This and that. And new bras.
Jan. 31st, 2007 08:45 amI've just left off Maja at preschool. While I was there Valeria and Vendela left for school. And only one of them took her winter/rain jacket. The other one's just wearing a sweatshirt hoodie. I guess they didn't notice that it was raining (btw, a hoodie was known as a "monk's jacket" here in Sweden when I grew up in the 70s).
Today I will have to write a job application and I should probably also try to get to the university at some point, either today or tomorrow, to prepare for friday's lecture. On the other hand, a very short walk downtown yesterday, 3 kilometres at the very most, left me feeling achy everywhere, feverish and in a very bad need of sleep. I do NOT like my body right now. So maybe I should stay at home and rest as much as I can?
I bought three new bras yesterday. Why is it that all your bras die at the same time? Anyway, I spent about 1000 SEK and got three bras for that. One of them was on sale, but this shop both has a good assortment of bras also for larger breasts and very reasonable prices. I have very decided taste when it comes to bras. I can stand those t-shirt bras which have a foam shell and go really high up on the sides. They have a totally different shape than my breasts and the last thing I need is a semi-stiff pieces of rubber foam sticking out from my chest. Of course I need underwire bras and I prefer the cups to be of the constructed variety, with seams. The other kind gives you a much flatter silhouette and when your waist goes in as little as mine do you don't want to flatten your boobs.
It seems like in most brands I can now get away with an F-cup. Yay! Though not at Lindex, which is the large underwear chain here, their Fs are too small.
I also bought a pair of cute wine red shoes on sale.

Apart from that I started on a little linen cap with a flounce around all edges, like the one Hill, the servant of the Bennetts, wears in BBCs P&P.
ETA: When I put back the shoes in the box I noticed that all the fake suede on the left shoes was worn off. That was the shoe that came direct from the storage and I hadn't checked it properly before buying them. So I had to go back and unfortunately they didn't have any more in my size. I got my money back, but that can't replace those gorgeous shoes.
