When did I stop being a DIY girl?

I used to do most things myself, now I:

• get my eyebrows threaded by the little Indian lady at the spa (she's fantastic)


• get a leg and bikini wax (Kylie my beauty therapist has seen my hoo-ha more times than I can remember LOL)


• get my hair cut and coloured (Kelly is a fantastic stylist, I'll never let anyone else touch my hair)


• get my hair styled for a big night out or "event" (see above)


• get a spray tan (those spray booths are so cool)


• get a manicure from the Korean girl at the nail salon (she's fantastic, fast and good and cheap!)

5 or 7 years ago, I did everything myself (well, apart from cutting my hair - both on my head and "down south" LOL). Now I get pay someone else to do it. I guess that's the main reason why I'm not a DIY girl anymore. I can afford to get someone else, a trained professional, do it for me. Which is a good thing...you should've seen my eyebrows *shudder*.

Today is one of those lovely gorgeous Wellington spring days! Blue skies, sunny and no breeze. It's not really hot, maybe about 16-17 degrees (not sure what that is in Fahrenheit..60?). So, it's not a scorcher, but that doesn't mean some people out there realise that! This morning on the bus I sat next to a girl in short shorts, a tank top and jandals LOL. People. Just because the sun is shining does not mean it's 30 degrees outside LOL.

Edited 4.06pm: okay, blogger is being funky. I had to rewrite and publish this post. Weird. I'm playing around with new templates, so maybe I hit a wrong button? Grr.
