My morning Routine!

Since I didn't really take photos yesterday (silly me!) I decided to do this blog on both yesterday AND my morning routine!!
Yesterday was really dull in terms of blogging about it I just exercised, had a bath, studyed and began making an animation on GoAnimate! I will post the link to the animation here tomorrow when its finished!! But perhaps not in this blog...MWUAHAHAH ahem..

Anyways here are the two pictures I took yesterday:

Dress from Peacocks, Dark green cardy from New Look, shiny dark blue tights.

I'M SHINEY LOOK hahaha!! Ahem anyways, that weather slowly got cloudier and cloudier and cold so no bike ride this day either :( BAW I WANT TO RIDE MY BICYCLE. Ah well, at least the end of the day was pretty:

Red sky at night, shepards delight!

And that was really it for Wednesday haha...ON TO THE MORNING ROUTINE
Thanks to iGoogle and Google Calanders, I now have a schedual I like trying to roughly stick too. Which goes as follows (this is for todays, Thursday)
0915-0930 ~ Breakfast

Nommy nommy nommy

0930-1030 ~ Write blog and bum on the net
1030-1100 ~ Get bath or shower (this varies day to day. Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays, this time is labeled Exercise and then 1100-1130 ~ Bath/Shower )
1200-1300 ~ Study
1530-1600 ~ Turn hot water on (for the boyfie! This doesn't apply to Fridays where he comes home early haha)

So thats my rough schedual, I also have a to do list which I like putting things on and see how many I can do!!
Now my morning routine that I am going to discuss starts with a bath or shower, where I wash my face. I use a face wash and a mild exfoliator in the mornings:

Clearasil Biactol Daily Gel Wash (I can only find this in Superdrugs!)

I squirt a bit on the Body Shops facial brush and lather up

Johnsons 3 in 1 gentle exfoliating facial wash. I like to use this as a gentle exfoliator just to buff my skin ready for moisturiser and make up.

Now on Sundays I use a different exfoliator once a week just to give it a good old scrubba dub dub

St Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish Fighting is love!!

I love St Ives Apricot scrubs, I use them on my face AND body!! They are just the best exfoliator I can get (cheaply)!!
Once I have got out of the bath or shower I spritz some of this on my skin and rub it in:

Avons Skin so Soft replenishing dry oil body spray

Makes my skin yummy and soft and keeps in the moisture of the bath. Its not as oily as baby oil and so doesn't leave a greasy residue on my skin for long!! I usually spray it on my arms and my lower legs!
When I get back in the room I apply a ton of stuff once again haha! I start off with deodrant, I prefer roll ons so they need some time to dry before placing clothes on so I do this first:

Dove goFresh 24h protection 0% alcohol

I love Dove roll ons as they are so non irratating and perfect for my sensitive skin!! Now being a slightly larger lady I do find myself succumb to sweating sometimes and I do get hot flushes. So this baby sorts that out on my underarms!
Next is my ever faithful toner which I love and will never replace as it never irritates my skin and it does its job:

Superdrugs Tea Tree oil cleanser and toner

I use this baby in the morning and let it dry on my skin before applying anything on top, I do love it so!
Next I apply moisturiser to my body and my current one in use is:

Nivea Happy Time!! Wheeee

I love Nivea, honest to god LOVE NIVEA. I use the body moisturiser and the lip balms and I have the cult favourite massive blue pot of the stuff which I slather on my face and neck once a week. The only problem is the facial stuff rides a bit on the pricey side so I just stick the the body stuff and the lipbalms!!
Just before I get dressed, I spritz on some perfume on my neck, clevage, wrists and back of the knees. My favourite perfume of all time is:

Beyond Paradise by Este Lauder <3

LOVE this such a nice scent and one my boyfie likes too!! And the bottle is so pretty and multicoloured, but I am running very low D: I need a new bottle!
Once I am dressed and decent I apply eye cream and face cream. If anyone knows a good eye cream for dark circles please tell me and I will test it!! Now my current one isnt TOO bad it moisturises and slightly reduces them but its not a big difference:

natural high brightening eye cream

You can buy this at Superdrugs as I said moisturises and reduces dark circles, but doesn't reduce them that much.
My facial cream at the moment is this:

The Body Shop Aloe Soothing Moisture Lotion SPF 15

Now this is alright but after a while it seperates, so I am looking for a new Day Moisturiser for less with SPF!! If you can recomend one, that would be cool :D Either that or I just look in Superdrugs, my most favourite store haha!! (Where I get a discount ;) )
With my hair, if I just washed it, I spritz a bit of this in ends after its dried a bit with the towel:

Aussie Lucious Long Leave-In Conditioner

I love Aussie stuff, I use their 3 Minute Miracle Hair Mask once a week and it smells LOVELY might have to convert all my hair stuff over to Aussie! I wonder if they do a good blonde shampoo...
If its a none washing my hair day, I spritz a bit of this in my hair to make sure its not greasy (my frindge can get greasy SO easily!)

batiste Dry Shampoo in Tropical

The best thing since sliced bread for ladies everywhere!! I have love for this!! I am always buying the different scents just to have a change each time, but I think I like this one best!!
Well, that is my morning routine, seems kinda long but it doesn't really take too long to apply all this stuff!! A few things I will change when they run out but others will be timeless :D

Thanks for reading!

Tuesdays are for Thunder Storms!

Heyo!! How was your Tuesday bloggers? Mine was very mixed up, when I first got up about half 9 it was glorious sunshine and lovely. Then five minutes later it went really really REALLY dark and a massive drop hit my window and I was like uh-oh (spaghettiooooss) Then it thundered and POURED down with rain!!

Was sunny five minutes ago...

And so I took breaks from writing Mondays blog to keep staring out the window in awe and disbelief at the sudden change of weather!! I went to sit down again and suddenly BANG massive hail stones started banging against the window!!

All the white blurs are the hail stones! Huge they were!

Luckily this horrendous weather stopped after a while but it stayed immensly dark till the afternoon, which didn't help with the electricity running out for half an hour while I had my shower! It was so dark, I was tempted to go back to bed!! Instead, I prevailed, found the electric key and popped that in the slot and voila! I can put my light back on! So I was saved my midday nap!!
I managed to fit some studying in before attacking my nails with my mani kit. They needed a good home mani!!

My nail stuff!

I need a good professional mani and pedi, specially the pedi, my toes are looking abused, poor things!! Least they are brightly coloured now though! I used Rimmels I <3 Lasting Finish in Sunshine and Tangerine Queen and my base and top coat is by Avon, 24k Strength! I love the little mini manicure set I have, its shaped like a cat and I got it for Christmas!

So cute, but a bit dirty from travelling EVERYWHERE with me!

Since it was so dull and cloudy outside I did a lovely bright nail to cheer myself up!!

Mmmm makes me think of sweeties

Its a bit like summery yellow and oranges of Autumn (I think haha!) coming together. Since its late August and soon to be September, which means the end of summer and the begining of Autumn!! YAY I love Autumn its my second favourite season next to Spring!
Something else yummy was these Neapolitan Bakewells. Naughty but soooo nice!! Least I haven't had any chocolate though (apart from the chocolate bit in this haha!) Usually I would be snacking on rocky bars, lots of them, but I had two of these today and two spoonfuls of ice cream, which is a lot less crap than I normally eat!!

OHM NOM NOM MR KIPLING YOU ARE MY WEAKNESS

I swear, Mr Kipling is out to make me fat!! I love nearly all his cakes!! Must. Not. Eat. Cake. Luckily all the crap in the house of mine and boyfies is gone now so I won't be attracted by it (well apart from the Nutella and White chocolate spread but I am managing to resist that for now!)

Oh hows this for a stinker. At the end of the day it was soooo windy and cold but it ended up like this!

GAH

I wanted to go for a bike ride, but it was waaaaaay to cold and windy!! Stupid weather, I hope today is better!!

Dress from Primarni - £15, Cardy from Charity £3, black leggings

So thats all from me today!! See you later girls!!

Mondays are for washing walls

scrubba scrubba scrubba

Okay so the weather yesterday was IMMENSLY HORRIBLE. Poured down with rain all day. Seriously. Urg!! Typical Monday!! At least I wasn't too bored with the kids running around the house and leaving their facebooks on so I could do a sneaky bit of frape(facebookrape) haha!! Silly children, leaving their facebooks open for me, too tempting!!

Since it was raining outside, the kids had to think of something to do inside (apart from bothering me!) and they found this weird chinese game that was called Twisty Spaghetti or something:

I love a bit of fasta pasta action. Specially with a twist.

The mat was weird too, like twister but with spaghetti pictures on it!!

An example of said mat with crazy child on it. Makes me hungry looking at it. Mmmm roasted children.

Like twister, it also had a spinner and guess who had to be the spinner!! I took time out from my busy schedual of internet addiction to give the kids what they wanted and flicked the black arrow into submission. It was funny watching them play it but a shame I didn't really have more time!! They were like do you want to have a go, hell no I said! I don't do games like that haha! Not bendy enough!

They had fun though. Either that or were in pain. I'm gonna go for fun.

After that they decided to take it upon themselves and keep me company in mine and the boyfies room, rolling on the bed (which I had made earlier to perfection D:) and generally messing about!! So I got the middle child to sort them out!! Which he did and he managed to vacate them back into the little sisters room!

Now stay there kiddies

Oh no you don't!

This picture is just too funny to caption, look at her face!

After much wrestling and bum pinching and arm pinching (that one was me to get them out the room. I warned them first though I am not completely evil bwuahahaha) Unfortunately they got back in the room before the boyfie got in and one knocked me and I spilt nail varnish remover on the painted walls. Hence the boyfie cleaning the walls. He turned the sponge green and the water went really green

This is it when it muted down a bit, was bright green at first!

But at least he has nice and clean walls now!!
After dinner we spent the evening playing 2 player arcade games like Metal Slug, it was so much fun!! We played a couple of these side scrolling games as plane fighters and I died a lot but got the high score and also won 2/3 on a maze game!! Then we played Deus Ex for a bit and headed to bed! So Monday wasn't so boring for me this time!!

Okay thats me done, Kitty out!

Weekends are for bike rides

Saturday
Saturday we didn't really do much as there was no gas, so I sat around in my PJs and we did stuff on the laptops and computer and boyfie built a coffee table! Had a real late bath and then sat down and he scared me silly with Doom 3 and then we played Deus Ex!!

Sunday

On Sunday, it was a nice sunny day, so boyfie turned to me and said, do you want to go for a bike ride. Now you might remember that I can't ride a bike and he was trying to teach me last week, but I was still falling off a bit. Now yesterday,  I got on the bike while he was tidying up a bit before we go out and rode a little round the garden, managing not to fall off and to take a corner I kept crashing into!! With a little bit of confidence, I took the bike out onto the square and practised there and the first go, I managed to ride round the little square!! I had a big grin on my face and was so happy, I could ride a bike again!! So we proceeded to go for a bike ride...a six mile bike ride to the garden centre and back. Boy what a way to reintroduce yourself back into biking!! My knees were aching and my butt is so sore today!! But it was worth it and I want to go bike riding everyday (not six miles though!) At the Garden Centre we picked up a drink and a slice of cake then went looking for plants. I picked out one and my boyfie got two more, to put in his room! When we were cycling back, my legs were starting to go a bit like jelly so I had to walk for a bit, but it was so much fun riding a bike again! And a lot of exercise haha! Didn't take my camera with me but took some pictures when I got home of the plants and also the sky outside, which has been only a little bit cloudy when we were cycling, but had clouded over after we got back.

I picked the one in the pink/purple pot he is going to look after it for me! He picked the red potted one

This is the other one he picked and the spikey one in the background, he bought ages ago!

When I was a kid I used to think these beams of light were to let the souls of something dead into heaven or to let angels come down to earth!

ALIEN LASER BEAMS RUN FOR YOUR LIFE (or just a negative picture hur hur hur)

Sunday night we just ate our dinner of salmon topped with chilli and corriander with mixed veg and smiley faces and played Deus Ex!!

Fridays Post with shoes, ASDA and Toads!!

Hello ladies!! I hope you had a good weekend!! I did, it was especially nice warm weather! On Friday it was cloudy but it was warm, so warm I didn't need the jeans I was going to wear so I ended up going out like this:

Dress from Peacocks (I think), Cardigan from Select, Brown belt from Primarni (I think)

In the morning my boyfriends cats greet me as I am the first up and they are hungry!! His mum usually feeds them in the morning but if they are particulary hungry and yelling for food, I will feed them!!

This is Lolli (so named by boyfies little sister (Lollipop)

This is Cushca or Cush for short (No photos please is what shes saying haha!)

Both cats are very pretty I think and I adore them to bits!! Lolli is just coming up to three years and Cushca is a year and a half, they are Mother and Daughter, the father was a cat called Cobe but because he isnt neutered, he keeps running away!! He came back for a day last week looking all scruffy and matted but we couldn't keep him in long enough to get him sorted and he hasn't come back again!! He is a black long haired cat so he needs brushing and stuff! As you can see Cush has Lolli's fur patterning, but takes after Cobe in body shape and face shape and the long coat!!
I got my AS Results Friday as well but I only got two C's so the less said about that the better haha!!

Little sister with Lolli, she just got up!

When my boyfie got home, he got ready and then we went into town!! On the bus of course, I know the buses in Hull like I know the buses in Portsmouth!! We passed this quaint little shop that told dolls houses and all the little bits to go with it!

I want a Dolls House D:

He wouldn't let me take a picture of him so I took a sneaky one:

Lovely angle 8D

Once we were in town I decided to check out New Look for some shoes I wanted. Not only did they have the ones I wanted they had BETTER ONES that were a fiver more but stuff it, its winter shoes!! I shall show you them shoes later!! After looking around the shops, we walked to our friends house (which kinda too like half an hour) and on the way I got a picture with one of the 'Larkin with Toads' project!

Punkphibian!!

Also, check out this cool burnt out building! Its a shame they put a massive sky advert infront of it >:(

When  we met up with one of our friends who had walked up to meet us, we went to get something to eat as we hadn't had any lunch! We went in to subway but I don't like it AND it was sweltering in there, so we left our friend and went to the chippy next door! The subway our friend got was the Spicy Italian and I swear it was just all meat!!

Our friend checking out the menu

A big meat filled (squashed) sub!

The chippy ~ Pacific Catch

Mmmmm fish with chips and gravy!!

I always get chips with gravy when I am up north as you don't get it down south for some weird reason (cause souther chippies suck?) Its soooo nice, the best thing to go with chips EVER!!
On the way I saw this sign:

Surely thats advertising!

We got to our friends house and I finished off my lunch before telling our other friend to let his dog out!! The poor thing has just had his balls chopped off and had a big cone, but that didnt stop him jumping all over us!

Boyfie is mauled

He is such a cutey though, but his nails don't half need trimming! They are sharp and I was left with scratches on my legs! I will let him off though:

Can't stay mad at this face!

The friends have a car so we all proceeded to go to ASDA (Friday's is pay day and shopping day, me and the boyfie always go shopping Friday both food and other)

Just incase you don't know what ASDA looks like hur hur hur

YAY FOR 24 HOUR cause by the time we got there it was like half seven!! It may look forbodingly cloudy but it was still warm!!

£55's worth of shopping that is! Just for me and the boyfie! I should of taken it after our friend opened the boot, there was NO room with their shopping already in there!

We then proceeded to cross the road and drive to McDonalds, where our friends bought large meals (they are fatties haha) and me and my boyfie got a Mars milkshake between us (because I wanted to try it). We then went to our friends 'spot of shame' where they eat their McDonalds, rather than in the resturant (which was packed) or in the carpark (where the boyfie proceeded to make one of our friends drop his glass!) I was taking pictures with my flash and one of our friends thought it was lightning and proceeded to stick his head out the window to watch for more. I thought he was joking at first but when we realised he was being serious we all burst out laughing!!

Greedy so and sos

The face of embarrasment. No, there was no lightning only a southerner with a camera!

Our friends arn't scary at all...honest!

This big scary box thing was though, kept flapping in the wind

After they finished their McDonalds, they drove us home where we sat in the boyfies room and laughed about stuff for about half an hour and I put on my new shoes and took pictures!! They are my Autumn/Winter shoes!! Fake suade and fleece lining mmmmm gonna be warm!

Mine and our friends feet

You can have them down like this (they have poppers to keep the sides down)

Or done up like this!

I love these shoes so much and the heel is chunky and not to high so they are comfy to walk in!! The fleece lining is soft and warm so I hope these will last me through the winter months!!

Okay thats enough of our Friday and of picture spam, need to do the weekend blog!!
