I have been.......

For the proposed thread about aging, may I suggest a theme song.

I have been soaking in a tub filled with Prada Infusion de Fleur d'Oranger bubbles...

I have been smitten with the Gucci Eau de Parfum I got in the mail today.

I have been spoiled rotten.

I have been reading this

Bahwahahahahahahaha!

I have been wondering if Dig can save the Gucci :

Shera you smell good sweetie pie.

I have been sneezing my face off. Don't you guys love tree pollen?

I feel your pain, cryptic. I am allergic to my office. I sneeze so much more there than anywhere else. And I'm not the only one. There is so much sneezing going on in that office that we rarely even say Bless You anymore, as the frequency would become absurd.

I have been frantically trying to keep my son's allergies under control.

I have been using a syringe to decant the Gucci.

I have been planning my first full bottle niche purchases.

Please provide more details! Do you have a long syringe? Where did you buy it? I am constantly struggling with difficult decanting challenges...

I have been having very itchy eyes, due to the pine pollen. Then the next itch on the list, will be when the olive trees come into flower....itchy eyes, and occasional sneezes! I don't know how to do decants...never tried, and don't have the tools for it. I would most likely spill everything in any case, so won't attempt it! I will leave it to the professional types!

I have been so silly to not measure carded samples when ordering a storage system for them.. only to realize the drawers that looked so large on the detailed picture, are in reality only 30mm wide.
The height is OK and the depth is more than adequate (150mm) so will keep it to store miniatures in a dark place.

As for the syringues.. got allll excited almost a year ago about the idea of using them to withdraw from a bottle. However, EVEN diabetic needles were too thick for the few bottles I tried and NOT a single bottle allowed to be unscrewed.
One of the first full bottles I thought to decant for give-away samples, is about the clumsiest in existence for that purpose: Mauboussin with a top you turn 90° to open it. Spilled about 1/3rd of the juice for decanting .. even with a siphon. Bedroom where I sat on the bed, still smells of it 2 weeks later!

I have been having the same problem here in the southeast US. Pine pollen coats everything with a sickly yellow powder and clouds of the pollen blow through the air. Hey, if this is such an allergen problem, maybe IFRA should ban pine trees!

I love the "Mauboussin" bottles. Too bad we don't need paperweights anymore--that is what they are best suited for!

Sounds fantastic, Wichapi!

I have been watching the pigeons squabbling on the ledge outside my window.

I didn't know you could see where I work from your window...
...I have been having one of THOSE mornings at work The pigeons probably have better social skills than some of the people I work with!

Somebody pour Grey a stiff drink.

I have been amused and confused by this photo all day. Is it photoshopped? If not, why the cheese section????

I've been dreading going in for the second half of my work day. Yeah, somebody gimme a big slice of cheese.

I have been going broke vintage shopping.

I like how DiDi switched the topic so quickly

Lol Grey. That photo looks like it could be real, I see that kind of crap day in and day out.

Seems everyone is competing to see who can be the most ghettofabulous. Who knows why they insist on being seen.

I have been making an effort not to look at that photo too long, my eyes are bleeding.
