#BlogLfe894 - What's up with Youtube these days?

The Youtube site is crashing so much on the laptop but playing fine on the phone, it's so frustrating.

Sometimes I need to be able to play multiple videos, anti nausea, music, asmr and I can't do that on the phone, I love my white noises played in the background, else it's too quiet.

I need to block things out. I just tried the Cheez It crisps I got complimentary with yesterday's cafe order.

I wasn't sure about cheese and chilli but actually it was mildish, not too overpowering, the more you ate, the hotter it got but it was bearable.

Crunchy, not too salty, not overloaded with cheese either. It reminded me of a dorito but nicer. I would recommend it but in a different flavour, my face is still warm, the tingle has gone though.

Ooh we finally got post this week and it's already Wednesday, after five days the AaproMel eye drops arrived.

I don't know this brand and it doesn't say if it's suitable for contact lens users or rgp/hard lenses but I'll have a go anyway.

The price was fabulous, 3 mini bottles for a fiver, they are usually a couple quid each.

Us hard lens people are supposed to get rewetting drops which are super pricey.

These just state they are lubricating. I just tried it as my eyes have been excessively dry and it didn't sting for one, woop.

Some do and it's horrible for already sensitive frayed eyes, plus it didn't seem too thin or to thick, it's the right consistency.

If it's too thin it doesn't always feel like it's giving any benefits, but also if it's too thick, it's just making you cry and lose any soothingness.

I usually see what it on offer, so far so good. My eyes feel a lot more comfy, not dry or itchy anymore.

I'll use them some more and then give some proper feedback, I was just dying to try them out.

Ooh one of the newer randoms, only spoken to him 3/4 times, ditched me last night mid-chat, that was unusual.

One minute flowing, the next he stopped responding and to be fair it was late.

But I saw him again and he didn't apologise just said Hi and I replied, that I wasn't talking to him.

So he said that actually he fell asleep and didn't see my messages so that was just a misunderstanding.

The only thing suspicious about him was that he made this remark like good to see you again, glad we're talking.

And before that, we had only talked once before and it ended pleasantly so either he mean't that or he's someone I blocked under a different nickname but he's well mannered so it's fine for now.

#BlogLife398 - Chatty chicks watching flicks 5 *Christmas edition*

Men are always welcome too but have absolutely no remote control privileges sorry.

I've been in the mood to watch some Christmassy romantic comedy movies so I thought I would list some of my favourites in no specific rank..

1. Undercover Christmas/Undercover Lover

I love Tyne Daly and she plays the heroes mama. It's about this dollybird (Jami Gertz), let's call her who is in love with a criminal, who doesn't treat her well but pays her expenses so she's tolerates it.

Then an uptight lawyer (Shawn Christian) with a stick up his butt, coerces her to turn against him and they end up spending Christmas together.. Awkwardly but hilariously, with his whole snobbish family.

2. Flight Before Christmas

I'm trying not to give too many spoilers away. A man (Ryan McPartlin) is travelling home to see his long-distance girlfriend and a woman (Mayim Bialik) is also travelling home to see her family.

The two of them bicker and banter and end up spending the holidays together in less than ideal circumstances which make them reflect on their other relationships..

3. Christmas Caper

A bit different this one. A jaded thief (Shannen Doherty) gets into hot water and hides out with her estranged family and then bumps into her childhood sweetheart who is also...... A cop.

4. Holiday in Handcuffs

A struggling waitress/artist (Melissa Joan Hart) is due to travel home with her boyfriend to spend the holidays with her family who have high expectations of her.

She resorts to unexpected measures when her plans go awry and must resort to kidnapping to keep up appearances...

5. A Very Merry Mix Up

A woman (Alicia Witt) is travelling home to meet her boyfriends parents and bumps into his brother, who enjoys spending time with her, a lil tooooo much but are the feelings reciprocated??? Hmm...

><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><

I feel like it's more enjoyable when the heroine isn't simpering and agreeing to everything like a stepford wifey.

Instead when she has confidence and conviction, even if they always make her this cold, hard nosed person, it's still more entertaining.

I could watch the above a hundred times and not get bored of them. It's just great when they inject some humour into these movies.

I might add to the list, as there are so many that I like and five doesn't seem that much at all.

Ooh I just got the first of my goodies at 10.55am. I always like to note down the times to gaige for next time.

It's my Murine eye drops. These are the Refresh and Clean types and I've tried the brand before but not sure which version.

I'm trying to find some drops that I really loved that I didn't note down.

It's not Blink, it's not Supereyes, I'll have to keep trying them out.

I think I've broken the spell, I haven't thrown up today but my stomach is still wobbly.

I'm trying to sip a lot and listen to subliminals that work for me. Plus eat some food that I hope will stay down.

On Monday I think it was I started my period and it was super light and by Tuesdays it had finished.

I'm still getting the nausea and slight cramps and definite bloating though.

The advice was, the more puffy you feel, the more you should drink, but sometimes I find that brings on the nausea too.

It's weird, I'm just trying to be productive and keep things moving along so I'm not overwhelmed.

Plus napping is immensely therapeutic. My body and brain get to rest and not get over-strained for a bit.

Oh my skirt and top is out for delivery so that is not due until the afternoon or evening.

As per usual the tracking is stuck but it's due with Yodel and I think they usually make it on the day, they say they will.

If there is still natural light, I'll try to take some images, otherwise it's just too dark and I can't see that well so it's blurry.

#BlogLife312 - Anti summer love

Are you a summer bunny or do you prefer the colder climates? How are you dealing with the excessive heat?

I'm just wearing light clothing and putting half filled squash bottles in the freezer to make homemade slushies.

Then every few hours I rub ice cubes around my face. I also have the fans going all day and night. I am so relieved that I bought 2 now.

I know I'm in the minority but I hate this heatwave and not keen on summer, not being able to layer up and waking up sweating.

Feeling as though I am slowly baking in an oven that can't be switched off. Ugh!!

Have you got sunburnt? Stock up on aloe vera, you may or may not need it.

The only time I ever recall my skin actually burning as I have never in my life bothered with sun block, was when I was a teenager.

I was in a t-shirt and shorts I think and my bare arms starting tingling and then I felt them scorched by the heat.

They weren't burnt but I really felt vulnerable that day. I've never experienced that since. I'm not looking forward to popping out tomorrow for groceries.

It's not much, maybe bleach, wraps, tissues, that sort of thing but I will go early and hopefully be back before it's too bad.

I'm hoping the bus tomorrow has windows and a seat. My Supereyes drops are nearly finished so I bought Blink.

It's the Intensive Tears version. I'm not sure if they are rewetting, the type I am supposed to purchase for my hard rgp lenses but they are contact lens friendly again.

I don't need to remove my lenses, to use them. I've used this brand before but I can't remember if I liked them.

Some drops are too thick to be hydrating and fog up the lenses and some are too thin.

I just hope they don't sting. My eyes are still sensitive and irritable and very dry.

They cost £4.50 and are due to arrive between today or before the weekend.
