Apologies

Hello, 
Now a couple of weeks ago I wrote a post about friendship, now I'm not some expert but since then I have come to realise that yes, people do make mistakes and sometimes it's easier to forgive and forget. 
Apologies are not easy, not for me at least! I hate saying I'm sorry because that would be admitting that I'm wrong and let's just face it, no-one likes to be wrong... it's human nature. I know that it gets easier and easier to apologies as you grow up, but right now it's difficult. I do sometimes think that some things can never be solved by just an apology, you have to earn someone's trust back; now that's even harder! Even if it's only a glimmer of an apology, that to me could be enough, depending on the situation of course! 

So I guess that my message for today would be, put yourself in their shoes, would you have been able to say sorry?

Friendship?

Hello dear friends,

There are 3 rules of shopping that you must ask yourself before purchasing; "Do you really want it?" "Do you really need it?" and "Can you afford it?" If the answer is no to any of the questions than you don't buy it! I think that there should be rules, like this, for friendship. It's a tricky thing that if you don't get right, can cause a whole lot of tears. 

Recently I have learnt that you must pick wisely when it comes to your friends, because those are the people that at the end of the day have chosen to love you, not forced to, and if they don't, they're not worth it.  By simply asking yourself my 3 simple questions, you could stop yourself from trying to make something work that just isn't meant to. So here goes:

1. What do they do that makes you feel better about yourself?

2. Would they go out of their way for you?

3. Could you spend a week without talking to them, without feeling lost?

If you can't answer these questions with a meaningful answer then just let it go, you'll probably be better off without them. 
I found a quote the other day, that really opened my eyes to who I should be surrounding myself with; 

"Don't Dwell on those who let you down, Cherish those who hold you up."

I really hope that you are happy and have in someway benefited from my 3 simple questions.

April Favourites

Good evening to you all, 
I thought today I would tell you what I've been loving this month. It is insane how quickly this month has gone and I can't believe that it is already May! 
I've been loving a fair few things this month, so I cut it down to a top five. 

Firstly, I have been completely loving the Soap and Glory Whipped Clean Shower Butter. There's not much to say about it except for it does what it says on the tin! Moisturises and cleans... all in one!

I have also loved this month the Britney Spears Fantasy perfume. Anyone that knows me will know this scent well. I wear it everyday and I still love it. I'm not sure that you can describe a scent but I think it's quite sweet with vanilla accents. 

My Vans, now let me just tell you, I have had them since christmas, but it was in these past few months that I've really started to enjoy them. They're so comfortable and they go with everything. 

Incense, I was having a spring clean the other day, and decided to light some; I'd forgotten just how must I love this smell!

On to TV programs now, there are two but both have already finished;   Poldark and Banished. I'm not really sure what to say other than go and watch them on catch up!

Thanks for reading! Please comment what you've been loving this month, I'd love to hear it!

A New Member of the Family

Good afternoon, dear friends

As some of you may know we, as a family, have been in search of a Fox Terrier puppy for a few months and finally we have found the one! 
We brought home Wallace yesterday night and already he has adapted well to his new home. He is full of bundles and joy, and at eight weeks he is already beautiful.  We have had no visitors yet but I'm sure it won't be long!
I have been thinking and thinking about this for ages and I am so happy now that it has finally happened. Wallace is being extremely good and even as I type he is sat asleep in his bed.
We've never had a puppy and I am new to it, so if you have any advice please comment!

Just two quotes :)

Dear friends,

On the lead up to my exams, I reminded myself of a quote that I think is by Petal. I don't know why it sprung to mind but I just kept reminding myself of it. I think that everyone needs to be reminded that not everything will turn out well the first time! And you will fail at some point but if you pick yourself up, and start again you are sure to succeed at something. You've just got to find you sparkle. 


I do love a good quote but I have to say that despite how much I try to live by them, I find it impossible, however in someway I think they help. 



Even on those dreary, rainy, overall rubbish days I think that I do always smile... even if it's just the once! I have a picture and quote wall in my bedroom, and one of the quotes that is strung by my bed states that life is always better when your laughing. Even if it's just at yourself... just laugh!
I'm lucky enough to have the friends, that will always manage to make me laugh, whether it's deliberate or not! 


That's all for today! Please comment below ;)

Floss xoxo
