Now that we've broken the ice

 Now I’ve broken the ice I want to tell you a little more about me. I have no idea what this blog is really going to be about, so I'm hoping that by writing this post I can set the scene a little bit better.

 I studied Sociology and Psychology at uni, and since then my life consists of working crazy hours. I am also a Lifestyle Consultant and Temple Spa and I love it and their products, it’s amazing and the only skincare brand I use now, I’ve never looked back, expect lots of reviews on their amazing products, special offers, and maybe the odd giveaway!
 I’m not very good at makeup but I do love it, how did I ever get by without Real Techniques brushes?! I’ve dabbled in nail art and you’ll never see me with naked nails. I like clothes too and I've recently lost almost 50lbs, although I’m not fashionable in the slightest I love shopping for my new body!
 Following that, I’m on a major health and fitness kick! Last year I started Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred, completed it, and have since worked out regularly every week, including when I went on holiday and I came back 4lbs lighter! I completed Insanity this year, followed by T25 and C25K, I'm currently doing New Rules of Lifting for Women and I've well and truly got the lifting bug!
 I LOVE cooking (and eating), I make all of my meals, expect to see lots of recipes and food pics (yeah, I’m one of them folk), as well as pics of my awesome cakes as I also have a mega sweet tooth and got taught to bake by my Dad! My Mam has her own shop that sells bridal wear, soft furnishings and custom made curtains, she is a very talented lady.
 I am the youngest of 3 children. I have an elder brother and sister who are both new parents to my nephews Isaac (18 months), Ezra (3 months) and Leila who isn't even 3 weeks old yet.
 I have no children, I opted for a guinea pig, much less maintenance! His name is homer and he is 7 (that’s ancient in guinea pig years). We lost his brother Clark almost two years ago and we miss him lots. We also have a part time cat, we don't know who she belongs to but she visits most days and has frequent sleepovers, we call her shit bag, she loves it.

 I have a huge needle phobia but I'm also a huge hypocrite and have 9 tattoos and 11 piercings, some may say I’m obsessed.
 I love music and going to gigs, I’ve seen Kings of Leon 7 times. As much as I like Sex on Fire, I have a massive grudge against that song for making them mainstream! Aha Shake Heartbreak is my favourite album on this whole planet.
 I like reading and films too, I’m sure I’ll be telling you about whatever book is by my bed when I finish it, or what I’ve just seen at the cinema. I’m also a mega Hunger Games and Harry Potter fan #sorrynotsorry

Now what?

So what shall I write about? What do you want to know? Do you even want to know?
 I expect I'll be writing a lot of posts at work on night shifts when it's quiet, so forgiveness is requested in advance for my madness, however I'm justifying it by saying it's my niche!
