12 grumps of Christmas

I love Christmas it is the happiest time of year and my favorite time of year however, here is 12 things that turn me into Scrooge through the most festive time of year!! 

1) Secret Santas at work. You work with these people all year you talk and may even socailise however, why do I always the get fussy person. I dread it I put my hand in the bucket to pull out a name (my work do this in august mad huh?) the dread of getting that one person who only likes obscure things the hope of getting Sandra, who only ever wants her subscription of woman's own renewed and bam you get obscure employee that you only talk to onces a year to move out of the way of the photocopier. You search the internet and find a vintage something that everyone tells you he/she will love, you wrap it and give it over urging them to love it and those 5 words come out of there mouth "did you keep the receipt".

2) tropical shops. It's cold outside (or slightly chillier mild weather I live in the U.K) you have your hat, coat, scarf and gloves on and it's busy so why do shops insist on putting the heating on so high your wishing you brought your swimming costume!!! Your arms are full of gifts your in a long cue that seems to go on forever and all you can think of is the beads of sweat travelling down your back. Or if your were clever enough to take your coat off before you got in the cue it's so awkward with the purchases when you get to the check out all you can do is chuck it at the desk at a great force that you knock all the chocolate bars off the sides. 

3) the "it's to early" moaners. Yes October is probably too early to be putting your decs up and listening to Christmas songs and seeing the festive jumpers in primark but, please do not constantly complain about it!! I agree and I agree every year however can you stop telling me cause I am not going to magically stop it from happening earlier and earlier each year!! 

4) Christmas countdown apps. This is just plain and simple this countdown is the single most gut wrenching countdown it put fear into me arrrghhhhh it's only 36 days till I have to atempt to not kill my family by under cooking the turkey!!! 

5) Glitter. It's on everything! It finds it's way everywhere! And yet I can't not buy Christmas cards without it on!! 

6) Christmas cards. I love getting them I love it when I have sent them. I do not like sitting down and writing them! Trying to remember every one and always forgetting someone. I think every year I will keep this list so I don't have to do it from memory again nect year and bam I have lost it. 

7) hoards of Christmas cards. Every year I have too many and every year I tell my husband oh "I'll put these away for next year" and do I use them no! I just buy more to add to my ever growing collection!! 

8)  evelope tongue. We all get the film of a soap tasting glue on your tongue it's gross and has a lasting effect. Why don't they flavour it maybe mint or chocolate flavour?? 

9) Sellotape. I am a pretty laid back person but, I hate Sellotape. It only sticks in the wrong place other than where you want it. It bunches up and you try to straighten it and it rips the paper and sticks to you. And then you can't find the end cause it's stuck to it's self and you have to be some kind of Sellotape wizard to find it again!! 

10) being made to eat sprouts. It might just be my family but Christmas is the only time of year where these nasty little nucular gas producing beasts find there way onto my plate. Does anyone actually like them?? They taste as bad as the gas they produce and being an adult hiding them in my discarded crackers just isn't fooling anybody!  

11) do not eat!! We have a rule in our house no Christmas food before Christmas Eve and the house is full of goodies and your watching Christmas films and all you want is a mince pie and nooooo it's not Christmas yet!! 

12) Christmas Eve adverts. You have battled the shops, written hoards of cards, wrapped all your gifts, food shopping and food prep. Your sat down at 5/6pm and start eating your mince pies settled to watch a Christmas films and the adverts are all magazine subscriptions and January sales!! The last thing on my mind is more shopping. Yes I understand how advertising work however, can you just have some Christmas adverts or no adverts at all so I can keep this festive mood just a little longer before I'm made to forget it all!!

September Plans and Autumn cleaning

With September being well under way now I just want to write about some of our plans for the next month as its going to be a busy one!!!
The first that’s happening is my husband is turning 33 (he might be turning 33 but he’s a 10 year old at heart) and this weekend we had a small Dr Who themed party with decorations, blow up Darlek and a tardis coloured cake. Me and my brother have also been researching Doctor who foods mentioned in the show and we want to see how much of a geek he is and how many he can say from which Dr these are going to include marshmallow adipose, jelly babies, fish fingers and custard, jammie dodgers and celery.
His birthday isn’t until the 11th however all he wants to is relax for the day so the day I have planned breakfast in bed, calming bath, foot rub, movies and his favourite meal Lasagne. He also wants to go out for a meal so I think we will do that on the 12th a nice excuse to dress up and be fancy.
We also have a wedding this month Riches mum is getting remarried on the 13th of this month so we are currently in search for an outfit mode. The last time I saw riches family was our wedding and I looked a lot thinner so am slightly worried about being the fattest person there.  I have two choices of dresses a lacy coral dress and a blue and white 1950’s style a line dress both from Asos.  I brought the coral dress last spring and love it but never worn it because I feel too lumpy in it and I like the other dress but I’m not sure if it’s smart enough for a wedding.  I also have no shoes or accessories I’m thinking of wearing nude flats and a pashmina or smart jacket with some simple gold jewellery.
This month we welcome Autumn and I can’t wait spicy apple candles, colder weather and a chance to give my wardrobe and house a sort.  Although I am not a cleaner I do love a good sort and I have planned the last two weekends dedicated to having a sort through our bedroom, living room and kitchen. 
In the bedroom I like to pack away all the summer clothes and crack out the cute hats and woollen cardigans/jumpers and riches hoodies. I always buy myself new Pj’s and put on a more autumnal duvet set and really get the bedroom ready for cosiness all the while doing a general declutter of unwanted clothes and general odd and ends to take to a charity shop.
The living room is going to have a bit of a small makeover.  We are inheriting some new sofas and a new T.V when my dad moves house, so we want to clear a lot of the clutter and repaint a wall between getting rid of the old and collecting the new.   We decorated this room last year so all it needs is a small freshen up.
Then there’s the kitchen (await the rambley rant)I hate our kitchen and when I say I hate my kitchen I don’t mean just a little of the kitchen I mean the whole of the kitchen from the horrible green walls and tiles to the lino that never looks clean to the cupboards that everything falls out of.  If we owned the flat I would rip it all out and re-plaster the walls and completely start again however, we only rent and don’t plan on living here forever so we are stuck with the cupboards and lino.  I can do something I can paint it but I am conflicted do we want to pay out to paint it when were only planning on living there a little longer?  We have decided that it needs a clear out we have so much junk in our kitchen that the plan is to condense it to make it a little more manageable while we decide if we’re going to paint it or not.

So after the parties and cleaning and work we also want to have a couple of walks catch the last early evenings of summer ready for it getting cooler.

End of summer ramblings

As it’s now September we are hitting the very end of summer and into busy September I wanted to write down a few things I have enjoyed this year.
 I am usually not a fan of summer I don’t normally like the light evenings as I love nothing better that being cosy with a hot chocolate, candles and my duvet on the sofa to snuggle into while watching soaps and Downton Abbey however, this year it’s different I have loved the light evenings sitting in our garden with a glass of wine chatting and taking in the lovely weather I have also been learning to drive so the early evening drives around the city have opened up some beautiful sights that I want to explore next year.
This summer has been extra good for us as my husband found a full-time job (I am so proud of him) he had been frantically searching for a year and in June he got a job that suits him perfectly.  He also passed with flying colours a book keeping and computerized accounts course and is well on the way of getting his AAT accounting qualification.
Although it is fantastic him working and being so busy it does have one big problem I am now a part-time housewife and have lost my much better at cleaning house-husband!! I only work 16 hours a week and we both decided when he was full time I would take over the housework and cooking.  I am the 1st to say I am very untidy I am clean but cluttered how Rich kept our house clean with me living in it is beyond me I don’t pick anything up after I use it, I have found cups, pens, books, blankets and more just in the strangest places. So me being the sole cleaner has come a bit of a shock and after 2 weeks of living in a flat that looked like it had been burgled I had to change so I had a brilliant idea of making a cleaning rota.
I started by writing a list on a piece of paper and putting it on the fridge this didn't work as I didn't look at it enough! Next I typed a rota and made it pretty with stickers and encouraging amusing quotes and put it on my dressing table where I sat every morning to do my make-up. The plan was to read what jobs I had set out while slapping on foundation however, after 2 days of being late rushing around looking for things I had failed to put in its correct place and my life not being like a fairy-tale princesses it was covered by the mass of make-up I had put over it never to be read again. Although the writing a rota had gone dramatically bad and Rich getting a bit fed up of cleaning on his days off the light at the end of a very mess tunnel came when I won an Erin Condren life planner. This little beauty has been a life saver.  It’s bright and colourful and laid out in a way I like.
Every evening I write my jobs and goals for the following day and not only has this begun to work I am also sleeping better as the satisfaction of ticking off what I have done in my day is helping me sleep.  My husband is happier as he is no longer tripping over baskets of clean washing that I haven’t put away. I mean I haven’t changed my whole way of being because of a planner but it has worked.  I would love to be one of those people who can be tidy but, I am not we are always going to have a slightly chaotic flat and find peculiar objects in the wrong place (I found a pen in the freezer I beginning to think we have a fairy who hides things).
I know I always say this but I love writing and want to write more often maybe with rich being at work I can now get around to writing more as I have loads of ideas just never the motivation to write them.

That’s enough rambling for one day I think. Byeeee!!

Our Summer!!

I was going through my pictures on my phone and thought I would share a few from my summer.  Me and my husband have had a few date days, seen a band live and had some random days out with my hubby and brother also the weather has been pretty good for English summers.

The nice weather started in May so my birthday we had a BBQ at my dad’s it was hot and the food was yummy and my husband and brother made an awesome cheese cake. 













 May bank holiday was dedicated to music we went to a pub called kittys and watched an Irish band called Mad Dog and they were awesome singing Irish punky folk music.











 We had a few dates went to the cinema, explored Plymouth city centre and the waterfront,  ate ice-cream’s, tried new restaurants and we visited Plymouths flavour fest which is a food festival in Plymouth where we tried loads of new food  alcoholic drinks which are all locally made.











 This past weekend was the Last summer bank holiday of this year and after a summer of beautiful weather this weekend was raining and nasty however we still had a fab weekend seeing Mad Dog again and getting the train to visit family.













 We have some cool times coming up for autumn winter we have my mother in laws wedding in September (and still have no idea what to wear might have to post the options to get some opinions) and my husband’s birthday and I really want to try and get some more blog posts as I am rubbish sorry!!

What's in my bathtub! Summer edition

I haven't blogged in a long time and seeing as I'm going to have a bath I would post a what's in my bathtub blog sorta thing.

The shampoos I am currently using are Aussie colour mate and the body shop rainforest radiance for coloured hair and I alternate between the two. I prefer the Aussie shampoo because I feel it lavers better and my hair feels more clean afterwards the body shop one dosn't contain silicones which I no is better for coloured hair (my hair is currently dark red) but, you have to use more of an effort to get a good laver. Conditioners I'm using is the Olia aftercare conditioner as I only dyed my hair a week ago although I am going to stop using this soon as it makes my hair a little too greasy I will then go back to my staple conditioner the miracle moist from Aussie this mourturises my hair enough yet is lighter so it dosn't bog my hair down. 



My husband got me the lush happy bathday set and I am savouring everything in it by cutting and spitting them in half my favorite so far has been the avobath bath bomb I currently have a slight obsession with the smell of lemongrass (mmmmm lemongrass) however, tonight I am going to use the melting marshmallow moment. I also have a boots cheap plain bubble bath that is scent less I add it to my bath bombs as I'm not a huge fan of bath with no bubbles. 

Shower gel and scrub are both from soap and glory. I have the orangeasm body wash which smells amazing so amazing my husband has taken a liking to it and has started using it. For scrub which I use once a week in the shower after my Wednesday swim is the smoothie star oat, sugar and Shea breakfast scrub and I only use this once because it smells so darn nice I would probably end up eating it hehe. 



 Errm what else oh yeah hand soap I am using the goddess from lush also a gift from hubby and also one I might have to hide from him!! And razor I am using the Venus White tea one and I have used it twice and it smells nice and it does the job. 

For mouturisers after a bath and showering I am alternating between the soap and glory orangeasm body butter and the body shop mountain rose body butter and I have no preference as they both smell amazing. 

I have no candles in the bathroom currently but am on the look out for a nice scent so if anyone has any favorites feel free to pop your suggestions in the comments. 

I suppose this is my summer what's in my bathroom as I will be using the same sort of things for a while. 

Thanks for getting this far I can't seem to stop rambling :D

Dublin haul!!


I went to Dublin for work and had few couple of hours wonder around and found lush and boots and spent a little time and money. I also brought two things in duty free. 

I first went a bit mad with the Barry m nail paint and got three colours for spring heather, meadow and blossom and are in the silk range and all are shimmery and beautiful. 

I spent ages looking at the soap and glory counter and couldn't leave without picking something up so got the heel genius foot cream I am hoping to get rid of the hard skin on my feet in time for flip flop weather. 


I also forgot to take my hair products away with me so got the vo5 plump it up weightless mousse and I have used it a few times and it's awesome it makes my dank fine flat hair some volume. I also brought vo5 miracle mist to spray on the ends of my hair and does make my split ends a little softer. 


Also for my hair I got roots from lush and this smells awesome and on the pot says it's for fine hair and is ment to stimulate the roots to promote hair growth. 


And lastly from duty free I surprisingly only brought two things I got a nail varnish from opi in the colour purple with a purpose and it's like beautiful dark shimmery purple. I also couldn't leave without buying a perfume and I got 100mls of the juicy couture viva la juicy noir and omg this smells so yummy it's very sweet and fruity and lasts for ages and the bottle is super cute and will look good on my dressing table. 


I had a fab time in Dublin and ate and drank a little two much and I cannot wait to go back to take in more of the sights.

Am I the only one

It's 1.30am and I can't sleep am I the only one who never sleeps in hotels I have to be up at 3am and I can't sleep. What's really frustrating is that I have a really full on day tomorrow. 

I am going to Dublin on a work trip and our flight is at 6.30am then I have full study day then a 4hr gap and then we are being taken for dinner and a night out how am I going to last for the full day!!! 

Maybe lots and lots of coffee and sugar!!!

Anyway I haven't blogged for ages mainly because we have been so busy with hubby looking for work and doing his accountancy course and me trying to get used to being a housewife. 

I thought of a really good blog idea wrote it and then deleted as I thought it was rubbish but I was going to do my how we plan and go food shopping for a week then I was going to post the recipes for the meals I cooked throughout the week. I don't no if anyone would be interested. Anyway I might go have a shower or lie in my room in the dark. Night xx

Monday finding motivation

Well it's Monday not quite morning and I am on a mission to try and organise my bedroom. This by no means an easy task we live in a one bedroom flat and every bit of spare space holds our stuff and a lot of junk. Today while still feeling a bit groggy it's mission bedroom. 

Since Christmas our bedroom has turned into a dumping ground and a complete mess. (Here is where someone would put a before picture but I'm a bit embarrassed to show it.)

Our bedroom is by no means dirty other than a pile of my husbands clothes I need to pick up its clean but the amount of stuff everywhere is starting to get to me. The main problem we have in our bedroom is the lack of storeage for clothes I have one wardrobe that I share with my husband we also have a chest of drawers that's falling apart (this is an entirely different rant) and I have a dressing table that's got alsorts of mainly mine stuff chucked on it. One other problem is being winter things like coats, jumpers, cardis and scarfs are thicker and take up more room.  Our bedroom is also the main room to hold our clothes horses to dry washing as the hallway is just too drafty to dry anything.

I kinda wish one of those programs where people go in and reorganise your stuff but that's not happening so it's down to me.  So after I post this blog I am turning off the internet putting on some motivational music (probably Greenday) and going to get organising and I am going to try to be ruthless and throw or donate anything that's no longer worn or needed. 

Wish me luck xx

General chatter

If you had £100 to spend on just yourself what would you buy? Clothes? Makeup? Shoes?

Me and my husband didn't buy each other gifts this year for Christmas and we were sat after dinner and I asked rich what would he buy if he had £100 he said a game ect. I don't no what I would buy.  I asked rich what he thought I would buy and his answer was "spend 6 hrs in the mall looking for something and then end up with stuff from lush and boots.".  That is true I love shopping I love walking around shops and looking for something even if it's not for myself it's the thrill of looking at pretty things I don't even have to be spending money I just love shops. I love watching people buying things see there happy faces as they pick up things they need. My favourite shops are big department stores where everything is under one roof I really want to go to a big American mall and just wander around looking at things and that's why it takes me so long to decide what to buy. 

When people ask you what your hobbies are can you say oh just wandering around shops?? Kinda makes you sound weird so I have decided I am going to find a new hobby but I am not sure where to start.  Maybe I could knit? Craft? Painting? I could just put it into google and see what I get?

Oh what a bad week

Well Monday was ment to be the most depressing day of the year and for me that has gone on for the whole week. 

I woke up Monday morning for my 1st day back at work after two and a bit weeks off for Christmas and I get a phone call from my sister saying my great grandma is really poorly in hospital and it dosn't look good. I went to work and will drop in to see her afterwork but at 11am I get the news she had passed away. She was an amazing woman who has lived her life to the full to the age of 92. She never minced her words and was very straight talking if she didn't like something you knew about it and it's one of the things I found special about her. 

Also that morning I had booked an appointment with the doctor to discuss the constant headache I has all weekend and I got prescribed an increase in one medication and some migraine tablets these all did nothing I went to bed Monday sad with a banging headache.

Tuesday I woke up with the same headache and went into work and that morning was weird. I work in a small office with 4 specailist nurses and I am there secretary and usually it's the most pleasant place to work however before I arrived something had happened that made them all fall out and the atmosphere was incredibly difficult and I wasn't helping as I wasn't feeling good either. I come home to my husband rolling with tooth pain and had been sent home from college with a temperature. 

Wednesday still have a headache. I also booked in an eye test which told me my eyesight has got worse and I need new glasses. Rich had some of his infected gum taken away at the dentist and was prescribed antibiotics and told to go back on Friday for 2 teeth to be removed (rather him than me I can't walk into a dentist without feeling queasy). Didn't get any sleep this night because of headache. 

Thursday I still had my headache and decided to stay off work so I can sleep and go back to the drs. About 12 after a particularly bad moment of my headache my left side of my face went numb. My dad took me down to the gp who put my face going numb to the migraine and upped my meds more and prescribed more migraine tablets. I went home haven't eaten all day (my new PCOS diet has gone to shot this week) I made myself a hot chocolate with marshmallows and cream and toast with peanut butter and then spilt the drink all over my sofa, me and down the fan grills of my laptop. After the initial swearing and jumping around the room still holding on to the plate of toast the phone rings to give my husband his password to do the accountancy course he's signed up to that can only be done on the now hot chocolate filled laptop!! 

So I have written off this week and yesterday and today I have just done some cleaning and lying in a darkened room waiting for the pain in my head to stop. My husband had this two teeth taken out yesterday and neither of us feel like doing anything. 




Me my husband and my great grandma. I don't look particularly good in this but see how happy she looks in this photo this has helped me smile through this tough week.

Sunday home spa

After a night of very little sleep and this morning with the headache from hell I am spending the afternoon spoiling myself. I also am going through my lush boxes I got for Christmas and cutting them to get the most out of them. Bubble bars are easy but how do you break up bathbombs??!!?? 

I started my pampering Sunday with a soak in a creamy candy bubble bath and omg I smell sooooo good and my skin is so soft. I have matched that with the vanilla dee-light body lotion from lush on my elbows and knees (they always need an extra bit of love) and the Baylis and Harding wild rose and raspberry leaf foot lotion (smells like Turkish delight mmm). I washed my hair with lushes big shampoo and after I towel dried I sprayed Aussie miracle recharge leave in conditioner. For my face I have used my origins a perfect world cleanser and soap and glory no clogs allowed face mask and found out I have ran out of face moisturiser and the closest I have is vitamin e eyecream better than nothing I suppose. Now I realise I have forgot to tone oops. 



I also gave myself a little manicure I filed and applied nail foils as the second time I have done this they have come out pretty well. 


They rest of my Sunday is going to be getting my stuff ready to go back to work tomorrow, cook tea and see what Sunday night t.v has in store. 

Can't sleep!!

Almost 1am in the morning and I am WIDE AWAKE!! So what to do when you can't sleep??? Read Facebook and think about everything going on in my head. So I am going write down every thought in my head and see if that helps with the bit sleeping. 

Firstly I have been casually reading my Facebook like i do about a 100 times a day (not even kidding I'm addicted) and I counted out of the people I went to school with I am one of 3 who dosn't have a child. I am 27 am I going to be an old mum?? Me and Richard have been trying for a baby since we went on honeymoon last May and now I notice every pregnant woman and catch myself watching more TTC videos on YouTube. I have never been jealous but wow wanting a baby makes me jealous of everyone. When we started to try I said to rich I am not going to be obsessed I am going to be relaxed and not put any pressure on myself. Well that lasted all of erm 1 month maybe. I always knew having a baby wasn't going to be easy and that I was the reason , I have polycystic overies and am overweight and over Christmas have eaten far too much. I keep looking at the scales pulling them out and putting them back away why is it the scariest number to look at? It's also the worst time of the year to feel fat because every advert on TV is about new starts and getting fitter and loosing weight.

I have a plan though I even brought a book lol (do people lol in blogs?). I have brought the ultimate PCOS handbook (written by Collete Harris and Theresa Cheung) and it's pretty good and a little bit over my head but I got to the second part total TLC for your body and the section on changing your diet sounds doable. In the book it explains the reason why people with PCOS gain weight and how to help with insulin resistance. It gives you 10 steps to take to make you healthier, it explains not to do all 10 at once and take one step at a time. So as of tomorrow I am going to start doing the 1st goal. 

The goal is to eat more often stagger your food intake so you eat every 3/4 hours to keep your sugar levels level and you don't go to bed having eaten a big meal or binge on a packet of biscuits before bed . I will stagger my meals by having breakfast as soon as I get up to get my metabolism started, having a snack at about 11, eating lunch around 2 have an afternoon snack at about 4 and having a light tea at about 7. The only person I am going to tell that is around me is Richard and he is being really supportive and going to do it aswell. I don't want to fail at something again and my family think oh yeah that's just kelly going through another "diet fad". 

I am also thinking about what kind of mum I am going to be. Me and my mum have never had the best relationship I am worried I am going to be like her. 

I want to be be mum who plays with her kids and shows them that I am there and I will be there whenever they need me and I certainly won't choose not to sit at the top table at there wedding. 

Ok just read that and this is a really long post best try and sleep.

My 2014 plan

Having not written on my blog for about 3 months I have made it a sort of life goal (not saying New Years resolution as I fail them 100% of the time) to write regularly on my blog. As I really want to start something and see it through instead of doing it for a couple of months and then stopping for a couple. I don't think I have ever seen something through to the end since I was doing GCSE's at school. I always start these things like writing a novel that lasted all of 2hrs, making sure I cleanse, tone and moisturise twice a day that always lasts about 2 weeks and then my face feels softer and I forget. So 2014 is the year I see something till the end!! And maybe get better softer skin in the meantime. 

My other life goals this year is to loose weight, read more books (I got a plan for this), get used to being a part-time house wife (urrrggghhhh dishes) and hopefully conceive our 1st baby (fingers crossed). 

If I complete just one of these goals I don't think I will be a changed woman I am always going to be someone who starts and stops little projects but having a few competed might prove to myself that I can at least complete some goals (think that sentance ran away with me then). 

So if anybody does read this happy new year and what life goals have you set this year??
