On our walk the other day...

On our walk the other day, I took some photos of Jessie and Buddy posed on the steps near the woods, and I think they look adorable! This was after they went swimming in the river. We then went home and I bathed and blow dried them. This was also the day my dad and I went to B&Q to buy my book shelves, and put them up. My books now have a home! And there's room for more, which can only be a good thing. I can't see there being space for much longer though because I'm currently reading, and enjoying, The City of Bones, so want to buy the rest of The Mortal Instruments series. There's five books in it at the moment.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

My Week in Photos and Someday Summary

Hello! I thought I'd do something new this week and show you what I've been up to through the eyes of a camera. I'll also be having a natter. Before we start, I just thought I'd say that the photos do not show everything I've been doing, and I kept forgetting I was meant to be taking photos! Also, I won't be doing one of these posts every week because my routine pretty much stays the same! My life basically consists of my animals, food, parcels and revision, and this is displayed in the following photos.

Monday

1. I presented my media presentation. I became nervous a few minutes before it was my turn, but I didn't let my nerves get to my voice, and it went okay :)

2. I bought this yoghurt drink from Lidl and it was delicious! I love peach yoghurt.

3. The bag I ordered from New Look arrived. It's my first 'grown up' bag. The bags I've previously used for school and university have been of the shopper variety.

4. I painted my nails with China Glaze For Audrey and the Models Own Nail Art Pen in White.

Tuesday

1., 2., and 3. After uni, I took Jessie for a long walk :)

4. and 5. The online food shopping arrived! I added mango & blackcurrant sorbet and lemon cheesecake ice-cream to the basket, and oh my! They are delicious! Tesco, 2 for £3.50, go!

Wednesday

1. Revising for my English exam.

2. I had lunch at lunch time, for once!

3. My The Body Shop order arrived. There was a 40% off and free delivery code floating around the internet, so I took advantage and stocked up on the hand gels. I also ordered some other bits, but they're birthday presents.

4. The aniseed balls and chocolate brazil nuts I ordered for Father's Day arrived (I buy presents early!). The person I order my 'not easy to get hold of' sweets from is great. This is their website and this is their eBay store.

5. 'The Help' arrived from Amazon. It doesn't sound like my kind of book, but it has a lot of positive reviews, so I thought I'd give it a read.

6. Battered sausages! They look disgusting, but they taste so good.

Thursday

1. After uni, I went to Lidl and bought yoghurt and fruit to make healthy snacks.

2. A healthy snack made from the yoghurt and fruit!

3. and 4. I took Jessie for another walk.

5. After I took Jessie for a walk, I took Shadow for a short walk down the road (She's old and cannot handle long walks any more). On our journey, I turned around to see three of my cats following us! I wish I had taken a photo of the two dogs and three cats walking in a row.

Friday

1. Last minute revision before my English exam. I think it went okay, but I won't know for sure just yet.

2. My Figs and Rouge pomegranate balm from Feel Unique arrived.

3. I wrote a post about The Body Shop Hand Cleanse Gels.

4. Chicken dippers and onion rings - Yum!

Saturday

1. I had grapes, scones and tea for breakfast.

2. My giveaway prize from Sian arrived! Thank you so much, Sian :)

3. Planning my final assignment.

4. and 5. I was bored, so decided to curl my hair. The photos show only half of my hair curled. The curls made my hair look so much shorter!

5. Pizza and cauliflower cheese :)

Sunday

1. I reviewed the Remington Pearl Curling Wand (It's the post before this!)

2. Lunch. In my sandwich was ham, cheese, tomato and cucumber. The cheese is from Farm Foods and is amazing! It's really creamy and extra mature. You know you have a good block of cheese when you squidge it and it's soft.

3. What my hair looked like 24 hours after curling it (It still looks like that now, actually).

4. I'm now planning and starting my final assignment. I shall be occupied with this until the 6th June.

What else?

• I've started buying things for my sister's birthday present box, even though her birthday isn't until August!
• I'm going in town Wednesday and I'm so excited! It feels like I haven't been shopping in ages. I'm mostly excited about buying a new academic diary haha
• Oh, I finished reading Insurgent a few weeks back (The book after Divergent). I absolutely loved it. The next book in the trilogy doesn't come out until next year :(
• I'm thinking about learning how to embroid, seeing as I'll have a few months spare soon!

Did you watch the Eurovision Song Contest final last night? How unpopular are we?!

Office boots

These are my new boots. I was eyeing them up for a while, and when size sevens came back in stock and I found a free delivery code, I couldn't resist. They were £50, down from £80, which is ridiculous! In fact, that's the most I've ever spent on a single item (I still live at home with my parents, so I have yet to make a big 'grown up' purchase). However, *cue the excuses* I live in boots, it's rare for me to find a pair I actually like, and I had the money. I only have a few pairs of shoes, and I live in Britain, so these are going to get worn a lot. The toes are more pointy than the boots I've worn in the past, but I'll get used to them. They also came in a box; fancy!

After I took the photos of the boots, I took a few photos of Jessie, and just had to show you this one. I don't know what the fascination is, but a photo of an animal yawning (or in this case, talking) is a golden shot, in my eyes!

Shoes and Doggies

I'm not a shoes kinda girl. Nor a handbag one. I buy shoes more for practicality, rather than making an outfit look better.

The shoes I recently bought:

These are from New Look and cost £9.99. I had some like this from Primark and really loved them but my toe made a hole in the fabric and was poking out for the world to see. Hopefully this won't happen with these because there is rubber across the toes! These are cross between dolly shoes and trainers, making them easy to wear with most outfits. They are khaki coloured but New Look also offer them in black, white and blue.

I have a photo of my old Jessie and Shadow, sitting above the steps and wanted to recreate this photo with the new Jessie and Shadow:

New Jessie (nearly 2 years old) and Shadow (13 years old).

Look at Shadow posing! haha

I'm glad I have photos of Shadow with both the old and new Jessie's.

Jessie

Here are a few photo's of my gorgeous puppy Jessie :)

Back paws forward!

A little sleepy :)

Awr! You can see that this one and the next two are of her when she was younger.

This is Shadow our Lab (About 12 years) & Jessie :)

Shadow & Jessie Playing

Here is a video of my dogs playing. Shadow is about 11 years old so she doesn't play a lot and she has been getting annoyed with the puppy always trying to play with her. I think she has got used to Jessie and its brought out the puppy in her. I had to record them playing as it was so cute!
