I finally had a haircut!
First of all I wanted to say thank you for the lovely comments and support; they really mean a lot to me <3
It's been a funny week with loads of appointments. Monday, of course, was GP time, but the doom and gloom of that was offset by meeting Kerri for coffee as it was her birthday. I had kind of forgotten how good it feels to socialise, and how isolated I've made myself. I've promised that we'll go somewhere/do something at least once a month during the day, and hopefully also an evening thing too. Evenings are harder as right now I'm finding so many things I can't do...pubs are too crowded and set my anxiety off, cinemas are expensive and the chairs too uncomfortable for me to sit for long periods of time (and I know that's my own fault, even my bed is uncomfortable right now).
Anyway, it was lovely to see her and I am so thankful that my friends haven't given up on me. I don't know how they find the strength to put up with me, really I don't.
Tuesday I had orthodontist and now have a shiney brace on my top teeth. Ugh, hopefully it won't be for too long as it's a kind of last resort to get some improvement with my stupid teeth. The only real solution is major jaw surgery (tis all a long, complicated story) but we're hoping this, and a permenant retainer will bring about some change, as I don't want the surgery, and no-one wants to do it on me!
Still in the uncomfortable stage of hurting teeth, which makes eating anything hard, I'm trying though and have stocked up on soft things like hot oat cereal, soups and butternut squash that can be mashed up.
Weds I had blood tests and an ECG. As far as I know they both went fine, ECG did certainly or I'd have heard by now, bloods will be back next week sometime.
At least that is appointments over till Feb 1st!
And now it's not much past 7am Friday morning and I've been up since 5, ugh. But, for the first time in weeks I slept through from 12, so I feel quite good. Seeing Trudi later for coffee, yay!
I'm off work tomorrow, but one of my awful cousins is down with her new boyfriend for the day (um, methinks she either wants to show off or beg for money from my grandparents as it is very unlike her to pop down just because)...Mum and I had hoped to go in to Bristol and finally spend our Christmas money, but now we're oblidged (co-erced by Nan) to spend time with Soph. Argh.
Sunday is my Grandad's birthday so we're round there again for lunch and the afternoon. That I don't mind. I love my grandparents, but have major problems with my girl cousins and their total lack of morals.
Anyway. That's about it. I've done a lot of shopping this week, woops! New shoes (£3 bargain), A jumper, A bag and dress (used a gift card), Makeup and 2 x opi nail polishes. Oh dear. It was nice to be able to afford it though, and hopefully Tuesday now, I'll get to spend my Christmas cash.
Ramble ramble ramble. I'm outta here.
scared. I think.
More snow. I miss dressing pretty. All my outfits over the pas week have looked much like this

Bought this jumper yesterday and I'm in love. So comfy.
but a LOT of panic buyers, which I don't have a problem with in itself, even if I don't understand it...
but the behaviour and selfishness of some people
(taking milk out of an old ladies basket, really?!) and the fact they were hoarding things to an extent there was nothing left for people's basic needs, really wound me up,
if we all just bought what we needed/would normally use, then it would be much fairier, we have less stock right now anyway due to cancelled deliveries.
I know some people can't get out of the house in this, but that doesn't apply to the majority of this town, we are not snowed in, and the centre is in walking distance of everywhere. Ho-hum
This from the girl who isn't meant to be leaving the house, or going to busy places for the risk of catching something, or falling and breaking something
but can't make herself stay inside, so goes out regardless, then complains of feeling wretched and of being frozen.
I've been wearing so many layers I can barely bend. BMI 15 in the coldest winter in my lifetime is not at all amusing.
I want my life back.

We got snow,
though compared to much of the UK, we've got nothing!
(not that I'm sorry about that)
Off for blood tests soon, ugh,
means I've had doctors AND bloods this week. Not amused (but tis my own fault for being crap)

I'm late, because our internet was down for a few days but...
Happy New Year!
I hope 2010 is wonderful for you all

over knee boots <3
Wow, two more sleeps until Christmas day. Am I organised?! Pretty much now, yes.
It was Mum's birthday yesterday so I spent all my time with her, making sure she was spoiled rotten; this included coffee out and the purchase of a Hello Kitty balloon..she'll never grow up ;)
We had tea at my grandparents, my dad and nan are the best comedy duo ever, we were in stitches. All to be repeated Christmas day (and probably boxing day too)
Ben's home from Leeds, which is nice, mostly, if you can discount the sudden dissapearance of a lot of the festive food/drink stock (which doesn't bother me) and the non-stop loud music (does bother me, it sends my thoughts crazy). But fingers crossed things will calm down and we'll soon settle in to a routine. All annoyances aside, it's wonderful to have him home.
Did some more baking on Monday, another lot of the cornish fairings, and some shortbread
Made about 30 pieces and there isn't a lot left, which is pretty much an awesome compliement.
Ohhh, caught up with friends on Sunday night which was fab, even though I was anti social and exhausted. It was so good to see everyone, and I MUST make more effort in the new year (providing of course, that they do as well)
We've had some snow, but not as much as other parts of the UK, and nothing compared to what has hit the USA!
It's more annoying than anything as a lot of the smaller roads here are like ice rinks and dangerous by car or on foot.
This lace top is probably my favourite recent purchase :)
(caramel bonbon "snowballs" and chocolate raisin "reindeer poop")


fun times.

My hair has got so long.
I wish I had something worthwhile to say about it,
but the gems from today were
"your blood pressure is well and truly in your boots this morning"
and
"my recommendation for you...buy a thermal vest"
Dude,
I totally didn't realise something as simple as a thermal vest would fix me. I'm in.
At least I don't have to see her for a month,
that's the best Christmas gift ever.


Had a quiet weekend, I did the 7-10am shift on Saturday as a favour to work, which, apart from having to walk up in the pitch black freezing cold, was quite enjoyable.
I am not loving this weather, up until today it's been more rain and wind...although looks like for today at least, there is a reprive.
I'm struggling to stay warm more than ever,
but that's my own fault so I am trying hard not to complain.
Quiet week ahead,
I have an orthodontist appointment on Friday, having being re-referred by my dentist to see if we can fix my stupid teeth at all. Really, the only permenant solution is major jaw surgery, but there might be a less invasive measure that could bring about small improvement. Anything will be better than my stupid sticking outy teeth, but I have to see what the prof says. Obviously major surgery isn't an option now, and probably never will be due to the eating disorder and subsequent health issues,
I'm not too dissapointed though, I can't say I much like the idea of having both jaws broken and re-set.

Outfit today, lots of layers as I have to go wandering for Mum.
I must try and update here more regularly, by the time I feel like writing, I forget what may, or may not have happened, though that tends to suggest that it probably isn't worth writing about anyway!
I hope everyone is well <3
Had usual doctors appointment today, but don't remember/don't want to remember what went on.
Any other UK'ers totally sick of the weather? I got totally drenched walking home earlier, like, dripping by the time I got in the house [sorry Trudi, for rushing off the phone, if you could have seen me..haha].
Quiet weekend,
Dad's back, he came back Friday, and, whilst he's in a good mood
the house feels much more chaotic.
Mum and I loved having time to ourselves, we did so much more than we normally would as we didn't have to consider what time Dad would be back from work etc.
That being said, I did miss him!
Finished all my Christmas shopping now
*feels smug*
Just need to get organised with cards now.
Nothing else to say,
gonna spend my afternoon browsing ebay and such.
Sadly I have to venture back out in the foul weather at 5pm, as Mum decided she wants to do the food shop, and I own the vital staff discount card.
outfit du jour.
I've barely worn anything interesting lately, due to aforementioned awful weather.

Yellow tights <3
I have nothing to update. Lame.

my tights are awesome yes?
Perfect remedy to a shitty week = buying the perfect blazer. Jersey material so it's warm and comfortable; boyfriend style; and works with everything.
Oh, and only £20

This is probably the most expensive item of clothing I've bought for myself in ages!
I did some baking at 9am this morning, Mum wanted baked goods for work tomorrow so figured I'd go ahead and provide.
Rice Krispy Treats (her favourite)
Oat cookies with M&Ms
1. My daisychaindreams.blogspot.com appears to be no more, after a password reset e-mail that I did not request, my account is now closed, I managed to change the password and now the blog is there on my dashboard but can't be accessed and all my damn posts have gone.
2. Just got off the phone with the doctors, I need repeat bloods done Friday as my liver function and something else came back wrong.
STRESS
