Let's grow old Disgracefully

11th September 2019 THEM BONES,THEM BONES, there's a song in there somewhere   Good Morning My Lovelies, Well it's been some time since i sat down to write a blog, in fact way too long, Lesleyanne consider yourself told off. So why has it been so long i hear you asking, well, besides life and sometimes obstacles that get in the way leaving no time to actually sit down with my laptop and be creative. Someone has been a silly girl, yes that's right a silly girl, you've guessed it right, of course I'm talking about me. It was a lovely summers evening, so i say to my husband Chris "lets take the dogs for a walk" all three dogs Oscar 15 year old Jack Russell, Teddy 19 month old Pomeranian and Elsie 18 month old Chihuahua all running around with excitement as we get their harnesses out, running in and out of our legs, leads getting twisted and tangled, finally we are ready to go, checked pockets for poop bags, yep got those, so off w

LOVE IS IN THE AIR        Hi My Lovelies, Welcome to my new Blog which I must admit has been a long time coming, I have been grieving the loss of my Best Friend who lost her battle with cancer in January. So, on a completely different note and lightening the mood, it's time to think about Valentines Day!!! Have you decided what you are doing? do you actually bother? or do you think it's just all hype? Isn't it funny how age, time, finances and different relationship's change how you feel about this so called Romantic Day.  I remember as a young teenage girl I always looked forward to getting a few Valentine Cards sneakily put into my school desk, thankfully I was lucky enough to always get a few, I'm sure they were from the same three boys every year, but it was always a confidence boost and i must admit to enjoying the chase between the lads.  With age, the relationships started to blossom, and although not a complete materialist i always looked fo

5th November 2018   Let’s Talk Tarte From The Amazonian Rain Forest  LETS GET TARTY This week I received the Tarte Today’s Special Value I ordered from QVCUK, it’s literally a complete makeup look in just one kit, with an added bonus of a stunning makeup bag to keep it all in. I have been super impressed by the Tarte makeup products for a few years now, I don't own that many, mainly foundations, but what I do own, I really like.  I thinks its because not only are the products themselves of such great quality, but because of the Amazonian Clay element which is extremely good for our skin, in my mind I'm buying two products in one, and don't get me started on their lipsticks, so so hydrating, they glide on like a dream, just awesome. £33.00 from the Tarte website A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT  AMAZONIAN CLAY Amazonian clay : nature's most perfect ingredient for better, longer, truer wear Vitamin E : natural preservative that also acts as an anti-

Growing Old Disgracefully - July 2018 OK so this month I want to talk about highs and lows of life and how I manage them.   Who said retirement was the time of your life when it's time to sit back, maybe enjoy a hobby, cooking or whatever floats your boat, well, whoever they were, they were wrong.  In reality I struggle with making time for everyone, by this I mean my Husband Chris, I am semi retired and work from home as a Self Employed Dog Boarder, a Mother and a Grandmother.   When I retired from paid employment I had a vision.  So picture this - waking up in the morning, enjoying my first morning coffee in bed, followed by my next two cups at the breakfast table reading the newspaper while enjoying seeded toast spread with manuka honey, walks along the beach with Chris hand in hand, stopping off for lunch where ever our fancy led us, then cosy nights in watching our favourite soap's on TV with a TV dinner and a gin and tonic, oh and lets not forget the h
