QotD: My Favorite Room in My House...

What's your favorite room in your house? Why?

My bedroom.  I love the way its decorated (granted it could do with a fresh lick of paint) but I feel calm and relaxed when im in there.  I love waking up in that room.

QotD: I Love My Body Because...

  • Aug 13, 2009

Why do you love your body?
Sponsored by Body by Victoria® from Victoria's Secret.

I dont!!!! Plain and simple, at the moment I HATE my body!! The only part of my body which I like and have always liked is my eyes! The trick is, even when you hate / dislike your body, to be confident (or at least give the impression of confidence). Okay, maybe hate is too strong a word, but at the moment I definately dislike it!  I need to get rid of some lbs (ok stones) and then Im sure I still  wont love my body, but I will like it a bit more.  Is anybody ever really truely happy with their body anyway? I dont think so, there is always something us women want to change.

My job (its boring, and not challenging in the slightest)

Having no money

The fact its another 2 days until the weekend

My blocked drain at home :(

Not having anybody to give me a cwtch :(

Trying to eat healthily

 

However today im loving:

Plans being made for the weekend

The thought of visiting Louise and baby Poppy again soon (I hope)

Friends coming back from holidays

The fact its only 2 days until the weekend

 

Things that are confusing me today (and always do!)

MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poppy

  • Post a comment

One of my closest friends (who just happens to be my old boss) gave birth a beautiful baby girl last week by c section.  Its been a rought 8 months for her and her hubby along with everyone who care about them as she has been ill throughout, but its all been worthile now that baby Poppy has arrived.  Im so happy for them both, and relieved.  I have also been very emotional about the whole thing, which is quite weird for me (no im not broody) I think its just because she has had a rough time of it.

I met baby Poppy on Sunday, and Louise is now referring to me as Aunty Bec! Which I love!!

Louise and her hubby are such lovely people, and I know they will be fantastic parents. 

A BIG congratulations to them both. xx

Its been a while!!

  • Aug 12, 2009
  • Post a comment

Its been a while since I last posted anything, I think its because I felt that I have had nothing really that interesting to blog about, plus I haven’t had much time recently.

So, since my last blog I have had a few ups, a few downs and some comic moments (not at the time they happened, but looking back on them they are pretty comic, and very me!)

The week before last was a rubbish week I go through spells of nothing bad happening, then I go through spells of utter crap and being completely accident prone, that week was one of those weeks from missing the train, to exploding casserole dishes, to getting utterly soaked by the horrendous UK summer weather!

The week started off ok, but on the Tuesday things got worse. It started with me smashing my favourite mug, and only got worse, work was horrendously busy, I had serious PMT and couldn’t wait to get home. I decided to go food shopping after work, however whilst loading said shopping in to my car, I dropped the car key and it smashed!!!! This resulted in me being able to open my car but not start it, I had to be towed home!!!!! I was gutted, especially when I found out it was going to cost me over £200 for a new key, and it being towed!! Later on that night I decided to make pasta bake, easy and quick, so in the oven it went, it looked lovely, however I didn’t realise that one on the hobs on the cooker was on, which would indeed have prevented me from putting said casserole dish on top of the hob which would have in turn stopped casserole dish exploding!!!!!

For the rest of my week, I missed the train or it just didn’t turn up, got soaking wet on more than one occasion, I was working far too much, men were “doing my head in” and was just in a foul mood!!!!

Bet you're glad I blogged now, aren't you! :)

TFI Friday!

  • Jul 3, 2009
  • Post a comment

Its Friday once again, and today im not loving the fact that I have seriously neglected my bloggin :( myself and my home, as I havent cleaned properly for nearly a week, its disgusting! Work has been manic the past few weeks, we are moving offices so its been mayhem.  Everyone is really sad to move to the new office but I cannot wait! I will be back with the people I used to work with, get my train journeys to and from work back and will be in town which means more lunch time shopping sprees :)

I found out today that I didnt get that job that I had an interview for this week, but im quite relieved to be honest, because once I got to the place, saw how disorganised and shabby it was (no im not a snob, but a lick of paint wouldnt go amiss) I realised that even though my job is boring, the people I work with are great and the work is easy, so I think that im better off staying where I am until something comes up that I really want, not just apply for things that I dont really want.  Its better the devil you know after all :) 

I hope to get back on track with my blog next week, fingers crossed. 

Have a good weekend everyone :)

QotD: Five Senses

  • Jul 1, 2009
  • Post a comment

If you had to give up one of your five senses, which one would it be?

I think id have to go with smell.  Sure I would miss all the good smells like cooking bacon, flowers, fresh cut grass, etc.  However there are plenty of smells that I wouldnt miss, for example somebody who hasnt washed for a few days, raw onions and fish!

Friday feeling

  • Jun 26, 2009
  • Post a comment

Its Friday once again, but I don't have that Friday feeling today.  I have been so busy in work the past few days that I have been thinking that its one day behind what day it actually is.  Ive spent all day today thinking its Thursday! Apart from being in work all week, it has been a pretty good week.  I found out that I passed my exam Tuesday, Wednesday I found out I have a job interview on Tuesday and also my best friend asked me to be bridesmaid when she gets married the year after next (I was so happy by her asking, as it was so unexpected that I actually nearly cried!)  Im not too sure if I want the job im going for next week, but its more relevant to what I want to do compared to my current job, which is only a stop gap anyway, however I am mixing more with people at my current job and making some actually friends, not just work colleagues here.  Anyway, its nearly home time, and I cannot wait to start the weekend with a few drinks over my friends house whilst sitting in our pjs watching a film, (sometimes its just nice to relax), then its off to work in the pub for a few hours tomorrow afternoon before hitting town yet again tomorrow night.  Have a good weekend everyone :)
