Back to Black

So this is my hair.
It has been every colour of the rainbow but i think now is the time to wash out my crazy, but beautiful, colours and head back to black.
My hair seriously needs a rest. From all the Hair dye it now feels like a horses' mane. :(

I think from now on, i will stick to wearing wigs or extensions if i want to add a bit of colour.
Im nearing my 30s in a couple of years, so i need to grow up and move on from my wild days.

"R.I.P to the girl you use to see, her days are over"

And here you have it. My Back to Black locks

Headplode

*Not my actual bath but similar. Thank you Google*

Today has been a day that has left me no choice but to get that candle and shove it right on my bathroom windowsill, with a tub of relax Radox.

First i had to get myself and my toddler dressed and ready within 10 minutes as i over slept my alarm so had little time for breakfast. We had to be up for a speech and language therapy session for my toddler.
Upon coming downstairs i noticed his dad on the xbox whilst my toddler is sat playing nicely covered in chocolate from head to toe!! I gave him a scrub and grabbed a milkshake then caught a taxi and just made it. Hows that for timing.

Then after the session i had to run for my bus, drop off my toddler at home then run and jump on another bus to an ADHD parenting class so for dinner i had.....Nada, zilch, nothing :(
At the group they thought that it would be wise putting a big tub of biscuits in front of me and im thinking
"Gosh i could just grab that tub and pour them deliscious mother fluffing biscuits right down my throat" but that would be insane, right? It would be wrong! I've got slimming world tomorrow and im determined to scrape that 3st loss before i head to Cumbria.
I was suppose to be listening to the group leader but all i did was daydream on how many ways i could eat a biscuit.

After a 2 and a half hours drooling, the session ended and i remembered it was weekly shop day so i had to catch another 2 buses to get to Asda and spent 4 hours buying groceries.....

I did at this point manage to get some grub but it was 30min wait for food........when the cafe owner told me i said, "Look im going to be straight with you, ive had a very long and hectic day and all i see is cake on show. i need proper food which i have had zero all day. Is there anything i can just eat now?" her reply..."chips sound good?"

"Yup love, chips will do me just fine"

Ok not the healthiest of options but was no where near the enough kcal intake that my daily allowence is suppose to be.

Those chips were amazing.....

Stuck in the 90s

You could get sweets for pennies but now that you cant people just chuck them on the floor. Nothing these days gets you anything for 1p.

As a child i never had the internet or a mobile phone. Instead, i spent my days watching cartoons and actually outside playing games like kerby, ballio, rounders.

"Ballio Ballio

who has got the Ballio,

Is she fat or is she thin

Or is she like a rolling pin"

I made dance moves up to the latest spice girl pop hit, wearing my tracksuit and ponytail because i was always sporty spice.

My Disney denim jacket was the shiz,

along with my ellesse trainers

"If only i could turn back time"

New Blog Dream Journal

Well the clue is in the title really....

I've started a new Blog called Dream-scape.

It is basically a dream diary...... of my dreams but i then decipher them.

Not many people are able to remember what they dreamt but i am one of the lucky few.
I wake in middle of R.E.M and because i keep pen and paper to hand, next to my bed, i quickly jot down what had just happened in my dream. Then later that day i completely forget what i had dreamt...until i reach for that paper then recall what had happened the night before, what feelings i had felt etc. Then it all makes sense. The colours, facial expressions, emotions, movements etc.

For example: When i am sad (or had an emotional day) i tend to hold it all in. Then when i sleep i start dreaming of dark murky water waves and thunder clouds the colour or grey and purple with lighhtning for anger.
Or another example is my happy dreams: Im either ice skating or singing and im always thin and sound or skate amazing.

Please have a read of my Dreamscape blog. I will try to update daily. Some of them are very strange and that is because i am a very troubled and emotional person.
