TUESDAY!

To get into the spirit of my birthday I received this birthday gift card from Hyundai which is $50 to put towards my next service, awkward moment when I don't  own a Hyundai!? Maybe my details ended up on their database some how. Eh its the thought that counts.

I have been loving the MAC "Chatterbox" lipstick lately and have been getting compliments from my fellow work buddies - I think its a reminder that I need to switch up my work wardrobe because the moment I wear something different they all comment ha!

Friday lunch time we went to The Meat and Wine Co in Southbank - I had an eye fillet and garden salad. Their chips are to die for..BUT since I'm clean eating I resisted the urge, god that was hard.

On Saturday we went to the football at Etihad Stadium - Essendon Vs Brisbane

The weather was nasty in the morning but cleared up thankfully.

I was nice and warm in my leather jacket and bombers scarf.

The game was good, the result not so much!

Essendon have lead the pack all year up until the last two games.. Not happy!

This was post match - We were still happy here ha!

After the footy we headed across town to IKEA we have started on our next project, making the second bedroom into a media/study room. We got rid of our double bed thanks to gum tree and I culled all my clothes thanks to e-Bay so we could start fresh. The boyfriend wanted to set up his computer just because, he is like that. So the first thing we needed was to purchase a new computer desk, without hesitation he suggested IKEA my eyes lit up. 

After walking against the arrows on the floor - Yes I know I know, but we were running out of time as they closed at 7pm. We found the desk and then went  to the self serve furniture section.

Let me tell you, trying to get a flat packed desk into my car was a effort in itself. I drive a swift not a truck.

Never fear, it fitted even if I did have my seat pushed all the way forward. Lucky I have little legs ha!

This flat pack stuff drives me crazy, thankfully the boyfriend is handy in this sense.

I read the manual and he did the manly work and 1 hour later we had a sturdy computer.

The boyfriend is sick at the moment and unlucky for me I managed to get some of his germs so by Sunday night we were both feeling sorry for ourselves ha! He took the day off yesterday but I battled on but by lunch time I left work to go home and sleep. I get so board when I'm at home!?

Gah. Winter is approaching.

NO WORK LIFE BALANCE

I LOVED reading all of the Mothers Day posts and seeing all the photos on Insta. Neither of ours mum's live in Melbourne so we didn't have any Mothers Day Celebrations as such.

My life recently has been work and gym.

Not that exciting hence the no blogging action.

Work has been my oxgyen recently and I really hate it. Working before work in the morning and then again before and after gym its just been crazy but on the plus side there will be some huge rewards so I just need to hang in there but my god I am feeling the side affects ... No Sleep!

On Saturday we went out to Chadstone to hit up some shops. Since we have brought our coffee machine I am slightly addicted and wont buy a coffee throughout the day haha how bad is that!? I feel like a coffee snob but I have found the best tasting coffee in the Nespresso range and nothing else seems to compare. Which I'm sure my favorite coffee shop isn't happy about.

I've said it before - I love their store!
They give you a complimentary coffee and I just love the layout and design.

In my travels I picked up this new Peony for the bedroom.
Silk flowers are just perfect.

I'm getting exited for the Birthday which is now only 9 days away!
I am still here and still reading blogs and commenting but for now I have nothing to report xx
