Sparkly

I'm feeling very sparkly today. I had a massive lie in and then went shopping and picked up two pairs of bargain boots in the sale that I'm really pleased with.

I also bought my sister a card to congratulate her for getting her PhD yesterday. She worked so hard for seven years and I'm very proud of her.

It's a cool card that says on the front: "Can you stop being so brilliant please you're showing the rest of us up". It made me really laugh and I think it'll make her laugh too.

On the back it had some wise words that I wanted to include on here. These are the thoughts of designer Rachel Bright...

Be nice. Think happy thoughts. Champion silver linings. Love all things (not just cute things like babies and kittens) and when you do love - love like they do in power ballads (you know like on a cliff with the wind in your hair and your eyes shut, knowing you'll never know another love like this). Smile at people - even grumpy ones. Remember that anything is possible and whatever you do always try to look on the bright side!
