Rocking your world Friday (Shhh, I know it is Tuesday!!!)

Hi all!!

I am sorry I missed the Friday post, I couldn't get to the internet! (How come every time I try to write internet, I write "Interent"?!)

I have a lot to ramble on about, so here goes! I am absolutely loving being back here, after my breakdown last week, I am feeling so positive. I have realised the only person that can fix me, is me! I feel full of confidence and drive.... now I just have to put it to good use!

I have just started up my own freelance make-up business, it is only in the process, but I am feeling confident so far! I set up a page on FaceBook and all my lovely friends and family are being so supportive! I always put myself down and think I am not good enough to be a freelance artist, but you know what? I am! I trained for months and put everything I had in to that course, I passed my exams with flying colours and I have a passion for it... which is the most important thing! I will post the link below.

I am really grateful for my friends and family over here in England. I am going to do a little list of individual gratefuls!

John: For making me feel so at home, and for wanting to spend every minute with me! I thought he would be sick of me by now!! hehe! He is so sweet, and always keeps his promises and most importantly, he always makes me smile! I love the way he has total faith in me, even when I have none at all. I love how passionate he is, and he makes me jealous with his talent for.. well... everything!!! I am so lucky to have him in my life.


Red: For being so welcoming and for making my room all pretty for when I arrived!! She had put up a big mirror for me to do my make-up and she had left loads of teddies for me (She knows I miss all my furry buddies!! hehe!). I am grateful for her being a bit of a taxi woman too! She is an absolute gem and she has a heart of gold. I love having a good giggle with her and we never seem short of them!



Auntie Liz: For always checking up on me, I love her little texts and phone calls asking am I ok!! I really enjoy our cups of tea together. It kinda feels a bit like home away from home with her around! Here she is, being wacky as always!




Virginia: Well, you all know this lady!! I am so grateful to know Virginia, she has been nothing but sweet to me ever since John and I started dating. She has gone out of her way to make me feel like part of the family from day one, I remember the first time I contacted her, I was kind of nervous, but as soon as she wrote back, I knew we would get along wonderfully! I think she is so talented, her Scrapbooks blow my mind, and her love of life is inspiring.





Mel: I love how sweet Mel is, she is an absolute star, I just wish she would believe it! Same as Virginia, she has welcomed me to the family without a second thought. She has let me sleep on her couch and she has driven around town trying to find me a battered sausage and ungodly hours! I love how we can chat about make-up (Both MAC lovers!) I am so glad to know her.



Val: Well, Val has made me feel like part of the family too! I remember the first time I met her, all she kept saying was "Isn't she tall?!?!" "Isn't she beautiful?!?!" She is always great for a laugh, and I am really looking forward to getting to know her better! She makes a mean cuppa and always has biscuits or chocolate waiting for me! WIN!



My family in Ireland: I miss them tonnes, but at the same time, we really make each conversation worth while, we talk and catch up, and it is lovely to know what they are up to and how they are doing! I am so grateful that mum and dad have been so supportive, couldn't have done it without them! I love my brothers too, I can't wait to see them all again!!!  Oooohh and I really miss my doggies, I found some adorable pictures earlier, I will post them below!!






I am so excited for everything! I feel like life is beginning now. As I don't have a job at the moment, I am loving playing the housewife... hehe! Yeah, I love sticking on some music, cooking and cleaning!!

Anyway, I will jump off now, I hope you all have a lovely week!!!
