The different time zones are already getting to me and we have not even left yet. I missed the one month mark yesterday and I just noticed that one month from now, we should be on our Blue Mountains tour. I wonder how jetlag will affect me. The furthest east I have ever been is Dubai and that is only a 3 or 4 hour difference depending on the time of day. We will see how travelling all the way to Australia will affect us.
Yesterday I engage in some spring cleaning and cleared out the wardrobe that has all my dresses in. Everything that I have not worn for a year or looked at in terms of gowns for that length of time went to charity. Let's just say, I took rather a lot. That gave me the perfect opportunity to pick out the gowns for this trip, too. So here are the ones that made the cut:
With the gowns decided upon, it was time to sort out the stuff to go with them. I have sorted out the make up that I will take. Here is a comparison between the make up bag I took in November (green) and the make up bag I am taking this time (black):
I have restricted myself to 7 eyeshadows that can be combined in various ways and will go with every outfit, one mascara, 2 lipsticks and 2 lipgloss. OK, a tinted lip balm may have also jumped in, but this protects against UV light and therefore is not really make up.
Now I just have to make the final decision on the jewellery, but I have a pretty good idea what is making the cut there. Once the final decision is made, I will post my treasures here.
My lanyards have now arrived and I really like how they have turned out:
I also have my last designs for magnets now and they have been laminated and cut out. Now I just need to add the magnetic tape to all of them and then they are done.
