What have you bought lately?

Wooden windows?

UPVC.

Some simple trainers. and they gave me proof that sexism is still very much alive and kicking. I went into a big sports shop they give all their lines names , I found a light summer trainer for ladies the Keviet all ' nice ' colours light grey with pink trim,  beige with teal or dark grey with lilac trim.
 'With heel support and suitable for ladies running about 10km per week' the label said. They felt ok and Im not running anywhere,  these are just for ease of walking.

But as I turned I saw the mens section and had a quick look... Men can buy the Keviet trainer too, same shoe, same price.. In dark grey, black or dark blue with no pretty contrast ( poor fellas) and the description was ' a light shoe with added heel and forefoot support suitable for men running around 20km per week' ... Say what? Hello?

Out of interest I tried one on. Slightly broader which is good for my feet and the difference in support was glaringly obvious,  the mans shoe gave support and hugged my foot where the ladies felt soft and almost sloppy by comparison.

So yet again Ive come home with mens shoes. I will put a pair of pink laces in them just to jazz them up a bit but Im seriously angered that yet again to get a bit quality you have to go look at mens clothing.

In so many cases we have to pay more for similar products as compared to men or ours are not up to the quality of men's. I know what you mean when you say angered. 

Food. I went to the shops with my dad. I also bought a lovely houseplant: she will be looked after.

Right now I am waiting for a delivery. It should be here in a few hours time.

I bought a new rug for our front entrance way.

Stayed in today, so bought nought.

A two seater sofa , well we live in a dolls house but we really have no seating for guests and keeping them standing seems rude!

Oh goodie I live in hope !

I do need to get out and do some shopping. And not groceries, something fun.

I'll be buying myself a pot of tea at my local cafe.

Paper shredding and how to save time and money.

Unless you want the shreddings to use specifically...

Don't shred the whole piece of paper necessarily, just tear off the important part. The name, and address, and any specific details, then shred that little bit. The rest is usually useless to 'finders'.

It saves lots of time, and the energy used.

Just so ^^

I try telling myself that it keeps people i work, but should it really?

New ear buds so when I travel by plane I can just close my eyes and enjoy my flight.
