    OH MY GOD. MY TOE NAIL FELL OFF (AM I ADULTING #4) | QUEENBEADY

    Processed with VSCO with hb2 preset

    This is not clickbait. I repeat this is NOT clickbait. My big toenail really did fall off in the middle of the night and it proves that I teetered underneath the “adulting” spectrum once again. I’m pretty okay with blood, heck sick doesn’t even bother me. I even have to pick up dog poo everyday of my life because I own a dog but nothing could prepare me for the immense wave of nausea that would overcome me when my toe nail decided to half hang on for dear life in the early hours on Monday morning.

    Firstly, merry Christmas. I hope the big man in a red suit brought you everything your hearts desired. I’m still feeling in the giving mood today so stay with me here.

    With another year under my belt with this little blog, there have been many photos posted on here and on Instagram. But, let’s face it, you only see the best of the best (well, the best of a bad bunch) because I want you to see everything in a not-so disgusting light. So when I am eventually being normal you get to see that side of me. I thought it would be HI-larious of me to share some outtakes of the year. To be honest, you see a real serious side of me in my blog posts but truth be told, I’m never happier than sounding/looking like an idiot, making jokes and generally just having a LOL a minute at myself. So, let’s have a good ol’ laugh at my expense, seeing as it’s the season of goodwill and all that.

    OUR CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS | QUEENBEADY

    Processed with VSCO with hb2 preset

    The big day is very nearly upon us. The 25th December is for families and friends, oh and of course getting comatose on pigs in blankets! Christmas is always a strange one for me, some years I can’t wait for Father Christmas to arrive and some years I could quite easily hop on a plane and head off somewhere exotic with no tinsel in sight. Well, this year I fall in to the former category. Both sides of our family have very strong family bonds & it’s so nice to dedicate a full day to indulging and with those we love.

    AM I ADULTING #3 | QUEENBEADY

    (Firstly, oops. This post was meant to be posted last week to meet my “weekly deadline” – but hey, I was never good at sticking those anyway. So enjoy.)

    Last night I caved (FYI this was a week today.) I had caved in after 12 hours of sheer pain where I keeled over every time I moved a muscle. My period pains had just go too much. #LiveTweetYourPeriod and all that shit. I decided in a moments hurry that I needed a bath and an aspirin quick sharp (how adulty does that sound?) So, I ran this bath with all my radox goodies and sank in to a warm tub that didn’t scold me (I’d finally mastered the right bath water temperature. Adulting never looked so good, right?)

    If I’m sat upright on a sofa, watching TV, you can bet your bottom dollar that I will fall asleep at the most ridiculous times of day. And I can also put a huge wager on the fact that if I get in to bed to go to sleep at night, I will lay they for quite some time, tossing and turning until I manage to actually fall asleep. It’s what we call  on this day and age, “sods law.” My life pretty much consists of ironic things like this each day. LOL for me.
