9 Happy Things This Week

24th May 2015

In no particular order of business;

1. I finally got my nose pierced again, thank gawwddd. Last year I had to take it out while looking for jobs (well, didn’t have to, but it was so much easier), and same goes for my lip ring. This week I finally felt like I was getting back to my normal self by getting my nose done again. The lip ring will come back in a few weeks ๐Ÿ™‚ It’s weird how a small piece of metal makes me feel ‘myself’ again.

 

2. Spending more time with Gary, yay! I start a new part time job next week. But I’ve had time off, and going from full time to part time means we get a lot more time together, which I’m so thankful for. Gary works nights at the weekends, so we only have weekdays together really, so the less time I’m in work, the better. Kinda love this guy ๐Ÿ˜‰

 

3. Painting/Drawing/Designing/etc. As you all know I now take requests for designs; whether it be you want portraits done, blog headers, whatever, and this has meant I’ve spent soooo much time getting to paint and draw for you guys. I’m keen to share this work soon, but that’ll be a separate post very soon.

 

4. Lush. Recently I popped into the Lush Liverpool store and was greeted by the most awesome staff (not annoying like a lot of stores!) and genuinely felt welcomed. Especially because I got chatting to a lovely girl called Caitlin who gave Holly and I free products as part of their kindness scheme – wow! I got a free ‘Granny Takes A Dip’ which I’ve never tried before, yay! Unfortunately I bashed it by accident so by the time I got home it wasn’t really ‘photo ready’. But it’s still going to be awesome to try out soon!

 

5. More Lush! I also bought myself the Ickle Baby Bot, Pink Fun, Dorothy and Dragon Egg! – I haven’t tried any of these ones before and I am like a child at Christmas!

 

6. I’ve officially started my Tsum Tsum collection, eeep. I couldn’t resist picking up this cute Marie one when I peeked into the Disney store recently, she’s adorable. I can’t wait to add more soon!

 

7. This is probably the sweetest post of this post. When I recently met up with Holly (who you should all go follow!) she gifted me with this beautiful necklace set, saying it reminded her of me! This girl is SO damn nice, and knows me so well! Moon, stars, dainty cuteness, yes please and thank you. I’m so lucky to have met her!

 

8. So Kawaiii! ^__^ I officially put my first order into Blippo, and received the cutest package in the mail. The prices were really quite cheap, with free shipping too; so I was over the moon to satisfy my addiction to cute stationary and all things Kawaii. More soon probably..

 

9. And Gary again. Why? Why not. I bloody love this guy, he makes me happy every single day. (Awwww… sick bucket?)

What’s made you guys happy this week? ๐Ÿ™‚

 

around here happy life

    Your nose piercing does look amazing, I got mine pierced a year ago and that's how people would describe me! Ahah! It is amazing how something so little makes a big difference!

    Love Leah Xx

    We used one of the baby bot bathbombs in my son's bath – he loved it, but we then had to try and explain where the robot went, which was awkward!

    I'm so impressed and happy with how well your business is going just after starting! You really deserve it.

    I wish there was something small I could do to feel myself again. With all the mental stuff sometimes I'm not sure what I'm even like, like, underneath all the bullshit. It would be nice if I could get rid of all the acne scars, though. I think that physical thing would help a bit.

    Lots of cute things! Dragon's Egg is one of my favourite bath bombs from Lush, the colours it creates really make me smile. I love Blippo too, I really need to make a purchase finally as I often browse, see something cute and then forget to go back and get it once I have some money, so you've reminded me to invest in more kawaii cuteness! Loved this post, and the photos of you and Gary are so sweet too. – Tasha
