wow!!!!

I am so surprised at some peoples comments lately. I have decided that in January i am going to get Mimi 'done' she is just 6 months and having seasons, can open her up to all sorts of problems, and as she is so small there is no way i would breed her, i think this would just put too much pressure on her and myself as i don't think i could deal with a litter, and if anything was to happen to her i would hate myself so it is just the best option. Now on to the comments, someone who knows about my IF, heard that i was going to get Mimi done and said i should be a little bit more sympathetic as i know what its like not to be able to have children why should i put my dog through that........erm hello, she is my baby, she is so small and she depends on me, I'm not going to put her at risk of death just so that i can make money from her, there is a bit of a difference between me having a child and allowing my dog to have a litter. Just because of my IF i have not chosen to do this, i would hate myself if i let her keep her womb then get cancer, or i end up with a litter or puppies but she was so ill i had to put her down or she died, she cannot be replaced. Would you ask a parent to put their child in that situation, i think not. Its like not letting my child have their injections when they are born, it is to prevent suffering, not just to give them some pain.

OK rant over.....

christmas chocolates mmmm

I went out to pick up the last few things before the shops close for Christmas and i came across these beautiful chocolates i just had to get some. They are Irish cupcake chocolates and the cutest things i have ever seen, they don't taste too bad either, lol.






You will see one empty hole, that's because my mom couldn't wait for me to take a picture before devouring one, lol.


Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

Day 30 – A photograph of youself today + three good things that have happened in the past 30 days

Day 30 – A photograph of yourself today + three good things that have happened in the past 30 days

I don't have a picture from today as i have been really busy with shopping and the vets and making sure everything is ready for but i will re post a couple from the last few days.



The first one was from Tuesday night and the second one was from yesterday after my surgery.

The 3 good things that have happened in the last 30 days are:

1. I broke up from work for the Christmas holidays.
2. I got some amazing compliments at work about my outfit for the last day at work.
3. I have been able to teach Mimi to lie down (finally) and to push open the back door after toilet and push it closed after she is done.

Day 26, 27, 28 and 29

Sorry i haven't posted for my blog challenge for a few days i have been really busy, yesterday i finished work for the Christmas holidays and me and my mom were asked to do the food for the party so we have been so bust shopping and cooking over the past few days i have bearly had time to read eveyones posts but i managed it, the food was awesome, here is me yesterday:







As i have written before i love Christmas and i love dressing up so whats better than to dress up at Christmas. I was also shocked that my hair stayed curly, i normally spend like an hour on curling then as soon as i head out its gone flat so i was surprised.
I had to have a mole removed from my face today and i look like Nelly i have this plaster across my cheek but it is quite tender though.

Below there are 2 pictures where you can see the mole on my right cheek (on the left of the pictures)




I was told there didn't look like a problem with the mole but it had grown a bit and when i look down i could see it so i thought i will see if the doc will take it off (along with one on my back which had a skin tag in it). So i went today and she injected my face and it went numb almost straight away, the only think is i could feel what she was doing, not in a painful way but the sensation was making me a little woozy, i could feel her 'scooping' out the mole, it was one of the weirdest feeling ever. and now for the next few days i have to go around looking like this:



Now for the 4 days of challenges.

Day 26 – Someone you admire.

I admire Emma Watson, Hermionie Grainger from Harry potter, i know this one sounds strange but never once have i heard that she has been a diva or thinks she is better than anyone because she is famous, it was only recently that she said how shocked she was when she realised just how much money she has. She also goes to uni in America like any other normal girl. Such an inspiration.


Day 27 – A picture of you last year and now and how have you changed since then?



This was at my baptism in march 2009, since then i have changes in that i no longer attend church. I am and always will be a christian but last Christmas i was accused of stealing the one of our pastors tops from the ironing shop where i used to volunteer every Thursday morning and the odd day when someone else couldn't do it. I couldn't believe it, they were always gossiping about people who had left the church for whatever reason, and the day the top went missing i left with a tiny little gift bag that was about 2 inch by 4 inch which had a little gift from the pastor for my help in the shop, so where was i supposed to have put this top, i am not even the same shape or size as her. I just thought this was not on, for a while i was having texts asking if i had seen it as it was missing then that it was expensive and i will admit i did iron it, but i was hanging in that shop when i left. So that is how i have changed from this picture.

Day 28 – Your favourite movie.
I have so many movies that are my favourite that i don't know what to put, but i will say that some of the movies i can watch over and over again are the bring it on movies. I saw the first one while i was a cheerleader and i loved it.







Day 29 – Something you could never get tired of doing.
I could never get tired of watching Disney, it doesn't bother me if it is movies or shows i love Disney, i don't think i will ever grow out of it.


Sorry about the picture over load, i think i got a little carried away.

Day 25 – Your Favourite Colour

My favourite colour is purple, and pink. Pink used to be my favourite but then it started to get very popular for chavs, i mean head to toe in pink tracksuits and their kids the same so i cut back on the pink. But purple is like totally awesome, that's why my colour scheme for the wedding is purple. For your viewing pleasure here are a few picks of my purple bits and pieces.


Friday 17 December 2010

Day 24 – A photo of something that means a lot to you.


This means such a lot to me, this is me and my mom, she hates having her picture taken, lol. My mom is my best friend, i know people say their mom is their best friend but they have another best friend, well no, me and my mom do so much together its unreal, we used to go to the gym together like 5 times a week, we go shopping every week together, we even work together, if i have a problem my mom is there, if she has a problem i am there, the only thing is when i move out i will miss my mom so much even though i will be seeing her almost everyday for work.

Thursday 16 December 2010

Day 23 – Your Skincare Regime.

I have never really been effected by spots until these last few years with stress but even then there are only a few and nothing really major so when i was in college i would only uses wipes on my face unless i was having a facial then i would have the lot, cleanse tone and moisturise, now i sometimes use moisturiser before i put my make-up on but as i don't wear it every day i just stick to a bit of Johnson's baby lotion and sun cream if I'm gonna be outside a lot.

Wednesday 15 December 2010

Day 22 – A photo of you as a child.


This was me when i was about 4 or 5, i loved having my picture taken so i have a million pictures that i could put on here but i dont think my scanner would cooperate for that long, lol.

Tuesday 14 December 2010

Day 21 – Something you crave a lot.

Something i crave a lot, well lately anyway, is a burger. Preferably a Burger king XL bacon double cheese burger. Apart from my recent gorge i have been quite good with the diet but at work last night i was so hungry all i could think about it one of these burgers, and a plus point is Merry hill shopping centre is open till midnight up till Christmas so i could have got one when i finished work at 10 but i didn't i went home and had me a small pizza baguette. So here for your satisfaction is a picture of THE burger.

The meaning of my blog name is that this is about my preparation for my big day with a few other bits in there too.
Day 19 – Another picture of yourself.



This is my new outfit for work next week, i love dressing up.
Day 20 – A photo of something that makes you happy.




I love to see a winter sunset, this one was taken while on my way to work last week, i had to catch it as we were driving down a hill, some days there were better views but you have to catch it just right before the sun dips below the hills.

Day 15 – Something you don’t leave the house without. and Day 16 – What’s in your bag?

I thought i would do both of these together as i never leave house without a few things that are in my bag.
First i never leave the house without lip balm, at the moment it is a fanta orange flavour and it keeps your lips so lush i am gonna stock load it just in case.


Second, i never leave the house without my phone, its not only my phone anymore, it is where i keep track of my appointments and results and my little notes and questions to ask different people at different places.


I have just today emptied my bag out so in there now i have, tissues (both for my nose and for doggy poop), my purse, perfume, deodorant, mouthwash, face cream, phone, 3 lolly pops, and lip balm.

Tuesday 7 December 2010

Day 14 – A TV show you’re currently addicted to.

This one would have to be misfits. I have never laughed so much than when i watch this. If you haven't seen it or missed the first season, it is about this group of young people on community service and then they all realise they have special powers, they get into all kinds of trouble. Its definitely one to watch.

Saturday 4 December 2010

Day 11 – What’s in your makeup bag?

well as of this morning my make-up bag is mostly empty as i had to tip it all out to find what i needed so i will just run through a list of what is in there maybe with some pictures if i can find them on google.

First we have my Bourjois bio detox organic foundation, this brand is one of the only ones that goes pale enough for me and it isn't to thick.

Then we have Lancome matte finish powder.

Then we have Rimmel max mascara, i get different mascara every time as i am yet to find one that is perfect this one is good but a little bit clumpy sometimes.



I have an eye liner that i have no idea what brand it is but this is the closest picture i could find, it has a bud on the end for application and there is a lid that goes with it that has a hidden sharpener in it.

Then there is clarins 3 in one blush, and tint, it can be used on cheeks lips and even eyes, it is awesome. 



I have a few different of these Barry M dazzle dusts, in blue, silver and pail pinks. Not that i know where all of them are, lol.




I have a few of these too, they are from Avon, and i have the black and grey, a pink and purple and i think a blue one.


Obviously i have to have a whole group of make-up brushes from the Sporty range.


And last but definitely not the least important is the good old Johnson's baby lotion. I love the smell and how soft it leaves your skin, i cant wait till i have a baby so that my house can smell of this all the time.

Day 10 – A photo of our favorite place to eat.

This one is a little bit of a fail as i don't have a picture or can i find a picture of it but my favourite place to eat (or take home and eat) is Top1 pizza, their pizza is the best pizza in the world, i love pizza hut and domino's but this is so much better, they do stuffed crust but not just with cheese they do it with pepperoni in the crust too, it really is awesome.

Thursday 2 December 2010

Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased.

I went shopping today as a new Iceland has opened so we decided to stock up for Christmas, then we went to aldi as they had a chidurky, dickrky, turducken or what ever they are called these days lol well a 3 bird roast for Christmas dinner so we went there and i found the cutest pair of wellies i just had to get them so here they are.



Arnt they just the cutest things ever??????

Here is a picture i took today, Mimi has been a little off her food with a gurgling belly yesterday so i thought she was sick but she seems to have all her energy and has eaten her breakfast today so i let her out in the garden again in the snow and this picture is just so cute.


That was supposed to be my workout trampoline, but the dog loves it so we left it out for her.

Day 3, Day 4, Day 5 and Day 6

I haven't been here for the last few days i have been quite busy having new fence in the garden and sorting out Christmas decorations so here is a big post today for my challenge.
Day 3 – Your idea of the perfect first date.
My idea of the perfect first date would be something like a picnic so that its not too formal and not too loud so you can get to know each other then end with him walking you home with a single kiss, aawwwwww.


Day 4 – Your favorite photograph of your best friend.



This is Amy, i love this picture.
Day 5 – A photo of yourself two years ago.



This was taken January 2008 so its nearly 3 years ago but when we had a photo shoot, that was a fun day. 
Day 6 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.



I have posted this picture before but i thought i would use it again, i love penguins i would love to have one, I'm sure its cold here in the winter for one as the temperature recently has gone to around -2 centigrade which is cold.


On another note, i had an appointment today about the mole I'm gonna have removed, we thought it was to have it off today but it wasn't, so we went all that way just so that she could say it didn't look like there was anything wrong with it and if i knew having it off would leave a scar?? EERRRRRMMMM hello I'm not stupid and its not like I'm a super model or anything how will a scar be any different to the mole anyway. so i have to go back on the 22nd December to have it taken off then i don't have to go to work as i break up for Christmas the day before.
On another note, again, i went back to weight watchers this morning and was crapping myself, i had a huge binge yesterday, i didn't even want to work out my points, i had an OK brunch (i took the dog out so wasn't back until half 11 so had brunch instead of breakfast) then my dinner was not too bad apart from i had some roasted potatoes in oil, then in the afternoon i couldn't stop i ate 2/3 of a pack of biscuits, 2/3 of a tube of pringles, a slice of pizza, a packet of crisps and a weight watchers chocolate dessert. So i get to the front of the queue to be weighed and i am so nervous i felt like being in school again where i was gonna be told off, but it turns out i still lost 1 and half pounds this week, which was pretty good to say i binged.

4 Things.

Today i was catching up on a few blogs and came across this little thing that someone was doing, it was 4 Things then you have to answer them so i thought to pass the time before i go to work i would do them. Here goes.


4 Things I did 10 Years Ago (2000):
  1. I started secondary school.
  2. I moved into my current house.
  3. I dyed my hair for the first time.
  4. I lost one of my best friends.


4 Things I did 5 Years Ago (2005):
  1. I had just started my second year at college.
  2. I lost a lot of weight on diet pills.
  3. I fell so deep into depression, i was on medication and was concidering the unthinkable.
  4. I got my first job at the showcase cinemas and it was awesome. 

4 Things I did Yesterday:
  1. Decided that i was going to put christmas lights on the outside of the house.
  2. Decided Friday is christmas shopping day.
  3. Had a headache.
  4. Went to work.

4 Shows I love to watch:
  1. 19 Kids and counting (it hasnt got to 19 kids and counting over here yet but i have seen it in advance)
  2. Hannan Montana forever even though i am an adult i still made sure i stopped what i was doing when the hour long special came on to so how she told everyone that she was miley, on the leno show too, it was awesome and i loved the one where she sang the song for the families of army men and women, it bought a tear to my eye.
  3. Teen mom, i know it sounds sad but i do enjoy the drama.
  4. Sister wives, i dont believe in polygammy but who am i to say other people shouldnt do it, it is quite and eye opening program. 

4 things I love to do:
  1. Read, i have always loved to read, i will read almost anything, and i must say when i am in the book store i do judge a book by its cover, that is sometimes how i pick my next read, it doesnt always work out but it is still a way of picking.
  2. Shopping, i think this one is a little bit predictable.
  3. Walk my dog.
  4. Play on the Wii.

I just had to share Day 2 - a picture of something you ate today.

UPDATED!!!! I didnt actually realise that todays challenge was something i ate today until i just looked so it was quite a good thing i had a yummy lunch today, lol.



Well i actually got into my weight watchers book and looked at what real food i can eat apart from rabbit food and so i came up with a rather yummy lunch today, i had
steamed chicken breast = 4 points

oven chips = 5 points

side salad with half portion of cheese = 2 points

bbq sauce = 1 points

fruit juice = 2 points

Total was 14 points which as my main meal of the day was awesome i think, just take a look.



That was one tasty lunch. I am left with 12 points for today and that will be about a 3 point snack and a cup-a-soup for 1 point, the last 2 days i havnt had all my points, i dont know if this is going to make a difference but i cant see how eating more is going to help.

Wednesday 24 November 2010

Day 1 – A photo of yourself and a description of how your day was.


My day today didn't quite start as it usually does, normally i am woken up by Mimi jumping at the side of the bed but i woke up this morning quite late and she was still asleep. Obviously when i started moving she got up too. I got up fed her then let her outside. I then got ready to go out to tesco to get something for my dinner, i didn't know what i wanted at this point, so off me and my mom went on the short walk to tesco, i ended up buying a multi pack.....no not of biscuits but of magazines, a pack of grapes and a cabbage, see i love cabbage, if it wasn't for my love of cheese and Italian food i would be so healthy as i love most veg, so i decided i was going to have cabbage with chicken and a sprinkle of cheese for my dinner that should have come to around 10 points. When i got to the checkout i was served buy the guy who always had to pet Mimi when i took her in when she was so tiny, he asked where she was today and i told him that i didn't want to bring her as we were told to leave the main store before so i didn't want her to be banned from the other shops too, he said i should argue that there are no signs up about not taking the dog in, plus she was always carried anyway so where is the problem?? Anyway, i went home and made my dinner, and started to design the writing for my Christmas card to Ruth and David from the US, by designing the writing i mean, my mom has a machine that can cut out and draw things so i went online to pick a Christmas font and tried a few out and finally finished it, all i need to do now is stick it down then fill it out, pop the gift i got her in the envelope and send it off. Well then i caught up with the blogs i follow then had to get ready for work, at this point i could feel a headache coming on, so i had to suffer at work with one of those niggly headaches that is right at the front above your eyes, well then i came back and decided i wanted a fish finger sandwich, but yes you guessed it we had no fish fingers, so i ended up cooking a coated fish portion then mashing it onto a sandwich and you know what?? it tasted awesome!!!! I could just eat another, but i wont as i am on my weight watchers.

Day 28-Something that stresses you out and Day 29-3 Wishes

Day 28 - something that stresses you out. I think this is pretty obvious, what stresses me out so much is the fact that my body isn't the same as someone else my age, i mean, i don't want to be like the same but you always hear people say your young you have your health and nothing to worry about infertility is something that happens when you leave having children too late, but in my case even if i was 'old' at the ripe old age of 23 then when would have been my time, 10 12 14 years????? this is so stressing and to make it a little bit more stressing i still have to lose weight before getting the IVF, i went for the first meeting for weight watchers this morning and so tomorrow i start the diet, i am just hoping i lose at least 8 lbs by then. all these things are what is stressing me out.



Day 29 - 3 wishes, wish 1- i wish my body would just work the way it should, wish 2 - that Ruth could get her wish of a healthy baby, i know i don't know her but what i do know of her she is so deserving. wish 3 - i wish for my mom not to hurt so much about not seeing her grand kids.

Day 27-Pets

Since i have been old enough to buy and look after my own animals i have had a few so i didn't really want to leave any of them out so i am gonna give them all a little recognition.

My first pet was a hamster called Dora. She died of old age.

Then we have Dora, yes that's right i had 2 hamsters called Dora because when i had mine my sister got my niece one but then didn't want to look after it so i had it. She died of wet tail.

Then i had 2 little hamsters that the store said could be placed together but the one killed the other one. First we have Bella who was killed by fizz.
Then fizz, who dies of old age.
Then i had a rabbit called bob who is still with us at the ripe old age of 3 ish.

Then i had a tiny little Russian hamster the was originally called Zena but after being able to escape her glass tank then a sealed plastic cage i changed her name to Lil h (h for Houdini) but she dies last month i presume of old age. She was that small she is actually next to a loo roll tube in the picture.

For the past about 4 years we have also had 2 other animals that i didn't buy but i am the one who has housed them in my room when needed, feed them and water them and clean them out and these are chip and monk, our 2 chipmonks, my dad got these from a guy at work who had to get rid of them, they did have names but we couldn't remember them so i just called them chip and monk. first is chip then monk. we still have these.

Then you gotta save the best till last, my little baby Mimi, my king Charles spaniel. Check out her own little page at the top for all the up to date info and pics.
