Hello everyone and welcome to ‘Redhead Rambles’. The series does what it says on the tin, it is a redhead (me) rambling about her week. I share what I’ve been up to each week, how I’ve been feeling and what I’ve been listening to or watching. Occasionally I will my share favourite blog posts and links I’ve found useful or interesting.
- My brother came down last Friday and went home on Tuesday morning.
- I made a late night order with MECCA on Friday. I purchased two Stila three piece sets and a Clinique set. The order arrived on Tuesday. A haul post featuring these will be up on Monday.
- On Saturday my brother and I went into town. I went to The Body Shop, Glassons and purchased some new stationery for my desk/my new job. We also went to Starbucks and I tried an Iced Toffee Nut Latte. The coffee shot was very strong!
- I worked my last regular Sunday and last official ‘customer support’ shift. It was a relatively quiet day.
- Sunday marked one month until I get to see Shania Twain. It’s crazy to think it’s been nine months since I purchased my tickets on a rainy Friday afternoon.
- On Monday I was given the day off before starting my new role. I had a productive day finishing course modules, got butter chicken for lunch, painted my nails and listened to a new CD… twice.
- Monday was Halo’s 1st birthday! She got two cards and an enamel cat pin from kikki.K – she was spoilt.
- I officially started my new admin role on Tuesday. A card and some chocolates were sitting on my desk when I went in on Tuesday morning which was a lovely surprise!
- Tuesday evening was the final class for my customer service course. I’m excited to get my marks back for the assessment and see how I did.
- I felt tired on Thursday morning, I didn’t want to get out of bed. I think the six day weeks and longer hours are catching up with me. Can’t wait to not have to get up at 5:30am on Saturday and to have two days off in a row. I’m secretly hoping for crappy weather so I can read and not feel guilty if I want to stay in bed.
- The weather turned cold again this week. The mornings have been almost back to winter temperatures but I do prefer that to being hot.
What I’ve been listening to:
- Cheryl – Love Made Me Do It – The lyrics are so good and the song gets catchier with each listen.
How was your week?

For the most part but there is a little part of me that’s nervous and knows there will be lots of little things to get my head round.

I know, that’s the think about a new job. It takes a while until you feel comfortable. My new job is very complex, actually. We deal with many different things and tools. I though I’d never get the hang of it but I did. You’ll be fine and do great.

It feels like one of those pinch me moments, she is an artist I have loved and listened to for so long it will feel surreal to be in the same room as her 😀

They are such cute sets, especially the Clinique one, it came in a box that looks kind of like a bauble and can hang on the Christmas tree!
