Why my credit card should be taken off me...

I realised over the last two months a number of polishes have magically found their way into my sticky little hands. That magical little plastic card has assisted and fueled my addiction. It's time to come clean...

I'm a nail polish addict.
I'm addicted to shopping online.

Also I thought I'd post this as a "what you can look forward to seeing on my blog". So these are the things i have purchased recently...many I have actually already swatched...and all will be featured on my blog in the future.

If anyone has any requests of which polishes they would like to see, just let me know.

Just Like Christmas

After I finished at school yesterday I sped away to the post office to collect my parcels. Due to the snow there was no post for 3 days.
On a side note I really have to start saying work instead of school, my 5 year old nephew is convinced I go to school just like him, I'm not the teacher...

Anyway the lady at the post office was super awesome and was saying how excited I must be to get so many parcels lol. I was super excited!

Five parcels!

And npthing was broken...look at all that tissue paper and bubble wrap.

Loot!

Ok so I went a tad overboard on the Zoyas...but considering out of the possible 18 colours released this summer I only bought 8 I think I did pretty well...even if I slipped up and bought the entire Fall collection.

Here's a closer look at my purchases.
Please bare in mind I've been waiting for one of these parcels well over 30 days and the other for over 2 weeks. These aren't all purchases made at the same time. They just arrived at the same time. I also used a tax refund to buy some of them. I'm not made of money!

Wow...now hopefully we'll have some sunshine soon for swatching!

A Busy Week and Haulage!

Wow! I couldn't have imagined what a busy week this week would end up being.

School is crazy as parent teacher conferences are coming up, It was Nicks birthday on Thursday, Nick had his work conference this weekend, we also had to babysit the cat while my parents were at a funeral and then pick them up this afternoon. We were supposed to do food shopping...but it started hailing so I decided against that.
I've also being working on putting the wedding photos into a photobook. I had a coupon that gave me a 40 page book for $35 instead of $109....but it expired on the 9th of August. Luckily I finished that today. Now I should probably start on the masses of written comments I need to do for every child for the parent teacher confrences. Seriously National Standards are not cool.

Anyway haulage! These are the parcels that were waiting for me when I arrived home from Rarotonga. It was Christmas! I'm still waiting on an order with some Zoyas to arrive...but everything else came :)

The first lot was a Beauty Joint order of Klean Colors and Nyx lipsticks.

Metallic Black, Orange, Fuschia, Purple, Sapphire, Aqua and Green.

Black, Bridal Shower, Winter Wonderland, Holo Chrome, Glamour Barbie and 2012  Apocalypse. 

Nyx Round lipsticks in Tweed, Chic, Hot Pink and Chic Red.

Nyx Matte lipstick in Strawberry Daiquri and Black labels in Adore and Plum.

 Then I had a few ebay orders.

Orly Pin-up minis.

OPI Grape...Set...Match, Your Royal Shine-ness and Serving Up Sparkle.

Orly Fowl Play and China Glaze Fortune Teller

Ok so I bought Orly Fowl Play before we left but I had taken a picture of it yet and Fortune Teller looked lonely. I plan to buy Nite Owl and Peacock from the Orly Birds of a Feather collection tomorrow. Buy one get one free at Farmers!

Hopefully this coming week I'll get time to post pics of my holiday nails, the awards I haven't forgotten about, a few more wedding snaps and holiday pics. Rartonga was so beautiful that I must keep sharing.

Quick Haul-erific Post

I've still been struggling with this head cold and I have a meeting tonight at the bank. Which hopefully leads to me having money...so hopefully we get to go out for dinner!

I have an afternoon tea for my wedding this Saturday and then a few of the girls are spending the night in the city with ideas of seeing a movie, eating and maybe some drinking...
So I'm not sure I'll get anything posted this weekend!

Wednesday was a super awesome day for me. I came home to 3 parcels. One was a book, one was my beautfiul Lord of the Rings blurays...extended versions that are sold out everywhere. The last was my Beauty Joint order. OMG Beauty Joint I love you. My parcel came so fast and was so well packaged. Seriously less than a week to get to New Zealand.
