When I grew up, I had annuals like this, that Gran bought me as she only wanted me to happy doing and reading what I liked:
She also bought me more girl centred comics too as well as teaching me how to bake cakes and playing games with me.
and their annuals like this:
She help to mould this girl into who she became and is much missed.

Up, awake and socializing
It's true I have a somewhat relaxed approach when it comes to some daily routines compared to others and this might be connected with being more child-like.
This could of easily of been a weekend on a school vacation just casually lounging having gotten up fixing a quick breakfast socializing and I did read in my teens while doing this although my folks were really fussy-strict about getting fully dressed when you were awake and never wearing your pj's when you're up.
I am sometimes unthinking when it comes where I rest my feet and that so sometimes I feel I could use a bit of "Feet off the table" grown up authority.

Summer relaxing
Summer is hopefully when we get to sit out of doors dressed lighter than in spring never mind winter in multiple layers if it doesn't have an outbreak of showers
This to be honest is really what I like to wear outdoors where let's be honest some of your fantasies may not fit well with other people you're sharing this public space with but is very feminine, modest and totally removed from what I had to endure growing up socially as a male.Tuesday, August 22, 2006
Card games
Well when I was young I loved playing cards either with my school friends in the Dorm or when at my Nans usually if Mom was busy away someplace for the day or so.
We played shape games using Snap and similar games or games like Top Trumps where you have facts on the reverse and you trade information around subjects like travel, cars or sports such as Soccer.
It was fun!
Recently I got some new cards to replace those I lost from my youth trough thinks like Mom's saying you don't need 'em anymore or cos I was ill and Mom was concerned in case they had Germs on them.
As you'll see there's a common theme running through them yes that cat Hello Kitty and her friends as I'm sure if Nan were alive she'd of bought these to play with me loving cute stuff like me.
First pictured is the Hello Kitty Travels top trumps set that can join my 'vintage' Top trumps sets and then some ordinary cards made by Waddington's that have Kitty on around by the hearts, ace of diamonds etc. Last one is the HK twist on the British classic Whot!

Souvenir
I went away this week and by way of souvenir, here is a picture of where I stayed.
As you can tell it was very sunny indeed with all the flower in full bloom in the guesthouse gardens which is something I enjoyed waking up and rushing downstairs to sit out in in the morning. I'd always pack some short sleeved t shirts and pull on skirts to put over my swimsuit as well as hardier clothing for walking and something more formal foe evening dinner with fellow guests.

Presentations
Dressing me as a school girl makes a lot of sense as I am so very child-like on the inside, it's what I feel like most days not relating to you as a adult.
