Check In Tuesday #10



Hey Guys, how are you all doing? I cant believe we are on another Tuesday already?! Seriously where are the days going? We are almost in the middle of the month.

So here is another Check In with you guys from the past week:

  • Driving Progress Report: I have been going out and about in my mums car the past few days just getting all comfortable in her car and I'm slowly growing on my confidence. I am actually really enjoying it even though sometimes I do get nervous cause I'm in the car with my mum and I want to make her proud.
  • I went to see The Fault In Our Stars on Friday with my girlies, I read the book so I knew what I was letting my poor emotional self in for.....my goodness!! My eyes were still suffering on Saturday from all the tears!! I thoroughly recommend seeing it. If you can read the book first (its one those quick reads) do it, then see the film. Or see the film then read the book. Either way they are both awesome.
  • Carrying on The Fault In Our Stars (well kinda), I have been listening to a lot of music lately on my iPod. My current faves have to be The Fault In Our Stars Soundtrack my fave song on it has to be by Kodaline called All I Want (you need to listen to this beautiful song and watch the music video for it) and I really like Charli xcx song Boom Clap. I been listening to Ed Sheeran's new album too and of course Lana Del Rey (love her), that woman can sing. Her new album Ultraviolence is just beautiful.
  • Does anyone else just get paid then feel skint (poor) like the next day? haha honestly I just been paid and I have so much things happening this month that I feel the beauty treats are going to have to be put on hold this month. I have been raiding my cupboards and found a few forgotten gems so been using some of them in my routine lately. Might even blog about some of them.
  • I have a new addiction people and its youtube but more importantly its a certain channel, it s The Sacconejoly's!! They are this family that lived in Ireland they have just moved over to England and they have a girl who is the cutest little toddler ever, an adorable baby boy and 6 dogs!! They vlog every single day! Showing what they get up to in their general family life! I love watching vlogs and this family are my new favourites, Check them out HERE. 
  • I been feeling pretty happy and lucky the past few days on just my life in general. I'm so lucky to have some pretty awesome friends I honestly don't know what I would do without them I love them and they know who they are! I love my little poppet aka Gordee (boyfriend) he never fails to make me smile even when I have a down day. And last but not least my family, they have made me who I am today, I have had many ups and downs in my little life but I feel that they have made me who I am today which is a pretty happy and positive person. Thank You and I Love You.
That's all from me this week, I hope you guys have enjoyed this post. I haven't done much really apart from cry at films haha.

Be back tomorrow with another post.

Check In Tuesday #9



Wow its been a while since I done a little Check In Tuesday with you beautiful bunch. My life hasn't been that hectic really, there's been some changes at my work recently so I been working 9-5 a lot and when that place is hot and busy that you constantly running round on your feet it makes you sleepy, all you want to do is cook dinner chill and go to sleep. However I told my self I need to be more productive when I finish work so with that in mind I have been throwing myself right back in to the blog and gosh I have missed it. I thought one the things I would do with you was my little catch up posts I do once a week called Check In Tuesday which was a little run down on anything in my life. So here it goes, hope you enjoy.

  • One the things I been doing more which I am pretty proud of myself for is drink more water! My plan is to try and have at least 2 litres of water a day and so far I have been doing pretty good, it has really helped and improved my skin so far.
  • As you may or may not know I am learning to drive, I passed my theory test a few weeks ago, Yay me!! That its now time to think about booking the actual test which if I'm honest scares me so much. I'm not the most confident of people that I tend to put myself down by thinking there's no way I am ever going to be a driver and I'm never going to understand certain things. Well in fact the past few weeks since I been using the Bachs Rescue Remedy Spray my confidence in myself has really improved my instructor has been very impressed and if anything that has helped me gain a little more confidence too. My mum has even added me on to her car insurance that I can now go out and about with her which is also helping me to gain confidence and progress.
  • Gordee and I have started watching Breaking Bad again and we are loving it, forgot how addictive it is. You cant just watch the one episode and cause its on dvd its so easy to just watch a whole season in a day, but we are trying to make it last and spread it out as much we can.
  • I had a huge clear out on my iPod the other week. I had been meaning to do it for aaages and its something I always ended up forgetting to do but the other day I finally plugged it in to the laptop and had a good clear out deleting songs that I never listen too anymore, making playlists of good songs I forgot I even had. It was such a massive achievement when I had finished now I cant stop listening to my music on it without  having to skip lots of songs.

That's all I really have to say on this Check In, like I said I haven't done much recently other than work work work but I want to keep this up as a regular thing and even share with you some things that others might not find so boring that and it just lets you get to know me that bit more.

I hope you enjoyed this post and are looking forward to next weeks one. Leave a comment if you would like to and I will reply.

Thank you for reading

Check In Tuesday #3

Hello Fellow bloggers and readers hope we are all well and happy.

That's another Tuesday almost over with over here in Scotland so here I am sharing with you a few things I been up to and loving or hating right now.



  • The weather over here in the UK has been utter pants and my thoughts for those poor folk down in England who's homes have been terrorised by these storms causing mass flooding. I have family down in England and I was rather worried about them all but I was informed that they were all safe and the weather hasn't affected them. We have been pretty lucky where I am in Scotland that we haven't had any bad storms or snow (touch wood). 
  • I love coconut oil!! Okay so recently my scalp hasnt been itself and its been bit dry and flaky. 2 sunday nights ago I asked on the #bbloggers chat whats a good treatment hoping for some cheap answers and wow there was so many to choose from but the most popular item was coconut oil. So I went out and bought myself some read the instructions on how to use it as a scalp treatment and my gosh was I impressed with these results. I might do a blog post on this after trying it a few more times. 
  • Twinings have some new green tea flavours coming out and I am dying to get my hands on them.
  • I'm still trying to grow my nails, there was some peeling and breaking so I have cut them back down to stumps haha hoping that they will grow nice and healthy without breaking.
  • Is it sad that I'm excited about buying a new make up bag?! Well I am and I will do a blog post on it as its a pretty special looking make up bag.
  • I am still on a Vampire Diaries binge on Netflix and I have just finished season 3! Oh my gosh sooooo much drama!!!
  •  I have been slacking on reading my book lately (I blame netflix) but I am determined to get back into it and try and read a bit each night an hour before sleepy time.
  • Music I am all about the girls this week. Our tickets came for Katy Perry in May and you may or may not know I AM SOOOOO EXCITED!!!! So other than her I have been listening to Lana Del Rey, have you heard her song for the Maleficent movie? She sounds amazing. Taylor Momsen is back with The Pretty Reckless and my gosh she sounds awesome in their new song Heaven Knows and lastly Shakira!!!! Im not so much a fan of Rihanna anymore but these 2 together make one heck of a tune Cant Remember To Forget You is on repeat a lot while I'm doing the housework its just so catchy.
What have you guys been up to? Any music your loving and I can check out let me know

That's all from me today
