Recently I have struggled to hold back! So many lovely things in the shops!
It has just been easier to film them as I am useless at taking photos!
Body Shop
Boots
Hope you enjoy them!
And when there's nowhere else to run Is there room for one more sun&nbs...

Riding Gear: OOTD
I like doing Outfit of the Day posts.
The thing is, I feel better in clothes like this, than an outfit that is "on trend."
This outfit made me feel good and confident. So I rode for the first time in a while and my ankle injury didn't flare up.
Another reason why life is pretty damn good.
My bargain Musto polo shirt from...

And the results are in...
Normally I try to give a bit of suspense.
F**K IT.
I PASSED!
Exactly a year ago it all went horribly wrong...a year on it is all going right!
Maybe I was destined to take this year out? I feel like I have grown so much.
I have learnt to be strong and to deal with situations to the best of my ability. I have made friends with a gorgeous...
T'was the night before...exam results.
So. D-Day.
The battle I have been fighting for a year to 9 months is now here.
A year ago I found I failed my exam the first time. 9 months ago I found I failed the re-sit.
At lunchtime today, I will find out if I have passed or not.
This whole process has cost me so much:
- Mental exhaustion, stress, depression
- Stress on my family
- A lot of weight
- So much money spent
- I have lost friends
- I have lost my relationship
-...

Lady Million - Paco Rabanne
I was preparing to write a negative review but as I keep sniffing myself obsessively, my opinions are changing.
Weirdly I tested this perfume on my shoulder so I look like I am breathing in my armpit scent.
This is why I blog in my bedroom. Alone.
Anyway, I digress.
Lady Million by Paco Rabanne has top notes of neroli and lily of...

Heartbreak Recovery: Part 7
Part 7: Okay.
From the point where my last post finishes, a lot has happened.
I have:
- Sent way too many dodgy SnapChats
- Worked my arse off, earning money wherever possible.
Back at my old job...gardening!
- Sung to the top of my lungs in the car.
- Shopped an awful lot.
- Spent time with my family.
Snapchatting with the...

Heartbreak Recovery: Part 6
Part Six: The Day After The Push
After an awful lot of working, a day off finally arrives.
Go to the yard. Have bowen therapy outside in the sun, keeping warm by the hog roaster!
Go back to the house. Clean it top to toe.
Go back to the yard. Have a nap in the sun.
Sit in the micro pig pen and feed them by hand, to get them used to...

Recent freebies
You know when you think you have been SO organised then realise you really haven't?
My recent YouTube video has been like that.
I filmed this video about my recent freebies, (because I haven't been able to do a blog post about them) then realised that I had a bunch more to include. May have found them under my car seat. Lovely.
I'm hoping to get a bit better at YouTube videos, any ideas or advice would be appreciated...

Heartbreak Recovery: Part 5
Part Five: Depression without realising.
(Normally when I am depressed I tend to starve myself and hide away. This time it was different.)
This is where the days merge.
I work a lot. I sit at the house, staring at the telly with a glass of wine or a bottle of beer (or more) every night.
I go to work early and leave late. If need be, I work for free.
Time is wasted just staring and cuddling the horse. I can't ride anyway,...

Primark Haul
Here's one of a few haul videos I will be doing this week.
On Monday I went to Primark with my friend Josh and I certainly had fun with my debit card!
Towards the end of the video I get very strange.
Enjoy...?!
Rock 'n roll and brew,They don't mean a thing when I compare 'em next to y...
Heartbreak Recovery: Day 4
Day Four: A normal day?
Wake up. Sun shining into my room. A sign for the future?
Spend all day to-ing and fro-ing from the yard. Grooming, being around for treatments, doing dinners.
Play music really loud at any opportunity. Rediscover "Affirmation" by Savage Garden. Find it particularly accurate.
Decide to go to Sainsburys and...

May Empties
I must be in a permanent state of confusion! I thought I did not write last months empties post, so I DOUBLED up this month's post...turns out I did. OH GAHHHD TIME WASTED. Ooops.
So, here we go!
Facial Skincare

Heartbreak Recovery: Day 3
Day Three: Exam Day
Wake up to the sound of a bed vibrating extensively. Alex is deaf so has a thingie that makes his bed vibrate so he wakes up. It's 6am. Ouch.
Get up and dressed. Have a mild panic. Everything is getting too much recently.
Meet up with Saeed who is an economics genius. Revise a lot.
Lunchtime. Agree to stop and have...

Heartbreak Recovery: Day 2
Day Two
It's bank holiday Monday. As I am incapable of saying NO to my manager, I found myself working the 9-13:30 shift. Wages are time and a half, but on a shift like that, sometimes it doesn't seem worth it.
(Could customers note that patience is a WONDERFUL virtue and if you all decide to go shopping on a BANK HOLIDAY you should expect...

Heartbreak Recovery: Day 1
If you have read my blog recently you will know that I was DUMPED. :(
*cue* "Aaaaall by myyyyseeeeelllff"
As I am one of those people who likes to be productive and focus on other things and people, I thought I would show all you lovely people how I am getting over this little *situation* and it might provide some inspiration for anyone else in a similar *situation*.
Part one will not be that helpful, just shows you...
