    Purple today, gone tomorrow

    We all know I like to change it up rather frequently when it comes to my hair. Cut or colour, I’ve pretty much had everything under the sun! Last month I went purple. I was going for the pastel, lilac colour so my stylist just covered it in straight purple dye. It came out pretty…

  • Beautiful Fridays: A Hair Raisin’ Idea (& LOTS of pics!)

    I started getting grey hair when I was in middle school, so about 12 years old. My natural hair colour is very dark brown, so it was quite noticeable and everyone would comment on it. I used to tell the other kids it was Halloween hair spray that hadn’t washed out… Jump ahead to 16…

  • Plans

    My lack of motivation is freaking me out. I’ve become complacent. Part of me wants to be happy now, to have confidence in myself now, to love myself NOW. Another part of me wants to hate myself. And the rest of me wants the willpower and motivation to kick the other parts’ asses. To push…

  • I’m not giving up, I’m just giving in

    My, my this week has been a killer. It certainly didn’t go as planned for me. I spent Monday night and Tuesday in Belfast with a few colleagues for our annual meetings, which thankfully all went smoothly. But once I landed at Bristol and was enroute home at 9pm… that’s when things start going badly.…

  • Frustration, party of one?

    That’s me! I am so unbelievably-can’t-even-put-into-words excited about going on holiday Thursday. I haven’t had any (substantial) time off work since New Year’s so a break is more than needed, especially after the insane 3 months I’ve had. It feels like I haven’t looked up from my monitors at work in absolute ages, and that’s…

  • Living for the Weekend (and Lots of Books)

    That’s totally how I feel lately! I’m so glad tomorrow is Friday and that the weekend will finally be here. We aren’t doing a lot really. Hubby’s dad is coming from Spain for a few days so it will be really nice to see him and I’m having my hair done, another foil session and…

  • OK Then.

    It’s been a roller coaster of a week, this one. It started out alright, Wednesday was bad (re: last post), Thursday was better (I had some good news, but can’t really say here what it is) and today has been so-so. I started my period this morning (yes, yes, I know.) which is both good…

  • Another chop!

    Last year at the end of May I did a drastic, drastic thing. I cut my hair. All that hair I cut off was 4lbs!! Well, after a year of growing it out I’ve cut it again!

  • One of those bad times again…

    Jack Johnson is singing “it’s always better when we’re together” to me. Yes, that’s true but I’m sure I could do without the current drama. No details will be shared here, but sometimes lately I wonder if it was all really worth it. Hubby has been somewhat attentive this week and listened to me bitch…
