Aaaghhh!

In the past couple of weeks I have been feeling so angry

A parking ticket was issued to me in a car park that said it was FREE for up to an hour....What! why why why did I get a ticket I asked the attendant if it's free for an hour
"oh you have to print a ticket and leave in your car" and where are the machines?
" well there is 1 (only 1) next to the entrance of the shop"
Ridiculous you can't even see it when you are at one end of the car park and how are you suppose to know you need to print a ticket
"nothing I can do"
Makes me soooooo angry.....I just paid it and they charge £2.95 extra for using debit and credit card madness. I am defiantly going to appeal.

Another anger moment, I was driving behind some kid in his spruced up Golf (how they afford it I don't know) and he was throwing his rubbish out the window crisp packets, bottle lids, wrappers, I just don't understand it why wouldn't you just wait for a bin. I actually hate people who litter it is just un-necessary.

Sorry I just had to get that off my chest.

Day 31: Why do you blog

Day 31 of the 31 day blog challenge - Why do you blog

Oh last day of the challenge.

I started way back in February 2010 to capture my thoughts and feelings throughout my pregnancy so I can look back on it like a diary I guess. I'm not sure why I started but anyway I decided to carry on as being a mum is a huge life change (more than I ever imagined) and it's a way of expressing or even writing down any frustration or rants of a day which always makes me feel better if I have no-one to talk to.

My very first blog post at 33 weeks pregnant

It has also been a learning curve as I didn't realise the huge community out there. As well as Little Blue Feet I have a blog called Mummy Beautiful this is so I can write about my passion for clothes and how frustrated I feel with programmes on TV that put outfits together on the high street and think everyone had £100-200 to spare so I have put a collection of outfits Under £20 (Latest is Outfit 10)


I haven't been posting as much as I used to as now I'm working I don't get the time but I will try as I would love to keep both blogs going.

Day 30: What's in your makeup bag

Day 30 of the 31 day blog challenge - What's in your makeup bag

I have one big make up bag that has different coloured eye shadows, lipsticks and glitter and make up brushes but I tend to use the same make up palette each day so I probably don't need evertything I have but you never know.

I used to do Avon so I have loads of make up from those days, I try many different ranges from cheap Collection 2000 to Benefit.


My everyday make up: 

• Pressed powder (Boots 17)
• Black eyeliner (Barry M)
• Mascara (Avon)
• White eyeshadow (Benefit)
• Rose blusher (Collection 2000)
• Erase paste (Benefit)

Day 29: Where have you travelled

Day 29 of the 31 day blog challenge - Where have you travelled

I love this post as travelling is a passion. Through my teens I went on beach holidays with my family like Calella in Spain, Majorca, the Canary Islands - Grand Canaira and Fuerteventura. I went to Magaluf twice first time with friends after A level exams and second time with my family and my other half which was actually better than the first time with friends. With college I went to Barcelona which I would quite like to go back to.

My first holiday with my husband was to Corfu (2000) which was really nice he's not really a beachy person so we travelled around the island to see more of it and even ventured to Albania which wasn't far. We did the same with Lanzorite (great hol) and visited all the sights.
Through my twenties my husband and I lived for our next adventure so we would have long weekend breaks to cities in Europe like Amsterdam, Prague and Paris. We also randomly spent days or weekends in UK towns and cities like York, Lands End, Conwy, Bournemouth and Dublin, Ireland.

New York 2006

One big holiday which we dreamt of was New York and we finally got there in April 2006. It was amazing I was quite overwhelmed by it as it was like you just walked onto a film set very surreal I would definitely go back we even considered running away and getting married there at one point. I would love to go there one Christmas as it looks amazing.




 

Annecy

My husband is half French so he has family that live in France so we have been several times to Annecy which is very close to the Alps. It is a beautiful place with lakes and mountains. 

From here we have travelled to Chamonix, Megeve, Italy and many other towns in and around the area. Ollie has been twice already in his first year being in this world once at Christmas and unfortunatly the other was for a funeral.

 

 Ibiza 2008

July 2008 we went to Ibiza which was a different holiday to our previous ventures but still amazing as we are huge dance fans I'm not sure why we left that one so late. We got there dropped our bags off and went straight to see the DJ Tiesto do his thing in one of the big clubs. By the end of the week we were exhausted with too much partying.

South Africa 2009

Another big holiday was our Honeymoon in May 2009 we went to Cape Town in South Africa. We tried to cram in as much as possible by visiting Table Mountain, shanty towns and Robin Island. It was another surreal place as walking on the Waterfront you could see seals in the water, while on a trip to the Cape of good hope we saw baboons in the road, a snake while walking around. It felt like we were so far away from home which was brilliant, the only thing I regret not doing was going on safari (other holiday maybe).

Scotland 2010

On our first Anniversary (2010) we travelled around Scotland from Fort William - Loch Ness - Inverness - John O Groats - Ullapool - Skye - Fort William - Edinburgh. It was a very busy week but a great one I can't wait to do something like that again.

That same year we spent a week in Brean, Dorset with friends then I found out I was pregnant so holidays will be very different from now on.

Hemsby 2011

Bournemouth 2011

Last year we spent a weekend on the east coast when Ollie was only 2 months just to get away and then again with my family in Bournemouth later in the year. At Christmas we went to France to spend with the Hubby's family.

I don't think we will be having a holiday this year but we have many places on our list we would love to see so we haven't finished yet.

Day 28: What are you looking forward to

Day 28 of the 31 day blog challenge - What are you looking forward to

After this warm spell I am really looking forward to taking a few days off work during the summer so my husband and I can take our little guy to the zoo for the first time. He loves animals right now so I can't wait to see how he reacts to big animals.

I would also like to go to the seaside with him as I can imagine he will have lots of fun in the sand.

I look forward to changes this year (hopefully for the better) for me and my husband and really just watching Ollie grow :)

Day 27: Post your favourite recipe

Day 27 of the 31 day blog challenge - Post your favourite recipe

I'm not really a great cook so I haven't a favourite recipe really. 

Last year I went through a phrase of weight watchers to lose baby weight and they had a great Thai curry recipe but I only made it once. Or a toasted bagel with tuna and cheese was rather nice but again I only made it once.


Sorry ladies I haven't an all time favourite, I really should get into cooking abit more. Maybe i'll get some inspiration from some of you :)
