PERSONAL: My Pets

Now I've been thinking about doing a post about this for a while. I love my pets as they make me happy and are also entertaining. Therefore I thought I'd do a post and share them with you! If you follow my Instagram you would have seen a few pictures of some of my pets.
Now when I say my pets I mean me and my families pets, all together we have five pets, well six if you count our cat that comes back every now and again for food.

So lets start with the Cat/Kittens

Freddy is around 4 years now and he's so cute and friendly. He never goes very far for long and likes to sit on the window sill and look inside while we are cooking or in the dining room.

We then have our newest additions to the family two kittens named Cookie and Mia. They are so adorable but at the same time little rascals! Don't be fooled by their cute faces. They are around 4 months old. I can tell them apart as Cookie is the one with white under her chin/face, whereas Mia has a black/brownish face.

Then moving onto the other pets and that is the Dog and Tortoise!

I have a dog named Willow who is a mix of Jack Russel and chihuahua. She is mad as a hatter and will be two in February. I don't have many photos of her as most of them are blurry as she just doesn't stay still for long.

Last but not least is Spidey the Tortoise, now this is more my mums pet as she has always wanted one and got one for her birthday last year. Spidey is amazing to watch as he (guessing it's as he, we don't know!) moves about. He's very nosey and while we were putting our Christmas decoration up last year he decided to have a little look. At the moment he's going through a phase of trying to get out and move his house around.

 

This was when we just got him, he has grown since.

So that is all my pets! Hope you have enjoyed this post and looking at all the pictures.

How many pets have you got?

Life update // Homeware Wishlist

I'm planning on doing some Homeware wishlist ever now and again to inspire me and hopefully my readers. My plans for next year are to hopefully move out of my parents house and find a house with my best friend. We've been thinking about it for awhile now but at the moment she lives with someone else and has to wait for the lease to run out. Also finger crossed that I get the job I've applied for which means I should get more money. However I don't know enough yet to get my hopes up as I'm in the early stages of changing jobs.

Anyway back to what I was meant to talk about and that is my Homeware wishlist, with the prospect of a new home I want to start buying a few bits. Here are some items which I have seen and been lusting over.

1) Teal Rosalee Cushion - £9.99

2) Caprice 4-Armed Ceiling Light Fitting - £79.99

3) Vintage Cream Collection Large Heart Mirror - £6.49

4) Perpetual Calendar - £15

5) Nouveau Collection Eiffel Tower Candle Holder - £7.99

Goals for 2013

I know this is probably a bit late as these posts are normally done at the start of the year.
However I haven't really thought about it until now and thought I'd write a personal post about my goals.

• To get fit for my holiday - I'm going on my first holiday abroad in September, and as it will be hot most of the time I will have my legs out and also be in my bikini. Which I'm not really used to here with the shitty weather we have. I want to focus on my legs and stomach the most. So if anyone has an tips and trick that would be great!

• Take on driving lesson again - I did start learning to drive last year and got pretty far but due to personal reasons and stupid DVLA I stopped and never started again. It would be great to do lessons and pass my test as it means so much freedom, which is what I really need at the moment.

• Enjoy life and don't let men get me down - After a bad break up last year I have a lot of hate for men and trust issues. I need to learn to not let men get to me and just enjoy my life with my friends and family.

• Go to more concerts - Music makes me happy and I'd love to see more of my favourite bands live. I know this is an on-going goal rather than just an 2013 goal.

• Grow my nails - I've seen so many great nail art posts from bloggers, which has inspired me to try out some myself. Before I do that I really need to grow my nails.

These are just some of my goals I can think of right now but I'm sure during the year I will think of more to add to this list.

What are your goals for this year?
