Happened to have my camera with me at a video shoot yesterday and saw this fire extinguisher in the hall. Interesting how they're everywhere, and never go with the decor, yet we never really notice them. www.Chiotsrun.com

"Here, darling, have a drink and pretend you still love me. ...I like your bowl of oranges."
Having woken up a little too late to the fact that I'd missed the opportunity to record so many types of buses which interested me, I grudgingly came to terms with the idea that it was a good idea to record even mundane buses in their environment. Several things about this picture are noteworthy now to anyone living in North Staffordshire or the surrounding area. The picture was taken at the time when the railway bridge carrying the Manchester - Stoke - London line over Liverpool road was about to be temporarily closed due to 'Upgrading for European passenger services'... something which never happened. Under the bridge, the retaining wall on the left which once supported the yard of Liverpool Road station on the 'Loop Line' has been levelled for re-building and the construction of the new Tesco supermarket. The almost brand new PMT Dennis Dart M954 XVT bearing early 'First' branding is itself no more as is the livery, even their type's appearance on this service was quite unusual.
Yes, this was me forty years ago on my nineteenth birthday. I was celebrating it with my friends from Westmont College. At this point in my life, I had no aspirations to be a career

In the small things of life, the mundane still matters. Even if no one knows, we should give our all and do our best. Doing the mundane could save a life.

Happy Friday! I'm excited to be back after a far to long hiatus (last in 2015, can you believe it?). Life has been in flux. Last year was one of the busiest ever; there's so much to say, but I'll save it for later. At the end of June, I finally finished, packed up, and am now living in Philadelphia! After (nearly) a decade in Chicago, it's been an adjustment, but I'm discovering new places, new routines, and am overall loving it here. Today I'm sharing a shade I've really loved since this past spring, CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine in Mighty! It's actually my first Rouge Coco Shine; I've tested many, but hadn't completely fallen for any til this. I feel like choosing a Rouge Coco Shine can be tricky; because they're sheer, the effect when worn is quite different than what you seen in tube. Likewise, CHANEL Mighty appears nearly neon, but becomes a light and bright pink than worn. I really like how CHANEL Mighty is a clean pink without particularly strong undertones. Because of this, it would naturally favor cooler, pink based skin-tones. On me, it tends to be a pretty posy pink. I think on warmer skintones, it becomes more of a statement (almost Barbie) pink. I've compared CHANEL Rouge Coco to a few of my favorite pinks below. As you can see, it's not a red-pink, warm pink, or nude pink. It really is a pure, bright pink! I think the nearly neon tones make it brighter than the other shades; the sheerness makes it wearable. I have to say this shade was an overall win for me! I'm happy that my first experience with CHANEL Rouge Coco Shines was a success. That said, I feel like you can't go wrong with CHANEL Spring! Summer on the other hand... Thanks so much for reading! I know it's been a while, so it makes me happy to know that old (and new) friends are taking there time to visit my small slice of the web! Let me know if you have CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine recs, I'd love to hear what I should try next! Love, Dovey.
