Any ideas on how to make this festival period more festival for a girl that's all alone. Second Christmas alone. I need some ideas for things to do. I've been watching Christmas films, decorated a little. Got lots of food. Might head to midnight mass this year 🤔
Thought I should upload these pictures of my gorgeous gown from my work meal from the start of the week. I hate how my headphones ruin the pics, but I was jamming out to some tunes whilst getting ready 😅
After years of working for a terrible company. That made me work ridiculous hours, more hours then stated in my contract. Treated me unfairly and let multiple accounts of sexual harrasment happen. I have now officially left. Signed my new job contract today 🙌
Just found out that every hot water bottle has a flower on it. The number in the middle was the year it was made. Around that number has 12 petals (one for each month of the year) In each petal there are 4 dots - indicating the week of the month that it was made.
Just cried in front of my siblings for the first time (like ever) I feel like my life is literally just falling a part. I have no idea how I am going to continue after this. Really just needing a hug from that one person 😞 really need some love sent my way.
Filled with a whole bunch of thoughts and feelings. I'm going to spend the weekend with family who I haven't seen in a while. I'm both nervous and excited 😬
Picking up my anxiety tablets today. So going to be taking them and antidepressants. I also start therapy in around 4 weeks time. Onwards and upwards people. 🙌
Thank you to everyone who followed me and helped me reach my target. I'm excited to follow all your adventures.
In the middle of following everyone back, so please be patient with me.
My annual reflection time. The start of the year I was recovering from a major bowel operation whilst having covid. I went to the Royal Albert Hall which was an incredible experience and I also enjoyed turning 23.
Anyone fancy adopting me 🤣 At the age of 22, my family have now officially disowned me. Mainly for the simple reason of leaving home at a young age, my choice to go to university. But also due to my health conditions. Got to love family.
It actually makes me so mad and upset that NHS ID was not accepted as a form of valid ID. Like these doctors and nurses work their backsides off. The Conservative government really do be hating the NHS.
Finding it a little hard to process. You weren't just a pet. You were my baby, my best friend, my rock. We've been through so much together. Thank you for a wonderful 3 years. May we meet again. 💛
If anyone is looking for a new Folk singer to listen to. I would highly recommend River Celt. Her voice is so celestial. Pure celtic, pagan vibes. The sun is currently shining bright, but I feel like I'm currently staring at the moon 🌙 and am at peace.
Actually bothered to get dressed up for the first time in months. I definitely noticed a difference. Been way more productive. Mental health was pretty okay today.
It's the small achievements 😌
Merry Christmas Everyone, except the anti-vaxxers, the homophobics, the transphobics, the racists, the sexist pigs, the brexiteers and those at Boris Johnsons Christmas Party last year 😊
So today is the day we find out who the next PM is Liz Truss or Rishi Sunak. I propose that it should be decided through a game of rock paper scissors. Give more legitimacy and a better mandate then if they were to win the campaign normally. 🤣🤣
I survived my first day back. Been off since the start of October.
Might sound vein, but I am honestly so proud of myself and my mental/physical health for not relapsing.
This is going to be the first Christmas alone. Not spending time with my family. I feel so lost and broken. Never really thought at this age, I would literally have nothing.
So yesterday we lost Gwen.
She had been with us since May, and when we got her, she was an adult. She loved sharing fruit and veg with us, sitting on our shoulders and having lots of snuggles. She also enjoyed watching the footie 🤣
She will be deeply missed by everyone 💛💛💛
So for example; my hot water bottle would have been made the last week of April 2019.
And it is recommended that you get a new hot water bottle after 3 years. That's when they expire. The material can then start to split leading to burns.

#ShowerThoughts
I have struggled with brain fog for as long as I can remember. I know it can be linked to chronic stress, sleep problems, hormones, meds, and medical problems. All which I have. But, I never knew diet could have such an impact. I struggle to eat dairy. Maybe I should now avoid!!
I've been on these meds now for a whole week. Side effects are reducing , which is good - but still going to take a while before I am back to my happy bouncy self.
I'm just so happy that I've still managed to have such a productive week.
Its the small things 💛
Really need to get better with money. Get a little bit of money and decide to buy two new books.
(As a side note, I already have 8 new and unread books)
In an irritable mood today for some reason. Currently at work and all I can hear is nose whistling. Getting annoyed at the person next to me, then realising its actually my nose making the noise 😅
5 Govt reports
All buried by Thérèse Coffey who refuses to publish
On:
1) The benefit cap
2) Deaths of benefit claimants
3) Impact of universal credit & benefit sanctions
4) Unpaid carers
5) Work capability assessments
Just imagine what’s in them.
So how did you spend your 4/20? Bet mine was better than yours.

Included the last pic because I liked my outfit.
Saying goodbye to my blue, red and purple hair. My mental breakdown is now over, finally got to a decent place. So it's time to go back to my normal state.
