Stripes and early mornings

I got this dress for $8 at an op shop in Hampton,
it still had its original tags attached,
and has a definite 80's look to it.
It was mid-calf length (ugggh)
so I shortened it
and now I have another cute dress,
with pockets and buttons on the shoulders and waist-cinching side ties :-)

We were woken up early this morning by a pair of Jehovah’s Witnesses
wanting to bring us "the word of god"
Now I have no problem with people having individual faiths
That is their personal choice
But I do have a problem when it is forced down my throat
Or people turn up at my house at the crack of dawn
trying to give me magazines I don't want
And telling me to repent my sins and turn to god
I don't knock on their doors and demand they become atheists
So I gave them marching orders
I don't think they will be back.
On another subject,
Can anyone tell me if Auckland is as bad as I keep hearing?
And what is Rodney like?
Hope your day started better than mine!

  2. Love the pastel colors so cute. Well my friend live up in Auckland and loves it but some people just can't stand it really. As a tourist I don't really mind Auckland, but that's from my christchurch point of view.

  4. Such beautiful candy coloured goodness! Ek, that sounds like a very irritating way to be woken up.
