Day 09 - A picture of the person who has gotten you through the most.



This "special person" has got me through all of the tough times in my adulthood. Although he caused a couple of tough times too I think we've made it through happily to the other side. When I had a horrific time in Plymouth he drove down pretty much every weekend for 3 months. When I had appendicitis he wrote a presentation contributing to his final degree grade in the A&E. When I fought with my mum, he'd pick me up from the bus stop down the road. He's a pretty good man.  He looks after me and makes sure I'm ok which I need because I can be slightly useless. I love his face. The end.

Day 08 - A picture that makes you laugh.



Dan and I were looking at geeky marriage proposals on the internet and this one had me in fits of laughter. Especially about the mouse! We had been discussing lolcats earlier in the day too and this has to be one of the better ones.

Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item.


If I had to choose an item I couldn't live without it would have to be my lovely phone. The battery life of it annoys me but other than that it's awesome.

Day 06 - A picture of a person you'd love to trade places with for a day



Terry Pratchett. Now, he's not that attractive and he has alzeimers but I would love to have his brain for the day. I'd read everything he hadn't published yet and have a go on his crazy 8 monitor computer. His sense of humour is awesome and I think it would be hilarious to bumble about like an old man for the day.... Ha.

Day 05 - A picture of your favorite memory.


Who says your favourite memory can't be tainted with sadness? This is the first time all of the Hannah grandchildren were all together with our grandparents and my grandad spent all weekend trying to get us to sit together for a photo. The reason we're all looking in different directions is because there were 3 people taking it. Bex's eyes are closed and Myles doesnt ant to be there but it made my Grandad so happy. The last time (and second) time we were all together was at his funeral but this is still a good memory.

Day 04 - A picture of your night.

I dont have a picture but you can pretty much guarantee I ate cake, I cuddled guinea pigs and had a LUSH bath.

Speaking of which, just got my forum order and big fat YUCK to Snow Showers. Smells like orange calpol. Luckily someone online enjoys the scent and doesn't want to puke at the slightest whiff. Score! Except for the fact I'll have to make the effort to repost the thing.

Calacas shower gel is my new love.

SPRING MING which was free is awesome. Shower smoothie, shaving cream, shower jelly, hand cream, moisturiser, ballistic and something else I've forgotten now. All very worth the orange icky grief.

Day 03 - A picture of the cast from your favorite show.

I love this challenge!! I have too many shows that I like but I'm going to post a total of 3.

First off, how Chuck (the guinea pig) got his name.



Casey, Sarah, CHUCK, Ellie, Captain Awesome and Morgan :D. Just some of the amazing cast in Chuck.



Chuck is the lady in the yellow dress. It's short for Charlotte. Although they only made two series I love it!! Pushing Dasies. Just realised I didn't say the show!!


And anyone who knows me knows I love this show too. I've watched all the episodes three times over. Its how I wish my life could be.

Day 02 - A picture of you and the person you have been close with for the longest.




Now this is a hard one. I wasn't very close to my Dad when I was growing up due to his job and his violent temper. However, when my parents divorced I came to realise how similar we were and have got closer and closer. Out of my whole family I would say that I have a closer bond with him. I trust him and know he won't share anything I tell him. Plus he trusts me and lets me into his confusing brain, whereas he doesn't share as much with Bex. 

I did think about my Mum but the divorce seemed to have the opposite effect on our relationship than mine and Dad's. We relied on each other in my childhood and then she decided that she wanted to be completely independent. Also we have alternate views on how people should live.

Anyway, here are some pictures of me and my daddy. Above 4 year old me and below 24 year old me.

Worst week and picture challenges!

Like the title suggests I have had the worst week. Starting with my Dad being poorly and ending with me having a broken toe!! On the positive side, we're off for a curry later with some good friends and I have taken part in another Lush forum party (with thanks to Dan because I was at work from 7.40am - 7.50pm).  This means that hopefully next week I'll be getting some limited edition things and another free hatbox :D.

Also I have decided that to make sure I blog more often I am going to do the 30 day picture challenge (stolen from Miss Becky Jerams)! Especially because I was really lazy with the photo challenges before.

So for today, here is a picture of whatever:


Here is a picture of my mug, well not mine per se. A picture of a mug I have that someone else has on the interwebz. This is my motto. Tea is my constant. I drink between 4 and 8 cups a day. Biscuits are good but optional.
