A glimpse into a vintage lovers life and style

ahhh Wednesday... the half way point of the work week...

I haven't been very productive lately, although I did go grocery shopping last last; however, I took my time and browsed, as it was not busy in the store. Other than that... well, I had a nice bubble bath... and well that's about it. Oh and I worked out...

Hmm, its time for Miss Lemon to find an activity to do. There is no boot camp for another couple of month, and Id love to join a dancing class, but sadly have to partner to join with me...

What to do, what to do...
Ideas are welcome!

Enjoy your hump day ;)

My awesome boyfriend shoveled my parking spot last night so I was able to get my truck out and drive myself to work this morning! Finally... the man Ive been looking for! Remember the one... the one who does things for me I cant do myself, who takes care of me when I'm sick, who helps make dinner and clean up afterwards, who drives me to work when my truck is stuck in a mound of snow, who opens the jar when the lid is just too tight. Ah yes, a real man... I guess they are out there, in sparing amount, hidden deep beneath all the scum and termites, the men who lie, cheat, and only care about getting trashed... yes, if you dig deep enough, you will find a real man... that is, if there are any left once you get through the barricade of shitty guys, who call themselves men, but are only children. Now that Ive secured myself a man, after getting stuck in the barbwire fence of children, I finally wrenched myself out and found a genuine guy.

Too much snow is never a good thing!

Good Morning!!

I was a wee bit late getting in to work today because of the mass amounts of snow in my apartments parking lot... which ultimately left my truck stuck... and so I had to get a ride to work. It sucks not having a vehicle and being dependent on others... I don't know how some people do it!

The weekend went by way too quickly! I would much rather still be cuddled up at home watching films and being lazy.

Here is your weekend update:
Friday night the snow started... as I'm sure you are aware. I had an appointment to get my teeth whitened the next morning, so decided it was a good idea to stay in, as I couldn't imagine getting my teethe whitened whilst hung over or tired. So, I went to the mall for a bit after work, then went home and tidied up a bit.

Saturday I get a call from the dentist office saying they are cancelling all appointments for the day and I will have to reschedule. I had got myself all psyched up to get my teeth whitened...and now have to wait even longer. I didn't fancy driving anywhere, so I stayed home. But the best part was I got to dog sit cherry!! She doesn't like the cold or the snow so she didn't really want to go outside much... so we cuddled and watched TV instead. My boyfriend didn't have to work that night, so we bundled up and went to Devlin's for some very yummy martinis. Well, I had martinis, he had rye. After a few hours, we braced the snow yet again and walked home.

Sunday... not only was I oh so hungover, but my back was killing me... I must have moved a weird way or something, but my shoulder blades hurt so bad I could barley move! This does not make for good cuddling! My boyfriend made us breakfast and we lazed around with Cherry until she left and we had to run some errands. We rented Machete and ate perogies.
Also, I am now addicted to The Kardashians! And cannot stop myself from watching it whenever it is on... so I stayed up, even though I was super tired, just to watch it and find out what happens with Kourtney and Scott... yah, its kind of pathetic,but those girls are so funny, and I can't help myself!

Ive got a somewhat busy week and even busier weekend ahead of myself. I just hope my truck gets free sooner than later!

Enjoy the snow!

work, day dream, work, nap, day dream....

Good Morning lovelies!

Again, I return to work... boring, lonely, bug infested work... it is above zero outside though, which is always pleasant. I want to go ice skating sometime soon... however, I don't think the weather is going to stay so mild...

Not much to report... I worked out last night! Hurrah! and had a little nap... that's about it... rather boring... much like work, only better because its at my cozy home. Tonight I'm going to the gym with my boyfriend, which I am much looking forward too... active boys are much better than drunken slobs!

What else is on my mind....? I need to get my hair cut... must be get rid of split ends!!! And then but hair extensions, which may be hard to match to my hair colour...as its hard to dye it my colour, but I will do my best, once I have money to do so.Oh, I also need a good curling iron. Recommendations?!

Still dreaming of vacationing... oh viva Las Vegas, how I miss thee... although I heard it was snowing there the other day! That cant be good for business. Also dreaming of Tokyo, which my boyfriend and I decided to go to... in a year or so...and visit Disney Tokyo! I hope this dream does come true!

Back to 'work' I go... which really means dreaming up holidays, researching various things for myself, answering emails- personal and business, answering the tedious telephone, killing the odd bug, and sometimes, just staring at the wall.

Enjoy your day!

3. Save Money!
4. Write more and try to get something published

Now, what are some of your resolutions? I showed you mine, now you show me yours!

Post New Years weekend

I had a fairly productive weekend... shall we recap?

Friday was, of course, new years eve. I went to new city for the first time since its relocation... I must say, its very nice indeed. We had very cheap, shitty champagne and watched are the strange people enjoy themselves.

Saturday I decided to paint my bathroom. I live in a some what old apartment which has been painted... in ages! That was my Saturday evening.

Sunday I went to the Antique Mall and finally found a retro kitchen table! for oh so cheap!

I had Monday off! How marvellous!! I ran a few errands and went to the other antique mall on gateway blvd; it was fantastic. Its more rustic and filled with so many many treasures! Do go... its a nice way to spend an hour or so. I then decided to clean out my kitchen cupboards, re arrange the kitchen itself and tidy my massive storage closet, which is occupied by many shoes, a bicycle, more shoes, and random pieces of furniture.

I nice, quite weekend... spent with my boyfriend. A good start to the New Year
