Get lost acne!

Have you ever had adult acne? I get the odd spot like most people, but I can’t imagine having full on adult acne – looking like a poor teenager suffering through that awkward time. I think I’d be really annoyed at it if I did have it because I’d feel like I’d done my part with the acne already and it was time for it to get lost!

 

Embarrassing bodies

Why oh why do these people go on this show, really? They either have nerves of steel or absolutely no shame and I am going with the latter.

If I had private issues I would hate going to the doctor full stop, nevermind doing it knowing the nation is watching – why does the world need to know if I need to find cures for hemorrhoids or if I have inverted nipples?

I saw the show for the first time a few weeks ago, and it was my first and last time as a viewer. Yuck.

 

First Communion

I just got asked to help someone find a good place to get high quality but affordable first communion invitations, it seems like a bit of an odd request to make of me since I am not Catholic and have no experience with organizing a communion but apparently my friends and family think I am the ‘go to girl’ for all things Internet shopping related. I suppose it’s a compliment really :)

 

Weekend plans

We are going to pick up some faux wood blinds for the conservatory at the weekend and I can’t wait, we have needed some for a while but kept being lazy and not going to get them – my fiance likes to spend his weekends not doing much and I don’t blame him because he works hard – but this weekend we are moving our behinds and getting them :)

 

Ping Pong!

I have just been looking at ping pong tables, our friends have decided they want a games room in the basement of their house and have given me (as dedicated bargain queen among our friends) the job of finding various items at the best possible prices. They want a ping pong table, pool table, a juke box and a few arcade games machines.

I’d better be bloody welcome over whenever I want :)

 

Young and in love

I just did a Memphis job search for my niece to see what’s about, she’s thinking of moving out there to be with her boyfriend that she met online – sounds a bit scary to me as she’s only been with him for 6 months and they’ve only met up 4 times but you know, young people in love, there’s no talking sense to them haha

 

Bingoooooooooooooo!

I went through a major Bingo stage a few years ago, I would literally be playing it whenever I was on the computer. I started signing up to Bingo sites through cashback offers I was finding – it’s basically where a bingo site offer cashback if you deposit and wager a certain amount and most of the time in order to make them really tempted the cashback rate is as much as if not more than the amount you have to deposit. So before even starting to play you are already quids in, then you obviously have the chance of winning even more.

I even had a little book full of the names of all the sites I had already signed up to, through which cashback site and how much I was in profit. I play on all the big sites like Quicksilver Games and Mecca – but also loads of lesser known ones like BingoLiner as well.

I never had any really big wins in all the time I was playing, I think the most I ever won at once was £40 – but it all added up and was a lot of fun.

I think I will have to start doing it again :)

 

Don’t need it, want it!

I was thinking of getting an oximeter for home use, so that I can test my pulse really simply. They are pretty neat actually, you just clip them on to your finger and then sit back and wait for the results to come in. I don’t suppose I really need, one not really really but I want one and it’s hard to resists when I want something!

 

Soz Mum!

I was just looking around for some information on insurance online for my mum, I told her I would look into it for her ages ago but keep forgetting – she asks me every time we speak if I have done it yet and when I say no she says it doesn’t matter but you can tell on the inside she’s thinking “well bloody get on with it!” hehe
