I lost my little companion this week as she went back to school.
The house felt strangely quiet without her.
So I did the most sensible thing under the circumstances.
I went shopping.
That feels a whole lot better.
This week’s gallery theme is: Back to school.

Did you add any chocolate into that self soothing mix?!
Without doubt there was chocolate! It would be in the shot but I ate it all!
Lol – first day of 3 being back for me and I’m off to Topshop! Great minds…
It’s the most logical thing to do, Kate!
Love it! x
Thanks Louise! x
Excellent, what fun! Can’t go shopping every day though
Probably just as well. I need to find a cheaper self-soothing pastime!
I’m glad it helped. I’m planning on a long childless dog walk myself.
Long childless dog walks are so much better for the bank balance! Enjoy it!
Brilliant plan! Now I know where I went wrong yesterday! *Grabs purse*
A lesson learned after years of experience, Actually Mummy!
Ha ha what a great comforter! I have gone for the second best thing – chocolate!
Oh I had chocolate too!
Brilliant
My last one went back to school today. So I am off for a massage!
Excellent idea. I’m thinking spa trip next time!
What a brilliant way to keep buying. I hope there was cake and coffee too!
busy – not buying*
Buying is a much nicer word than busy!
The kids went back today so I had to return to work (the same school) otherwise I would have done the same
Oh no. Hope you get some back to school treats at the weekend instead.
Distraction therapy for parents! Love it!
I should use this form of therapy more often!
Atta girl!! The best way to cope really!
The ONLY way to cope!
Good girl!
I knew you’d approve!
HAHAH brilliant. I would do the same except…I have no pennies. Great take on the theme
Thanks Laura
Like your different look at the topic, that’s the way to go

Thanks Mirka. Shame I can’t do this every day
Retail therapy. Good idea!
My favourite kind of therapy!
Love you style Rosie!!!! I went and had a cappuccino and a bacon and egg sarnie at the local cafe to celebrate LL’s first day x
Thanks Claire. No champagne? x
Retail therapy is the way to go x
Well said! x
