New year and a new start


So i will firstly start by apologising for my absence of reviews and written blogs. Unfortunately i was called to have surgery, one i had been awaiting 4 year's for.....the day finally came. 

However there were complications and i was on a ventilator in ITCU. Thankfully i was taken off within 24 hours but very sedated and on a special humidified Oxygen given via my nose for a further 5 days. 

I have asthma (other health issues i wish to remain private) and surgery is always a risk even to the most healthly of people.
I came home with a community team whom i trust and long story short, i will need 3-4 months recovery. I will need further surgery and i maybe gone again in March and then July. (Too far ahead to worry about).

Here was the current high fashion within ITU and the humidified oxygen i fondly came to name "worm". (The wet paper towels kept me cool as the warm oxygen, well made me warm lol)  

So now 2016 will have many items from the USA, as i was blessed to have such kind friend's. There get well gift's when i came home were quite overwhelming, as were the gifts off my friends in the UK. 

So as a quick look at what we have to look forward too, i think more pictures are called for. 
- A lovely present off my best friend. 

New drugstore product's for 2016

And there is much more to show and my first review is going to feature the makeup line of Joan Collin's. 


She has called it Timeless beauty and she is an icon. 


Reviewing the foundation plus other beautiful product's from the line. 


So i wish you all a beautiful and blessed Christmas and New year. I look forward to seeing you in 2016.

Books for 2014 with a difference



My year is starting with engaging in some books that challenge you. Now the first book I've bought is called "Wreck your Journal" by Keri Smith. A book that encompasses and challenges you to break the boundaries. Certain pages I've seen have made me feel a little ansy. I have always loved books and to deface some pages will push me. However I'm excited by the book, I will keep you updated with regular book updates. Plus also pictures with the pages i have completed. My blog is my hobby like reading and I love keeping my mind active. As I don't have many months left on my blog till I sign off for a while. I am letting you into what keeps my mind going when I face the endless hospital appointments.


Now my second book is called "2014 Create your amazing year in life workbook" by Leonie Dawson. 


Which is a adult workbook and looks very cute inside, plus has a array of different pages to complete. I love workbooks as they are a great way too keep your mind active. I'm awaiting my copy to arrive with baited breath as I can't wait to get stuck in. 


Above are some of the pages and with over 100 activities, it's something I can imagine will keep me very mentally stimulated. I prefer reading to watching tv or doing mundane puzzles that get boring after a while. I will be doing the life sections as I don't have a buisness to plan for so this will all be life based. 

Are there any books your reading this year ? Do you like activity based books? 




Where have i been ?

Many of us use makeup as we have a passion or or it is nessesity of our daily life. For me it is a mixture of things. It is one of those ...
