These past few days have been no different. Lots to think about as we head in to the new year and I even made a video about it which will be going live on Christmas day. I'm also really hoping to find time to create a flashback video for the past year, as I love those! Adore looking back on memories. Never been any different. Before this digital era I would goto Boots to get my photos printed within an hour (I also used Truprint, do they still exist?) and I was overwhelmed to see the snaps we had taken. Spending quite literally hours pouring over them again and again. However, I won't promise you or myself that this flashback to 2017 video will happen as there is uni work looming and it has to take some priority (as well as taking care of the family of course!). Rest assured, I will be posting within a blog post if I can create it!
What have I been doing these past few days? Ok, it's been great actually. Filling me with joy. Just today, my beauty therapist said she can see my sparkle coming back! YES! That's definitely a want and need of mine. That spark will be back in full swing in no time, this I know. Being honest, I do wonder if the can of St Tropez mousse I used might have something to do with it.
Mum telling me, "You look really wishy washy." (whatever that means), prompted me to get out the ol fake tan and try and at least look like I don't have the toxic crohns thing going on. (Still not been right since I was rushed to hospital recently but seeing Gasteroenterology next week- and no it doesn't just mean I poo lots - it's inflammatory. Those who know, know but I will write a blog early in the new year all about Crohns over on my nutrition website.)
So back to it. I went for session at the garage to try and sort Nathans car. We had a sneaky breakfast on the way home at Frankie and Benny's and thankfully it was super busy with not quite enough staff. So we had lots of time to chat which was absolutely lovely. Putting the world to rites, discussing the future of him, me, us as a family and all that jazz.
This frankie and bennys christmas straw made me grin :) |
Jasmine and I spent some time car shopping at Audi. This was an exciting thing to do.
Driving to Tunbridge Wells through the trees reminded me of my wonderful times in Scotland and Wales. I love a good tree lane drive! While we were there I was tossing up between two cars and still remain undecided. One was very pretty but Jas reminded me I was there to find something bigger to fit mums wheelchair in. Hmm, true. So I started looking at the Q range. Loved the bells and whistles inside but I'm still crunching the numbers and Christmas kind of took over...
Me looking tired but being bored with myself, adding a splash of colour to my hair. |
Days gone by. Loved him then. Love him now. |
We will speak again soon my friends but for now, enjoy the build up to the big day
Love as always
