Reflection and Inspiration for 2014!

Hey peeps! 

Happy New Year to one and all!! Hope you all had fun celebrating the new year last night... Although I only recognised a few tracks (it was a Motown and Soul night) as it was mostly soul that was played, I tried to enjoy myself as much as possible. I quite like a bit of Motown so felt disappointed with the music. However I did feel great in my outfit! I wore my new peephole dress. I now know that I want another dress like this. I'll post a pic for you to see my dress. 
Today I've just been chilling out; watching telly and eating which are things I like to do. I've been thinking about the things that I would like to achieve this year. I would love to have my second craft stall (got one planned for Easter), keep on with my blogging (this blog and my other blog), my Dinkykts EDS Diaries, go to as many concerts as I can (got Backstreet Boys in April), and maybe start writing my book. I can't think of anything else at the moment but I'm sure I'll share with you when I do. My health is very important so it all depends on that really. Oh lastly, I hope to meet lots of new people and who knows where life will take me?!? 
I don't believe in making new year resolutions anymore as the majority of the time, you rarely stick to them. A lot of people have said 'New year new me' but that's not for me. I see it as if you want change, then you got to try and make changes yourself. Focus your energy on positive stuff whether its doing a hobby or surround yourself with people who inspire and encourage you to be the best person you can be. I don't want to change into a new me, saying that, I don't by any means think I'm perfect, far from it but I am who I am. I'm sensitive, loyal, kind, understanding and caring. I do worry and panic, a lot, and I do put myself down but that's how I am. These do get the better of me sometimes but I'm a working progress and try to focus my attention on things that I enjoy, like music, crafting or blogging etcetera to distract myself from these moments of self pressurisation. 
Although I'm trying not to dwell on 2013 as it was a roller coaster of a ride but I do hope that I can make 2014 a more positive year. So who's with me on my new year?!? 
That's all for now... See you soon xxx

Child Prodigy

Image
It was just the other day when I came across a documentary by Keith Allen filming James Harries who is now known as Lauren Harries. Does the name ring a bell to you? He was the 80s/90s child prodigy who claimed to know about Antiques. He had thick, curly blonde hair and always wore a dicky bow tie. I'll post a picture of him as a young boy, I'm sure you'll remember him when you see him. Back to the documentary. James is now Lauren after a sex reassignment operation. I actually think she still seems confused and delirious. In fact the whole family are living in a world of fantasy, delirious, disfunctional and delusion. All the way through I kept an open mind, in a way, I kind of felt sorry for them. All those years ago, Mark and Kate must have been really desperate to push their youngest son into the limelight forging a claim that he could do antiquing at such a tender age. I thought it was good that Lauren had counselling during the treatment but when i

Children with Gadgets

Hello everyone, I've been thinking back to a few weeks back when I was having a conversation with somebody. The topic was about kids having technical gadgets like games consoles, kindles, iPads and so on.  Going back to when I was a child, we didn't have all of these. Yes we had an Atari but that was for the whole family and I was in my teens by the time we got it. I had actual children's toys like Lego, Sindy dolls, and other toys. For the days that it rained or was too cold, I'd spend hours playing with these toys and I enjoyed arts. I'd do painting, making things and writing stories.  I liked to play out on the street with the other kids on the street. There were skipping ropes, pogo sticks and that ball with the rope toy etc. It was so much fun and meant we  learnt how to be creative, socialising and getting the exercise needed.  Another thing that kinda annoys me is when parents give their little kids kindles and iPads or even putting a DVD on fo

Dating and Disability

Hi peeps!! How are you doing? I hope you're all keeping well and that life is treating you with love and kindness.  As I've been watching ITV2's Love Island and have continually be surrounded by couples whether it's friends, family or even celebrities, it's really made me think about dating.  Everyone makes it seem so easy and I know it's not, but that's how it looks to me. I'm thirty-two and it's been way too long (much longer than I dare to admit here!) since I dated anyone. I feel it's definitely gotten harder for me. In the last four or five years, my health has deteriorated which means I no longer go out on nights out, I don't go to any clubs and there's rarely a chance for me to meet anyone. Although when I used to go out night-clubbing; meeting someone who was heavily intoxicated, really didn't do any favours and it wasn't my preferred way of meeting someone. A few friends have suggested trying out dating apps/site
