#BlogLife462 - I dread summer

It's a strange morning with the sun shining but the wind blowing through me.

Dic called me first thing about 10amish maybe, I was already awake reluctantly as I didn't feel rested enough.

It's pretty funny that my phone rejected him before I did. I hit the answer button and spoke but for some reason it didn't take and it said missed call, instead of answered ha.

I did call the idiot back as it was the third missed call and I was apprehensive at what the hell he wanted..

As per usual, the fool just lets it ring and ring and doesn't pick up but hey, I fulfilled my obligation, I tried..

Then a lil while later he calls again, I get it and what has he been pestering me about nonstop???

Even though he had me there in person? A bloody survey! Yeesh, could have so easily emailed it to me.

What a dope, I couldn't respect him less than I already do!

The weather keeps changing, hot, cold, hot, cold and if there is another heatwave, it will be stifling.

I rely on my blankie so much. I do wish it was longer though, I have to keep tucking my feet in to get the warmth.

But it really soothes the pains so much. I haven't even used the heated massager as much because I don't feel I need as much.

In summer times though, I can't think of any alternative that will be a great pain relief substitution.

It feels so unnatural to fall asleep without a covering on top of me.

Maybe I'll put some icy bottles near me, although they do tend to melt quickly.

I also need to get a face wash, I'm sure the Biore one is almost finished, I thought I had some spare ones actually but nope, probably forget to get some.

I would like to try something new but I hope it doesn't have the scrubby beads, ick!!

The lump is the same and I can't tell if the dark acne scars are fading, my face looks really wonderful and clear, my nails keep growing but chipping.

I do feel less like a zombie and my body feels less delicate but I wonder if the three periods happened this month because of multivitamin intake......

The more I taste of the Nutrigums, the less I like it. It's quite bitter and strong. The hair one was much nicer.

It's the fact that you have to chew it and experience that tang which is off-putting.

Something else I wanted to add relating to yesterday's post is that I don't expect people to be perfect around me but certain things do bother me and I've noticed a lot and I shouldn't have to put up with someone being thoughtless.

For example if I share something personal and the response isn't a kind or caring word, that affects me.

Don't go overboard but just saying ummm... Thanks for being open, or that's tough, makes a world of difference, otherwise I feel I am talking to myself.

I divulged something and the response was......... Ok, well try anyway!

Ughhh!!! I'm not looking for a therapist or to fixed but some understanding sure.

How can I possibly spoil someone and be loving if I feel unheard???

It's like the walls just go back up and I feel underappreciated. Why give myself to a person who isn't showing me they deserve it?

Being alone is so much easier in many ways. Have a delicious weekend and I'll see you Monday.

(At least that's the plan)..

#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.
