Q and A Time

I absolutely love reading other people’s Q and A’s so I thought I’d do my own. Here are some questions I was asked…

Why did you start blogging?

Ever since I was a little girl I’ve been so in love with writing. So when I found out about blogging and others reading what you write I just had to join in this fab community. Never looked back.

What do you do to unwind?

I think putting on your pjs after a nice soak in the bath, curling up in a blanket with a hot water bottle and some eye candy on Tele is just my idea of unwinding.

What’s one thing you wish you could have told your younger self?

That no matter what life throws at you, don’t let it get you down. Be brave and plod on the best way you can.

How long have you and your best friend been best friends?

Oh my, we have been friends our whole life. Well I’m 8 months older than Jessica but our mums have been great friends even before we were both born. Our nicknames came 15 years later, hers is Trev and Mine is Bertie 🙈

What’s one item of clothing that you will never wear again even if it’s come back in fashion?

Oh that is easy – A shell suit. I mean I adored my pink one at the time but to give my honest opinion… it was a hideous item of clothing and let’s hope they don’t come round a second time. Sorry mum lol.

Do you regret anything?

Yes I regret losing my virginity when I did with who I did. If only I could turn back the clock I’d definitely not have made that mistake. Generally I try and live with no regrets.

Man crush / Woman crush?

Oooo Colin Firth and Cameron Diaz. This hasnt changed for years.

One beauty product you can’t live without?

I’d say foundation simply because you can just put a bit of it on to give you a bit of a colour if you’re looking tired or a bit pale or need to conceal some spots.

Physically, what do you look for in a potential boyf?

I’ve always looked at eyes first they tell so much and a nice jaw line (yeah I know I’m a bit weird)

Your moto in life?

Live Laugh Love

Its something i think we all should do every day. Live life to its fullest, laugh, its the best medicine. Lastly love with all your heart.

I hope you enjoyed finding out a bit more about me.

Til next time my beauts xx

Being Bisexual is not a phase your going through

These colours are what represents the bisexual community. Its something i have always been up for chatting about and finding out more about.

From my recent posts you can see i am most definately into men and i have only ever been in relationships with men.

From about 14 years old i knew that i was also attracted to women. But if i had to say back then i was bisexual i didn’t know what it properly meant and you definitely would have been picked on. Shame on people who just didn’t get it. I was already having the worst time being bullied because of my spotty skin so i just kept it under cover.

Being bi you don’t have to of had sex with a woman, to of even kissed a woman. The attraction that you feel for a man, you get for a woman too.

LETS ALSO GET THIS STRAIGHT ( excuse the pun)

You don’t instantly fancy every woman and man you see. In fact i generally don’t even know the women i find attractive. You can be in a relationship with a man and still be bi you aren’t automatically straight and vice versa.

Sexual orientation shouldn’t have to be labelled these days and also when you say i think I’m bi, people say oh its just a phase…is being straight a phase too then?

Be who you want to be and love who you want to love too.

Glad to of got that off my chest.

Yes i bloody would, wouldn’t you?

I am quite partial to looking at a silver fox…I just love it when a man is greying I always think you are definitely going to look better with age. These are a handful of the ones that make me go mmm when I see them on TV. Well if I could jump through the screen who bloody knows haha.

Kevin Costner – I bloody love him in The Bodyguard. His eyes are really tantalising in it and I think he has aged lovely.

Martin Kemp: The day he went grey was the day I thought Mr Kemp, you are actually quite a good looking chap.

Alec Baldwin: Since watching My Sisters Keeper he has been one of my fav silver foxes and to top it off he’s funny too.

Paul Hollywood: He really is this delish in real life I met him for a meet and greet as a birthday pressie. A day I’ll never forget.

Phillip Schofield: My Weekday eye candy. Seen him in a Loincloth when he played Joseph. I was 3 rows back and 10 years old. I most definitely would have appreciated it now.

Richard Gere: Like a fine wine, Just gets better with age. Love him in all his films especially Pretty Woman.

There you go there’s an insight into my thoughts on the lovely silver foxes in this world.

Whos your favourite silver fox of all time?

Did you not feel anything?

You know last month
The guy i told you i was going to stop being in contact with because he wasn’t making me feel special…silly me thought if i just hang on a little longer he may change.

Yesterday evening i sent him a message that i deserve better but thanks for the laughs because theres no denying that we were always laughing. I didn’t get a reply or anything. So today i done the done thing and blocked him.

I am not a shallow person by any means but it’ll stop it all together. I deserve someone who sees my flaws and takes me just as i am, and puts in the effort that he just didn’t. It was a one sided kinda thing. I should have known that he was not the one as the months went by but 6 months and not even asking me to be his girl…i think i just liked the little attention he did pay me.

What’s that saying there’s plenty more fish in the sea. I guess having a disability i think who’s gonna want me in a wheelchair with all my other added problems…i think i have my answer, The right one.

Hello March

Yay its the 1st of March today

I know everyone has been saying their snowstorm hit a few days ago ours in the south hasn’t quite settled yet. Give it until the end of the day it will be a lovely blanket out there. I want a storm named after me, mind you it would be a mixture of sunshine for my happy times, showers for the emotional moments and thunder for when PMT hits.

So I like to think that all the crap things that may have occurred in your February or even your January can now be put away and start this month a fresh. With fresh goals, adventures to go on, people to visit, dreams to conquer, the list is endless.

The things I do want to do this month is:

To meet someone who for the past few weeks has been making me smile – I know his family so its not as if I will be meeting a complete stranger. He doesn’t mind that I am not in the best of health which is lovely that he accepts me as I am I just hope that something romantic becomes of it. He is 12 years older than me but I prefer someone a little older than me anyway.
I want to buy some bits for my bedroom as I hope in the next month to be back sleeping upstairs as we are having a stairlift put in. Bless my legs. So I am going to make sure my room is full of happy things so I look forward to coming up to it.
Start doing some more DIYs as I really like making things I see on Pinterest and give it a go myself. Think a trip to Hobbycraft or a spree online maybe in order. I’ll of course share with you my makings and step by step of how you can do it too.

I hope you all have some things that you want to accomplish in March – if not get out your pen and paper and start planning.

Stay wrapped up warm.

Til next time…

He loves me, he loves me not

I’m sat here with soppy love songs blasting out of my iPhone, this playlist to be exact…

Takes me back to my school days of writing ‘Holly 4 Tom 4eva’ on my rough book, doing he loves me loves me not with a daisy and getting super excited when it landed on he loves me. The crushes on the older lads that you could only ever dream or write about. There’s plenty of entries in my diaries in the 90s of days I saw my crush and how my heart skipped a beat and all that crap…its so funny thinking back at it now.

However, I didn’t have a proper boyfriend until year 10. He was also who I lost my virginity to which was not how I planned to do it and be slightly underage but peer pressure got to me and well it happened…thought I was pregnant and told my Mum. Ooo the disappointment…soon after I told her my period came on the bloody irony literally.

I wrote about my love life here if you fancy a read…

I am however very single at the moment. I know what I want in a relationship – its just I need to find someone who can accept that yes my legs don’t work properly 90% of the time and I need loving that little bit more, who enjoys snuggling up but equally go on fun adventures..oh dear this sounds like I’m making an ad for a dating site…i’ll stop now haha.

Tomorrow is Valentines Day and I hope you enjoy it whether you are happily single or with someone who makes your world rock.

It’s been nice reminiscing. People say don’t look back but some of your most favourite memories are there.

Til next time…
