Day 6 - Describe a Dark/Turbulent Moment In Your Life #26 Day Blog Challenge

The darkest moment in my whole entire life was when I was told told that I could not have children. It was a real slap in the face as I had always wanted to be a Mum and my whole plans and dreams for the future had to change.  The love and support from my Hubby during these times has made me love him even more and I know he is with me for me and not for my child bearing abilities. All I can say is it has made us a stronger couple, I know a lot of relationships wouldn't make it through what we have and I thank my lucky stars every day that I met my Hubby.

Day 5 - A Spontaneous Moment in Your Life That Turned Out To Be Fantastic!!! #26DayBlogChallenge

A spontaneous Moment in your life that turned out to be fantastic!!!!!!

I have been racking my brains trying to come up with something to write for this question. I guess I am not that spontaneous.

 I then thought of my birthday we climbed a mountain which was totally planned and then after that we just went for a drive and we ended up coming across a strawberry farm. where we picked the biggest juiciest strawberries and had a grand old time. Sometimes the best plans are not to have plans.

 

 

 

Day 4 - Draw Yourself! #26DayBlogChallenge

Ok, I am not a artist. I look like such a miserable old cow in my picture. To lighten the mood I will tell you about something funny that happened to me at work today. I have a job in finance/customer service and today it was crazy town busy. I asked a member for their member card and when they gave it to me I said, " love you" instead of thankyou. I wanted to crawl under the table and hide, I then explained that I meant to say thank you and it had been a long day. Thank goodness she had a sense of humour and had a laugh about it. Well that being said it has been a long day and I am off to bed now. I'm so tired maybe that's why my artwork is such a disaster.

Have a lovely weekend, enjoy yourselves

Day 3 - I Am Currently Addicted To This TV Show #26DayBlogChallenge

I must confess, I am a reality television whore. I watch all of them Big  Brother, The Batchelor, ANTM, Project Runway and Amazing Race but my all time favourite is Survivor. I love watching how people cope with the crazy position they have been put in. While still trying to play a mind game and do extreme challenges. I love seeing the cocky contestants fail and the  people that you presume will be crap thriving. 

I have just posted recently about Orphan Black. It's my all time favourite programme of this year. If you haven't read my previous post it follows outsider, orphan and street-wise chameleon Sarah. After witnessing a woman's suicide, Sarah assumes the stranger's identity - who happens to look just like her. Expecting to solve all her problems by cleaning out the dead woman's savings, Sarah is instead thrust headlong into a kaleidoscopic mystery as she realizes the dizzying truth - she and the dead woman are clones. As Sarah searches for answers, she discovers the chilling fact that there are more people like her out there - genetically identical individuals who were planted in unsuspecting birth parents and nurtured in completely different circumstances. With no idea who created the clones, she'll need to discover the reason in a hurry as an assassin is killing them one by one.

Day 2 of Blogger Challenge, What's In Your Makeup Bag

What's in my makeup bag well first let me say, I am really not a Little Miss Makeup, I lost most of my makeup a month ago. Hubby and I were cleaning our teeth at the same time and Mindy Cat was a little bit excited to see what was going on at the sink. So he jumped up on the sink and knocked my tray of makeup off. Needless to say all my eye shadows and blush smashed all over the bathroom floor.

 Right now all I have is

Estee Lauder Double Wear/ Pure Beige

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer

Rimmel Blush/ Pink Rose

Natio Mineral Eye shadow/ Subtle Glamour

Estee Lauder Tester Pack free with purchase

Diorshow Black Out Mascara

Avon metallic liquid eyeliner /Plum Craze

Australis eye pencil/Smoke

Revlon Lip Gloss Number 14

Rimmel Kate Lipstick Number 22

My foundation is about to run out so any recommendations for a new one would be greatly appreciated. I just need one that lasts all day and helps to minimise pores.

Hump day today, I hope you all enjoy the rest of your week xxx



Two Birds - Inspiration Monday

 I thought I would play along with Two Birds Inspiration Monday. All you have to do is put your spin on a celeb outfit. Below is my version, i'm in love with the pussy cat bow on this blouse. You can go to Two Birds blog and have a look at how everyone else has interpreted the outfit.

I'm also going to play along with Jade at The Life and Times of Jade Lee Wright who has started a 28 day blog challenge which I have decided to join. All you have to do is follow the list below.

Since I have already taken a photo of myself here is a description of my rather bland day.

The alarm buzzed at 7am and I hit the snooze button twice, it's hard to get up when you have a cat spooning you on one side and a Husband spooning you on the over side. I quickly had a shower, then I had my oats with honey and cinnamon with a green tea for Brekkie and made a healthy lunch. I rushed to put my head on. I had no time left to do my hair so I stuck it up in a pony tail. Which I do most days as I run out of time and patience with my unruly mop of hair. I kissed my boys goodbye and headed off to work.
I drove to work and traffic was rather poo and that's a nice way to describe it. I turned up at my branch and served a few customers, went on morning tea. Which consisted of a pear, banana, ginger and apple smoothie and a handful of nuts. When I came back from morning tea I was told I had to go to another branch as someone had gone home sick. So off I went in my car the traffic was lovely and I actually found a perfect car park which is normally unheard of at that time of day. I served a few more customers and then went on lunch consisting of  Chicken and salad. A really good salad I may add full of lots of healthy goodies. I went back to work, served a few more customers and then drove home. Where I immediately sat down and started this blog post. While my butter chicken is reheating in the microwave. Reading this back I realise the highlight of my day is eating and I cant really see anything wrong with that nom, nom, nom. I have to go the butter chicken is ready.
I hope your day was a little more exciting than mine, I am so not a writer so I hope my bland day hasn't bored you to tears xxxx
