Nasty weather

Hello everyone,

This saturday I had 3 things scheduled: get fake nails (i started biting them again and this helps), have lunch with my familly and a casual lolita meeting in the afternoon.

I got my nails very short because it will help me resist wanting to bite them, yes i'll even bit the gel nails. I'm that addicted to bitting them. It's my most nasty habit, in the sense that it is really not rational and I cannot simply stop.

I was going for black or red but I got convinced to go for a lovely dark plum tone instead. I like it.

We said goodbye to everyone and headed to the restaurant. On the way we saw just how the weather is terrible and scary at the moment, this is what the Portuguese coastline looks like now, actually today its worse and nobody can circulate in the area due to the danger. The sea is scary, one should respect nature. 

all that foam... 

 Instead of going for sushi again we went to another one of our favoritesPortvgália. My husband loves the steaks there so he ordered steak. As for Mari we just got her rice, some vegetables and an egg and mixed everything together in order for her to have a healthy meal. She likes eating alone now and will often start misbehaving if we say no. This results in a lot of food on the floor and her getting herself dirty too which isn't the best but it is good that she is getting better in eating on her own.

 I didn't feel like having steak, instead I took the opportunity to eat something I really love and haven't been able to eat for a long time, the typical Oporto "sandwich", Francesinha. When its well made its awesome even though after you always feel like you aren't going to eat another one any time soon, its very heavy and totally not the healthiest thing ever. It was not great but it was ok and it was really what I wanted.

Francesinha: two slices of thick bread, steak, ham, chouriço, etc covered in a lot of cheese, a pickle and spicy special beer sauce, Oh and it comes with fried potatoes that we dip in the sauce. 

 I started getting ready for the meeting and when I came downstairs I realized I was more than an hour late to it and that I also wasn't digging my hair (wig) so I gave it a cut and braided it. I like it more now. This means that for the first time I wore a wig so much that it really is close to not be wearable now. It used to be my favorite wig, it is from cyperous. I must buy new black and brown wigs soon.

I wanted to wear my MmM scallop lace op but I saw this one and since its velvet and its so cold i figured i should take this opportunity to wear my velvet dresses before summer comes along. Since the wig has a cute cut i figured a cute bow would be a good pick and then since it was a casual meeting i went with simple socks and shoes.

So I just stayed home (my husband was going to leave in 1 hour and something for a dinner and I would have to be home with my daughter so it made no sense to go. I was a bit sad i missed the meeting but happy I was still wearing something nice. I posted on my facebook that I'd like to chat and sent the Lacebook chatroom link and soon I had the company of three of the most amazing ladies on earth, my friend Lessie, the adorable Azu from nearby Spain and Josine who is very inspiring. I ended up chatting with them the whole end of afternoon and Azu actually stayed for the entire time. I got to know them better and I hope people will join in more often. 

So basically I ended up having a lolita meeting afterall! I even drank tea in one of my favorite cups and used my webcam which has been in some corner for the longest time. 

I had a fantastic day. I had so much fun and felt to nice the whole day that I actually went to bed early for a saturday. I'll explain: when i'm not satisfied with how my day went i want to go out at night or stay up very late to "make up for the lost time". There was none this time. 

I hope you liked reading about my day. I hope I'll have something to post about today even though i'll be cleaning most of the day. <3
