Hate Feeling Angry

The past few weeks I have just felt angry and irritated. I'm not sure how to stop it I really wish I didn't. 
Fed up with bugs constantly entering the house, not having a full night sleep is really getting to me. For weeks Joel kept waking up at silly times in the morning, the last two nights he hasn't but Ollie has  what is that about if not one it's the other. 

Just not sure what to do about this feeling, it's awful to say but kids are getting to me every sound they make instantly irritates me, the toys they have constantly get broken, they hardly ever share which erupts into full blown tantrums. This on lack of sleep really isn't helping and I have no one that will take over even just one night would be a dream but hubby just turns the other way.
What do you do when you just don't enjoy things you are suppose to. So I have been writing a bucket list but everything on there costs too much money so I can't actually do them. 

I think the real reason is I feel totally alone looking after boys no matter how many times I tell people I need a break I still don't get enough, I'm with them pretty much 24/7. What I really want is to be completely on my own why can no one understand that. I need my own space and it's driving my nuts not getting it. 

I now go to weight watchers every two weeks when hubby is at home but I don't think it's to monitor my weight anymore it's just the chance for me to get a couple of hours of freedom. How desperate does that sound.

Loving Cath Kidston

Last year I was a little obsessed with the dots and spots from Cath Kidston well I still am but I'm in love with the new Cath Kidston print "Clouds". This dress is gorgeous I love it so much. I need it.
Look at these fab trainers I probably would never wear them but I love looking at them ha! Although they would look super cute with the dress.

Also love the dotty address book and dotty purse, see still not over dots yet. 

Loads of great new Stanley mugs I already have a toadstall one.

Super Bargain

I was browsing through Asda sale when one of the staff started reducing items even further so I bagged a pair of black skinny jeans for £2 (was £18). Berry sequin jumper £2 (was £16) and a pair of black sparkle heels again for just £2 (was £12). I got a whole outfit for £6 with a hefty £40 saving.

Weight Track Goal and Beyond

At week 30 on my weight lose journey I made it to Goal and over by 1lb. 
10 stone 5lb on 29th November 2014

Since then I have gone off track as I no longer have my weight watchers app so I started eating the things I haven't for so long like sausage and chips, chocolate, cake, proper crisps so I was surprised to have only gained 1.5lb on week 33 20th December 2014 which took me to 10 Stone 7.5lb. 
Then it was Christmas which meant family get togethers which included buffet food, alcohol, chocolate and roast dinners. I felt bigger and my trousers felt a little tight. At week 
35 3rd January 2015 I had gained 5lb eek! Which makes me now 10st 12.5lb. 

6.5lb over my goal weight now gutted but I had eaten badly so I should count myself lucky. I have now got a weight watchers calculator and diary so I am writing everything down I eat. First day went well but second day we had a relatives birthday which meant lunch and cake so I'm now trying but I keep getting chocolate cravings and giving in but I have given up alcohol for the month in aid of Cancer Research so hopefully that will help the weight. 

My aim is to lose all my gained weight and more by my birthday on 12th March. Here goes :)
