Dressing up my life

I can safely say that I am not someone who sticks with plans and often change them up, I hate having things set in stone, but live a flexible life. I will get it done at some point. I am that kind of a woman, with me I don't have dinner at the same time, all of the time, because I am not always that hungry at the same time, so varies each day. I do wear make up to help me when in the morning I couldn't even lift a toe, forget about the rest of my body and literally had to scrape myself off of my bed. 

When I have days of being extra tired I will cover over my tiredness with make up, and take a shower, cause this instantly helps me come alive, I do still need a cup of tea and breakfast before I begin but feel more human by pampering myself and practicing Self Care and just a simple shower can do wonders. 

I love a good body scrub and I will treat myself to some lovely shower and body washes, Example: Bayliss and Harding and you should look after yourself. Taking time to sit and read a book in my dressing gown is a great way I can relax and then other days get back into action to do more work. 

There was a time where I would go bed about 6pm, but this did me no good. I would wake up around midnight not being able to get back to sleep so now I get ready for bed around 7pm. depending on when I get home, and will go to bed between 8 and 10pm. I have stopped listening to music in bed of a night, as it would keep me awake, and I miss it, but I will still listen to music in the day, but no when I wake up now I keep my phone away from me when I go to bed now and as soon as I began to do this I immediately felt the difference and next thing is to do a morning workout each day. 

So, if you want to spread your day with things you got to do with things you like to do, then do. Life should have simplicity and not all about rushing and taking care of the hours spent on yourself. You are worth it so tell yourself that each day. 

Many thanks for reading,

Why I like my own mug

Hello sorry it has been a while since writing on this blog. If you didn't know I am doing a life coaching programme "The Summer Project 2023" and is helping you have a better year and happy life, check out my blog site: https://everyonecanbuildacastle.com   I have created videos that are on my main Youtube channel for this project and so check it here via this link:  typicallondongal  It is June 2023 and today whilst having my first cup of tea completed the first draft of my book and feels so good to have this done. Having my own mug helps with that and it just something that gives me comfort.  When working in offices you would be asked to have your own mug if you wanted a cup of tea and coffee and thought that this was such a good idea and it makes it a homely environment. Of course if you work in a supermarket not so good because eating and drinking in front of customer is unprofessional, but doesn't mean you can't bring your own mug use it when you take a break...

Finding a decent coffee

Image
I love having a my coffee each day and been trying to not buy coffee from a coffee shop all of the time and use the jars of coffee I have and has made a difference but will treat myself to a Costa Coffee for example, but not all of the time. If you add up the amount a coffee from a coffee shop costs it can really damage your bank balance.  I am choosy when it comes to coffee and Greggs for do a decent Latte and is out of a machine rather than a coffee maker, and is cheaper than a coffee shop.  When it comes to a cup of coffee you want it to be smooth and not bitter. Cafe Nero for example I find their coffee too strong and so will go for a Chai Latte or a Hot Chocolate.  They say that Coffee can cause Anxiety which I read in a book, but for me it is different and it wakes me up and find it fills me up, and have to have a cup. I have the Sainsbury's Freeze Dry Jar of coffee and is my favourite out of the others ones, and was once upon a time, would be Kenco but no, not now ...

Being 45 and growing

Image
 As a kid I felt uncomfortable about being a child, because I saw being an adult, it meant that you had more freedom than being a child. Being 45 seemed a long long milestone and now I am 45, gotten to a place where I am okay with my life, and that I have come a long way to feeling good about myself and that I am no longer fearful compared to when I was a kid. I did have a good childhood and feel very lucky with the things I have done through out it, like holiday's in Clacton and Menorca, and seeing shows up London and visits to London Zoo, Chessington Zoo before it became a Theme Park, and it was just the zoo, and getting my ears pierced up London and spent time seeing my grandparents.  There was a time I liked to go out all the time and meet friends for a drink and get plastered. Not so much now, and like having the odd drink, but no over do it. Its alright going out partying but you have to think about getting home safely and I think you become more protective especially be...
