the friday five

Ok, so it's no secret that I'm a hardcore pinner.  Yep, I spend a lot of time on pinterest, creating all sorts of boards for my imaginary life.  You know, the one where I live in a Hamptons inspired home (complete with full interior designed furnishings), have a dream wardrobe full of designer clothes  (that I actually fit into) and jet off to exotic locations every other week.  


Recently I've also taken to creating boards that give me a bit of a laugh.  Because life is far too short to be taken seriously.  So far I've come up with Oookkkaaay ThenThings I will never ever use/do/need and my personal favourite, what's with all the peacocks?  But earlier this week, when Scott was away (again) and I was bored out of my mind/trying not to eat my body weight in chocolate, I created a new board cleverly named  'as if'  and today, because sharing is caring, I present to you my five favourite things from that very board.  Enjoy....


1  //  Half Marathon Training Schedule.  Ha.  AS IF.  I'm more of a Full Marathon type of girl.

2  //  Bedtime Yoga.  OMG, AS IF.  Look how bloody uncomfortable that looks.  And not at all relaxing.  Although it probably would make for one hell of a laugh seeing me trying to swing my tree stump legs over my head, while keeping my arms firmly on the ground.  

3  //  Toilet Roll Craft.  Ok, when I used to teach little children these things were banned from our collage box.  For good reason.  I mean, they sit in your toilet quietly collecting all sorts of, um, fecal mist (Sorry.  Such a gross phrase)  and now you'd like me to use one to create a charming looking photo frame.  To display actual photos in.  Yeah, AS IF.

4  //  Teenage Ninja Turtle Mask/Beanie set.  Ok people, before we go any further I need to point out that this eye catching arrangement is not a costume.  That's right.  You can actually wear this out.  In public.  Because it looks good.  Again, AS IF.

5  // Glamping.  Seriously.  It's totally a thing.  But not for this hardcore luxury addict.  I think we can all agree that my idea of camping is not having an ensuite in my hotel room, so AS IF you're ever going to get me sleeping in a tent with flowers on a bedside table.  Just thinking about that experience is giving me chest pains.  

Have a good weekend peeps.  Anyone else excited about the impending arrival of the Royal Baby?  My money is on a girl named Lateesha ;)

  1. Good luck with the full marathon training. I totally have one of those ninja turtle beanies, just for my dress up box- you never know when the occasion would arise. I'm all for glamping, but my husband wont have a bar of it. Instead i have to make do with the cushy comforts of 5 star accommodation when i step off the private jet he has arranged- ha AS IF!

    1. HA! I love the idea of stepping off the private jet. Sounds much nicer than running a marathon or walking to the shower block of a camping ground ;)
