here now, already.
