Mid-Week Rambles

Wow here we are in February already, did anyone else completely miss January? It went so fast!!
Another week and another goal accomplished, I am so happy and grateful to have reached over 150 followers on Bloglovin - it was only 2 weeks ago I reached 100!! I am so overwhelmed and excited to reach 200 now and a massive thank you and hello to all my new followers!!

Yesterday was my dad's big 50th birthday, and because my brother's at uni we went out for a family dinner on Saturday and just the three of us last night.

Saturday night we went to the Chop House in London which is one of my favourite steak restaurants. I didn't have a starter because I know how good their desserts are, so for mains I had the Sirloin steak and chunky chips - which was OMG amazing. The chips were perfectly salty and crispy and oohh I can't go on I'm going to start dribbling all over the keyboard. For dessert I had sticky toffee pudding which is most definitely my favourite dessert of all time. It was perfect, moist, gooey and oops this time I did dribble.
I don't have any pictures of food because I was so engulfed in conversation and more so food. But here's a picture of all of us in front of Tower bridge.

Last night my mum, dad and I went to our local Pizza Express who serve the most incredible lasagne - no one (even mum) makes lasagne like they do. We went pretty early and had a chilled movie night in afterwards. Who says getting old has to be bad?

my brother being oh so clever

the big man himself

So this week will consist of me getting over yet another illness, continuing with "30 Day Shred", testing out some new products and redesigning my work space - so nice and busy.

I hope you all have a lovely week, thank you again to all new followers for getting me to 150 see you Friday x

Mid-Week Rambles

Hello beautiful readers, before I go into what's been happening this week I just wanted to say thanks again for getting me to 100 followers, I won't be doing a giveaway as I don't know how many people will enter and I'm a bit scared, pathetic excuse I know. When I reach 500 or have a regular number of comments then I will happily do one.

I don't know if you have noticed but my blog has had a little 'nip & tuck'. Over the weekend my cousin came over and as she is much better at blogging,  html and all that malarky she helped me give my blog a mini makeover. I am so much happier with how it looks now, there are still a few things I would like to do, nonetheless for a weekend's work we did pretty good!

I have also began to plan out all my exercises for the next few months, as a result of my shocking performance in the bleep test yesterday. I will be doing a number of DVDs starting with "Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred" - seriously hard guys.
Although I have some idea of which DVDs I'll be doing if you have any requests comment below or drop me an email and I will happily give them a go for you.


Other than that not much has happened this week, we're going out for dinner on Saturday with the whole family for my Dad's 50th (I'll show you pics next week) and just work the rest of the time, nothing exciting unfortunately.

I hope you all have a lovely week, be sure to check out Gemma's (my cousin) blog here.
Love you all and I hope February will be a great (perhaps fresh if necessary) new month for us all.

Mid-Week Rambles


So I'm back at school and already I'm feeling it. 3 weeks off and then going back into tests and full on work is definitely not the best however it does mean I have finally got back into a good routine and have actually been productive every day (I know it has only been 2 days but I'm proud anyway).

Not much has happened this week I started my sugar free detox on Monday, I also began Jillian Michaels Ripped In 30 which I'll be reviewing in February. I've started running and swimming also because I am not very good at either so figured it would be a good idea to improve those skills.

I was going to post my make up and outfit and pre-party routine last week but after having had an eventful New Years I decided I would just relax before coming back to school to relieve myself of any stress I had following that evening (which I will not go into).

But here is a picture of me so you can see what I wore and what I looked like before all the drama.
