how i pamper my sick self!

hey everyone!
 
I really wanted to blog weeks ago but of course the winter bugs just wouldn't leave me alone this year, as they do every year, so I basically just couldn't get started.
poor excuse I know but I'm ready to get back into things and take them more seriously.
 
it came to me yesterday that loads of people, the same as me are sick or get sick a lot during the cold winter months and this its just my little guide and ideas so perk yourself up and beat the winter blues.
 
so first things firsts, if you don't have to be anywhere, SLEEP IN!
there's nothing that makes me feel better is laying in bed a little longer when I feel poorly.
 
 
okay so when I pull myself out of bed, which when I'm sick is usually around half 9 (just in time for Jeremy Kyle, aww yeahh)
winter is my porridge season, or oatmeal depending on what you call it.
so I start my morning off with a small bowl of that with a cup of tea.
putting your tea in a cute cup is nice too, mines reads to a very special sister, which I am. cups don't lie. now go sit down watch some jezza and relax.
 
so even though we feel horrible we still have to wash our faces and get washed and all that bathroom stuff, but I think doing a face mask when your sick is a nice little pick me up you can add in to your normal routine. I've chosen the seaweed clay mask from the body shop. I highly recommend for oily skinned guys and girls like myself.
I also used the seaweed deep cleansing face wash and the vitamin c cleansing polish, both by body shop also.


 
my next step, put your feet up, grab a blanket, a book, the TV remote, a family sized bag of Doritos, a tub of Ben and Gerry's, everything you need to get comfy and relaxed. 
this is the perfect time to catch up on TV shows too, my recommendations are covert affairs, gossip girl and my all time favourite love, criminal minds. if your not familiar, then why?. go Google it now then continue reading... okay done? good.
I picked my Miranda Hart book and a hot water bottle as my comfort items.
 

 
cant forget to mention, this is my hot water bottle, his name is Louis Spence giraffe. (a small inside joke with my family). I just thought he was too cute not too talk about

also do you like my in-between leg shot, (so seductive).
 


 
watching Disney movies always make me feel better so take your pick, get comfy and watch your childhood favourite movie. my personal favourite is Monsters Inc. I loved it too death, still do of course. my favourite princess was/is snow white. no clue why, the step mum scared me half to death whenever I watched it but I was such a hardcode fan I didn't let it stop me (holds for applause at my six year old bravery). I loved it so much i got the snowwhite costume for Christmas one year but it was to small so we exchanged it for a massive grumpy stuffy, later to have my little brother mash a banana into his beard and pee on him. yes. pee. pee.



 
I love a bubble bath, its just the perfect end to a day and they always perk me up.
im currently trying out the soap and glory bath float, I really like it so far. also the flake away I think it is body scrub. and that nivea shower cream is so good, highly recommend!
also get a cute dressing gown cause how down wanna look cute getting out the bath?.
 
I hope this made your day slightly better, these things always help me cheer up.
also if you are having a sick day today then I hope you feel better soon!
 
kisses xoxo
