I have the best


My hubby is the best He's always been there to support,love and thrive with me. I can tell him anything,cry scream shout let every thing out.. My hubby is everything I like in a person wrapped up in a tall dark and handsome package. He's my best friend, my lover, and my soul mate. He is kind and sensitive, but kicks butt when it's needed and brave. He is intelligent, but can laugh at himself. We have fun sitting on the couch laughing at each other. We are self proclaimed dorks and we're proud of it. I'm so overjoyed we found each other.I believe in karma. I believe that good things will happen to you if you have shown kindness to others. However, I am not necessarily a good girl. I have created havocs here and there, but still God gave me the best man ever as my husband. My husband is the husband that anyone can wish for.My husband is la crème de la crème! I am very fortunate having this man in my life. For me, he is the best husband in the world.

Have some thought .... please....


I really dont mind people having a drink or being a bit drunk, it seems the season for it, and its not because I dont drink any more that i have a bit of a bug bare.. I just think that some people -neighbours who wont be named- should have a bit more respect for there other neighbours.. 320am and I was woken with shouting screaming and intense laughter.. of course me being me looked out and saw the neighbours very drunk and all over and I got bk into bed thinking ok thay will go inside in a moment.. Oh how wrong i was 20 minutes later and there still shouting screaming .. If it was earlier I dont think I would of cared as much but for it to be so god dam late/ early morning then I do have a anst . I was fast asleep dreaming of all things delightful to be woken with a start. I know that I am not the only person thay woke as i did here my direct neighbour getting up and also heard him shout something to them, to witch thay just waved. All I want to say is yes enjoy this time of year, get drunk if you wish but if you live in a small street have thought for other people.. this lil chic is very tired and im just hoping upon hope I can fall back to sleep for a few more hours.. so with that good night one and all

Jack frost is about


Oh my wordy the cold weather is hitting in the UK, most parts of the uk are getting snow and ice and frost, here in Hull its just bloody cold. I havent been well for a couple of days so heating has been on to the max and my thickest pjs and bed socks have kept me warm. Plus the temp I had I dont think I would of noticed the cold. but as im getting better im feeling it..

Have I Mentioned I Hate Cold Weather?



If only we could have that without intense cold, I'd be a happy camper! I hate cold weather. Having to get wrapped up in layer upon layer jumper after jumper and finding hats gloves scarfs to keep you warm from the outside world I hate to pay heating bills. I hate to scrape frost off my windshield. I love the getting in and getting warm with blankets and mugs of hot chocolate in front of the fire but why do we have to have such horrid winters esp round christmas time, here in the UK we are having gale force winds rain hail stones and now I hear snow... I want it to be summer, I am begining to feel like a snow-woman even when im inside as the temp drops so quickly.. yes I know I moan a lot but ohhhhhhh BEING ON SUMMER... then you watch ill be to hot lol.. This weather not only brings illness and stupidity on the roads but also brings the energy companys in to over drive extra profit with the cost of gas and electric now.. RIGHt im stopping my rant because I can feel my temper raising

I hate christmas shopping


Seriously I’m so over it! I started this shit today and as far as I am concerned thats it.. I am borderline ready to scream. Physically going shopping with my sister in law 2 sets of twins and the buggy is an absolute NO NO so I’m doing it all online in future.. The shops was just border line craziness. Dont get me wrong I love giving gifts and seeing there faces and reactions.. esp my nepthews and neiceys and of course my sons.. I do like christmas even though at present im feeling rather bah humbug about the whole thing but its the Christmas shopping. I hate shopping during Ordinary Time but shopping in the advent to Christmas and having to shop while fighting through heaving crowds of psychopaths appeals to me even less. If only I’d done what those organised people do and started my Christmas shopping in early July, when the shops were empty and everyone else was splashing around on beaches and at music festivals in Spain, having BBQs, spending the nights out and about in the city and generally leading a carefree existence. Look who is laughing now. The insanity begins as soon as you step in tp a heaving shop where thay are playing cheesy christmas songs, rather than getting me jolly has the oppisite effect, its when anyone with two brain cells to rub together will stay the hell away from anything resembling a retail store. Somehow, though, the idiots come out in force every year. And there's no let-up until at least the second week of January, because even after Christmas, people return their shitty gifts (see below). And it's not as if the Christmas shopping season begins in November you start seeing Christmas commercials and store decorations as early as October. Witch annoys me why so early !!!! And theres always a the smug bitch who has all her shopping done by July. That's not misogynist: It's always women who shop this far in advance. Now, so as not to irk those (women) who conscientiously buy their Christmas gifts a little at a time during the year: I am speaking here of the ones who can't resist telling you, "Oh, I got all my shopping done before July." In other words: It's fine by me if they do it; I just don't want to hear it. Because it makes me want to divide such people into 17 asymmetrical pieces. So for those people, some advice: If the topic comes up ... lie. Claim that you're even farther behind on your shopping than the rest of us. That's the best gift you can give your friends.

Its raining and its Sunday, enjoy the simplicity of this day..


Ah Sunday...a day of rest...
REST of the laundry, REST of the house and REST of all the other crap I put off on Saturday! Sunday is my official LAZY DAY! To me I believe Sundays are made for coffee, sleeping in, afternoon naps, cuddles and not thinking about Monday! And with it raining its a stay in your pj's and not do shit kinda of day!!! I just love sundays , esp when it rains, get the duvet out stay in pjs and a huge cup of coffee and to top an ideal sunday some good ole black n white miss marples on the tv... How good is that !!! I feel all toastie esp on sundays when the weather is like this gives you a warm fuzzyness.. another reason i like rainy sundays is they make you want to cuddle up on the couch and sleep the day away! really all I have to say on this short sunday blog is I LOVE SUNDAY RAIN!! The dark sky, thunder, and the smell!.. SUNDAY RAINY DAYS make me HAPPY!!!

We are the music makers

As im sat watching the final of the x-factor and the final 3 contestants sing with there judges. im really thinking that these contestants are far more better than there *super star singing * mentors... Now ive quite liked kelly rowlands voice but 3 times ive watched her live and her voice is a bit erm screachy, im sure some of you out there will be shouting at me but just my opinion... well no matter now who sings there all good but i do hope that lil mix (all girl group) win as weve never had a girl group win come girlssssss GIRL POWER ...

Music can be your soul


I listen to music all the time, there dosent have to be a reason i just love music, I think most people would agree how important music is to them, it does not matter what kind of music a person likes,as long as music helps them,that"s what counts. 1 song can make you happy another makes you remmember years gone by others can make you sad. music touches us all in so many differant ways. When I listen to my music I take on the emotion of the song. I am constantly listening to music, even if it's just in my head. I listen to music that fits my mood, music that speaks to me. If someone says something, I can usually associate a song with it. I listen to all kinds of music and I go through stages. I used to love hardcore rock, then moved on to punk, then alternative, and now I love relaxed sweet sad fun music.. here is 10 songs I so RECOMMEND to listen to..

1* Video games - Lana Del Rey
2* Please please please - Slow moving Mollie
3* Ed Sheernan - Lego House
4* Ed Sheernan - A-team
5* Birdy - Skinny love
6* Charlene Soraia - Where ever you go
7* Regina Spektor - Us
8* A Fine Frenzy - You Picked Me
9* Mumford and Sons - Little Lion Man
10* Adele - Someone Like You

There is so many songs i could say go listen to, but then my blog would be just one very long list but listen and maybe give me some feed back into what you think. but enjoy and as you do i am off to listen to some more music and sing like a strangled cat

Hallelujah - My cleaning frenzy is back




Oh yes you hear me Hallelujah.. the cleaning fairy came to me today and give a right good knock on the head with her wand. I was cleaning like a woman possessed and very very happy doing so my cleaning mojo is back with a vengance..I LOVE TO CLEAN! No seriously, I do. You know some of you have the same "clean little secret." Admit it, you're out there, just too ashamed to show your face. Today, much is said about being active outside the home, well there is nothing wrong in being active inside the home. So come out of the closet and fess up. don't know where it came from, for as long as I can remember, cleaning has been one of my passions. In my teenage years, during summer holidays I can't really explain why, I love to clean so much. For one thing I am restless, I can't sit still for long. Another thing, I just love to see a sparkling clean area. After cleaning an area, I love to stand back and admire my handiwork. Now, I know some of youcan identify with that. Cleaning is also cathartic. When I want to solve a particular tough problem, I find a tough job to do. Although the problem does not necessarily have to be tough, sometimes I just need to think deeply, and cleaning helps me do that. When I'm in a zone, cleaning zone that is, I'm so into it that I go to a different place, and if someone walks upon me, I'm totally unaware to the extent that I nearly jump out of my skin when I become aware of their presence. Yeah, it's that serious at times. Cleaning is also good for mild depression, because it takes the focus off you and directs your energies elsewhere. Say, I guess I just explained why I love to clean. Try it, you might find that you will get the same satisfaction that. When I was a bit poorly and then my mojo went i was begining to think I would go into melt down but I have seen the light or should I say the sharp end of the cleaning fairys wand and my cleaning FRENZY is back.

O dear, what can the matter be? Dear, dear, what can the matter be?


REALLy where is my energy today all i have done is hoover and dust and mop floor this for me is slacking in a major way, I didnt even get changed from my pjs oh woe is me. I really do wish an energiser bunny would come along and zap me or if i could share one of my 3 cats hyperness. I have been productive in the sense i got some thing done and also finished a mission on fronterville, a game i play on facebook. Maybe this is the problem!! after being poorly I have fallen for the dreaded FB CURSE where you cant keep away from the screen and have to keep up with the jone's on missions.. oh i really dont know what it is, but im HAPPY and thats the main thing I just need some hyperness to hit me.. My sis in law said " well you are 31 now Ali, getting older" thanks for that im not on the edge of old age just yet. i think some yoga like i use to do maybe a good way to go and more walking like i use to.. if all else fails ill drink redbull (well it gives you wings) that way ill be flapping away

Lazyness at its bestI


Im becoming very good at being lazy, after having my 2 wisdom teeth out then getting nasty infection in the gums dry socket - OUCH OUCH - ive rested.. maybe ive had to much rest.. Any one who knows me knows im a neat tidy freak lv my house being tidy n clean but the past 2 days of me having no pain ive still got no gt up n go witch when it comes to cleaning is shocking.. Whats up with me did the dentist drain my o.t.t of my cleaning habbits or am i just getting better super slow.. What ever it is im giving lazyness a run for its money, ive always had a lil nap in the afternoon more out of habbit than any thing else, but now I just want to sleep all day no energy no umpth.. the house is ok and I have done the bare essentials but nothing major.. Tommorow I am determand that my neat freakness will be bk .. i think i am going to have to drink many red bulls but it will happen - I HOPE -

A huge eye opener


Most of us value a roof over our head more than anything else. For two million families in Britain today this is at best a dream - they can't find a decent place to live at all.So it seems crazy that right now there are roughly a million empty homes in the UK - and 350,000 of those have been empty for more than six months.This summer (2011), architect and TV presenter George Clarke began to investigate Britain's housing crisis and set out across the UK to discover why hundreds of thousands of properties were lying empty. As i watched last night disbelief set in.. It is a national disgrace that this is happening in the UK in 2011 especially as there are so many empty houses being allowed to decay when, as you rightly say, with a little investment they could be brought back to life and give a family a secure, safe and affordable home. I am so pleased that someone has decided to tackle this problem as the government don't seem able to find a solution. Well done George. And it bloody infuriates me that the government has no money to do up 1 million empty homes but has 80 million to spend on just the opening ceremony for the olympics! Disgusted? Just a bit!! how about if councils do a U-turn and cancel demolision works...but re-aquire the empty,run down properties and then work with new prospective tenants and split the renovation costs between themselves??...I.E...if i needed a property for myself and family..and was asked to contribute funds towards doing a property up,and to help with the works,getting hands-on involvement...i'd been on it in a flash!!....perhaps this idea could also be addressed??We live in a mad, mad world wherein money comes first. The needs of 'ordinary' people are 'secondary'. Will we ever have a Government that restores our faith in those who so govern us? or will we continue to watch the division and destruction of those most in need. We CAN afford war, but not housing!. Money for warfare? there appears to be a plentiful supply, Question: Money for homes? Answer NO! Question: HOW SO?, WHY SO? WHY NOT? It was with out doubt an eye opener! the way the councils are funding all these empty houses, loosing revenue and then you get the government promising to provide affordable housing!!!! What a complete and utter waste of resources!!No wonder the country is in a financial state and has so many famlies without homes!! George you have highlighted just how wasteful our govenment are. This state of affairs,loss of revenue for our councils has only lead to the government now tightening their belts and making cuts, surely if they get rent for all those thousands of houses we could save one or two jobs!!? and families could have homes to live in. I I'm seething like you. Red tape and wasted resources.?Labour! M.P's sitting in their ivory towers. councils squandering taxpayers money. All parties! we waste so much money on follies. I.e. Olympics. And its time these disgusting landlords were prosecuted. The council ' checkers ' should be ashamed of themselves. Guess its too disgusting for their posh noses to stop long.??? They used be held responsible too for their obvious failings. Lets hope the powers that be, wake up, and see the opportunity to get the building trade back on its feet.
apprenticeships in all trades an opportunity. this cannot be missed.
oh wake up central government! go George I am sure the country is behind you i feel I need to stop now or my rant may go on forever.. if any wants to join the debate press on this --> The Great British Property Scandal

Coffee is my liquid sanity


I love my coffee! Morning, noon and yes, even at night as well. There is nothing like having a coffee in my coffee cup. And you may think I am a coffee addict, I would like to point out im not Its my aroma therapy.. So you can only imagine my horror to me waking up to no coffee what so ever in the house.. it was like my eyes where open but my brain was closed for repairs, you see Coffee is a necessity of life. In order for those around me to live through the morning I must have my coffee! eventually I got my coffee (yeeeeeeey) the world is now safe and i must say drinking my coffee,is like I'm in an Herbal Essence commercial. Ahh, Ohh, Mmmmmmm, Yes, Yes Yes!!!

Why do people ask silly questions !!

was at Pets at home buying a bag of Purina dog food for my dog , in the check-out line a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. Why else would I be buying dog chow, RIGHT ??? So on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Purina Diet again, and that I probably shouldn't, because I ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in intensive care, with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a Perfect Diet and all you do is load your pockets with Purina Nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in line was now enthralled with my story.) Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care, because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off a curb to sniff a poodle's butt and a car hit me. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. Better watch what you ask me and be prepared for my answer. I have all the time in the world to think of crazy things to say....

Lazy saturday with my hubby and then tonights x-factor

Up to now ive had a very lazy saturday with my hubby watching tv and lounging witch I think at the minute I could turn into an olympic sport (im still ikky) and im waiting to watch my Miss Marples.. i have an ongoing love of any thing Agatha Christie.. but the big MUST WATCH is the xfactor tonight - the semi finals.. been watching it from the begining and each week brings a new a new rant witch my hubby finds funny. I do admit i get pretty god dam angry and explain to the t.v as though it understands me that I would be a far much better judge lol.. So tonight we have our munchies and get prepared for my bursts of anger.. i'd like to see either amelia or littlemix winning. marcus is a great performer, but i don't see him as a great recording artist hes a good singer and he will go far but maybe im drawn to Amelia more as she is slightly rockish and me being a rock chic im swayed and lil mix well its about time a girl group won, GIRL POWER lol.. The person i dont want to get into the semi finals is Misha B, misha will never win (i hope).... she has been in the bottom 2 too many times, should have gone ages ago. no matter how good her voice is, i can't look at her without thinking she is fake, as she comes across so sweet and innocent on stage, and behined closed doors she is somebody else! glad tulisa exposed her for who she really is. But i feel the producers want her and marcus in and as i have said many many times its turning into xfactor. Even me thinking that i watch it every week i must be a gluton for punishment...

Sat with that puzzled look

Im enjoying blogging even tho it is day one but been looking at my own profile (no im not vain) in a some what puzzled look and my breathing gets heavy when i concentrate,im sure my hubby thinks im darth vader lol.. wondering why my 1st blog is higlited white.. never mind i suppose i pressed some thing i am not up tp date on these things and searching for apps that i think suitable for my pg.. wonder if any of you out there have had mishaps when 1st blogging. in time i will learn what im doing but in the mean time im enjoying the bloggyness

ON GOING DAYS AT THE DENTIST


So the  emergancy dentist i saw on sunday had left my root and part of my tooth in my gum so i went to my own dentist thay took it out  but because of where it was its painfull was crying when painkillers and injections thay gave started wearing off not feelin at all well and lets just say the bathroom became  my new best friend. then had to bk as -got a really odd liquid coming out my gum and mad pains i have what thay call a dry socket-bad infection so on stronger painkillers and antibiotics now also thay had to wash gum out and put a gel in so my gum can start to heal quicker..the amount of times ive been im thinking of taking shares out in the practice lol..i was throwing up with liquid and taste in my mouth the pain was un real but pain killers salt mouth wash and my medicated mouth wash are easing pain.. all being well the pain killers and antibiotics im taking will get it healed quicker.. the dentist looked at me and said u are in the wars, my grandad had many probs with his teeth and a problem where his gums attacked his teeth thay think i may have that as looking at my teeth just normally theres nothing wrong.. but i can say that i feel better than i have been
