Photo catch -up!

Me and G, took me the whole day to convince him to let me paint his face then he couldn't stay still long enough for me to finish it! Ah well!

So, I haven't blogged in a while.  I haven't been in the mood for it so I didn't do it just for the sake of posting crap that you wouldn't want to read! I've been busy with my little men and doing plenty of baking! This post will mainly be just a few catch up photos!

So, as you can see October has been a hectic month!

FOTD and some baking!!

I've been threatening to buy some new proper food colouring for a long time so I finally bought some from http://stuff4cakes.ie/ and I'm delighted with them! I got 3 food colouring pastes, red, hydrangea (a blue green colour) and mint.  I also got some edible Ben 10 decorations and 2 new edible glitters, a royal blue one and a beautiful multicolour one!  I was really pleased with how fast they were delivered too, I ordered on Tuesday night and they arrived on Thursday morning!  I will definitely be ordering some more bits and pieces soon!!

I was in hospital today for PUVA round 13 and my session lasted 1 min 16 seconds!!!!!!!  I'm getting a lovely tan now and gone so freckly!!! When I got home from the hospital I put some makeup on and I used my Inglot palette and one of my Catrice eyeshadows.  I've been using the Catrice Lash Growth serum and mascara for the last week and maybe its all in my head but I think my lashes are FINALLY starting to grow back properly and thicken up!!

You can't really see the glitter very well here but its looks so cute in real life!

Thanks again for reading and staying in touch with my journey!! I never thought I would be writing about makeup, baking and cancer but thems the breaks I suppose!!

Happy Birthday Mammy!

Today is my mammy's birthday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARIE!!!!

Yesterday I went to hospital for my light treatment and myself and Sam (and Callum) took a detour to Dundrum on the way home as mammy had given me some money as an early birthday present to buy myself an Inglot palette!! I LOVE Inglot eyeshadows!  

Ryan is still sick but seems to be in better form than he was but now Aaron is sick too!! Hopefully they'll be back to normal soon!! :(

This is just a quick post with some pics of my makeup from yesterday and today, using my new palette and some pictures of the shadows I picked! I'm sorry I haven't a clue of the numbers of the numbers!!

Coffee cake I made for mammys birthday!

Look how brown I am from my light treatment! First EVER tan!

Washout!!

I'm starting to get sick of this weather!!! Its absolutely LASHING rain and its just miserable out!  Myself and Aaron done some more baking today, we made a fruit loaf, doughnuts and gingerbread men! They're all edible anyway, it was the first time we had ever made both the loaf and the doughnuts!  My sitting room is finally getting plastered, 6 years after moving into the house I will have a windowsill at last!! I'm not really in a typing mood today, really tired after my hospital visits yesterday! I got on very well though, my oncologist was really happy with how I'm doing and she doesn't want to see me until next May and my dermatologist agreed that my skin was too bad to be using creams any more so I'm going to be starting light treatment soon, twice a week for about 3 months so I'm going to be doing plenty of travelling on the bus in the near future!!  I don't know if it will work or not because its about 25 years since I've had light treatment for my psoriasis so fingers crossed because it has me tormented to the last at this stage! Its horrible to have to wear long sleeves when the sun is shining and everybody else is going around in shorts and vest tops! Wouldn't you think I've been cursed enough in my 30 years on this planet!!
Hope you all have a good weekend and lets hope the weather picks up soon!!

Today I'm wearing Collection 2000 'Magical' eyeshadow and Sleek 'Spellbound' eyedust!

It looks so much better in real life! My camera doesn't seem to pick up the shimmer in the gold at all!

Fruit Cake!
