It has been two weeks since my last blog post, but I promise I have valid reason for my absence, for which I apologize. Almost two weeks ago I found myself in immense pain (I am no softie, I tell you, and had both Lil' Brigs #1 and #2
sans anaesthetic). After admission to the Emergency Department I found myself in an ambulance (my first ambulance ride!), and later on the surgery table. Thankfully everything went well, but I did lose 2L of blood, so I have been mostly confined to bed-rest after I was discharged from the hospital. I am slowly gaining a bit of strength, and am trying to boost my haemoglobin levels (which went down to 76, whatever that means).
Anyway, even before this all happened, I started panicking at the thought of not having purchased a single Christmas present. Thankfully, even from the bed one can shop online *whew*
Have you done all your Christmas shopping yet?
Takeaway coffee at the hospital...my first taste of coffee and/or food in almost 2 days, it was great.
Lovely freesias and irises my SIL brought to me at the hospital (which I later brought home)
Thank goodness for online shopping!
With the help of Lil' Brigs #1 and my mom, we baked some birthday cupcakes for Mr Brigs' bday last weekend
Managed to buy a little something something to brighten my week, from
Matches Fashion
Finally tracked down these Chanel mesh espadrilles for myself
Today I ventured out to one of Mr Brigs' Xmas work functions, it was nice being out, but I returned utterly exhausted
Vanilla and orange scented panacotta with blueberry compote - yum!
Felt a little 'Stepford Wife' in this Diane Von Furstenberg dress (I wore it in
this post long ago - four years ago!), except I traded the pumps for Isabel Marant Dicker boots to 'dress it down' somewhat...
